Panel Organization
Scroll Buttons
There are two scroll buttons (called ‘Page Up’ and ‘Page Down’ in the configuration software).
These buttons scroll either through pages of MD destinations or through pages of salvos. The scroll
buttons page through levels if you have more than 15 (or 7) levels defined.
Scrolling of MD destinations wraps around at the ends of the MD destination list if ‘Use Continu-
ous Scrolling’ is enabled. At the head of the list, ‘Page Up’ causes the last page to display. At the
end of the list, ‘Page Down’ causes the first page to display. If ‘Use Continuous Scrolling’ is not
enabled, the pages stop scrolling at the ends of the list.
Continuous scrolling is a panel default.
Continuous scrolling does not apply to the salvo list and does not apply to levels in X-Y mode.
Shortcut
In MD mode, the panel’s category buttons allow you to enter a page number for multi-destination
devices, instead of scrolling. This is a convenience
—
a shortcut that lets you avoid ‘Page Down’ or
‘Page Up’ button presses when you know the number of the page you want.
Note:
• The shortcut is available only when no category device selection is pending (in MD mode).
• Only category buttons that have single-digit suffixes are enabled.
• The shortcut is not available for salvo pages.
Function Buttons
The NV9616 and NV9608 have an array of 24 function buttons on the right.
Of those, 10 buttons, arranged like a telephone keypad, have fixed functions. These 10 buttons are
“category” buttons, representing category mnemonics or category suffixes or both:
The ordering of suffixes and mnemonics on these fixed buttons is arbitrary. See
on page 35 for more information.
The other 14 function buttons can be assigned any available function.
The set of available functions (28) is the same in X-Y mode and MD mode.
