User’s Guide
Destination Protect
This button is a toggle that sets or clears a protect on the current destination device. The protect
can be removed at the panel that originally set the protect, at any panel that has the same user
ID, or by a forced release at any panel.
Note: a protect prevents others from routing to a destination; a lock prevents anyone
—
even
the user who issued the lock
—
from routing to the destination.
You may lock a protected destination, but you cannot change a locked destination to a
protected destination directly. You must first unlock it.
The NV9648 provides no explicit indication, during operation, whether a destination is
locked or unlocked.
[Forward]
This button displays and activates the next button page of an automatically generated list.
A forward button is never high-tally. A forward button is generated by the system when the
current page of a list has more than 25 or 26 elements. Forward buttons are always accompa-
nied by “back” buttons.
Hold
The ‘Hold’ button is a toggle. Press it once to activate “hold” mode, press it again to deactivate
“hold.” The button is high-tally when hold mode is active and low-tally when it is not.
You can activate or deactivate hold mode at any time during an MD selection or a breakaway
selection in X-Y mode. Your selection remains intact and the panel subsequently operates in
hold mode or non-hold mode according to the hold button state.
The default button text is “Hold Preset” but the button can have any legend.
MD Mode
In MD mode, turning hold mode on allows you to select more than one destination button at a
time. When you select a source, the source applies to all selected (high-tally) destinations. If hold
is still on when you press ‘Take’, the selected destinations remain selected and the display
reflects the selected destinations. The buttons for the selected destinations remain high-tally.
Without hold enabled, the panel has no destinations selected after an MD take and the buttons
for the selected destinations go low-tally.
When hold is active, all selected MD destinations get the source you selected most recently (in
case you change your mind and selected another source).
X-Y Mode
In X-Y mode, the hold button causes breakaway levels to be retained after a take. The levels you
selected (and deselected) remain lit (or unlit) as they were before the take.
Level Map
The ‘Level Map’ button cross-connects levels (typically in the same physical router). The function
is typically used to shuffle audio channels, for example, to connect AES1/2 to AES3/4.
The default button text is “Level Map” but the button can have any legend.
