Welcome

Welcome to DeckLink.
We hope you share our dream for the television industry to become a truly creative industry by allowing
anyone to have access to the highest quality video.
Previously high end television and post production required investment in millions of dollars of hardware,
however with DeckLink cards, even 10 bit uncompressed is now easily affordable. We hope you get years
of use from your new DeckLink card and have fun working with some of the world’s hottest television and
design software!
This instruction manual should contain all the information you’ll need on installing your DeckLink capture
card, although it’s always a good idea to ask a technical assistant for help if you have not installed hardware
cards into computers before. As DeckLink uses uncompressed video and the data rates are quite high,
you’ll need fast disk storage and a high-end Mac.
We think it should take you approximately 10 minutes to complete installation. Before you install DeckLink,
please check our website at www.blackmagic-design.com and click the support page to download the
latest updates to this manual and DeckLink driver software. Lastly, please register your DeckLink when
downloading software updates. We would love to keep you updated on new software updates and new
features for your DeckLink. Perhaps you can even send us your latest show reel of work completed on
your DeckLink and any suggestions for improvements to the software. We are constantly working on new
features and improvements, so we would love to hear from you!

Installing a DeckLink PCIe card in a Mac Pro
PCI slots and DeckLink cards
The PCI slots found in many modern computers allow users to add hardware such as DeckLink cards.
Computers have become faster over time and so too have the types of PCI slots used in computers.
DeckLink cards have been made for computers with PCI, PCI-X and PCI Express (PCIe) slots.
Mac Pro with PCI Express (PCIe) slots
The first generation of Mac Pro computers introduced the Intel processor and used PCIe slots. DeckLink
PCIe cards are fully compatible with the Intel-based Mac Pro’s and with PCIe slots. We recommend that the
top slot, slot 4, be used with DeckLink PCIe cards for maximum reliability. The number of PCI Express lanes
available to each PCIe slot is configurable using Apple’s Expansion Slot Utility which should automatically
appear upon startup after a PCIe card has been installed. The second PCI Express Profile should be chosen
in the Expansion Slot Utility for use with DeckLink cards, ie:
x16 Lane Graphics Slot + Two x4 Lane and One x1 Lane Slots
The Early 2008 generation of Mac Pro computers introduced PCI Express 2.0 slots as well as retaining the
original PCI Express slots. DeckLink PCIe cards should be used in slots 3 or 4 (the top two slots) of these
Macs. Slots 1 and 2 are PCI Express 2.0 slots which are usually reserved for graphics cards and should not
be used with DeckLink PCIe cards. The Expansion Slot Utility does not apply to the Early 2008 generation
of Mac Pro’s as the number of lanes is permanently set for each slot. If you attempt to open the Expansion
Slot Utility on this generation of Mac Pro, an error message will appear stating, “Expansion Slot Utility is not
intended to run on this system”. You can confirm your model of Mac Pro online by copying & pasting your
Mac Pro serial number, from the Hardware Overview information in System Profiler, in to the “Find by Serial
Number” field at http://support.apple.com/specs.
Regardless of which generation of Mac Pro you have, slot 4 can always be used with DeckLink PCIe cards.

Installing a DeckLink PCIe card in a Mac Pro
Please review the section in your Mac Pro user manual entitled “Adding PCI Express Cards” for information
on how to safely install PCI Express cards, including your DeckLink card.
1. Remove the power plug from the back of your Mac. This is a safety precaution before opening
your computer. Ensure that you are statically discharged by using a static strap.
2. Remove the side cover of your Mac to gain access to the PCIe slots.
3. Remove your DeckLink PCIe card from the protective static bag making sure you don’t touch the
gold connectors on the base of the card. These precautions should be taken when handling any
PCI card.
4. Remove the metal port access cover and screw from the back of your Mac.
5. Slot 4 is the recommended slot for DeckLink cards in the first generation of Mac Pro’s. Slot 3 or 4
(the top two slots) are the recommended slots for using a DeckLink PCIe card in an Early 2008 or
later model of Mac Pro. Insert your DeckLink PCIe card and ensure that it clicks firmly into place.
6. Secure the card by the screw.
7. The procedure for installing a RAID controller card is similar to the above.
8. Now replace the side cover of your Mac. Reconnect the power and start up the computer.
After installing your DeckLink PCIe card and closing the door on your Mac Pro, attach the supplied DeckLink
breakout cable to to the external multi-pin connector on your DeckLink card. Some card models ship with
both professional and consumer breakout cables for connecting to different video hardware. Attach the
appropriate breakout cable for your needs.
Install any model of DeckLink PCIe card in a spare slot as shown
in the above picture. The DeckLink HD Extreme 3D+ also has an
HDMI bracket, which installs in any spare port, and connects to
the rear of the card with the supplied HDMI cables.

