The ‘End’ value must be greater than or equal to the ‘Start’ value.
The physical ranges entered here must match the “controller” ranges you specified in MRC or
UniConfig.
Use the ‘Delete’ button if you have defined too many levels or if you find it easier to start over
from an empty list. Otherwise, you can simply retype the entry in any of the fields of the table to
change the table.
Remember to click ‘Save’ after making changes to any of the router details. Otherwise your
changes could be lost when you leave the page.
Misc. Parameters
The miscellaneous parameter fields in this section define important parameters for the physical
levels of the router.
Important: the parameters that are displayed (which you can change) apply to the currently
selected physical level. To select a physical level, click in any field for that level in the level table.
The first field of the miscellaneous parameters is, in fact, the name of the selected level. This is to
remind you which level you selected.
These are the parameters:
•
Name
The ‘Name’ field is a convenience
—
duplicating the name in the list of levels
—
that helps
you remember that the parameters apply to the selected level. You can change the name of
the level in this field or in the table at any time.

Input Protect, Input Lock
Each of these fields defines how inputs will be locked or protected.
The choices for these fields are ‘In Server’ and ‘Disabled’. ‘In Server’ means that inputs are
locked or protected within the NV9000 control system software. Otherwise, input locks or
protects are disabled.

•
Output Protect, Output Lock
Each of these fields defines how outputs will be locked or protected.
The choices for these fields are ‘In Server’, ‘In Router’, and ‘Disabled’. ‘In Server’ means that
outputs are locked or protected within the NV9000 control system software. ‘In Router’
means that outputs are locked or protected within the router itself. Otherwise, output locks
or protects are disabled.

Shared Control
The choices for this parameter are ‘False’ and ‘True’.
This option informs the system controller whether another control system is connected to
this physical level. That is to say, another control system is connected to the router control
card and that it can initiate crosspoint changes.
From the drop-down list, select ‘True’ to confirm that this is so. The NV9000 software will
allow the externally initiated changes and update its tables accordingly. (The NV9000 soft-
ware will not log unexpected changes as errors.).
