Getting Started<br />

Button Mapping<br />

<strong>ATEM</strong> software and hardware control panels support button mapping so you can assign your most<br />

important sources, especially cameras, to the most accessible buttons in the program and preview rows.<br />

Occasional sources can be assigned to less prominent buttons. Button mapping is set independently for<br />

each control panel so button mapping set on a software control panel will not affect the button mapping<br />

set on a hardware control panel.<br />

<strong>ATEM</strong> Software Control Button Mapping<br />

In <strong>ATEM</strong> Software Control, select Preferences from the File menu in Windows or from the <strong>ATEM</strong> Software<br />

Control menu in Mac OS X. The Preferences window will open and display a list of buttons for your <strong>ATEM</strong><br />

switcher. Each of these buttons has a pulldown menu listing the inputs and the name of each input.<br />

Select the desired input for each button and then click Ok.<br />

<strong>ATEM</strong> Broadcast Panel Button Mapping and Button Brightness Level<br />

Button Mapping on <strong>ATEM</strong> Broadcast Panels is easy. On the <strong>ATEM</strong> Broadcast Panel, go to the System<br />

Control block and press PANEL SETUP followed by BUTTON MAP. Once in the button map menu, you<br />

will notice the System Control window shows a Button number and an Input number. Turn the knob under<br />

Selected Button to select the desired button which you want to associate with an input. You can do the<br />

same thing by selecting the desired button in the Select row. The buttons in the Select row correspond to<br />

the buttons directly below them in the Preview and Program rows. Next, turn the knob under Selected Input<br />

to set an input for the selected button. Choose another button you wish to map and repeat until all the<br />

buttons are mapped with desired inputs.<br />

If you want to change the brightness of the buttons, press the BUTTON LEVEL button and rotate the knob<br />

under Brightness until the desired brightness level is seen.<br />

Once you have configured all the button settings, press the SAVE button to save the new button map and<br />

brightness level, or REVERT to discard changes.<br />

Saving Switcher Settings<br />

You can save many settings in your <strong>ATEM</strong> switcher to use them again whenever you restart your switcher.<br />

Saved settings include parameters in all keyers as well as colors and transitions. You can also use this feature<br />

to recall your aux output settings. When you have your switcher set up the way you want it, go to the File<br />

menu in <strong>ATEM</strong> Software Control and select Save Startup State. Now whenever you restart your switcher,<br />

it will start up with the saved settings by default. If you want to clear the startup state and revert to the factory<br />

settings on restart, go to the File menu and select Clear Startup State.

Hooray! Your file is uploaded and ready to be published.
