If you are setting up a highly detailed and complex virtual set, or your green screen requires
some help from Ultimatte, you can use Ultimatte Software Control on your computer or a Smart
Remote 4 hardware panel to make precise adjustments to the various matte controls and hand
craft your final composite. This includes features such as screen correction which can help
improve your composite if your green screen has uneven lighting or blemishes that are visible
in your auto key.
We believe you will enjoy exploring your Ultimatte and developing your own workflow to
produce amazing virtual environments. You can even build larger setups using multiple
cameras and an Ultimatte unit on each camera so you can have different camera angles on
your virtual set. When constructing graphics and backgrounds that are tailored to each angle,
the possibilities are truly endless!
Please keep reading this manual for information on how to use your Ultimatte's front panel to
change settings, plus how to control the unit using Ultimatte Software Control.
Monitor Cascade
The monitor cascade feature lets you view the monitor output from up to eight Ultimatte units
via one single unit.
To connect up to eight Ultimatte units together and use the monitor cascade feature, each
unit needs to be connected to common analog reference or to foreground sources that are
locked together. The Ultimatte units can then be daisy chained via their monitor inputs and
outputs, with the last unit plugged into a monitor. Then when you select any of the eight units
in Ultimatte Software Control, the monitor output for that particular unit can be viewed from the
monitor output on the last unit.
To enable the monitor cascade feature in Ultimatte Software Control, click on the 'info'
icon in the files and information section, and check the 'monitor cascade' checkbox in the
'configuration' tab.
Switching the monitor cascade feature on or off will affect the SDI monitor output but does not
affect your Ultimatte's front panel LCD. The LCD on the front panel always displays the program
output for that unit.
Below is an example showing how two Ultimatte units are daisy chained for cascade monitoring.
