Summary

The NV96051 is a 1RU panel, 1.75” deep, overall. It has 2 sets of backlit function buttons and a small display. The display has 3 distinct LED readouts each having 8 characters.

The NV9605 can operate in one of 2 modes. See Modes of Operation, following.

The panel is organized as shown in figures 2-1 and 2-2:

Fig. 2-1: NV9605 Front

The function buttons select sources or destinations, or perform some task such as locking a destination. The function buttons are configurable. More functions are available for the rightmost 4 buttons than for the buttons on the left of the display.

The scroll buttons (‘Page Up’ and ‘Page Down’) are not configurable buttons. Using the scroll buttons, the operator can scroll through 4 “pages” of sources and destinations.

After selecting any one of the pages, the operator can further select one of two sets of sources using a configured ‘Source Shift’ button. Thus, every source button potentially represents 8 sources, depending on the page in use and the state of the ‘Source Shift’ button.

There is no corresponding ‘Destination Shift’ function. There is only one set of destinations for each page.

The scroll buttons are also used when the panel is in menu mode (to change the illumination of the buttons). See Menu Mode on page 39.

1. An equivalent NV9605V — a GUI that is called a “virtual panel”— is available. It emulates the NV9605.

Introduction

Panel Organization

At the rear of the panel are power, serial control, Ethernet, and GPIO connectors:

Power

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ethernet (RJ-45)

 

 

 

GPIO (DB25)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Serial (RS-422)

 

 

Fig. 2-2: NV9605 Rear

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You connect the NV9605 to the NV9000 system using the Ethernet connector.

The serial port is for local diagnostics, as it is for all control panels.

The NV9605 uses external PS0001 power supplies. One will suffice. Two provide redundancy.

The GPIO connector supports the panel’s GPIO functions: 4 outputs and 8 inputs. See GPIO on page 45.

Panel Organization

Function Buttons

The NV9605 has an array of 32 function buttons on the left. Four of the 6 buttons on the right are function buttons. (The other 2 buttons on the right are scroll buttons.) The buttons’ functions are only slightly different in each of the 2 operating modes. (See Modes of Operation, next.)

The 10 buttons at the top left are labeled with numerals (0–9). These are for menu operations such as entering the panel ID.

Each button has three operational levels: high and low tally (green or amber), and off. Operators can adjust the low tally levels in increments of 10% using the panel’s menu. Buttons that are turned off are said to be “dark.” (Physically, they are actually white or gray.)

Generally, green represents a source or a source function and amber represents a destination or a destination function.

The function buttons each have clear plastic keycaps under which you may place plastic inserts for button legends. It is a simple matter to change button legends.2

Differences between the Left and Right Function Buttons

All 32 buttons to the left of the display scroll whenever you press a scroll button. The buttons on the pages are independent. For instance, a button that is a source on one page need not necessarily be a source button on another page.

The 4 function buttons on the right behave differently when you scroll:

Source buttons remain source buttons on all pages, although they can represent different sources on different pages. Destination buttons are destination buttons on all pages, although they can represent different destinations on different pages.

Other functions (such as ‘Hold’ or ‘Menu’) are fixed and remain the same for all pages.

2.The NV9605V (virtual panel) has automatically generated button legends. For instance, a source button might have 2 lines of text: its “unshifted” source and its “shifted” source, selected with a ‘Source Shift’ button.

User’s Guide

Alphanumeric Display

The display has 3 display fields.

Display Fields

The display has 3 fields of 8 characters:

Status, labeled “S” on the panel.

The ‘Status’ field always shows the source that was routed to the currently selected destination, which is identified in the ‘Destination’ field.

Destination, labeled “D” on the panel.

The ‘Destination’ field shows the current destination.

In multi-destination mode, the destination field shows the most recently selected destination and the status field changes to reflect the source most recently routed to that destination.

Page, unlabeled.

The ‘Page’ field shows the current page (of four).

The ‘Status’ and ‘Destination’ fields can show either names belonging to a name set or system names depending on (1) the state of the ‘Name Set Toggle’ button (if the panel has one), (2) the default name set (3) the existence of name sets in the NV9000 configuration.

Flags

When a destination is in breakaway, the ‘Source’ field indicates the breakaway with an asterisk in its eighth character position.

The asterisk will obscure the last character of the source name if the name has 8 characters.

Modes of Operation

The NV9605 operates in one of 2 modes:

Limited X-Y Mode.

Multi-Destination Mode.

The panel’s set of button functions varies slightly with the mode.

The modes (or behavioral models) are determined at configuration. The operator cannot switch between different modes.

