Aux Output - NewTek TriCaster 850 User Manual


The sole analog video connection type commonly supporting HD is Component.
Consequently, the analog Connection Type for HD sessions is always Component (SD
Analog Connection options are ghosted).

This means that the four BNC connectors for Program (Row 1) output will be
automatically configured as HD-SDI and HD Component (three connectors – Y, Pr and
Pb) for all HD sessions.
Somewhat similarly, for SD sessions, Row 1 outputs SD video. (If the session is 4:3, output is also
4:3. When the session is 16:9, video output is also 16:9.) Additional Connection Type options are
made available for SD sessions.

Select between Composite + Y/C or Component connection types.

Choosing Component or Composite + Y/C results in the output connectors in the
corresponding row being configured as shown in the following table:

The Aux group in Output Configuration provides more options than are available for the first two
video output rows. Two drop-down menus appear here, regardless of session format, labeled
Source and Format.
