Configuration
Button Definitions
Single-Destination “Mode”
The panel, when it is in server mode, is — by definition — a single-destination panel. (The desti-
nation is defined as a panel option at configuration.)
 This does not contradict the idea that the server can assign destinations to its associated
NV9648 clients.
The panel, in either LCD XY/MD or NV9609 mode, can be configured as a single-destination
panel by defining a default destination during configuration and providing no destination
selection buttons.
Other more complex forms of “single-destination mode” are conceivable.
Multi-Destination Configuration
Multi-destination (MD) devices are a subset of all destination devices. You can configure a panel
to have from 8 to 512 MD destinations in increments of 8 destinations. Not all of those need be
used. Those that are not used are considered “undefined.”
 It is possible to have duplicate entries in the MD destination set. For example, it might be
useful to have one or two MD destinations visible at all times.
 You should make sure your configuration includes a ‘Page Up’ and a ‘Page Down’ button if
the operator will be required to scroll through MD devices.
The limit to the number of MD devices is a panel option. If the limit is 64, for example, the
display can scroll through 8 pages of 8 rows, regardless of whether these rows have been
assigned a destination. Similarly, the operator could scroll through 4 pages of 16 selection
buttons.
How to Configure MD Devices
Follow these guidelines.
1 Go to the NV9649 configuration page of NV9000-SE Utilities.
2 Click any button in the panel image. In the button definition section, choose ‘Selection’ from
the drop-down list.
A ‘Display Index’ field and an ‘Edit Multi-Dest Devices’ button appear in the button definition
section.
