Telvue InfoVue Pro Getting Started

The following instructions for launching a TelVue InfoVue system include configuring both the InfoVue
!
Pro Player and the InfoVue Stick (see back page). The rack-mounted Pro Player is generally for
broadcast and streaming applications, whereas the ultra-compact Stick is generally for individual
monitors, or to fully preview any content and design changes before publishing.

Plug In HDMI

Plug the InfoVue Player Pro HDMI output into the Gefen HDMI Detective Plus HDMI Input as
shown. Then optionally plug the Gefen HDMI Detective Plus HDMI Output into an HDMI
monitor for monitoring purposes.
!
Please do NOT connect the power supply to the Gefen device. This will cause it to malfunction.
The Gefen HDMI Detective Plus simulates an HDMI monitor being connected to your InfoVue
player at all times to prevent any interruptions to the IP streaming output when the display used
for monitoring is unplugged or turned off. It also allows you to run the player headless (without
a monitor) and still support the IP streaming output. If you are not using the IP output and are
just using the HDMI output to feed a fixed display or encoder, the Gefen is not required, but
still recommended.
