from a single source, such as the Blackmagic Sync Generator, to genlock all your
equipment together! Select between the input and external reference source via the

the manual.

HDMI
The HDMI connections are perfect for when you're using the unit as a field recorder
and connecting to an HDMI enabled display for playback. For signals from standard
definition to 2160p60, the HDMI input will auto detect SDR and HDR video standards
when the signal is flagged with the correct metadata. This means you can display
stunning HDR images on HDR enabled HDMI screens using the HDMI out.

Analog Audio
You can connect up to 4 channels of balanced analog audio in or out via 3 pin XLR
connectors. Select your audio input using the 'audio' tab in the dashboard menu.
See the 'audio' section later in this manual for more information.

Monitor Out
An 3G-SDI monitor out connection provides a downscaled output with overlays so that
you can monitor on an external display. The overlays include focus and exposure tools
such as grid and false color that you can toggle on and off as well as drive icons, audio
meters and a time counter display. For more information on the Monitor SDI settings,
including how to output a clean signal, see the 'monitor' page in the dashboard menu
later in this manual.
16
Ext Disk
Connect a flash disk to the USB-C connector on the rear so you can record to external
disks at up to 10Gb/s. You can also connect to multi port USB-C hubs or the MultiDock
10G allowing you to connect one or multiple SSDs for far greater storage capacity!
Recording to high speed SSD's and hard drives reduces the risk of problems with your
media compared to CFast 2.0 cards. For more information on external disks, see the
'storage media' section later in this manual.

via quad link 12G-SDI.
Using the quad link 12G-SDI connections you can use HyperDeck Extreme in 8K
workflows. Connect it to ATEM Constellation 8K as a playback or recording device that
