NV9640
The columns include various indicators such as L (locked), P (protected) and + (information
available). If more than 8 levels are defined, the user can scroll through “pages” of levels using
Page Up
and
Page Down
buttons.
The display also supports multi-destination mode and salvo mode. In multi-destination mode,
the display shows 8-page segments of the destination list. The user can scroll through the pages
using
Page Up
and
Page Down
buttons.
In salvo mode, the display shows certain details of a selected salvo. (Salvos are individually
assigned to LCD buttons.)
The display shows a menu if the user presses a menu button. When you make a menu selection,
the menu data are displayed on the LCD buttons. In certain cases, the user can enter data (such
as panel ID or LCD brightness) using the menu and certain buttons that allow data entry. The
display also shows information if the user presses an ‘Info’ button. (The display does not use
columns when you are using the menu or displaying information.) An
Info
button remains dis-
abled (dark) unless there is additional information to display.
You can define Selection buttons that select a level during a breakaway setup or that select des-
tinations in multi-destination mode. (In fact, you must do so if the user is to make such selec-
tions.)
Modes of Operation
The panel operates in either an X-Y (single source/destination) mode or a multi-destination mode.
A single button (
XY/Mult
) can toggle between the modes. The NV9640 can be configured to control
all sources and destinations — or a subset of them.
The primary modes of operation are:
• X-Y Mode — full control of all router levels. Choose a destination, optionally choose desired
breakaway levels, choose a source, and press
Take
to complete a desired route. In this mode, the
display shows status for up to eight levels. Additional levels (if present) are viewable by press-
ing the
Page Up
and
Page Down
buttons.
• Multi-Destination Mode — lets you control multiple destinations. The panel displays up to 8
destinations at a time. You can scroll through 8-destination pages using the
Page Up
and
Page
Down buttons. Select a destination, choose a source, and repeat for all desired routes. The press
Take
. Takes are “all level,” and breakaways cannot be performed. Individual destinations are
selected using the selection buttons located below the display.
Secondary modes include:
• Salvo Mode — pressing a Salvo button places the NV9640 in “Salvo” mode. The display shows
information about the salvo and prompts the user to press Take to execute the salvo.
• Menu Mode — pressing a Menu button places the NV9640 in “menu” mode. In menu mode, the
LCD button array becomes a menu button panel that changes as needed during menu operation.
• Info Mode — pressing an Info button places the NV9640 in “info” mode. The display shows
one or more messages regarding, for instance, level mapping or breakaway status. Additional
message text (if any) is viewable by pressing the
Page Up
and
Page Down
buttons.
Note Unless there are more than eight entries in a list, scrolling is disabled and any
Page Up
and
Page Down
buttons will be disabled (and unlit).
