  Atem 1 M/E +bcf2000

  Posted by Gerald De bueger on March 21, 2013 at 2:06 pm

  Hi all,

  I just bought a new Behringer BCF2000 to manage the audio of the Atem Switcher… with no luck.

  Can someone help me configure the BCF2000 to worrk with the atem switcher?

  So far, the BCF2000 is connected to My laptop by USB (Laptop running Atem Switcher software.)
  My Laptop is connected to the Atem Switcher via Ethernet (via a router) and Via USB.

  But it doesnt work.

  Can someone point me to the right direction to get both working together?

  I’m clueless.

  Thank you very much

  Regards

  Gerald

  found the solution.
  I juste needed to upgrade firmware on the pc, setup BCF2000 to right mode and it worked then.
  Hope it helps

  Hi Alan,

  So What I did was:
  1. Set The BCF2000 to MCSO mode. I don’t remember 100% how i Did, but I think I unplug the power cable of the BCF.
  Then on the BCF, you have to press the 3rd or 4th button on the top left, close to the jogs while turning the BCF On.
  You should then see MCSO written in red in the screen of the BCF.
  If the procedure is not correct, tell me, i will try to find again on the internet how i did it.

  2. Connect your pc to the Atem via Ethernet, no usb needed.
  3. Update on your laptop the Atem Software to the latest version from BDM Website.
  4. Update your atem Switcher Firmware by connecting it via USB to your laptop
  5. Plug the usb cable of the BCF into your Laptop.
  6. Open The Atem Software control on your laptop.

  If your BCF2000 is in MCSO mode, you should see the button moving and you should be able to use them.

  Hope it is correct.

  Regards

  Gerald
