Software Configuration
Because monitor wall switching is initiated by the iMC panel, monitor wall configuration
belongs mostly within the MCS Panel Configuration Editor.
A brief summary of iMC panel configuration is given here, but please refer to the iMC panel
publications listed under
Applicable Publications and Tools on page 3 for more detail.
 Modify these settings carefully for every iMC panel. If your system has more than one
monitor wall, each one has a distinct set of router destinations.
Monitor Wall Source Group Configuration
A monitor wall typically displays all of the sources from a panel’s current source group.
Open the MCS Panel Configuration Editor, choose a panel, and then go to the ‘Monitor Wall’
page:
Fig. 5-38: iMC-Panel Configuration tool - Xpt buttons, Destination IDs
Assign NV9000 destination IDs for each source button (labeled “XPT buttons” here) for which
you want the source to appear on the monitor.
 All the NV9000 destinations (i.e., router outputs) you choose here must, of course, be physi-
cally connected to the same monitor wall.
 It is easier to make these assignments when the MCS Panel Configuration Editor is
“attached” to the NV9000 system. Check the box on the ‘NV9000 Settings’ page.
For example, the largest source group for an iMC-Panel-300 might have 16 sources, so you
would assign 16 destination IDs. (Remember that there must also be 16 physical connections.)
Whenever the panel operator changes to another source group, the panel causes appropriate
router switches to these destinations so that the monitor wall follows the source group
selection.
 Note: For any “holes” within the currently selected source group, the monitor wall will
receive the black/silence source defined in the Imagestore 750’s ‘router sources’ configura-
tion. See
Router Sources on page 85 for details.
Typically, the monitor wall
displays all sources from
the current source group
for the Imagestore 750
that is currently owned by
the panel. The router
destinations configured
here are used for this
purpose.
