Configuration
Global Navigation
At the bottom right, are ‘Move Up’ and ‘Move Down’ buttons. You can use these to adjust the
position in the list of any MD destination.
After you have finished configuring MD destinations, click OK (or cancel, if you want to dis-
card your entries). The MD destinations you have configured now appear in the display sec-
tion of the panel graphic. They will subsequently appear in the display of the panel when it is
operating in MD mode.
You can edit the set of MD destinations later, adding or removing entries as you wish.
MD Destination Options
On the right side of the multi-destination entry editor, each MD destination has two check-
boxes. One is in the ‘User Definable’ column and the other is in the ‘User Selectable’ column.
User-Definable
When the MD destination is “user definable,” the operator may choose a different destination
using the panel buttons. “User definable” is the default for all MD destinations. Uncheck the
‘User Definable’ box if you want to prevent the operator from changing this MD destination.
User-Selectable
When the MD destination is “user selectable,” the operator may select it and assign a different
source to it using the panel buttons. That is also the default for all MD destinations. Uncheck the
‘User Selectable’ box if you want to prevent the operator from taking a source to this
destination.
Global Navigation
NV9000-SE Utilities supports what are known as “global navigation” pages for NV9640

control
panels. Global navigation pages are templates — patterns — that may be used and reused in the
creation of NV9640 configurations.
There are two types of global navigation pages: ‘Suffix’ and ‘Navigate’. A navigate template may
define a single button page or an entire subtree of pages. A suffix template is a single page only.
The buttons allowed in a suffix template are a small subset of the buttons supported by NV9640
configurations. Navigate templates support all functions except ‘Global Navigate’. That is
because templates cannot be nested.
Templates themselves are not NV9640 configurations.
Follow these steps to create either type:
1 Choose ‘Control Panels’ from the ‘Configuration’ pane. Then click ‘Add Control Panel’.
2 In the ‘Add Control Panel’ page, complete the details as you would for a panel: The panel
type is NV9640. Specify a panel ID, a name, and choose ‘New’ in the options section.
3 Rather than click the ‘Next’ or ‘Finish’ button, click the ‘Suffix’ or ‘Navigate’ button. Doing so
creates a global navigation page of the appropriate type.
Using a suffix page is different from using a navigation page.
1. NV9000-SE Utilities also supports global navigate templates for the NV9641 and NV9642.
