Server Mode Panel Options - GRASS VALLEY NV9649 User Manual

Configuration
Configuration Page for the Server Model
Setup Name
When the panel is being configured for the server model and you have selected (clicked on)
one of the 12 buttons on the left side of the panel image, the 'Button Definitions' section
has an additional 'Setup Name' field.
This field is not present for the 16 buttons at the right side of the panel image. Nor is it
present for any of the other behavioral models.
The 12 buttons at the left become displayed when panel operator presses a 'Menu' button
and then presses the 'Manage Configs' button of the menu. Each of the 12 buttons
represents one of 12 sets of client assignments.
What is a set of client assignments?
Every time an operator assigns a destination to an NV9648 client or assigns a source to a
source button of a client, that assignment is recorded within the NV9000 system controller.
Therefore, if and when the system undergoes a power cycle, all of the assignments made
for the NV9648 clients are preserved. The typical NV9649-NV9648 configuration has
multiple NV9648s. The set of client assignments includes all source and destination
assignments to all NV9648s that are clients of the NV9649.
By pressing one of the 12 buttons (in the 'Manage Config' page of the panel's menu) an
operator can select one of 12 sets of client assignments. In the menu itself, a set of client
assignments is called a "set-up. " A NV9649 always has one default setup and may have up to
eleven other named setups. (It is the upper left button that is assigned to the default setup.)
By entering a name in the 'Setup Name' field for one of the 12 buttons (other than the
default button) you define a setup — that is, you create a name (and a resulting storage area
in the system controller) for the client assignments belonging to that setup. An operator
can choose this setup if the panel has a menu. Changes made to NV9648s are always
recorded into the chosen set of states. Other sets of states are not affected by changes
made to the currently chosen setup.
