sure you back up anything important from your drive as you will lose everything on it when
it is formatted.

Connect the drive to your computer with an external dock, USB hub, or cable adapter.
2
Open the start menu or start screen and choose computer. Right-click on your drive.
3
From the contextual menu, choose format.
4
Set the file system to exFAT and the allocation unit size to 128 kilobytes.
5
Type a volume label, select quick format and click 'start'.
6
Your drive will quickly be formatted and made ready for recording.
Use the Format dialog box feature
in Windows to format your external
disk in the exFAT format
Capture Video
The capture video option supports legacy model ATEM switchers with USB capture features.
Capture Still
If you need to capture a still image from your broadcast simply click on the 'capture still' button.
This acts like a still store which lets you add capture files to the media pool. You can then
immediately load a still into the media player and use it in your broadcast, or save the media
pool to your computer.
To save the media pool:
1
Go to the menu bar at the top of your screen and click on 'file/save as'.
2
Choose the location you want to save to.
3
Click 'save'.
Now that your media pool is saved on your computer, you can access the captured stills and
use them in your graphics software.
