11. Setup NV9000 Remote Panel
The Compact Router Series does not have centralized router control. Instead, control is distributed
to the remote panel modules. Control panels, through which operators perform switching tasks, are
mounted on remote panel modules. This combination is called a remote panel. For systems using
compact routers, this is a cost-effective way to control routing until your facility and system needs
require robust routers and a system controller.
Using the ‘Setup NV9000 Remote Panel’ page you can “turn off” a remote panel modules control
features enabling an external NV9000 router control system to control the attached control panel.
This enables you to control your control panels and routers all from one NV9000.
For an overview of routing and router control, see Routing Overview on page 63.
To open the ‘Setup NV9000 Remote Panel’ page, from the navigation pane, click ‘Setup NV9000
Remote Panel’ under the ‘Administrative Tools’ bar. The page appears in the right-hand pane.
At any time, click Refresh Summary to update the list of panels that display.

Using the ‘Setup NV9000 Remote Panel’ Page
The ‘Setup NV9000 Remote Panel’ page has two parts. At the top of the page is the ‘NV9000
Remote Panel Settings’ section. This section allows you to enable NV9000 control of a remote
panel module. At the bottom of the page, the ‘Network Frame Summary’ has three tabs that display
a list of ‘Remote Panels’, ‘Levels’, or ‘All CR Frames’ (compact routers) defined in the network.
Use the ‘Remote Panels’ tab to select a remote panel module to update.
