Operation
Operating Concepts
Some control panels can lock or protect both sources and destinations. However, The NV9607
provides locks and protects for destinations only.
A forced release is when the lock or protect is removed by someone other than the owner. A
forced release can be performed:
• At any panel configured with release mode set to “forced release.”
• At any other panel with “force release” enabled.
The ‘Destination Lock’ and ‘Destination Protect’ buttons are toggles. Press the lock (or protect)
button to lock (or protect) the current destination. Press the button again to release the lock (or
protect). (Note that destination locks and protects are not available in MD mode.)
When a destination is locked, its button is red.
 Note: a protect prevents others from routing to a destination; a lock prevents anyone — even
the user who issued the lock — from routing to the destination.
 You may lock a protected destination, but you cannot change a locked destination to a
protected destination directly. You must first unlock it.
Locks and Protects with Breakaway
Use this method to lock or unlock selected levels in single-destination mode with breakaway:
1 Verify that the default destination appears in the ‘Destination’ field of the display.
2 Optionally press ‘Source Shift’ to toggle between the source pages.
3 Optionally press a source button. The source currently routed to that destination might
already be what you want. Pressing the source performs a take.
4 Select the levels you want to lock or unlock. Selected levels are high-tally. If your panel has a
‘None/All’ button, you can use it to select either no levels or all levels.
5 Press a ‘Destination Lock’ button.
Use this same method to protect or unprotect selected levels, using a ‘Destination Protect’
button instead.
Note that lock buttons are toggles. Therefore, if you select some levels that are already locked
and some that are unlocked, pressing the lock button will invert their status. Locked levels
become unlocked and those that were unlocked become unlocked. The same is true for protect
buttons.
Takes
Pressing a source button completes a take, in any mode, unless source preview mode is active.
In that case, it is necessary to press a ‘Take’ button to complete the take. Following are brief
instructions on how to perform a take under 4 cases.
Case 1 — Single-Destination Mode
Takes in single-destination mode are all-level. Follow these steps:
1 Verify that the default destination appears in the ‘Destination’ field of the display.
If the ‘Destination’ field does not show the default destination, of course, a problem exists.
Usually that is because the panel was not configured with a default destination, but it is also