5

Introduction

Other NV9605 Functions

Limited X-Y Mode

In limited X-Y mode, takes occur from a single selectable source to a single selectable destination.

If the panel has any level buttons, operators may perform breakaway—routing sources on fewer than all levels.

Pressing a source button completes the take. There is no ‘Take’ button.

Operators can scroll among 4 pages of sources and destinations and use a ‘Source Shift’ button to toggle between two sets of sources in each page.

Multi-Destination Mode

In this mode, source buttons are configured with destinations as well as sources. Thus, each source button completes a route to an individual destination. If each button had a different destination, it would be possible to route to 32 destinations in each of the 4 pages. The typical configuration would have fewer destinations. The panel uses spacing to separate the left-hand buttons into 4 groups. The most natural number of destinations would be 4 (per page), but that is not a requirement.

There is no ‘Take’ button.

Takes are all-level.

Operators can scroll among 4 pages of sources and destinations and use a ‘Source Shift’ button to toggle between two sets of sources on each page.

Secondary Modes

Additional but secondary modes of panel operation are:

Setup mode—where the NV9605 is freshly powered up, but disconnected from the network. In this mode, you can preset the NV9605’s panel ID and perform a few diagnostic tasks.

Menu mode—pressing a menu button places the NV9605 in “menu” mode. In menu mode, the buttons lose their normal functions and become part of a menu that changes as needed during menu operation.

When the panel is not in setup mode or menu mode, we say it is in normal mode. “Normal” means the panel is functioning in one of the 2 operating modes.

Other NV9605 Functions

The NV9605 can be configured to perform the following additional functions:

Previous source and free source.

System salvos.

Lock/protect/release for destinations.

Multiple-level breakaways.

Broadcast data routing.

Package Contents

If you have ordered one or more NV9605 control panels from Miranda, inspect the shipping container for damage. If you find any container damage, unpack and inspect the contents. If the contents are damaged, notify the carrier immediately.

As you unpack the shipping container, look for the packing slip and compare it against the contents to verify that you received everything as ordered. If anything is missing (or if you find equipment damage unrelated to shipping), please contact technical support. Refer to Grass Valley Technical Support on page 63.

Depending on your order, the NV9605 items that can ship include:

One or more NV9605 control panels.

One or more power supplies (PS0001) with power cord retention straps.

The package does not contain network cables, serial cables, or mounting screws.

You do not need to take any special precautions regarding ESD.

This document does not address the shipment or installation of any other equipment or software that can be used in conjunction with the NV9605 (including any system controllers, other NV96xx control panels, EC9700 GUI, EC9710 GUI, and configuration programs such as UniConfig, MRC, or NV9000-SE Utilities).

This document does briefly address the use of NV9000-SE Utilities and the Panel IP Configuration Utility as they pertain to panel configuration.

Installation

Follow these steps to install a NV9605 control panel:

1Mount, and secure, the panel in the rack.

The NV9605 is designed to mount in a 19” rack. Rack-mounting is not a requirement.

2We assume that you have an Ethernet switch connected to the “Panel and Router Network” port of your system controller. Connect an Ethernet cable from that switch to the RJ-45 port at the rear of the NV9605.

Installation

Installing Software and Documentation

You can also connect the panel using a serial protocol and a serial cable connected at the panel’s DE9 port. The connection is RS-422. The system controller will require a serial port. (The NV960 has several serial card options and breakout boxes for such a connection.) Refer to the NV9000-SE Utilities User’s Guide for serial configuration options. Contact Miranda regarding serial interface options.

3Connect power. It is advisable to connect the power supply to the panel before connecting the power supply to AC current. You can use two power supplies for redundancy.

Installing Software and Documentation

This document is available through the Miranda web site.

You must use NV9000-SE Utilities to configure the NV9605 control panel. Contact Miranda if you need to obtain the latest version of this NV9000 configuration software.

You may use the Panel IP Configuration Utility if you want to your NV9605 to have a static IP address (with respect to the system controller) or to use DHCP. The panel, as it comes from the factory, defaults to DHCP.

Initialization

Before your system controller can communicate with an NV9605, you must give it a panel ID.

Follow these steps for each NV9605 you are installing:

1Power up the NV9605. Do not connect its Ethernet cable. (Disconnect it if it is connected.)

After about a minute, the display will show ‘ACQ IP’ at the top and show the panel’s current panel ID. The top right button is high-tally green:

A C Q I P

Setup but-

 

0

We call that the “setup” button while the panel is disconnected from the network.

