6.9.2 USING LIVETEXT

As we noted in the Quick Start chapter, at Section 0
(LiveText™),
a workstation on your TriCaster network
with LiveText installed serves as a dedicated CG and Title
solution for your TriCaster presentations.

When running and connected, LiveSet will be listed in the
External Source menu, similar to an iVGA source.

For more information on installing and using LiveText,
please refer to its manual.

6.9.3 EXTERNAL SOURCE

The left half of the External tab is home to the External Source panel. This is where you can
select from available external sources.

Once launched, the iVGA client and LiveText publish their availability across the network to the
host TriCaster system. TriCaster then adds the external source to the list of potential live inputs
in the External Source drop-down menu(s), making them available for selection.

Once the External Source is selected, simply click the Ext button to activate it on any of
TriCaster’s Switcher rows. TriCaster should find all iVGA or LiveText clients on the network, listed
by their computer name.
