User’s Guide
The button is a toggle: Press it once to make the source the master (it goes high-tally); press it
again to make the destination the master (the button is low-tally).
The ‘Source is Master’ button is also used to initiate “broadcast” machine control routes. See
Broadcast Routes on page 36.
During data level (i.e., machine control) takes, this button makes the source device the master.
Otherwise, the destination is the master.
The button is a toggle that reverses the direction of data routing. For example, if the destination
is the master and the source is the slave, pressing a ‘Source is Master’ button reverses their roles.
Pressing the button again reverses the roles.
The ‘Source is Master’ button is used to initiate “broadcast” control routes. See Broadcast Routes
on page 36.
The panel can be configured so that “source is master” is the default state or so that “destination
is master” is the default. The button still toggles between “source is master” and “destination is
master.”
 Pressing the ‘Source is Master’ button turns off the ‘Broadcast’ button and vice versa.
X, M Source Shift
The ‘Source Shift’ button toggles between the first and second source “pages.”
The button affects the operation of any source button (in any mode). Source buttons represent
two sources (and, in multi-destination mode, a destination). One source belongs to source
“page” 1 and the other belongs to source “page” 2.
Undefined
An undefined button cannot be used and appears dark (unlit) on the panel. The term “unde-
fined” has meaning primarily to the configurer.
Lock, Protect, and Release
In a multi-user system, routes made by one user can be made safe from being accidentally or
maliciously change by another user.
Definitions
Owner The user ID of a panel where a lock or protect was issued.
Source lock No one can use the source.
Source protect No one but the owner can use the source.
Destination lock No one can route to the destination.
Destination protect No one but the owner can route to the destination.
Release To remove a lock or protect.
Some control panels can lock or protect both sources and destinations. However, The NV9605
provides locks and protects for destinations only.
A forced release is when the lock or protect is removed by someone other than the owner. A
forced release can be performed:
• At any panel configured with release mode set to “forced release”.
• At any other panel with “force release” enabled.
