Introduction
This Quick Start Guide provides a basic overview of FS2 system connections and
configuration. The FS2 can be extremely simple to use, because of its ability
to detect incoming signal formats and automatically apply the correct video
processing for the selected output format. However, the FS2 is also extremely
powerful and can be flexibly configured to perform a wide variety of tasks.
This Quick Start Guide is designed to help you get your FS2 up and running for
the first time, and confirm it is operating properly. It also provides step-by-step
instructions that demonstrate a FS2 signal processing example.
For additional information, please see the FS2 Installation and Operation Guide
available on the AJA website.
