Using the ATEM 2 M/E Broadcast Panel
However if you need quick access to switch auxiliary outputs using the panel buttons, we suggest assigning
System Control M/E 2 to the ATEM 1 M/E Production Switcher. This will let you take advantage of the Aux
buttons which only appear in the 2 M/E block. The ATEM Television Studio does not have Aux outputs and
so doesn't use Aux buttons.
If using the default IP settings when using two switchers on the same network, their IP address will initially
be the same, i.e. 192.168.10.240. You should change one of them to 192.168.10.241, or use an IP address
somewhere in the 192.168.10.24_ range to keep all your switchers neatly together. Please follow the steps
detailed in the earlier section "Changing the Switcher Network Settings".
When connecting the ATEM 2 M/E Broadcast Panel to two switchers, you need to change the switcher IP
on one of the system control blocks to connect to the switcher whose IP address you have just changed. By
default the System Control M/E 1 block connects to 192.168.10.240 and so you will only need to change the
System Control M/E 2 block if you are using default settings.
To set network location of multiple switchers on the ATEM 2 M/E Broadcast Panel, simply follow these steps
for each System Control M/E block:
Step 1. When there is no communication with the switcher, the NETWRK SETUP menu will appear
on the broadcast panel system control. Select the NETWRK SETUP menu button. If there is
communication with a switcher, hold down SHIFT and DEST SHIFT and select the NETWRK
SETUP button.
Step 2.
Step 3.
Select the SWITCHR IP menu button and use the knobs or the numeric keypad to edit each field
as required.
When a field is changed, SAVE and REVERT menu buttons become available. Select SAVE to save
the changed IP address. The system control display will show it is connecting to the switcher and
will display the model of switcher once it has successfully connected.
This does not change the IP address of the switcher itself. It just changes where the control panel is looking
to find the switcher. If the control panel cannot find the switcher, then you might need to check the switcher
processor to see if it's been set correctly. To change the IP address of the switcher, connect the switcher via
USB to a computer and run the ATEM Setup Utility software as described previously in this manual.
