Plugging in Multi View Monitoring<br />

The ATEM <strong>switcher</strong> chassis can be a little intimidating when first seen, because it has no controls to access,<br />

just lots of connectors! So the first step is to plug in the power, and a monitor, to see it working!<br />

A fantastic way to check that your ATEM is powered on and working correctly is to plug in a HDMI television<br />

into the Multi View output on the right side of the heat sink on the ATEM rear panel. You should see 8 video<br />

boxes at the bottom, and two larger boxes at the top, all bound by white borders. Each box will have a label.<br />

If you see this video output, then your ATEM <strong>switcher</strong> is powered on and running fine! All you need to do<br />

now is plug in some control panels and video sources so you can start using your <strong>switcher</strong>!<br />

If you don't see the multi view output on your television, then check the connections and cables are correct.<br />

You need to plug into the multi view connector on the rear of the ATEM chassis. Next check your television is<br />

compatible with 1080i59.94 video, as your ATEM defaults to that video standard when new. If your television<br />

is not compatible with 1080i59.94, then don't worry, as it's easy to change once we connect your computer<br />

to the ATEM chassis.<br />

If you still don't see the multi view on your television, then double check your power connection to make<br />

sure your ATEM is powered on.
