current state of the Mini-Converter to a preset file for later recall.
Using this feature you can set up the converter for different applications, storing
each configuration (
Save Preset As...
) with a unique name for easy recall (
Open
Preset...
).
A
Revert to Factory Settings
menu item similarly allows you to change the
settings back to AJA’s factory defaults.
Operating Mini-Config
The Mini-Config application provides a graphic interface for viewing settings
and updating software. It consists of an information area at the top that shows
the available Mini-Converters attached to the computer via USB, with a graphical
rendering of the selected Mini-Converter showing all the connectors and their
current state.
Colored text next to the connectors indicates the signal type and what the Mini-
Converter is doing:
• Blue text indicates the values automatically selected
• Black text indicates values that you have manually selected
• Red text indicates the Mini-Converter is not detecting a signal, or cannot
operate with the current user settings.
NOTE: Even if no output device is detected, the SDI connector text still shows the signal it
is outputting.
