Button definitions.

In this section, configurers make button assignments, using its pull-down menus and text
fields. See

Button Definition Section

, following.

Button page table.

This section displays a list of the individual pages of the tree structure. The button page at
the top of the list (or root of the tree) is called “Default.” See

Button Page List

on page 289.

GPIO definitions.

In this section, configurers may define GPIO logic. The control panel has a rear connector
that provides 4 relay outputs and 8 optically isolated inputs. See

GPIO

on page 197. (Note

that the graphical buttons represent connector terminals and not actual buttons.)

Panel options.

In this section, configurers may specify the behavioral characteristics of the panel. See the
NV9642 User’s Guide for detailed information.

Display options.

In this section, configurers may partially specify the behavior of the display when the panel
is in X-Y mode.

In X-Y mode, the display shows 3 lines of level information. (The display also scrolls by 3 lines
at a time.) The display options let you specify explicitly what levels appear on those 3 lines.
The specification applies, however, only to the first page of the level display.

You may leave any of the fields in this section blank. If you leave all 3 fields blank, the display
will present levels in their default order.

If you leave only one or two fields blank, those display lines will appear blank, while the line
for which you specified a level will show that level.
