This panel hosts tabbed panes, and the first one is labeled Output . This is where the signals sent to each of
the video output busses designated MIX 1-4 (or Mix 1 and 2 , for TC Mini) as well as the Stream output are
configured. There are various decisions to make for each output:
• What video source will you assign to the output?
• What audio source will accompany it on digital connections that carry both signals?
• Which video format will be transmitted?
And so on …
Hint: Resolution and color adjustments for devices connected to the various ‘monitor ports’ on the backplane
are located in the Display Settings panel, accessible from the Workspaces menu in the main Dashboard.

Let’s review video Source selection first. A drop-down menu by that name permits you to select sources for
the primary video outputs. The primary output connectors are identified by number in the SDI OUT group
on the system backplane on rack-mount models, and also appear on your network as NDI sources.

Hint: NDI sources are listed by supporting systems as machine_name (channel_name). So, if your system is
named MyVMC, the 2
nd ou tput appears as “MyVMC (MIX 2)”.
