Summary
The NV9654
1
is a hierarchical control panel featuring 54 LCD function buttons (illuminated in
various colors and having 1 to 3 lines of text). The panel can be configured in either of two
behavioral modes:
•
All-Button mode
•
‘Display and Button’ mode
Under ‘Display and Button’ mode, the left-most 15 buttons function as an alphanumeric display.
These buttons display the same information as some other panels that have displays, such as
the NV9640. Under this mode, the panel operator can turn the “display” on and off. When the
display is off, the 15 buttons can have other configured functions.
Under ‘All-Button’ mode, the panel provides no display. Note that under ‘Display and Button’
mode, the panel has 3 additional button functions that relate to the display.
The panel can operate in X-Y mode or in multi-destination (MD) mode. Operators can switch
between modes at any time.
This 2RU panel is organized as shown in figures 2-1 and 2-2:
