Setting External Devices Used for Preview

When performing editing, for example, while checking the display on an external monitor connected to your PC, the monitor used during editing or external devices such as Grass Valley products can be managed as preview devices, and details of these preview devices can be set.

Setting Preview Devices

Before setting preview devices, connect the external device (e.g. monitor) used for preview to the PC, and turn on the power.

For more information on settings when using a Grass Valley product as a preview device, see the user manual included with the product.

You can set the details of each device by clicking [Settings]. For more information on settings when using a Grass Valley product, see the user manual included with the product.
