    NV9603 User’s Guide Configuration Tasks The person configuring an NV9603 panel will want to consider how best to use the buttons to support the devices and routers in the router control system at hand. Trade-offs must be made. In support of that effort, the configurer will do the following: •...

  • Page 30 Configuration Button Types Type Description Destination The button sets or removes a “lock” on the current destination device. The Lock lock can be removed only by the user (at this panel or at another) that originally set the lock, or by a panel that has “Force Release” enabled. The button definition has no fields to configure.
  • Page 31 NV9603 User’s Guide Type Description Level The button selects a level. The button definition has one field to configure: the level. (Do not choose ‘None’ for the level.) Your panel can have multiple level buttons, one for each level you want the operator to control.

When the operator finds the salvo of interest, he or she presses the ‘Take’ button to execute the salvo.
  • Page 34: Single-Destination Configuration

    Configuration Single-Destination Configuration Type Description Take In normal mode, a take button routes the preset source to the selected destination on selected level or levels. In salvo mode, a take button executes a selected salvo. A take button is disabled (and dark) until it is possible for the operator to execute a take.
  • Page 35: Operation

    Operation Chapter 5 provides operating instructions for the NV9603 control panel. Summary Summary ................25 Operating Concepts .
  • Page 36: Single-Destination Operation

    Operation Secondary Modes Takes generally occur from a single source to a single destination. Destinations are selectable. Takes are all level unless your panel has level buttons. If your panel has level buttons, you can select the level(s) on which the take is to occur. The sources of levels not selected remain unchanged.
  • Page 37: Operating Concepts

    NV9603 User’s Guide Buttons are also color-coded to a limited degree. Green represents sources. Amber represents destinations. Those colors are used for other functions, however. High-tally (bright) buttons are those that are selected; low-tally (dim) buttons are those that are not selected.
  • Page 38: Making A Category Selection

    Operation Source and Destination Modes The panel’s category buttons will probably be labeled. It is up to you, the operator, to understand the labels. Making a Category Selection 1 Put the panel in source mode or destination mode as required. (Note: you must select a destination first, then the source, then press ‘Take’—...
  • Page 39: Level Selection

    NV9603 User’s Guide A breakaway is where you take different sources to the same destination — on different levels. In most cases, you would take only certain levels of a new source to a destination that already has a source on its various levels. It is not possible to take different sources to the destination on the same level.
  • Page 40: Category

    Operation Buttons Category A category button has 3 functions: • Select a source category and initiate device selection for that category. • Select a destination category and initiate device selection for that category. • During the process of device selection, add a suffix to the pending device name. A category button can provide any or all of these functions.
  • Page 41: Destination

    NV9603 User’s Guide Destination The button selects a destination. The destination name appears in the ‘Destination’ display. The destination is the target of an upcoming take, which will route a source to that destination. A destination button represents two destinations. The destination selected when you press the button is affected by whether your panel has a ‘Destination Shift’...
  • Page 42: Destination Mode

    Operation Buttons Destination Mode The ‘Destination Mode’ button places the panel in destination mode, where category selection buttons select destination categories. If the panel is not in destination mode, it is in source mode, where category buttons select source categories. Note that not all category buttons necessarily select categories.
  • Page 43: Page Down

    NV9603 User’s Guide Page Down The button scrolls down. The meaning of scrolling varies with context: • Scrolling devices within a category: ‘Page Down’ moves to the next lower device in the category’s device list. (Example: if the current device is CAM_4, the next lower device would probably be CAM_3, subject to the device definitions in the NV9000 configuration.) Scrolling devices is possibly only when a category selection is in progress.
  • Page 44: Previous Source

    Operation Buttons Previous Source The button presets the previously routed source to the currently selected destination. To restore the previous route, you must next press ‘Take’ assuming you have not changed the destination. This function is useful when you make a route in error. The button does not restore the previous destination.
  • Page 45: Source Mode

    NV9603 User’s Guide Source Mode The ‘Source Mode’ button places the panel in source mode, where category selection buttons select source categories. If the panel is not in source mode, it is in destination mode, where category buttons select destination categories. Note that not all category buttons necessarily select actual categories.
  • Page 46: Locks And Protects With Breakaway

  • Page 48: Performing A Broadcast Take

    Operation Data Routing Performing a Broadcast Take Follow these steps: 1 Select a destination and route a source to it. The source becomes the master because the router is in data forward mode. This destination is the slave and communicates bidirectionally with the master on the machine control level.
  • Page 49: Semi-Automatic Data Routing

    NV9603 User’s Guide Semi-Automatic Data Routing A take involving a source or a destination having a machine control level might not occur immediately if the source or destination device is in use. This option applies in all operating modes. If neither device is “in use” the take occurs immediately. Otherwise, you need to press the source button again to complete the take.
  • Page 50: Menu Mode

    Operation Menu Mode The salvo button places the panel in salvo mode where you can scroll through the panel’s salvo list. When you find the salvo of you choice, press the ‘Take’ button to execute the salvo. After the salvo executes, the panel returns to its normal mode. Press the salvo button again while the panel is in salvo mode to reset the salvo selection to nothing.
