Chapter 2: Operation
USB Control and Setup—Using AJA Mini-Config
Your AJA Mini-Converter can be used right out of the box for some applications since it is
designed to recognize inputs and perform standard actions automatically by default.
However, to use its full capability, you must use AJA’s Mini-Config software application
for PCs and Macs. This same application can be used to update to new Mini-Converter
software released by AJA.
Acquiring Mini-
Config
AJA’s Mini-Config application is available for download from the AJA website.
To download the latest Mini-Config package, which includes the Mini-Config application,
Mini-Converter firmware, and documentation, go to:
https://www.aja.com/en/products/mini-converters/mini-config-software
Select either the Windows or Mac icon to download the desired version.
Mini-Converter
Documentation
Included with the Mini-Config package is a complete set of documentation for all Mini-
Converters supported by Mini-Config. A .PDF of the Installation and Operation Guide for
the currently connected Mini-Converter can be accessed from the Mini-Config UI via the
Help/Manual drop-down menu.
Documentation for all AJA Mini-Converters that use Mini-Config can also be accessed
directly in the Mini-Config download package Documentation folder, and via the
Documentation icon available on the Mac installer.
Documentation (and firmware) included with the Mini-Config application are the
versions available at the time of distribution. However, Mini-Converter software,
firmware and documentation are updated regularly, so newer versions may exist.
To download the latest documentation for an individual Mini-Converter, go to:
https://www.aja.com/en/category/mini-converters
and navigate to the Support web page of that Mini-Converter.
