This chapter is intended specifically for the NV9616 or NV9608 panel operator.
Summary
As an NV9616 or NV9608 operator, you will be confronted initially with a relatively complex
panel — 16 (or 8) LCD button units, 24 backlit function buttons, and 2 backlit scroll buttons.
The panel's function buttons can have arbitrary legends (using plastic inserts under the
button caps). A button's legend should indicate its function. Some buttons can be applied
differently in other modes (such as menu mode). Operators and configurers will have to
communicate about the meaning of the buttons.
The LCD buttons show the status of takes (pending or completed) under normal
circumstances. The LCD buttons present information or menu items in certain cases.
At any particular time, some of the buttons are enabled or disabled. Some are high-tally;
some are low-tally; and some might be undefined. Active function buttons are of two
colors, green and amber. Active LCD buttons are green, amber, yellow, or red. (Red indicates
a lock or a protect.)

Please refer to the NV9000-SE Utilities User's Guide (or the NV9000-SE Utilities help files)
if you are unfamiliar with the concepts used in this chapter.

Modes of Operation

The panels can operate in one of 2 modes:
• X-Y mode.

• Multi-destination mode.

The panels can be configured so that you can select either mode.
Multi-Destination Mode
The panel supports up to 512 MD destinations. The NV9616 displays 16 at a time on the LCD
buttons. The NV9608 displays 8 at a time.
