protection is especially important in some locales. Power conditioners can reduce wear on power supplies and
other electronics, and provide a further measure of protection from surges, spikes, lightning and high voltage.
CONFIGURING TRICASTER
TCMI4KUHD is very easy to use. In many installations all you need to do is supply power, connect a video
source to the input module, connect the module to your TriCaster, and assign it to a Switcher input. Let ’ s take
that last step before discussing other features.
3. Open the Input Configuration panel for the TriCaster Switcher input you intend to connect this device
to. To do so, right-click on either a Switcher button or the input ’ s monitor viewport and select
Configure in the context menu.

4. Click the Source menu at upper-left in the input tab to view available sources.
Hint: Connected TCMI4KUHD devices appear the menu as TCMI4KUHD – (unit serial number) > Channel 1.
WEB CONFIGURATION
Sometimes, though, you will want to access your input module ’ s local settings, perhaps to configure login
credentials, update firmware, etc. These features are made available by means of the device ’ s local
configuration webpage, which you can access directly from TriCaster.
Note: You may occasionally find it necessary to delete cached files (sometimes referred to as the browser ’s
“history”) before the display refreshes to properly show some recent change. This ca n happen, for example,
after a firmware update.
