Introduction

Function Buttons and Displays

The NV9648 has 3 very different operating modes (or behavioral models):

• ‘Panel Client’ mode. For brevity, we can call this “client” mode.

When the panel is in “client” mode, it operates in conjunction with an NV9649 and other NV9648s. The NV9649 is the “server” and the NV9648s are the “clients.” The NV9649 and the NV9648s combine to form, in essence, a larger panel — actually a cluster of many small panels. The NV9649, being the server, can control which sources and destinations the NV9648s can select. See ‘Panel Client’ Mode

• ‘Panel Standalone’ mode. For brevity, we can call this “standalone” mode.

When the panel is in “standalone” mode, it functions much the way it does in “client” mode, but with a few added button functions. See ‘Panel Standalone’ Mode

• ‘LCD Min XY/MD’ mode. For brevity, we can call this LCD XY/MD mode.

In this mode, the panel also operates standalone, but has a richer function set. The panel’s buttons are used in a hierarchical fashion: pressing a ‘navigation’ button causes the panel to display a new set of button functions or a “button page.” There can be many such pages, organized in a configurable tree structure.

The operator can switch the panel between “X-Y mode” and multi-destination (MD) mode. In X-Y mode, the operator can perform takes (and locks) on individually selected levels. In MD mode, takes occur on all levels, but the operator can perform takes to multiple destinations simultaneously. See ‘LCD Min XY/MD’ Mode

The panel’s 27 buttons and 3 displays are used in very different ways in the 3 modes.

on page 5.

on page 6.

on page 7.

Function Buttons and Displays

At the front, the panel is divided into 3 sections. Each section has 1 display and 9 buttons. Refer to Figure 2-1.

Each display is an 8-character alphanumeric LED display.

Each function button incorporates a 64×32 LCD. The buttons’ LCDs can be illuminated in 7 colors: red, green, yellow, blue, purple, amber, and grey. Each LCD can be off, bright (high-tally) or dim (low-tally) depending on what the operator is doing and what functions are selected.

A button’s LCD (when it is not off ) presents the button legend. Some button legends are fixed. Source and destination buttons, for example, show the source or destination mnemonic. Some button legends vary. Selection buttons have 3 lines of text, the top line displaying the current source, the middle line displaying the preset source, and the bottom line displaying the level (in X-Y mode) or MD device in MD mode.

The buttons and displays are used differently in the 3 operating modes.

In client mode and in standalone mode, each section functions as a complete and separate panel, unrelated to the other two sections. Each displays shows the source or destination chosen for its section. (When the panel is in client mode, the NV9649 server panel can reassign the destination and sources to each section of each NV9648.)

In LCD XY/MD mode, all 3 sections are integrated. The displays show, in MD mode, respectively, from left to right, (1) the current source, (2) the preset source, and (3) the selected destination. All 27 function buttons form a “button page” in a hierarchical structure of button pages.

Tally Interface

At the rear of the panel is a DB25 connector that provides 8 tally inputs and 4 tally outputs. (The outputs are solid state relay outputs.) Both inputs and outputs are optically isolated.

During configuration, you can construct Boolean logic that switches the outputs on or off. The terms of the logic expressions are states of the source and destination devices, etc., controlled by the NV9000 control system.

During configuration, you can prescribe NV9648 behavior that depends on the tally inputs.

What you connect to the tally interface is, of course, up to you. Grass Valley provides a breakout cable (WC0053) for the tally connector as a purchase option.

The NV9000-SE Utilities on-line help documentation calls the tally interface a GPIO interface. On the rear of the panel, it is labeled a “GPI interface.”

User’s Guide

See chapter 6, GPIO

Modes of Operation

The NV9648 has 3 operating modes (or behavioral models). The panel’s 27 buttons and 3 displays are used in very different ways in the 3 modes.

‘Panel Client’ Mode

When the panel is in “client” mode, it operates in conjunction with an NV9649 and other NV9648s. The NV9649 is the “server” and the NV9648s are the “clients.” The NV9649 and the NV9648s combine to form, in essence, a larger panel — actually a cluster of many small control units. The NV9649, being the server, can control which sources and destinations the NV9648s can select.

Each NV9648 has 3 identical sections and, in client mode, each section functions as a complete and separate control unit, unrelated to the other two sections. Each displays shows a destination chosen by the operator of the NV9649.

In client mode, the control unit shows the current source in its display when the NV9649 server is in source mode and the destination when NV9649 is in destination mode.

