Operation
Operating Concepts
 Protects apply to selected levels in single-destination mode with breakaway.
 The NV9607 provides no explicit indication, during operation, whether a destination is
locked or unlocked.
X Destination Shift
The ‘Destination Shift’ button toggles between the first and second destination sets (which are
available only in limited X-Y mode).
When you press a ‘Destination’ button, it will select the destination from the chosen set.
The names of destination devices appear in the ‘Destination’ display.
S, B, X Free Source
The button selects a pre-defined phantom device that can be used to release or “free” devices
on the data (machine control) level. A free source is also used with tielines to free the tieline for
others to use. The actual free source used is defined in the NV9000 configuration.
Use this button as if it were a source button.
B, X Hold
The button is a toggle; press it once to place the panel in “hold mode.” Press it again to cancel
“hold mode.” (The panel might or might not be configured to power up in hold mode.)
In single-destination mode with breakaway, this button retains breakaway levels after a take.
In limited X-Y mode, this button allows you to perform a gang (or “dub”) switch. In hold mode,
destination selections are cumulative, and not mutually exclusive. See
Hold on page 35.
The ‘Destination’ field of the display shows the most recently selected destination under hold
mode.
The button definition has no fields to configure.
All Information
The ‘Information’ button presents auxiliary information on the alphanumeric display. The infor-
mation button is inactive (dark) unless there is information to display.
B, X Level
The button selects a level.
The button exists only when your panel is configured for single-destination mode with break-
away. Presumably, it will have several level buttons, one for each level you need to control.
You will select one or more levels for a breakaway and then press a source button to complete
the take. When all level buttons are deselected, or when all level buttons are selected, a take is
“all-level.” When one or more level buttons are selected, a take occurs on just those levels.
You must select levels before selecting the source.
The color of the level buttons reflect the levels of the current destination in a limited way.
