Connectors
Use the connectors on your Ultimatte’s rear panel to connect power, video inputs, video
outputs and to connect your Ultimatte to a computer or network. On smaller units that have
fewer inputs you can load stills into the media pool and assign them to specific sources instead
of plugging in those sources via a connector. Refer to the ‘Using the Media Pool’ section for
more information.

1 Power
Power your Ultimatte by connecting a standard IEC cable to the rear panel. If your
Ultimatte model has an additional IEC power input, you can connect to another power
source for redundancy. For example, connecting the second input to an uninterrupted
power supply, or UPS, will instantly take over if the primary source fails.
2 USB
On larger Ultimatte units, use the USB port on the rear panel to connect your
Ultimatte to your computer. This allows you to update and configure your Ultimatte
with Blackmagic Ultimatte Setup. On smaller Ultimatte models the USB port is on the
front panel.
3 Ethernet
The Ethernet port lets you connect to a computer, network or Smart Remote 4 so you
can control your Ultimatte using Ultimatte Software Control. For more information,
refer to the ‘connecting your computer’ and ‘connecting to a network’ sections later
inthis manual.
4 Reference
Most Ultimatte models feature reference input and output connectors. You can connect
a reference signal to the reference input and sync your Ultimatte to an external master
sync source. The reference out lets you loop the reference input to another Ultimatte
orvideo equipment.
5 GPIO
On larger Ultimatte models, this connector is for use with an external GPI interface.
GPI inputs and outputs let you trigger Ultimatte preset files as GPI events. For more
information refer to the ‘GPI and tally settings’ section.
