User’s Guide
NV9649 category buttons can represent a source category or a destination category. When
you press a category button to begin device selection, the panel displays a list of all devices
in that category. You can scroll through multiple pages of devices using ‘Page Up’ and ‘Page
Down’ buttons to find the device you want.
You can also use the panel’s knob to perform device selection by category. The panel will be
in either source mode or destination mode. Turning the knob scrolls through categories.
Pressing the knob selects the category displayed in the ‘Preset’ display. When you press the
knob, the panel allows you use the knob to scroll through devices within the selected
category or to append suffixes to the category mnemonic, using a “keypad,” to form the
desired device name. The device so named becomes the selected device.
The knob is used only when the panel is operating under the ‘Panel Server’ model.
See Procedure H — Perform Device Selection by Category List , on page 114
See Procedure I — Perform Device Selection using Category Pages , on page 115.
Lock, Protect, and Release
In a multi-user system, routes made by one user can be made safe from being accidentally
or maliciously change by another user.

Owner The user ID of a panel where a lock or protect was issued.
Source lock No one can use the source.
Source protect No one but the owner can use the source.
Destination lock No one can route to the destination.
Destination protect No one but the owner can route to the destination.
Release To remove a lock or protect.
Some control panels can lock or protect both sources and destinations. However, The

a router from multiple sources, on different levels, to a destination.
In MD mode, a take is (1) a route of a source to a destination on all levels or (2) several such
routes executed simultaneously.
