Summary
The NV9641A has a “multi-page” user interface. Each of its 16 buttons (illuminated in various
colors and having 3 lines of text) can either (1) execute a function or (2) select another button
page (i.e., present an entirely new set of functions). The set of button pages is not limited in size.
Panel operators navigate to different button pages to perform different tasks.
A NV9641A has two distinct behavioral models, with some functions in common:
•
XY/MD model.
•
Paging model.
The user interface of the XY/MD model is tree-structured (or hierarchical) although it is not
always a “tree” in the strictest sense. Users can access various button pages through navigation
buttons.
The user interface of the paging model is not tree-structured. Button pages are arranged in a list
instead. Users scroll through pages using the up and down buttons at the right of the panel.
The NV9641A uses its up and down buttons for scrolling through various lists and pages.
At the rear of the panel, a DB25 connector supports 8 tally inputs and 4 tally outputs.
The software with which to configure the NV9641A is NV9000-SE Utilities. Figure 4-1, following,
shows the default NV9641A panel configuration page from NV9000-SE Utilities.
The Panel IP Configuration Utility is also available if you want the NV9641A to take a static IP
address.
