Connecting the Computer's HDMI or SDI Output

The LCD monitor above the Fairlight Audio Editor connects to your computer's HDMI monitor
output. This lets you monitor DaVinci Resolve's Fairlight page.
This LCD monitor can also be connected to the SDI output from video playback equipment,
for example a Videohub router or Decklink video output.
You can also bundle the Ethernet and video cables together with the power cables that are
threaded through your console's legs and feet. This keeps all cables neatly together to and
from your Fairlight console.

Reattaching the Chassis Back Panel

Now that all your Fairlight modules are installed, powered and connected, the final step to
complete the assembly of your console is to reattach the chassis' back panel.
Secure in place using the M3 Pozidriv screws and tighten to a torque of 0.45 Nm.
This completes the assembly and connection setup for your Fairlight console. You are now
ready to confirm your console is working with DaVinci Resolve.

Configuring the Fairlight Modules

The next step is to configure your Fairlight console for your studio.
There are two Fairlight utilities that are included in the DaVinci Resolve installer. The utilities
are called Fairlight Panel Setup and Fairlight Studio Utility.
The full studio version of DaVinci Resolve can be installed from the SD card included
with your Fairlight Console, but we recommend downloading the latest version from the
Blackmagic Design Support Center at www.blackmagicdesign.com/support.
To install DaVinci Resolve, launch the DaVinci Resolve installer and follow the onscreen
prompts. Be sure to select the 'Fairlight Studio Utility' when installing DaVinci Resolve.
