the top right of the monitor. This must also be actuated after switching
on the main switch.
ATEM Mini Extreme
ATEM Mini's monitor is turned on and off using the main switch on the
case. All necessary menu settings can be set using buttons on the right
side of the monitor base. For advanced settings, please refer to the mo‐
nitor's operating instructions included in the scope of delivery.
The inclination of the monitor can be ergonomically adjusted to the
right viewing angle by opening it. (Image 23) To do this, hold the moni‐
tor in the middle of the upper frame and loosen it from the two holding
magnets with a slight tug.
Before closing the case lid, return the monitor to its original position. Both
magnets must be securely contacted.
Advice for use
HDMI
Since the introduction of this
standard, HDMI cables have
been available in different ver‐
sions, currently up to version
2.1. These differ technically,
among other things, in the
maximum transferrable data
rate, the image resolution and
frequency, the sound transmission and the color space formats.
All HDMI cables used in the BSS Case for ATEM Mini are at least HDMI
specification 2.0 compliant. This corresponds to a maximum image re‐

solution of 4k 60Hz. Since the ATEM Mini can process a maximum of
1080p 60Hz signals, there are enough reserves.
HDMI is a digital data transmission. In contrast to analog signal trans‐
missions, in which the signal gradually loses level over the length of the
transmission path, this is either available in full quality or fails complete‐
ly. Therefore, please note the following information for trouble-free ope‐
ration.

ATEM Mini - differences in HDMI inputs
The HDMI input 1 on ATEM Mini is what is known as a “low-latency” in‐
put. Use this for all HDMI connections with cable lengths over 5m or for
signals that may not be correctly received at inputs 2-4.
Reliable signal transmission with HDMI depends on several factors:
Specification and quality of HDMI cables
• Use only HDMI cables with specification 2.0 or better. These are also
commercially available under the name "HDMI Premium High
Speed".
• Use cables that are as short as possible.
• With cable lengths >5m, the shielding and the cable structure are
very important. Only use multiple (triple) shielded, high-quality ca‐
bles.
• Wherever possible, avoid cable lengths of 10m or more. Alternative‐
ly, use active signal converters on SDI, CAT5, fiber optics or similar
transmission variants that allow longer cable routes due to their spe‐
cification. HDMI cables with a signal repeater can also work, but
should be tested with the signal source and receiver (ATEM Mini).
Signal source
The signal source is also crucial. Depending on the device, one cable
may work fine on one source, but the same cable on the same ATEM