Installing a DeckLink HDMI bracket
The DeckLinkHD Extreme3D+ includesan HDMIbracket.After installingthe DeckLinkHD Extreme 3D+card,
you will need a spare slot to install the HDMI bracket. The Mac Pro has a double-width graphics slot in slot 1.
If you have a regular-width graphics card in slot 1, you can install the HDMI bracket in the spare port which
would have been used by a double-width graphics card. If that port is already occupied by a double-width
graphics card, use a spare slot to install the HDMI bracket. If you don’t need HDMI input and output, there
is no necessity to install the HDMI bracket.
The Mac Pro includes a PCI bracket with two captive screws which is designed to secure all PCI Express
cards. The Mac Pro PCI bracket does not seem to firmly secure the HDMI bracket and so we have included
6 screws with your DeckLink HD Extreme 3D+. Use these screws, in place of the Mac Pro PCI bracket, to
firmly secure all your PCI Express cards, port access covers and the HDMI bracket belonging to DeckLink
HD Extreme 3D+.
After installing and securing the HDMI bracket, loop the included HDMI cables around any other installed
cards and plug them into the rear of the DeckLink HD Extreme 3D+ card. HDMI input is the lower connector
and HDMI output is the upper connector. You may wish to secure any excess cable length by using a cable
tie to neatly hold it in place.
Installing DeckLink Optical Fiber
DeckLink Optical Fiber installs in to your computer in just the same way as any other DeckLink card. However
the fiber optic module must be temporarily removed from the card before attempting to install the card
in a PCI Express slot. This is because the location of the protruding fiber optic module makes it awkward
to install the card in the PCI ports of many computer cases. Temporarily removing the fiber optic module
overcomes this obstacle to installation. The fiber optic module is a standard SFP transceiver module which
includes an LC connector port for attaching fiber optic cables. While other kinds of optical connectors exist,
the SMPTE standard for Optical Fiber SDI specifies that LC type optical fiber connectors be used and this
makes it easy for all compliant optical equipment to connect together.
Attach the supplied DeckLink breakout cable to the DeckLink card.
The DeckLink HD Extreme 3D+ card also includes a HDMI bracket
as pictured above.

Remove the power plug from the back of your Mac. This is a safety precaution before opening your computer.
Ensure that you are statically discharged by using a static strap.
Remove the side cover of your Mac to gain access to the PCIe slots.
Remove your DeckLink PCIe card from the protective static bag making sure you don’t touch the gold connectors
on the base of the card. These precautions should be taken when handling any PCI card. Ensure that the correct
PCIe slot is selected.
Remove the metal port access cover and screw from the back of your Mac.
Remove the protective cap from the LC connector port of the fiber optic module. Don’t throw it away as the protective
cap will be needed to prevent dust if the LC connector port is exposed when no fiber optic cables are connected.
Pull the wire tab outward to an angle of 90° to release the SFP module latch.
Grip the main portion of the SFP module, between your thumb and forefinger, and pull it from the SFP module port.
Do not pull the wire tab as it might break and prevent the SFP module from being removed.
Install DeckLink Optical Fiber in a suitable PCI Express slot in your computer, ensure that it clicks firmly into place
and secure the card with a screw.
Replace the SFP module and push the wire tab back to its original position.
If you are not ready to connect fiber optic cables to the LC connector port, replace the protective cap.
The procedure for installing a RAID controller card is similar to the above.
Now replace the side cover of your Mac. Reconnect the power and start up the computer.
