Blackmagic Teranex Setup Settings
The Teranex setup utility can change all the same settings that are available using the switches,
plus additional settings.
You can access these settings by moving between the ‘video,’ ‘audio,’ ‘configure,’ and
about’ tabs.
The ‘about’ and ‘configure’ tabs are detailed in the ‘changing settings’ section in this manual.
The ‘video’ tab for Teranex Mini – Optical to Analog 12G contains the following settings.
Video Output Menu
This lets you pick between component, or s-video and composite video output as well as
setting the luminance and chroma levels, and the B-Y and R-Y component levels independently.
If you have selected s-video and composite output, you can additionally choose between 7.5
IRE and 0.0 IRE black levels, depending on the region you are working in. If you have selected
component video, you can switch between SMPTE and Betacam levels. SMPTE levels are more
common and even Betacam SP decks can use SMPTE levels, so only switch this to Betacam if
you are sure that Betacam levels are being used.
