Connecting Teranex
Getting started with Teranex is as easy as plugging in power, plugging in your video inputs and connecting
your output destinations.
Step 1. You can power your Teranex processor by connecting an IEC cable to the AC power socket.
The Teranex 3D has two internal AC power supplies for redundancy. The Teranex 2D has one
internal AC power supply, and you can use the 12V DC port for external battery power and/or
a “brick” DC adapter in case one supply fails or is accidentally disconnected. (The DC power
supply is an optional purchase.)
Step 2. Connect your camera, deck or other video source to the video inputs on your Teranex.
Step 3. Connect the video output connectors to a video destination, such as a disk recorder or video
monitor. All video outputs are simultaneously active so you can connect more equipment if needed.
Setting your Input
After connecting your equipment, verify your input signal using the control panel buttons, soft menu
buttons and LCD.
Step 1. Press the IN button on the control panel.
Step 2. Using the VIDEO buttons, select your SDI, HDMI, Analog or Optical video input, depending on
your model. If selecting analog, confirm component or composite by turning the rotary knob.
When your input is selected, you will see the image displayed on the built-in LCD. The Teranex
processor will automatically detect your input format and illuminate the corresponding buttons.
Step 3. Select your Embedded, AES or Analog audio input type using the AUDIO buttons. If selecting
Analog, confirm your connection as either DB25 or RCA using the soft menu buttons.
Setting your Output
Now select your desired output settings using the control panel buttons, soft menu buttons and LCD.
Step 1. Press the OUT button on the control panel.
Step 2. Press the FORMAT, FRAME, RATE and ASPECT buttons to set your desired output format,
frame type, frame rate and aspect ratio. When using AES or analog audio outputs on the
Teranex 3D, select the desired type in the AUDIO button section.
Step 3. Using the soft menu buttons, select Change to confirm your settings. The video and audio
output buttons will illuminate blue, indicating the active outputs.
The converted video output will now be seen on the LCD, and sent to your connected video equipment.
