16.1.1 IVGA FOR OS X
The iVGA installation for OS X is supplied as a zipped disk image (.dmg) file. To install it, first copy this file to
your Macintosh® Desktop (either using a network connection between your Macintosh® and TriCaster
systems, or perhaps by using a USB thumb drive).
FIGURE 209
 Double-click the Zip file to decompress it, and then double-click the .dmg file to mount it.
 The NewTek iVGA icon shown above will be placed on your Desktop. Open it (by double-clicking, and you
will see two files in a Finder window – the readme file, and the iVGA client program.

 Drag the iVGA icon from the finder to your Applications folder.
 Run it by double-clicking the icon, and in a moment or two the
iVGA swirl will be placed in your Dock, and an onscreen dialog
reporting ‘iVGA Ready and listening!’
When you roll your mouse over the Net 1 or Net 2 monitors in
TriCaster’s All Monitors tab, a triangular button appears next to
the Configure button (gear). The new source (your ‘Mac’ desktop)
will be listed in the drop-down selection menu that opens when
you click the triangle.
When iVGA is running, the icon in the (OS X) Dock has a menu you can access by right-clicking it:
 Engaging Privacy Mode prevents the client display from appearing accidentally on the TriCaster
display when you don’t want it to.
 Keynote Mode allows the iVGA client to update the screen even if Keynote® is running. (This also can
be used with some games, though the framerate will likely be only one frame per second.)
 Hide the mouse cursor in output with the Hide Mouse option.
 Show either desktop monitor when you have more than one attached using the Monitor 1 or Monitor
2 options in the menu.
 The Options list contains settings for Open at Login, Remove from Dock, and Show in Finder.