2Press the setup button. The panel now allows you to enter the panel ID using buttons at the left that function as a numeric keypad. The numbers of the keypad a printed on the panel. They range from 0 (at the left) to 9:

P a n e l I D

_ _ _ _ _ 1 2 3

Enter the panel ID using the keypad. Then press the setup button again.

3 The panel displays a confirmation message:

User’s Guide

4Press the setup button once again and continue to press the setup button until the panel displays ‘ACQ IP’ once again as in step 1.

5After you enter the panel ID, reconnect the Ethernet cable. The system controller will detect your panel in a few seconds. (All panel IDs must be unique.)

You can now prepare an NV9605 configuration in NV9000-SE Utilities and upload the configuration to the NV9605. You need the panel ID to create a NV9605 configuration. When you upload the configuration, the panel ID you entered in NV9000-SE Utilities designates the actual panel to which the upload will occur. If no actual panel has that ID, the upload cannot occur.

Testing

A panel test function is available when the NV9605 is disconnected from the system controller. Run the test to determine the health of your NV9605. See Setup Mode on page 41 for detail. You can also view the software version numbers under setup mode.

These are points to consider after you install your NV9605 control panel(s):

1Do the buttons illuminate? When an NV9605 powers up, one or more of its buttons are supposed to turn green or amber. Did it pass the panel test mentioned above?

2When the NV9605 powers up and it is connected to the system controller, it should initialize completely. (That takes a few seconds.) The NV9000 system should load whatever configuration exists for that panel and the buttons appropriate for its configuration should light.

If you continue to see “No Server,” “ACQ IP,” or “Locating Network,” you have a problem. Reboot everything and try again.

The NV9605, by default, acquires its IP address through DHCP on the system controller’s panel/router network. You can use the Panel IP Configuration Utility to force the panel to have a static IP address.

If (in setup mode) you do not see your designated panel ID in the ‘Preset’ display field, you have either not initialized the panel or no configuration has been created for your panel in NV9000-SE Utilities.

3Is the system controller actually running? With the typical noise levels in a facility, it can sometimes be difficult to tell. Use the ‘System’ pages of NV9000-SE Utilities to make the determination.

4Is NV9000-SE Utilities installed and operating? If so, can you upload a configuration to the specified panel?

5Does the configuration actually work? Is it useful? Can the operator perform takes and perform other operations?

This chapter addresses configurers. Operators and other persons not interested in NV9605 configuration need not read this chapter.

Summary

The NV9605 is a relatively simple panel. It has 36 function buttons, 2 scroll buttons, and a small display. It has 2 operating modes.

Limited X-Y Mode.

Multi-Destination Mode.

The set of button functions varies slightly between modes.

NV9000-SE Utilities is the software with which to configure the NV9605. Figure 4-1, following, shows the default NV9605 panel configuration page from NV9000-SE Utilities.

Adding a Panel to an NV9000 Configuration

You must create configurations for the NV9605 using NV9000-SE Utilities. We assume that you are familiar enough with NV9000-SE Utilities that you can understand the following material. It is not difficult material, but some of the concepts might not be familiar to everyone.

It takes only a few seconds to add a new panel configuration.

Adding a Panel to an NV9000 Configuration

After launching NV9000-SE Utilities, choose ‘Control Panels’ from the Configuration pane in the navigation area. The ‘Control Panels’ configuration page appears:

Click ‘Add Control Panel’ at the bottom of the configuration page. The ‘Add Control Panel’ page appears:

Choose “NV9605” from the ‘Type’ field. In the ID field, enter the panel ID you assigned to the panel while it was in setup mode. (You can change the panel ID in NV9000-SE Utilities.) Give a name to the panel in the name field and select a user.

When you are creating a panel configuration you have 3 options. These options are presented in the ‘Configuration Options’ area:

1 Make a copy of an existing configuration file, giving it a new file name.

2 Use an existing configuration file. (This allows several panels to share a single configuration.)

3 Create an entirely new configuration file.

In the first and third cases, you will create a new configuration file whose name you designate. The file extension for an NV9605 configuration file is .605. Click ‘Next’ or ‘Finish’ to proceed. Click ‘Previous’ to go back the previous page. Click ‘Cancel’ to terminate the entry operation.

There are 2 other buttons, ‘Suffix’ and ‘Navigate’, both dim (disabled). These do not apply to the NV9605.

Return to the ‘Control Panels’ page to view your new entry. To edit an NV9605 configuration, double-click its list entry:

You will then see the panel configuration page for the selected NV9605.

Following is a discussion of how to use the panel configuration page in which you configure an NV9605.
