Waveform Monitoring with
BlackmagicUltraScope
When Teranex 2D or 3D is connected to a compatible Mac OS X or Windows computer
viaThunderbolt, you can use Blackmagic UltraScope to monitor the output levels of your
videoconversion.
Blackmagic UltraScope software is available to download from the Blackmagic Design support
center at www.blackmagicdesign.com/support.
Installation Requirements
The Blackmagic UltraScope software interface requires a computer display with a minimum
resolution of 1280 x 800 pixels to view two scopes simultaneously. Blackmagic Design
recommends viewing all 6 scopes simultaneously by using a computer display resolution of
1920 x 1200 or 1920 x 1080 pixels.
Please see the support pages at www.blackmagicdesign.com for a comprehensive list of the
latest minimum system requirements for Blackmagic UltraScope.
Understanding Blackmagic UltraScope Views
Blackmagic UltraScope has two different views available depending on your workflow needs
and screen resolution. You have the choice of viewing six displays in ‘full screen’ view, or for
more compact viewing, choose any 2 displays in ‘2-up’ view.
The display view can be selected from the ‘view’ menu.
Choose ‘full screen’ to enter full screen view. If this option is unchecked, 2-up view will be
displayed. You can quickly switch between full screen view and ‘2-up’ view by using the hot key
‘command F’ on Mac OS X.
In ‘2-up’ view, select the desired left and right scopes by opening the ‘view’ menu or by
right-clicking anywhere in the UltraScope window. Make your selections from the ‘left view’ and
‘right view’ menu options.
If you want the scopes to swap sides, select the left or right view and set it to be the same as
the other view. The scopes will swap sides because the 2-up view never displays the same
scope in both the left and right views.
Screen Resolution Requirements for Display Views
Full Screen view:
1920 x 1200 pixels or 1920 x 1080 pixels. If your monitor doesn’t support these
resolutions, then ‘full screen’ view will not be available.
2-up view:
minimum resolution of 1280 x 800 pixels.
TIP Blackmagic UltraScope is perfect for quality control checks of your converted
output no matterwhich SDI, HDMI, component analog or composite analog video input
you use. Simplyconnect a Thunderbolt cable between your Teranex Processor and
your computer andlaunch Blackmagic UltraScope!
