User Manual

If everything is working fine, you should see the lights on the Ethernet port start to flicker,
and the broadcast panel should come alive with buttons illuminated, and the main display on
the panel should say ‘ATEM Production Switcher’. The power status indicator lights on the front
of the panel will also illuminate. On the ATEM 1 M/E Advanced Panel, the LCD will show the
source names for sources switched to the program and preview outputs, plus other settings.
If you don’t see this appear, then check that the switcher and the hardware panel are powered
correctly and/or power connectors are firmly plugged in.
If things are still not working, then you should make sure that your ATEM hardware panel is
connected directly to your switcher and not via a network. If this is correct, then the most likely
cause of the problem is the hardware panel and the switcher have IP addresses in different
ranges. In this case, you will need to check and set these as described later in this manual.
If you need to manually set the network settings, then you might need to get the assistance of a
technically minded friend who understands how to set IP addresses. By default, the switcher is
set to a fixed IP address of 192.168.10.240, and the ATEM broadcast panels are set to a fixed IP
of 192.168.10.10, so when connected directly they should communicate without problem.
Similarly, ATEM 1 M/E Advanced Panel is set to a unique default address of 192.168.10.60. Go to
the ‘Connecting to a Network’ section in this manual to see how to check and set your switcher
to these addresses. Then it should work OK with a direct connection between the hardware
panel and the switcher.
