Front panel
1. Program bus
The buttons on the program bus are used to switch sources to the program
output of the switcher. The selected source has a red light.
2. Preview bus
The preview buttons are used for selecting the input that you switch to in the
next transition, by using the cut or auto button, or by using the fader. The
selected input on the preview bus has a green light, this will be red during a
transition.
3. Key buttons
By pressing these buttons, the corresponding upstream keyer is switched on.
Pushing the button once more switches the keyer off. These keys can also be
assigned as macro keys.

4. LCD panel
During normal operation, the first line of the LCD shows the model of the
connected switcher, and the second line shows a status line.
On this status line you find from left to right: the selected clip in mediaplayer 1, in
mediaplayer 2, the selected color, and optional the selected macro. These
selections correspond to rotaries 1 to 3, and optional 4: turning rotary 1 changes
the selected clip in mediaplayer 1 and so on.
5. Rotary 1 to 3
Rotary 1 to 3 are located directly above buttons 9, 10 and 'col' on the preview
and program bus. By default these buttons are used for selecting mediaplayer 1
and 2, and color.
6. Fader
To manually perform a transition from the source selected in the program bus to
the source in the preview bus. The transition effect is set in the ATEM software.
7. Downstream key buttons
To bring the downstream keyers on air. The downstream keyers are faded in and
out, the duration of this fade can be set in the Blackmagic ATEM software, and
can then be stored in the mixer.
8. Rotary 4
Can be used to control the option port (with Play button), macro's, or a
hyperdeck player or recorder. See menus.

Side Panel
1. Network connector
2. Power input
3. Option port
Connecting Mix-iT
Before you connect Mix-iT, be sure that the ATEM switcher functions with/ is
recognized by the PC or Mac software.
The Mix-iT controller needs a network connection to the ATEM switcher, this can
be realized with a cable direct to the ATEM, or via a network hub or switch that
connects both devices.
The Mix-iT kan be powered with the supplied main-adapter (7.5V, 500mA), or
through Power over Ethernet if your network switch supports this.
Power up Mix-iT by either connecting the adapter to the mains or by connecting
the network cable with Power over Ethernet. The panel now tries to connect to
the ATEM switcher, if this succeeds the mixer model is shown in the LCD, along
with a statusline (indicating selected media and colour).
If no connection can be established, a message appears in the screen. Check
cabling and IP settings.

Menus
When pressing rotary 1 to 3 you switch to the menus:
Rotary 1 is for the IP-configuration menu,
rotary 2 for button mapping and
rotary 3 for controlling the aux outputs.
IP config menu
Controlling the ATEM switchers is done via a network connection. This can simply be a
cable between switcher and controller, or both devices can be connected via a hub or
switch. In that case, you can connect for instance a Mix-iT, a PC running ATEM
software, and a tally box to the switcher, all at the same time. Changes on one controller
are reflected on the other connected devices.
After you have made the physical connection, you have to check the IP parameters.
Each device or node requires a unique address, and must be told the address of the
ATEM switcher.
Enter the IP configuration menu by shortly pressing rotary one.
Next, you can step through the menu items by turning the rotary knob. Clicking once
more enters that selected menu item.
1. Load Defaults
If you enter this option and confirm by selecting and clicking 'OK', the default
settings for the IP-settings are loaded. These settings are:
192.168.10.99 for the Mix-iT,
and 192.168.10.240 for the ATEM switcher.
If you haven't previously changed the IP addresses of your ATEM switcher or
Mix-iT, they already have these default addresses, and the Mix-iT should connect
immediately.
2. Mix-iT IP address
If you enter this, you can change the IP Address of the Mix-it. You should enter
an address that differs from the ATEM address, but it must be located in the
same subnet. Almost always, only the last number of 3 digits will differ from the
switcher address.
3. Netmask
In most networks this should be 255.255.255.0.

4. ATEM switcher
This is an important setting, if it is not correct there will be no connection between
Mix-iT and ATEM switcher. You can find the switcher address in the preferences
window of the ATEM control software for PC or Mac, or with the ATEM setup
utility via USB.
For more information on this topic see the Blackmagic ATEM operation manual -
getting started.
5. Gateway Address
This address is only used if the ATEM switcher and Mix-iT are not located in the
same subnet. The default value for the gateway address is 192.168.10.1
6. Save & Exit
This entry allows you to save the changed IP parameters. If you made any
changes, the Mix-iT will now restart, and connect, using the new parameters.
You may have to powercycle the panel. If you select cancel, changes will not be
stored.
7. Firmware update
To update the firmware, you can download the update utility for Mac or PC from
the website 'Mix-iT.tv'. Here you will also find instructions on how to proceed.
If you accidently selected to update the firmware, powercycling the Mix-iT twice
should bring you back in business.
8. Version info
This entry shows the version of the ATEM -firmware and the version of the Mix-it
firmware. If your ATEM firmware version is lower than 2.12, we advise you to
update the switcher via the USB connector with the ATEM setup utility.
9. MAC address
The MAC address is the unique hardware code for your Mix-IT, and is read-only.
Your network administrator may need it.
Note: If you push and hold down any rotary for 2 seconds, you will return to the status
display. Beware that all changes will be lost in that case.

Button map menu
By clicking rotary 2, you enter the button menu. In this menu, you can tailor the Mix-iT to
your needs.
1. Map busses
Here you can select Preview /program (which is standard) or swap the preview
and program bus.
If you use the Mix-iT with a 2 M/E ATEM switcher, you must choose if you want
to control M/E one or two. By using an extra Mix-iT, you can control both ME's at
the same time.
The custom entry allows you to connect each bus to preview, program or one of
the aux outputs.
Finally return brings you back to the button menu.
2. Map Buttons
When you select default, this resets the mapping:
Buttons 1 to 8 are connected to inputs 1 to 8, buttons 9 and 10 control the
mediaplayers, and 'col' is used to select the colors.
SDI first arranges the inputs in such a way, that SDI signals start from switch 1.
This relates to the model of the ATEM switcher.
When you select custom, you can fully customize the link between sources and
buttons. Buttons 1 to 11 can be individually connected to the available sources in
the mixer, but you can also disable a button. Selecting button 0 returns you to the
button menu.
The entry 'key 1-4' is for setting the function of these buttons. By default they are
used to select upstream keyers 1 to 4, but each button can be changed to start a
macro instead. Macro's are recorded in the ATEM control software for PC and
Mac, and are stored in the switcher.
