ATEM Camera Converter can show a red tally border on an
attached monitor when its camera is on-air.

Confirming your ATEM Converter Set Up

After you have connected your ATEM Converters to a live production switcher you'll want to confirm that
everything is working.
The first thing to check is your talkback. Have the switcher operator and camera operators speak to
each other using their PTT buttons and headsets. If the camera operators and the switcher operator can
communicate with each other you'll know the talkback is working.
You'll also want to check the switcher is getting a valid signal from your connected cameras. You can check
this by having the switcher operator switch each camera to the preview or program output. If all your camera
signals can be seen on the switcher output, you'll know your ATEM Converters are working and set up
correctly.
You can also check your tally indicators for each ATEM Camera Converter by having the switcher operator
switch each camera to the program output. If their tally indicators are not working as they should, reset the
camera number on each ATEM Camera Converter. Refer to the section 'Setting the Camera Number' on
page 16 for a detailed description.
