Welcome

Thank you for purchasing a Blackmagic Design Teranex converter for your facility.

The Teranex converter you have purchased is an amazing quality standards converter

that you will spend hours playing with to discover all the wonderful functions it has.

I am still playing with it myself to see all the other things I can use it for! We have packed

it with the latest SDI, HDMI and analog connections so you can use it to

convert and connect anything!

One of the exciting advantages of the Teranex converter is the amazing quality

of the conversions. It features a powerful SIMD processor that allows more complex

calculations, allowing the Teranex to do a better job at processing video, removing

field movement, detecting cadence, noise reduction, timecode conversions, subtitle

conversion and much more!

Enjoy exploring your Teranex processor and we all hope you have many years

of enjoyment out of it. Please let us know of any ideas and features you would like

to see, as we are constantly updating the software so it gets better and better!

Getting Started

Plugging in Power

Getting started with your Teranex processor is as easy as plugging in power and connecting

your signal input and output.

To supply power, plug in a standard IEC power cable to your Teranex processor’s power input

on the rear panel.

Plugging in Video

Plug your source video input into your Teranex processor’s video input, and plug the video

output into your destination equipment. Note that all video outputs are simultaneously active so

you can connect to more equipment if needed. Confirm the signal by checking the LCD on the

control panel. The LCD can display the input or output video, pressing the ‘in’ or ‘out’ button will

set the display accordingly. The LCD also gives details about the video format and frame rate.

The Teranex Express and AV also display timecode and audio levels.

Plugging in Audio

If you are connecting SDI video, then you already have audio connected as it is embedded in

the SDI video signal. On Teranex processors with XLR connectors you can also plug in analog

or AES digital audio.

Teranex 3D has XLR connectors for analog or AES audio input

and output, plus LTC timecode in and out.

Conversions

Once you have powered your Teranex processor and connected your inputs and outputs, you

are ready to perform a conversion. To set a conversion, the first thing to do is set your input and

confirm the input signal.

Setting your input

1 Press the ‘in’ button on the left side of the control panel. The button will illuminate

when selected.

2 Using the ‘video’ buttons, select the SDI, HDMI, analog or optical video input.

3 When your input is selected, you will see the image displayed on the built in

LCDand your Teranex will automatically detect the input format and illuminate all

thecorresponding buttons, including format and frame rate.

4 Using the ‘audio’ buttons, select the embedded, AES, or analog audio input.

5 After setting your input, you can now change your output settings for your

desiredconversion.

Press the IN button to display the video input format. In this example,

the format is 1080i50 via SDI with embedded audio.

Setting your output

1 Press the ‘out’ button on the left side of the control panel.

2 Select the video ‘format’ you want to convert to.

3 Choose the ‘frame’ line mode you want. For example, progressive, interlaced or

progressive segmented frame.

4 Choose the desired frame ‘rate’.

5 Now set the ‘aspect’ ratio you want.

Your converted video will now appear on the LCD and is available on all relevant video outputs.

Setting the Latency for Teranex AV

Teranex AV has a processing mode which by default is set to ‘lowest latency.’ This mode is ideal

for use in live productions, with a typical latency or processing delay through the Teranex AV of

2 frames. To achieve this low latency, Teranex features not required in live productions are

bypassed without affecting the overall image quality of your program. For post production

applications we recommend that you use the ‘highest quality’ setting, which will enable you to

utilize scene cut detection, noise reduction and linear interpolation algorithms as needed. To

set the latency for Teranex AV:

1 Press the ‘home’ button, then press ‘system setup’ and then ‘processing’ to reach the

‘processing’ menu.

2 Select ‘lowest latency’ for live productions or ‘highest quality’ for post production

applications.

3 Your Teranex AV will restart to enable the chosen processing mode.

That’s all there is to getting started with your Teranex processor. With the setup utility installed

and your Teranex updated with the latest internal software, you can start setting your conversion

workflows. Please keep reading the instruction manual for more detailed information on all the

different conversion types, settings and powerful features of your Teranex processor.

66Getting Started

Installing Admin Software

Software Installation

Blackmagic Teranex Setup is used to update your Teranex processor and to change conversion

settings remotely. The software is very easy to use, and all the settings for any connected Teranex

units can be accessed by clicking on each respective unit’s settings icon on the Home page.

Installation on Mac OS X

1 Download the Blackmagic Teranex Setup software from www.blackmagicdesign.com

2 Unzip the downloaded file and open the resulting disk image to reveal its contents.

3 Double click the installer and follow the prompts to complete the installation.

Installation on Windows

1 Download Blackmagic Teranex Setup from www.blackmagicdesign.com

2 Unzip the downloaded file. You should see a Blackmagic Teranex Setup folder

containing this PDF manual and the Teranex setup utility installer.

3 Double click the installer and follow the prompts to complete the installation.

4 When the installation has finished, it will prompt you to restart your computer.

Click‘restart’ to complete the installation.

Once your computer has restarted, Blackmagic Teranex Setup will be ready to use.

After downloading and unzipping the

Blackmagic Teranex Installer, simply launch

the installer and follow the install prompts.

77Installing Admin Software

Use Blackmagic Teranex Setup for updating your

Teranex processor and for changing settings remotely

from a Mac OS X or Windows computer.

Updating the Internal Software

It is important to ensure that power is connected to your Teranex processor beforeconnecting

aUSB cable between the computer and your Teranex.

1 Power your Teranex processor.

2 Attach a USB cable from the computer to your Teranex.

3 Launch the Blackmagic Teranex Setup application. Teranex Setup will detecttheUSB

connection to your Teranex and will display it as a “Local USB” connection.

AUSBconnected device is always positioned as the first device in the list of connected

devices in Teranex Setup. Note the white dot at the bottom of the screenshot on the

previous page.

4 Click the icon below the processor’s name to establish a connection. If Blackmagic

Teranex Setup contains newer internal software than thatcurrently installed in your

Teranex, you will be prompted to update. Just follow the onscreen instructions to

complete the update. Once the internal software update is complete, disconnect the

USB cable. If you are connected to your Teranex via Ethernet, you may locate your

Teranex by name within the list of Teranex connected devices to make changes toyour

Teranex settings using the setup utility.

88Installing Admin Software

Connectors

The types of connectors will vary depending on your Teranex processor model. Generally,

allTeranex processors can convert SDI signals. Other models can also convert HDMI and

analog video, but you will need to check your particular model to know which information in
