Selecting a Return Feed

The two return buttons on the front panel can be used in the same way as the PGM button
on the camera, to switch the feed on the LCD, Blackmagic URSA Studio Viewfinder and
HD monitoring outputs between the camera view and program return view.
The two return buttons marked 'ret 1' and 'ret 2' switch between two chosen return feeds.
The three way rotary switches next to the 'ret 1' and 'ret 2' buttons assign which return feed you
would like to view when you press the corresponding button to the left of the switch.
These positions on the rotary switch relate to the 'return in' 1, 2 and 3 SDI connectors that are
on the back of the Studio Fiber Converter.
The return buttons and three way rotary
switches allow you to select which return feed
to view when the return buttons are pressed
Press and hold one of the return buttons to see the selected program feed. The program feed
will continue to display whilst the return button is being held. Double press the return button to
lock the display to the return feed. Pressing the return button again will exit the return feed and
return to the camera view.
This means you can quickly and easily adjust which of the three return feeds being sent from
Blackmagic Studio Fiber Converter you would like to have fast access to on the two return
buttons. For example the three return feeds might be the switcher's program output feed
complete with graphics, a teleprompter feed and a feed direct from another camera.
By using these switches you could assign 'ret 1' to be your program feed permanently and then
use the second 'ret 2' button to check what is being sent to the teleprompter, and to
occasionally switch it to check framing on another camera when you need to match its
framing or angle.
There are also return buttons on the left side of the unit, marked 'ret 1' and 'ret 2' that provide
additional access to view the return feeds when operating your camera from the side. They
perform the same function as the return buttons on the front of the unit.
