Getting Started; Installing The Software; Plugging In Power; Connecting To A Computer - Blackmagic Design Cintel Manual De Instalación Y Funcionamiento

Getting Started

After unpacking and mounting your scanner, getting started is as simple as plugging in power,
connecting your computer via Thunderbolt, launching Blackmagic DaVinci Resolve, and lacing
your film. If you want to immediately see your scan on an external monitor, you can load film,
manually tension it, and output it to an HDMI monitor. To learn more about this, refer to the
'lacing film,' and 'playback controls' section of this manual.

Installing the Software

Capture controls for your scanner are located in DaVinci Resolve's film scanner panel, therefore,
the first thing you'll need to do when you're ready to capture your scan is download and install
DaVinci Resolve Studio. Your scanner comes with a dongle for DaVinci Resolve to allow you to
use the full version of DaVinci Resolve.
Download the latest version of the Cintel Scanner software from the Blackmagic Design support
center at: www.blackmagicdesign.com/support
Once your download has completed, unzip the file and double click on it. This will open a setup
folder. Now simply run the installer files contained within the setup folder and follow the
prompts to install the software on your computer.
You can also use the Cintel Scanner SDK to develop your own software to control Cintel
Scanner and integrate it with your workflow. For more information, see the 'Software
Development Kit' section.

Plugging in Power

Now that all the required software is installed on your computer, you'll need to plug power into
your scanner so that you can lace up your film.
Power your scanner by connecting a standard IEC cable to the AC power socket on the lower
right side of the back panel. Your scanner's power indicator LED will glow green when power
is connected.

Connecting to a Computer

There are two ways to connect your Cintel Scanner to a host computer. The Thunderbolt 3
port can be used by Windows and Mac computers, while the PCIe external port can be used
by Windows and Linux computers when used with the PCIe cable kit from Blackmagic Design.
You can also connect to an external monitor via your scanner's HDMI port for focusing or
preview purposes. The Thunderbolt 3, PCIe, and HDMI ports are located on the lower right
side of your scanner.
