Narrative:
On comix RNAV arrival descending through approximately 11;000 ft on profile; given speed reduction of 210. Had pilot flying open speed window and put in 210 and apply full speed brakes while I put 210 in the VNAV descent page in order to make VNAV 'smart' for the rnp approach. I was heads down in the box and didn't catch the excessive speed and lack of VNAV speed protection; looked up and saw 280 KIAS at 9700 ft; descending and not decelerating. I took the aircraft; disengaged the autopilot; leveled and slowed to 210. ATC made no mention of speed. Failure to monitor pilot flying and automation in transition to 250/10;000 feet. Greater awareness of automation especially approaching critical phase of flight (10;000 feet).
