Installing Blackmagic Teranex Software
Installing Blackmagic Teranex Software on Mac OS X
The Blackmagic Teranex installer ensures your computer has all the drivers and software needed to get the
most out of your Teranex Processor. It's a good practice to regularly check the Blackmagic website for any
updates to the Teranex installer, or for any new internal software using the Teranex Setup utility via USB.
To install your Teranex software for the first time, or if you have just downloaded an updated installer
from the Blackmagic website:
Step 1. Double click on the “Blackmagic Teranex installer" application from the disc or downloaded
disk image to launch the “Blackmagic Teranex Installer”.
Step 2. Click the Continue, Agree, and Install buttons and the software will be installed on your computer.
Step 3. Now restart your computer to enable the new software drivers.
On Mac OS X, all the files needed to run your Teranex Processor will be installed into a folder called
Blackmagic Teranex in the Applications folder. The folder contains the Teranex Setup utility which
allows you to update the internal software via USB, and the instruction manual, which can be found in
the Documents subfolder together with other Teranex information.
Blackmagic Media Express, Disk Speed Test, Live Key and UltraScope are also installed and can be
located in the Blackmagic Design System Preferences or Applications folder. Blackmagic Media Express
allows your Teranex 2D or 3D Processor to capture and playback video when connected to a computer
via Thunderbolt. The Thunderbolt connection also allows you to perform waveform monitoring of your
video input using Blackmagic UltraScope software.
Launch the Blackmagic Teranex Installer and follow the
install prompts.
