This chapter is intended specifically for the NV9649 panel operator .
Summary
As an NV9649 operator, you will be confronted initially with a relatively small and simple
panel
— 28 buttons, four 8-character displays, and a knob (that you can rotate and push).
The panel can operate according to 3 behavioral models (or operating modes):
• Server mode.
The NV9649 (the “server”) operates in conjunction with a number of NV9649s (which
are the “clients”).
• NV9609 mode.
The panel operates almost exactly like an NV9609.
• LCD XY/MD mode.
The panel has a hierarchical (tree-like) structure of button “pages”. You can switch at
any time between “X-Y mode” (in which you can select individual levels for a take) to
MD (multi-destination) mode where you can perform many simultaneous takes that
are all-level.
Communicate with your system administrator (or whoever designed the control system or
configured its control panels) to understand the model in which the panel was configured
and how it operates.
 If your panel operates under the server model, it will operate in conjunction with a
number of NV9649s (the “clients”). You will need to understand how to operate the
NV9649s as well.
