8.1.1 OUTPUT TAB
The Output Configuration panel contains a pane governing TriCaster’s outputs, and may also include a tabbed
pane with Genlock & Failsafe options (Failsafe only for TriCaster 410) and settings. (TriCaster Mini does not
have genlock or failsafe options.)
P RIMARY O UTPUTS
The first tab, labeled Output, provides control over all of TriCaster’s Output channels. Each of these is in some
ways unique. Depending on the model, either the first two (Mini and 2-RU models) or three (4-RU models)
of these are of particular interest.
 Along with the supplementary HDMI output listed next, these primary outputs support the largest
number of optional video sources.
 The primary outputs (plus HDMI) can uniquely follow the delegated M/E. or a Switcher color group.
o All other outputs can be assigned to follow a primary output, or show a designated Switcher
source.
 Uniquely, Output 2 can be tasked with sending an alpha channel matte to downstream systems.
Let’s consider the optional settings provided by primary outputs:
 Video menu – assign any source from the following list to either Output 1 or Output 2:
