Operating Methods
Operating the NV9648 in either standalone mode or LCD XY/MD mode is straightforward. The
standalone model is simple; the LCD XY/MD model is complex.
The client model is also simple but not at all obvious because of the interaction between the
NV9649 and the NV9648s.
To summarize that interaction, the NV9649 can assign destinations to each of the individual
control units (9 buttons, 1 display) of the associated NV9648s. The NV9649 can also assign
sources to source buttons (or to quick source buttons) of the individual control units of the asso-
ciated NV9648s.
(The NV9649 button that applies in this interaction is the ‘Assign’ button. The NV9649’s knob can
be used to perform device selection by category. The NV9649 will have been configured in
“server” mode.)
This is a view of the NV9649 panel, identifying the different features that apply to client mode:
Client Model Procedures
Preset procedures, A and B, are used by the “Assign” procedures, C and D, following, next page.
Procedure A — Preset a Source Using the Knob
To preset a source in the preset display of the NV9649 (server):
1 Ensure that the NV9649 is in source mode. Press a ‘Source Mode’ button or press a ‘SRC/DST
Mode’ button when the panel is in destination mode.
2 Turn the knob on the NV9649, clockwise or counter-clockwise, to scroll through the catego-
ries that were configured for the panel.
3 When you reach the desired category, identified in the NV9649’s preset display, push the
knob. (You can feel it click.) The NV9649’s preset display will show the mnemonic of the
selected category.
4 Use the knob now to scroll through the devices in the category until you see the desired
device in the preset display. (Device names consist of the category mnemonic followed by a
(usually) numeric suffix.
5 At any time, you can press a ‘Clear’ button to erase the preset entry you have selected. You
might have to press ‘Clear’ more than once.
