Panel Organization
The NV9000-SE 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: nomi-
nally 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.
