device” is used interchangeably with “destination.” A source is a device that is connected to
one or more input ports. A destination is a device that is connected to one or more output
ports. An example of such a device would be a monitor.
A device can be both a source and destination. An example of such a device is a VTR.

Virtual level Virtual levels allow the system administrator to define a single physical router level as
multiple levels. Within a physical level, any port can be mapped to any virtual level. For
example, an AES matrix could be divided into AES 1/2 and AES 3/4
virtual levels.
X-Y (mode) A mode on an NV9000 control panel that switches one destination at a time, in contrast to
multi-destination mode. In X-Y mode, some panels can display the virtual levels for the
selected destination. Operators using those panels can perform breakaway level selection
and level mapping.
