Using Blackmagic Converter Utility
It does not matter whether you launch Blackmagic Converter Utility before or after connecting the DVI
Extender to your computer with a USB cable. If DVI Extender is missing or is not detected for some reason,
the Converter Utility will report, “No converter connected” in its title bar. Otherwise it will report the name
of “DVI Extender” in the title bar.
If Converter Utility contains newer firmware than that currently installed in your DVI Extender, it will prompt
you to update the firmware. Just follow the on screen instructions to complete the firmware update. Once
the firmware update is complete, or if no firmware update is required, you will be able to make adjustments
to your DVI Extender using the Converter Utility.
Any adjustments made through the Converter Utility interface will immediately be saved to the DVI
Extender itself. This means that if power is lost to the DVI Extender, the new settings will be re-established
as soon as power is restored to the DVI Extender. This means you never need to worry about losing your
settings on the DVI Extender.
The Converter Utility interface is the same as that used with Blackmagic Design’s range of Mini Converter
and OpenGear Converter products, and is the same on both Mac OS X and Windows. Any features that
are not applicable to your DVI Extender will be grayed out and inactive. For example, DVI Extender does
not include any analog video and so all the adjustments for Video Levels are grayed out and inactive. DVI
Extender does not include AES/EBU audio and so those settings are also grayed out.
