2. Introduction
Panel Organization
Configurers will use ‘Navigate’ buttons to create new button pages (subtrees). During operation,
NV9642 users will press a ‘Navigate’ button to access a subtree. However, ‘Navigate’ buttons are
typically not labeled “Navigate”; they would be labeled according to the specific function they per-
form in your system.
The panel can also display predefined button pages. For instance, a “category” button, when
pressed, will display one or more pages of sources or destinations through which the operator may
browse. A “menu” button presents a page of menu options.
Panel Organization
Function Buttons
The NV9642 has two rows of 17 LCD buttons — a total of 34 LCD buttons. Each has 3 lines of text
(up to 8 characters per line). The buttons can display one of seven colors dynamically: nominally
red, green, blue, purple, amber, yellow, or grey. An eighth color exists
— “dark” — when the LCD is
off.
If the button text occurs on only one or two lines, the button displays larger text, centered on the
button.
During configuration, you can assign any of the 7 colors to a button.
Each LCD button has four levels of brightness: off, low, medium, and high, and supports three
operational levels: high tally, low tally, and off. High tally can be either medium or high brightness
and low tally can be either low or medium brightness. High tally is always constrained to be
brighter than low tally. See
LCD Buttons , page 77, for a color chart.
Although you can see a list of the pages in the tree during configuration, the structure of the tree is
not evident on the panel itself. The panel operator must commit the tree structure to memory to be
able to use the panel. It is up to the person configuring the panel to design a usable tree structure.
Some buttons functions are assigned by the system depending on the context. For example. if a but-
ton page is to represent all sources in a category, and that list changes, the button subtree adjusts in
size dynamically. The panel software adds a “forward” button and a “back” button if there are more
sources than buttons. Pressing the ‘Forward’ button takes you to the next page of sources. Pressing
the ‘Back’ button takes you to the previous page of sources.
Some button states depend on context. Many buttons remain unlit when their functions are dis-
abled. For example, ‘Page Up’ and ‘Page Down’ buttons remain unlit until there is an opportunity
to scroll selection buttons. By default, an XY/MD button turns green for X-Y mode and amber for
multi-destination mode. ‘Save Preset’ goes low tally when you press ‘Clear Preset’.
The LCD buttons display a menu if the operator presses a menu button. When the operator make a
menu selection, viewable data are displayed on the LCD buttons. In some cases, the operator can
enter data (such as panel ID or LCD brightness) using buttons that allow data entry.
Configurers can define ‘Selection’ buttons that select a level during a breakaway setup. (Configur-
ers
must do so if the operator is to make such selections.)
