Low Latency
Destination units can be set to low latency or clean switch modes. Low latency
minimizes any delay in signal from source to destination by only several lines, however
when switching between sources there may be a small disturbance as the source is
resynchronized. To avoid any disturbance or glitches when changing sources, turn low
latency off. This sets the unit to use clean switch mode, which removes any disturbance
when changing sources using the same video format, but adds 1 to 2 frames of latency.
Network
Select DHCP if you want to let the network automatically identify each unit with its own
IP address, or 'static' if you want to enter your own network settings.
Information
This setting is an indicator that provides information on the source Ethernet connection,
such as the source port and IP address.
PTP
The PTP, or precision time protocol setting, indicates whether the unit is a master or
slave. The master is provided by a PTP grandmaster device somewhere in the network.
If your network does not contain a PTP grandmaster, one Teranex Mini IP Video 12G will
be automatically set as the master unit, and all other connected units will lock to that
master unit.
Source List
All available Teranex Mini IP Video 12G source units will be displayed in a list using their
custom name entered using Blackmagic Teranex Setup. On a destination unit, press the
'set' button to open the list, select your desired source using the rotary knob, and press
'set' again to confirm.
NOTE
Even if there is only one source unit connected to the network, you must
still select it from the source list on the destination unit.
Changing Settings using Switches
On the original basic panel of your Teranex Mini you'll see a rubber dust cover which protects a
set of small switches used for settings. The 'on/off' switches are used to configure internal
settings and you can change them using the tip of a pen.

You'll find a switch settings diagram printed on the base of your IP Video 12G. Ensure your
switch settings correspond to the legend by observing the switch numbers from 1 to 8,
left to right.
