11. Control Panels
Panel Operation
Release enables other users, other than owner, to remove the protect. (See Force Release on page
360.) To prevent anyone from performing a different route, apply a lock instead. (See Locks on
page 362.)
There are two button that apply protects:
Prot
protects a source or destination.
Dest Prt
(Destination
Protect) protects only destinations. The configurer may choose to have one or both appear on the
control panel, depending on your facility needs. If a virtual (software) control panel, when pro-
tected, the button displays ‘Unprotect’ to indicate that pressing it removes the protect status. When
unprotected, the button displays ‘Protect’ to indicate that pressing it applies a protect status to the
destination.
If a hardware control panel, the
Dest Prt
and
Prot
are toggles. Press the button to protect a destina-
tion. Press the button again to release the protects status. In addition to having a “protect” button on
the control panel, Protect mode must be enabled in the Panel Options (‘Enable Source Protect’;
‘Enable Destination Protect’). See
Adding a Control Panel on page 240.
Salvos
The Salvo button (default legend Salvo ) launches a previously created salvo. A salvo is a set of pre-
recorded activities such that when a salvo button is pressed, all pre-recorded activities occur in the
exact sequence recorded. Salvos are helpful when a certain action, such as a specific “take,” is
repeated over and over. Instead of having to create the switch sequence anew each time, the opera-
tor can just press one button.
Salvo is a unique mode, separate from X-Y or MD mode. The Salvo button runs both local and sys-
tem salvos. Using the salvo menu, operators can create, save and clear local salvos. System salvos
are created when the control panel is configured.
Local salvos are only executed by the control panel through which the salvo was created, and only
the control panel that created the salvo can delete it. System salvos can only be altered or deleted
through NV9000-SE.
Selection (non-configurable; numbered)
Selection buttons perform a specific selection when pressed. These non-configurable buttons are
numbered and usually correspond to a line of text in a display window on the control panel. Selec-
tion buttons are toggles. Press once to select and press again to deselect.
What a selection buttons selects changes depending on the mode of operation and the control panel
configuration, but in general:
• In X-Y mode, the buttons select levels and are referred to as ‘Level’ buttons. See Level on page
361.
• In MD mode, the buttons select destinations.
• In Menu mode, the buttons select menu options.
• In Salvo mode, the buttons select salvos.
For more information about control panel modes, see the control panel’s User’s Guide.
