===Connecting to an ATEM directly===
Sometimes YSTV finds itself in a position where it needs to connect to an ATEM without having a proper network connection in place. In this case, an ethernet cable can be connected directly between the ATEM and a laptop running the ATEM control software. To do so, first check the IP address of the ATEM using a USB cable and the ATEM Setup utility (the IP will be something like 192.168.1.240).
Then set a static IP on the laptop. On windows:
* Open '''Control Panel'''
* Click '''Network and Internet'''
* Click '''Network and Sharing Center'''
* Click '''Change Adapter Settings'''
* Right click on the ethernet adapter and select '''Properties'''
* Select '''Internet Protocol Version 4'''
* Click '''Properties'''
* If the IP of the ATEM was 192.168.1.240, set the IP of the laptop to 192.168.1.1 and the gateway to 192.168.1.1
* Set the subnet mask to 255.255.255.0
* Click OK and close the adapter options menu
You will then be able to connect to the ATEM using its IP address.
