Button Types
These are the button types available for NV9605 configurations:
Type
Code
Description
Broadcast
M, X
On the data (machine control) level, the button enables a
broadcast take to an
additional
controlled device, after a broadcast
route has been initiated with a “source is master” control-level take
to the
first
controlled device.
The button definition has no fields to configure.
A broadcast button is useful in dubbing applications or when a
backup (redundant) device is in use. See
on
See also the
button, following.
Chop
M, X
When a chop function is supported by a router, the button is a
toggle that enables and disables rapid switching of the selected
destination device between the current source and the preset
source. This chop function is used to test system timing.
The button definition has no fields to configure.
Default state
X
The button returns the panel to its most recent power-up state.
That is called the
default state
.
The button definition has no fields to configure.
Destination
L, X
The button selects a destination. The destination name appears in
the ‘Destination’ display. The destination is the target of an
upcoming take, which will route a source to that destination.
When you assign a destination button, two drop-down menus
appear: ‘Level Set Filter’ and ‘Destination Device’. Select the device
for this button from the list that appears in the ‘Destination Device’
field.
The button is not available in multi-destination mode.
Destination
Lock
M, X
The button sets or removes a “lock” on the current destination
device. The lock can be removed only by the user (at this panel or
at another) that originally set the lock, or by a panel that has “Force
Release” enabled.
The button definition has no fields to configure.
The NV9605 provides no explicit indication, during operation,
whether a destination is locked or unlocked.
This button is available, but does not operate, in multi-destination
mode. It is present on the configuration page as a future feature.
