The Blackmagic Design CONVMCAUDS2 is an active video converter designed for professionals who need to embed analog or AES/EBU audio into SDI video signals up to 1080p60. Its key benefit is seamlessly integrating professional audio sources with SDI workflows without the complexity or cost of Ultra HD models. A potential caveat is that it requires an external power adapter, and does not support USB power.

Verify that all SDI and audio input connections are secure. Ensure the video source is active and outputting a supported format. Check that the external power adapter is properly connected and providing power. Confirm the audio source is sending a signal and that the correct audio input type (analog/AES/EBU) is selected.
Check the audio source levels to ensure they are not clipping. Verify that the audio cables are properly terminated and shielded. Ensure the correct input type (analog or AES/EBU) is being used and that the signal is clean from the source.
This unit is primarily a hardware converter and may not require software for basic operation. If configuration software is being used, ensure compatibility with your operating system and that the USB connection (if used for configuration) is functional and drivers are installed.
Try using a different, high-quality SDI cable. Ensure the SDI source and destination devices are functioning correctly and set to compatible modes. Avoid excessively long SDI cable runs if possible, or use a re-clocker if signal degradation is suspected.
Setup: Connect your SDI video source to the SDI input and your audio source (mixers, analog decks) to the balanced analog or AES/EBU 1/4-inch inputs. Connect the converter to a power source using the included 12V external power adapter. Finally, connect the SDI output to your destination device (router, monitor, recorder) using an SDI cable. Ensure all connections are secure.
Compatibility: This converter is compatible with SD and HD SDI formats up to 1080p60. It supports RGB and YUV color spaces, with 4:2:2 and 4:4:4 chroma subsampling. It operates with Windows (10 and later) and Mac OS X (10.15 Catalina, 11.0 Big Sur) operating systems for potential configuration, although its primary function is hardware-based conversion. It is designed to work with standard SDI devices such as cameras, VCRs, monitors, converters, and splitters.
Care: Keep the converter in a clean, dry environment, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures (0-40°C operating). Avoid exposing it to liquids. Clean the exterior with a soft, dry cloth. Ensure ventilation slots are not blocked to prevent overheating. Do not attempt to open the unit for repairs; refer to qualified service personnel.
