rapidly between two sources at a particular destination. The chop interval is defined in the
NV9000 configuration. The default chop interval is 6 fields.

Menu Mode
The NV9605 enters menu mode if it has a menu button and you press the menu button.
 The menu uses some of the buttons on your panel. The legends and functions of these
buttons in normal operating mode do not apply while the panel is in menu mode.
While the panel is in menu mode, you will use the menu button to cycle through the various
parts of the menu. There are 8 parts:
• Panel ID•Panel name
• User ID•User name
• Software version•Boot version
• Application version•Low button illumination level
Configurers should ensure that the menu button is not part of the numeric keypad that
becomes available in the panel ID submenu. See
