Takes
A “take” is a route as it is being performed.
In X-Y mode, a take can be a route from one source, on all levels, to a destination or it can be 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.
A take can occur in 4 ways:
• You have selected a destination and then a source. A ‘Take’ button lights and you press the
‘Take’ button.
• You have selected a destination and press a ‘Quick Source’ button (or a ‘Src/Dst’ button). The
take occurs immediately.
• There is a default destination (or a destination assigned by an NV9649) and you select a
source. A ‘Take’ button lights and you press the ‘Take’ button.
• There is a default destination (or a destination assigned by an NV9649) and you press a
‘Quick Source’ button (or a ‘Src/Dst’ button). The take occurs immediately.
 Immediate takes on ‘Src/Dst buttons’ is a panel option that can be enabled or disabled.
Name Sets
NV9000-SE Utilities allows configurers to define multiple name sets. Each name set contains
aliases (alternate names) for any and all devices in the NV9000 system. The aliases can appear in
the displays of your panel. Whichever name set you are currently using is the active name set.
There is always a ‘System Name’ set. That name set includes the device names defined within
the NV9000 configuration. Any other name sets are optional.
Device selection using categories and suffixes requires that you enter device names using the
system name set. However, the display shows the device name as it is represented in the active
name set.
For example, suppose the system name for a destination is “VTR_42” and its alias is “Prod_A.”
Follow these steps to select the device using category selection:
1 Switch to destination mode if necessary.
2 Press a VTR category button. (Suffix buttons become enabled.)
3 Press 4, then 2. The device is selected, but the name appearing in the destination display is
“PROD_A.”
Note that when the panel is displaying aliases, and a device does not have an alias, the panel
displays the system name.
Data Routing
There are 3 data routing options that affect sources and destinations that have a machine
control level (i.e., a data level). These options govern what happens when a source or destina-
tion device is to be used.
