User’s Guide
If neither of the control ports for the source or destination are in use, the take occurs
naturally without any further action required. Note that the ports will become “in use” after
the take you are performing.
Follow these steps to take the data level as a breakaway:
1 Select a destination.
2 Select a source.
3 Examine the display and the take button.
4 If the Take button is still high-tally (and the selection button for the machine control
level is yellow), press the ‘Take’ button again to complete the take.
You can cancel the control-level take by pressing a button other than ‘Take’.
Chop
The chop function is a diagnostic function for routers that support chop. It allows you to
switch rapidly between two sources at a particular destination. The chop interval is defined
in the NV9000 configuration. The default chop interval is 6
fields
.
Follow these steps to use chop:
1 Select a destination.
2 Select a source. This is the first source.
3 Press the chop button.
4 Select another source. This is the second source. The chop is immediately activated on
the routers (of the default destination) that support chop.
To terminate the chop, (1) press the chop button again to turn off chop, (2) select the
destination you had chosen for the chop, then (3) select any source.
