Panel Organization
LCD Button Array
The NV9616 has 16 LCD button units. The NV9608 has 8. Each unit comprises a large LCD button
and a small ‘Take’ button below the LCD button. The LCD buttons each have 3 lines of text (up to
8 characters per line). The lines of the button are labeled “S,” “P,” and “D” on the panel:
In multi-destination mode, the 3 lines of text display status (S), preset (P), and destination (D),
respectively. If breakaway applies to that destination, the status apppears in reverse text. A button
can display other messages in other contexts.
Under each LCD button is a smaller white ‘Take’ button. Pressing the take button executes a take
for the selected destination. The methods for selecting destinations and sources for the take are dif-
ferent in X-Y mode and multi-destination (MD) mode.
The LCD button array represents:
• Destinations (in multi-destination mode). The panels provide support for up to 512 MD destina-
tions. You can select different “pages” of destinations using the scroll buttons.
• Levels (in X-Y mode). The button at the top left represents the selected destination. The
remaining 15 buttons (or 7 buttons on the NV9608) buttons represent the levels of the selected
destination.
• Menu functions (in menu mode). Some of the LCD buttons execute menu functions.
• Salvos (in salvo mode). The panels provide support for system salvos and local salvos on multi-
ple pages of salvo buttons. You can select a “page” of salvos using the scroll buttons.
