Updating the Internal Software
It is important to ensure that power is connected to the Teranex Mini before connecting a USB
cable between the computer and converter.
1
Power your converter.
2
Attach a USB cable from the computer to the converter or connect via Ethernet launch
the Teranex setup utility.
If the converter is missing or not detected, Blackmagic Teranex Setup will report, "No converter
connected" in the title bar. Otherwise, it will report the model name of your Teranex Mini.
If Blackmagic Teranex Setup contains newer internal software than that currently installed in
your Teranex Mini, it will prompt you to update. Just follow the on screen instructions to
complete the update. Once the internal software update is complete, you will be able to make
adjustments to your Teranex Mini using the Teranex setup utility.
If you have previously set your Teranex Mini to use a static
IP address, you can find it on your network by entering the
IP Address from the Teranex setup utility home screen.
Installing Teranex Mini Smart Panel
You can also change settings using the optional Teranex Mini Smart Panel. This control panel
mounts to the front of your Teranex Mini and replaces the original basic panel that shipped with
the converter. You get fast access to your settings using buttons and a rotary knob and you can
see the input on the built in LCD.
Installing your optional Smart Panel is easy and because the panels are hot swappable you
don't even need to turn off your Teranex Mini converter when installing it.
1
Remove the two M3 screws on each side of your converter's basic front panel
using a Pozidriv 2 screwdriver and gently pull the panel away from the front of your
Teranex Mini.
2
On the inside of the basic panel, you'll notice a small clear plastic tube attached to the
bottom corner. This tube directs light from the LED inside the unit to illuminate the status
indicator on the basic panel. This tube should stay attached to the basic front panel.
TIP
If reattaching the basic front panel, make sure the light tube is aligned with
the slot in the front of the unit.