NV9649 (1)

3 Panel Sections (7x)

NV9648 (7)

Modes of Operation

Here is an example of a system with an NV9649 and 7 NV9648 clients:

In this example, there are 21 control sections in addition to the controls of the NV9649. At any moment, the operator can route to 21 destinations. The operator can, of course, assign different destinations to the control units at any time. The function buttons in each unit apply only to the destination assigned to the unit.

Saved Client Assignments

Every time an operator assigns a destination to an NV9648 client or assigns a source to a source button of a client, those assignments are recorded within the NV9000 system controller. Therefore, if and when the system controller undergoes a power cycle, the source and destination assigments of all the NV9648 clients are preserved.

The NV9649 (server) can be configured so that up to 12 different sets of client assignments (or “set-ups” as they are called in the NV9649’s menu) can be defined, selected, redefined, and otherwise managed as different operators choose.

A NV9649 always has a default setup and may have eleven other named setups.

‘Panel Standalone’ Mode

When the panel is in “standalone” mode, it functions much the way it does in “client” mode, but it does not require the presence of an NV9649 and has a few added button function types, in particular a destination section button.

In standalone mode, each of the panel’s 3 control sections functions as a complete and separate control unit, unrelated to the other two sections. Each unit’s display shows the destination chosen for its section. If the unit has no destination selected, the display reads “NO DEST.”

Each of the 3 units can be configured with a default destination.

NV9648

User’s Guide

‘LCD Min XY/MD’ Mode

When the panel is in LCD XY/MD mode, the panel also operates standalone, not requiring the presence of an NV9649, and has a moderately richer function set. The panel’s buttons can be used in a hierarchical fashion: pressing a ‘navigation’ button causes the panel to display a new set of configured button functions, called a “button page.” There can be many such pages, organized in a configurable tree structure.

The operator can switch the panel between “X-Y mode” and multi-destination (MD) mode. In X-Y mode, the operator can perform takes (and locks) on individually selected levels for a single destination at a time. In MD mode, takes occur on all levels, but the operator can perform takes to multiple destinations simultaneously.

Under the LCD XY/MD model, the 3 sections of the panel are integrated. The displays show, respectively, from left to right, (1) the current source, (2) the preset source, and (3) the selected destination. All 27 function buttons form a “button page” in a hierarchical structure of button pages.

The panel supports the use of multiple ‘selection’ buttons. When the panel is in X-Y mode, the selection buttons select levels. When the panel is in MD mode, the selection buttons select MD devices (which are destinations). If there are more levels (or more MD devices) than there are selection buttons, the operator can press a ‘Page Up’ or ‘Page Down’ button to scroll through the list of levels (or, in MD mode, the list of MD devices).

Additional Modes

Additional but secondary modes of panel operation are:

• Setup mode — where the NV9648 is freshly powered up, but disconnected from the net-

work. In this mode, you can preset the NV9648’s panel ID and perform a few diagnostic tasks.

See S

etup Mode on page 71.

• Menu mode — pressing a menu button places the NV9648 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.

See Menu Mode

Other modes of operation are:

on page 68.

• Hold mode — when you press the ‘Hold’ button, hold mode becomes active and when you

press it again, hold mode becomes inactive. See Hold

Hold mode is available when the panel is operating under the LCD XY/MD model.

Other NV9648 Functions

The NV9648 can be configured to perform the following additional functions:

• Previous source and free source.

• System salvos.

• Lock/protect/release for destinations.

• Device selection using categories and indexes or suffixes.

• Multiple- and single-level breakaways.

If you have ordered one or more NV9648 control panels from Grass Valley, 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 101.

Depending on your order, the NV9648 items that can ship include:

• One or more NV9648 control panels.

• One or two power supplies for each NV9648, with straps that secure the AC power cords to

the power supplies.

• One or more rack-mounting kits (NV9649-48-RMK).

• Optional WC0053 breakout cable.

The package does not contain network cables, serial cables, or mounting screws. (The rackmounting kit, if present, does contain screws.)

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

This document does address the relationship of the NV9648 to the NV9649. Otherwise, this document does not address the shipment or installation of any other equipment or software that can be used in conjunction with the NV9648 (including the NV9000 system controller, NV915 system controller, other NV96xx control panels, EC9700 GUI, EC9710 GUI, and configuration programs such as UniConfig 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 NV9648 control panel:

1 Mount, and secure, the panel(s) in the rack.

The NV9648 is designed to mount in a 19” rack. Rack-mounting is not a requirement.

The NV9648 is a 2RU half-width panel: you can install two of them side by side in a rack. Rack mounting (either one or two NV9648s) requires a rack mounting bracket such as the one in Grass Valley’s NV9649-48-RMK (rack-mounting kit). The kit contains two parts, (1) the bracket itself and (2) a filler plate for brackets that will hold only one panel. The kit provides 8 mounting screws for attaching the panels to the bracket.

