Using the Blackmagic Teranex Setup Utility
Blackmagic Teranex Setup Utility
The Blackmagic Teranex Setup utility offers an intuitive way to view the status of your Teranex Processor
and provides remote control from any location on your Ethernet network. This convenient application
allows you to install your Teranex Processors in another room, while providing remote operation from
a control room or office.
Getting to Know the Interface
When you launch Blackmagic Teranex Setup utility, you'll first see the log in pane. From here you can
see all your connected Teranex Processors on your Ethernet network, and you can add more Teranex
Processors if you need to. Open the Setup utility by clicking on the Setup icon below the name of your
Teranex Processor.
Resizing the Interface
Click and drag the bottom right corner of the log in pane to proportionally resize the interface to best
fit your screen size. Alternatively, drag a window edge to resize either vertically or horizontally.
Selecting a Teranex Processor
The Teranex Setup utility will automatically locate your Teranex processor on your Ethernet network
and will display it by model name in the log in pane. If more than one Teranex Processor is found, each
will be displayed in a separate window. Simply click the arrows in the right and left screen margins to
select the desired processor, then click the icon below the processor’s name to establish a connection.
If your Teranex Processor did not automatically appear, you can add the unit manually using its IP address.
The IP address of your Teranex Processor can be found via the unit's front panel in the System Setup
Menu. If you need to establish a new IP address, either static or via DHCP, this can also be done from
the front panel. Please refer to the System Setup Menu section of this manual for details.
To add a Teranex Processor using Teranex Setup:
Step 1. Press the + (add device) button at the bottom left corner of the login pane.
Step 2. Type in the IP address and press Add.
Step 3. The Teranex Processor will appear as another controllable device on your network.
Using the Blackmagic Teranex Setup Utility
To manually add a Teranex Processor, click the "+" icon on the
