Live server:
– 4-port server—select SDI 1
– 8-port server—select SDI 1 or SDI 5 (this server supports two UHD streams)
– 8-port server for loop through—select SDI 1 or SDI 5, but not both.
– Dual 8-port with loop through—select SDI 0:1 to 0:5 or SDI 1:1 to 1:5.
6. Click the Edit icon
7. Disable Preferred Processor (if displayed in the panel—model dependent and

disabled for UHD/4K.
8. Set Video Mode to QuadLink Video Input or, for a dual 8-port system, select
QuadLink Loop Thru Video Input.
9. Click Save and close the panel. The four SDI source set (1-2-3-4 or 5-6-7-8) is now
QuadLinked into one UHD source.
When you QuadLink SDI 1, then SDI 2, 3, and 4 are removed from the Sources panel
and SDI 1 is renamed to include the acronym UHD. Similarly, when you QuadLink
SDI 5—SDI 6, 7, and 8 are removed from the Sources panel and SDI 5 is renamed.
10. Optionally, on 8-port servers, you can implement video loop through—set the
video mode to QuadLink Loop Thru Video Input and perform the steps in
QuadLink Loop Through
11. In Vantage Workflow Designer, create (or update) a Live Capture workflow per your
UHD video processing requirements and configure the Capture action to connect
to the newly-named SDI input that created for this workflow. See
Capture
12. Activate the workflow so that it is ready to start a job when it receives a stream.

Configuring Capture to Process SD/HD Video

Note: Lightspeed Live servers with dual 8-port 3G SDI cards have 8 permanent input
and 8 permanent output SDI ports; loop-through is permanently enabled and can't be
changed. Ignore loop through steps when performing this task on these servers.
When your Live server is currently set to UHD/4K mode and you want to re-configure it
to process SD/HD video, follow these steps:
1. Make sure that a valid UHD/4K source is actively providing a signal to the server's
SDI ports you are using for UHD and plan to convert back to SD/HD use.
2. In Vantage Workflow Designer, deactivate all Live Capture workflows that were
using the UHD/4K source.
3. In Source Manager, display the Sources panel (see
the UHD/4K source (SDI 1 or SDI 5—or SDI 0:1 or SDI 0:5 on C5) you want to convert