The NV9648 mounts on the kit’s bracket using 4 screws. The bracket has two apertures in which the connectors at the rear of the panel are exposed:

The filler plate and the NV9648 attach to the bracket in the same way. Each may be placed on either side of the bracket.

See Drawings

on page 83 for bracket dimensions.

Once the panel(s) are attached to the bracket, you can place the bracket in position in your rack. Attach the bracket to the rack frame, using screws appropriate for your rack. The bracket’s mounting slots are spaced 3.00” (76.2mm) vertically and allow approximately 1/8” (3mm) of movement horizontally.

2 We 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 NV9648.

3 Connect one or both power supplies. First connect the 4-pin connector to PS1 or PS2 on the

rear of the router. The connectors are keyed and snap into place. There is only one way they fit. Do not force them. Then connect the power supply to AC power.

A second power connection is for redundancy only (protection against failure) and is not a

Installing Software and Documentation

This document is available through the Grass Valley web site.

You must use NV9000-SE Utilities to configure the NV9648 control panel. Contact Grass Valley 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 NV9648 to have a static IP address (with respect to the NV9000) or to use DHCP. The panel, as it comes from the factory, defaults to DHCP.

User’s Guide

Initialization

Before your NV9000 system controller can communicate with an NV9648, you must give it a panel ID. Follow these steps for each NV9648 you are installing:

1 Power up the NV9648. Do not connect its Ethernet cable. (Disconnect it if it is connected.)

2 Press the menu button. The panel now displays a menu of 3 items:

After a few seconds, the display will show ‘Acquire IP Address’ at the top left and show the panel’s current panel ID:

The menu button, with which to access the setup functions, is at the lower right.

Press ‘Enter Panel ID’ to go to the panel ID menu. Or press ‘Exit’ to leave the menu.

3 The panel ID menu has a numeric “keypad” with which you can enter a new panel ID:

The panel shows the current panel ID in the right-most display. It shows the panel ID you are entering in the first button under that display.

If you make a mistake, press ‘Clear’ to erase your entry and start over.

When you have entered a panel ID correctly, press ‘Save’.

Press ‘Exit’ at any time to leave the panel ID menu. You might have to press ‘Exit’ more than once to leave the menu entirely.

4 After you enter the panel ID, reconnect the Ethernet cable. The NV9000 system controller

can detect your panel in a few seconds. (All panel IDs must be unique.) But it will do so only when the NV9000 has a panel configuration defined for this panel ID.

You can now prepare an NV9648 configuration in NV9000-SE Utilities and upload the configuration to the NV9000. You need the panel ID to create a NV9648 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.

When you restart the NV9000 system controller with the appropriate panel configuration, the NV9648 you have configured should become active. Its buttons and displays will turn on, showing meaningful data.

Testing

A panel test function is available when the NV9648 is disconnected from the system controller. Run the test to determine the health of your NV9648. See S can also view the software version numbers under setup mode.

These are points to consider after you install your NV9648 control panel(s):

1 Do the buttons illuminate? When an NV9648 powers up, one or more of its buttons are sup-

posed to turn green or amber. Does it pass the panel test mentioned above?

2 When the NV9648 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,” “Acquire IP Address,” or “Locating Network,” you have a problem. Reboot everything and try again.

 The NV9648, by default, acquires its IP address through DHCP on the NV9000’s panel/

If (in setup mode) you do not see your designated panel ID in the top left button, you have either not initialized the panel or no configuration has been created for your panel in

3 Is the NV9000 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.

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

specified panel?

5 Does the configuration actually work? Is it useful? Can the operator perform takes and per-

form other operations?

You might want to consider how well your operator interface works in addition to the basic question of whether it works.

This chapter addresses configurers. Operators and other persons not interested in NV9648 configuration need not read this chapter.

The NV9648 is a relatively simple panel. It has 27 function buttons, 3 small displays, and a GPIO (tally) interface. The displays and function buttons are organized into 3 groups, each group having 1 display and 9 function buttons.

Each display shows 8 characters.

Each function button has a color LCD, 64×32, that provides up to 3 lines of text, 8 characters per line, in several colors and at two levels, bright (high-tally) and dim (low-tally). When a button is undefined, unassigned, or momentarily disabled, its LCD is off and we say the button is “dark.”

The NV9648 panel can be configured to operate under 3 behavioral models (or operating modes):

• ‘Panel Client’ mode.

