The Cheesy Arena Audience Display overlay runs on one of the Mac Mini computers in the road case (Cheesy Arena / Overlay Computer). Once the overlay is setup on the cheesy arena computer, it should never need to be touched during the day.

Switch aux out 3 (aux monitor) to input 1 (overlays). Open a Chrome window pointed to the audience display (http://10.0.100.1:8080/displays/audience) and move this to the second video output (on the auxiliary screen). Note that the Edgecase utility restricts mouse movement - hold the Ctrl key to move to the second monitor. Full screen the Chrome window and move back to the other screen.

In the Blackmagic control utility, configure the overlay using the downstream key settings shown in the image below. Ensure that the "On Air" button under "DSK1" is selected. Note that Cheesy Arena is setup to use Luma Keying (hide areas that are black), not Chroma Keying. This is because Chroma Keying is not compatible with the downstream key.

Note that the audio from this computer will also need to be connected to the venue audio mixer in order to get match sounds. This is broken out as two RCA jacks on the patch panel.
