    Navigate within Production Truck to the Preferences menu, the gear icon in the center, and under Audio/Video, select Program Output 1.

    Select the UltraStudio Mini Monitor or UltraStudio Monitor 3G.

The program feed is now outputting to the monitor.

Wireless through NDI

  1. In order to output a program feed wirelessly from Production Truck, download NDI Tools on Computer B. Specifically, download NewTek NDI Video Monitor.

  2. Within Production Truck on Computer A, navigate to Preferences>Audio/Video. Select NDI Output as the source option.

  3. On Computer B, open NewTek NDI Video Monitor.

  4. Navigate up to the MacOS navigation bar at the top and select File, then select Computer A, and select PT Program Output 1.

The program feed from Production Truck populates on the Video Monitor on Computer B.