When the panel is in “client” mode, it operates in conjunction with an NV9649 and other NV9648s. The NV9649 is the “server” and the NV9648s are the “clients.” The NV9649, being the server, can control which sources and destinations the NV9648s can select. To some extent, it can control the functioning of the clients.

• ‘Panel Standalone’ mode.

When the panel is in “standalone” mode, it functions much the way it does in “client” mode, but with a slightly different function set. In standalone mode, an NV9649 is not required.

• ‘LCD Min XY/MD’ mode.

Adding a Panel to an NV9000 Configuration

The panel’s 27 buttons and 3 displays are used in very different ways in the 3 modes.

At the rear of the panel, a DB25 connector supports 8 tally inputs and 4 tally outputs. See Chapter 6, GPIO

NV9000-SE Utilities is the software with which to configure the NV9648. Figures 4-1, 4-2, and 4-3, following, show typical NV9648 panel configurations (in NV9000-SE Utilities) for each of the behavioral models.

, on page 75.

Adding a Panel to an NV9000 Configuration

You must create configurations for the NV9648 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.

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:

NV9648

User’s Guide

Choose “NV9648” from the ‘Type’ field. In the ID field, enter the panel ID you assigned to the panel while it was in setup mode. 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 NV9648 configuration file is

.648. Click ‘Next’ or ‘Finish’ to proceed.

NV9648 Panel Configuration Page(s)

Return to the ‘Control Panels’ page to view your new entry. To edit an NV9648 configuration, either double-click its list entry or select the entry and then click ‘Edit Selected Control Panels’:

You will then see the panel configuration page for the selected NV9648.

The following section of this guide discusses using the panel configuration page in which you configure an NV9648.

NV9648 Panel Configuration Page(s)

The NV9648 panel can be configured to operate under 3 behavioral models:

• ‘Panel Client’ mode.

• ‘Panel Standalone’ mode.

• ‘LCD Min XY/MD’ mode.

(The behavioral model is selected in the first entry options.)

The panel configuration pages for the 3 models differ greatly. The set of button functions differ and the panel options also differ.

However, the configuration pages do have some common features.

Common Page Features

Panel Graphic

At the top of the page is a graphic representation of the NV9648 panel. Above the graphic is a the pathname of the panel’s configuration file. (This file corresponds to what you are editing, which will eventually be sent to the NV9000.)

Configurers must click a button “proxy” in the graphic to select the button for configuration.

GPIO Section

In this section, configurers may define GPIO logic. The control panel has a rear connector that provides 4 relay outputs and 8 optically isolated inputs. The section has two parts: inputs and outputs.

By clicking on one of the input or output buttons, you can configure the input or output.

(The NV9648 has no actual tally buttons. These buttons represent the DB25 connector at the rear. The buttons are present in the configuration page to allow you to configure the tally interface.)

If you are interested in configuring the tally interface, read chapter 6, GPIO

, on page 75.

Commitment Buttons

Two buttons at the bottom of the configuration page are self-explanatory and present on most configuration pages:

• Revert to Saved. Press this button if you want to discard any recent changes you have made.

• Save. Press this button to commit all your recent changes.

Neither of these actions is reversible.

The ‘Save and Close’ button, also at the bottom, dismisses the configuration page in addition to saving the configuration changes.

Clear Configuration Button

The ‘Clear Configuration’ button, located in the ‘Panel Options’ section, completely empties the configuration, reverting to default values. The button does not, however, change the selected behavioral model.

The person configuring an NV9648 panel will want to consider how best to use the buttons to support the devices and routers in the router control system at hand. The task is non-trivial. In support of that effort, the configurer will do the following:

• Select panel options.

• Assign functions to buttons.

• Define logic for some or all of the tally inputs and outputs.

Configuration Page for Client Mode

This is a sample NV9648 panel configuration page for client mode:

Fig. 4-1: NV9648 Configuration Page (in Client Mode)

There are 5 button function types for a panel in client mode:

Destination Lock Destination Protect Quick Source

Source Take

These are described in Button Functions for Client Mode

on page 34.

Characteristics of Client Mode

The panel has 3 sections that are independent control units. Each unit — having one display and 9 buttons

One or more NV9648s (clients) operate with an NV9649 (server). The NV9649 can assign a destination to any of an NV9648’s sections and also assign sources to the source buttons of any of an NV9648’s sections.

In client mode, clients show current sources in their displays when the NV9649 is in source mode and show the sections’ destinations when the NV9649 is in destination mode.

(Refer to the NV9649 Users’ Guide.)

 Before you can complete an NV9648 “client” configuration, you must have defined an

NV9649 server configuration. The NV9648 references the NV9649 by its panel ID.
