Multiview; Network; A/V Io - NewTek TriCaster 40 User Manual

Surge protection is especially important in some locales. Power conditioners can reduce wear on TriCaster's
power supplies and other electronics, and provide a further measure of protection from surges, spikes, lightning
and high voltage.

2.1.1 MULTIVIEW

TriCaster's Multiview output serves for subsidiary monitoring purposes or perhaps projection applications.
Connecting a display device to one of the unused monitor connectors on TriCaster's backplate is usually all that
is needed for the system to recognize it. A variety of Multiview layouts can be selected at any time in the Output
Configuration panel in TriCaster's Live Desktop.
Note: Only two of the monitor ports on TriCaster's backplate can be used simultaneously. The port type options
available for Multiview will depend on which connection you used previously to connect the monitor the UI. For
best results, configure Multiview Output to the native resolution of the external display (monitor or projector)
connected.

2.1.2 NETWORK

TriCaster can include screens from networked computers running NewTek's iVGA™ client software, network
output from applications such as LiveText™, or Apple® Airplay® media in your live productions. As well, an
internet connection can serve for registration and updates, and of course for live streaming purposes.

2.1.3 A/V IO

Figure 2
Input and output connectors for upstream audio and video sources are conveniently mounted on TriCaster's
faceplate (Figure 2). Connectors are grouped and labeled, making it easy to see what should be connected and
where.
TriCaster lets you 'live switch' up to four HD (or SD)
cameras or other analog inputs, along with internal
and network connected sources. You can even mix
SD and HD sources. In addition, multiple external
audio sources can be added to your program.
Audio and video output options are also quite
varied. Aside from Network inputs (Section 2.1.2),
all external media inputs along with Program and
Auxiliary audio and video outputs are conveniently
located on TriCaster's faceplate.
