Operation
Chapter 5 provides operating instructions for the NV9605 control panel.
Topics
This chapter is intended specifically for the NV9605 panel operator.
Summary
As an NV9605 operator, you will be confronted initially with a relatively small and simple panel
—
38 buttons with three 8-character displays.
The panel’s buttons can have arbitrary legends (using plastic inserts under the button caps). A
button’s legend should indicate its function. Some buttons can be applied differently in other
modes (such as menu mode). Operators and configurers will have to communicate about the
meaning of the buttons.
The alphanumeric display (3 lines of 8 characters) shows the status of completed takes under
normal circumstances. The display presents information or menu items in other cases. It also
displays the name of the currently selected page for sources or destinations. See
on page 5 for information.
Physically, you will find
•
Function buttons (e.g., switch source pages or lock a destination).
•
Source, destination, and salvo buttons.
•
Names of the selected destination and its current source.
At any particular time, some of the buttons are high-tally; some are low-tally; and some might
be undefined. Active buttons are of two colors, green and amber. Green generally represents
sources and source functions; amber generally represents destinations and destination func-
tions, but the colors are also used for other functions.
Please refer to the NV9000-SE Utilities User’s Guide (or the NV9000-SE Utilities help files) if you
are unfamiliar with the concepts used in this chapter.
