Operating Concepts

Automatic Data Routing

A take involving a machine control level occurs naturally on all selected levels, including the 
machine control level, regardless of whether an affected machine control port is in use. The 
system breaks any existing control connections involved with the source and destination and 
makes a new control connection for the source and destination.
This data routing option applies in both operating modes.

Manual Data Routing

If a control port for the source or destination is “in use,” a take involving a machine control level 
occurs on all levels 

except

 the machine control level. You must break either the source’s control 

connection, the destination’s control connection, or both of those existing connections before 
you can take the source to the destination on the machine control level. To break a connection, 
route a device (as a source) to itself (as a destination) on the machine control level. When the 
connection is broken, the status column of the display reads “FREE” for the machine control 
level (in X-Y mode). If your panel is in multi-destination mode, you might switch to X-Y mode 
momentarily to see this.

When a take involving a machine control level is blocked on the control level, the display 
displays the message “Control In Use.” 

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.

This data routing option applies in both operating modes.

Semi-Automatic Data Routing

This data routing option applies only in X-Y mode. 

If a control port for the source or destination is “in use,” a take involving a machine control level 
occurs on all levels 

except

 the machine control level. Nevertheless, you are given the opportu-

nity to complete the take on the machine control level by pressing the ‘Take’ button a second 
time.
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 display shows “Control in Use” and the Take button is still high-tally, 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
