Introduction
Panel Organization
The AC connector has a compartment in which you can find a spare fuse.
(The Ethernet port is 10baseT. The NV9000 supports 10baseT as well as 100baseT.)
Panel Organization
Function Buttons
The NV9604 has an array of 32 function buttons. There is a limited set of button functions when
the panel is stand-alone. When it is an NV9602 extension, the buttons’ functions are slightly
different in each of the 4 operating modes of the NV9602. (See
, next.)
When the panel is an NV9602 extension, source buttons represent one of two sets of sources.
Destination buttons (if present) represent one of two sets of destinations. The panel can be
configured with a ‘Source Shift’ button that toggles between the two source sets and a ‘Destina-
tion Shift’ button that toggles between the two Destination sets.
When the panel is stand-alone, each source button represents a single source and each destina-
tion button represents a single destination.
Each button has three operational levels: high and low tally (green or amber), and off. Config-
urers can adjust the high- and low-tally levels in increments of 10%. Buttons that are turned off
are said to be dark. (Physically, they are actually white or gray.)
Generally, green represents a source or a source function and amber represents a destina-
tion or a destination function.
The function buttons each have clear plastic keycaps under which you may place plastic inserts
for button legends. It is a simple matter to change button legends.
Modes of Operation
By itself, the NV9604 operates in one of 2 modes:
•
•
An NV9602 can operate in one of 4 modes:
•
•
Single-Destination Mode with Breakaway
•
•
As a NV9602 extension, the NV9604 can operate in any mode configured for the NV9602. The
NV9604 has limited use when the NV9602 is in multi-destination mode.
The modes (or behavioral models) are determined at configuration for both the NV9604 and the
NV9602. The operator cannot switch between different modes.
