Additional Modes
When the panel is operating under the LCD XY/MD model, the operator can switch the panel
between “X-Y mode” and multi-destination (MD) mode. In X-Y mode, the operator can perform
takes (and locks) on individually selected levels for a single destination at a time. In MD mode,
takes occur on all levels, but the operator can perform takes to multiple destinations
simultaneously.
Level Mode
When the panel is operating under the NV9609 model, operators can switch the panel in and
out of level mode (if the panel has a ‘Level Mode’ button). Level mode allows you to select one of
the destination’s levels (by scrolling). A take in level mode is a single-level breakaway.
When the panel is not in level mode, takes occur on either all levels or selected levels of the
current destination. Takes on all levels are said to be “all level.” If the panel has multiple ‘Level’
buttons, operators can perform multiple-level breakaway.
Secondary Modes
Additional but secondary modes of panel operation are:
• Setup mode — where the NV9649 is freshly powered up, but disconnected from the net-
work. In this mode, you can set the panel ID and perform a few diagnostic tasks.
• Salvo mode — pressing a salvo button places the NV9649 in salvo mode, where it is expected
that the operator will choose a salvo and then the ‘Take’ button to executes a salvo. (The
duration of a salvo is indeterminate, but usually short.)
• Menu mode — pressing a menu button places the NV9649 in “menu” mode. In menu mode,
the buttons lose their normal functions and become part of a menu that changes as needed
during menu operation. (The panel does not have a menu in server mode.)
Special Modes
When the panel is in server mode or NV9609 mode, two additional modes can be applied:
• Source mode — when the operator places the panel in source mode, category buttons pro-
duce source lists and, under server mode, operations involving NV9648s refer to sources.
• Destination mode — when the operator places the panel in destination mode, category but-
tons produce destination lists and, under server mode, operations involving NV9648s refer
to destinations.
When the panel is in LCD XY/MD mode, one additional mode can be applied: ‘Hold’ mode.
Other NV9649 Functions
The NV9649 can be configured to perform the following additional functions:
• System salvos.
• Broadcast data routing.
