Fairlight Console Components
The Fairlight console is available in 4 configurations that let you build your console to suit
yourproduction requirements. Fairlight modules, for example the Fairlight Console Channel
Control, Fairlight Console Channel Fader, Fairlight Console Audio Editor, and the Fairlight
Console LCD Monitor, are installed into the module slots within the Fairlightconsole chassis.
Fairlight 3 Bay Console
The illustration above shows a fully assembled Fairlight 3 Bay console. In a typical 3 bay
configuration, the Fairlight Console Channel Control and Fairlight Console Channel Fader
modules are installed on each side of the Fairlight Console Audio Editor. However you can
place modules in any position you prefer, as your Fairlight console is fully customizable.
On a 4 and 5 bay configuration, additional modules can be installed on each side.

Fairlight 2 Bay Console
The 2 bay configuration sets the Fairlight Console Channel Control module and Fairlight
Console Channel Fader module next to the Fairlight Console Audio Editor
NOTE You can arrange the Fairlight modules on either side of the audio editor and
change the position of the mouse area. For example you may be left handed and want
to have the mouse on the left side of the audio editor module. Fairlight modules are
mounted in a module bracket that can be lifted out and repositioned. Keep reading
thismanual for more information on how to install the Fairlight modules into the
modulebrackets.
A Fairlight Console Channel Rack Kit is also available from Blackmagic Design resellers
if you need to install additional devices in your console. For example Blackmagic
HyperDeck recorders or SmartScope Duo monitors.
Additionally, you can install Fairlight Console LCD Monitor Blank, Fairlight Console
Channel Control Blank, or Fairlight Console Channel Fader Blank kits.
6Fairlight Console Components
Unpacking and Assembling
Your Fairlight console is shipped in a large, strong and secure road case containing the
Fairlightconsole chassis and legs. Each Fairlight module is shipped separately. Refer to the
technical specifications’ section of this manual for a complete list of size and weight
measurements foreach Fairlight configuration.
After opening your Fairlight console's road case, carefully remove the console chassis and
place it gently onto a solid, stable surface strong enough to support the weight of the
chassis and legs.
NOTE Please note that an empty Fairlight 3 bay console weighs 110kg and up to 150kg
for a 5 bay console. The console is built strong and is clearly too heavy to be
unpacked by one person. You will need to make sure that all lifting is performed by
4people using the correct lifting techniques, such as bending your knees, keeping a
straight back and lifting with careful, controlled movements.
The surface your Fairlight console will be placed onto for assembly needs to be high enough
from the ground to ensure the legs are elevated when attaching to the chassis. Allow for at
least550mm. A scissor lift trolley or similar utility is the perfect solution for assembly.
7Unpacking and Assembling
Alternatively, if assembling the console with two or more people, you can stand the chassis on
its rear panel while attaching the legs and feet. Refer to the next section named 'Alternative
Assembly with Two or More People' for more details.
Tools Required
For assembly you will need the following tools:
1 x Torque wrench with
18 mm socket capable of 35 Nm.
1 x Pozidriv 2 torque driver capable
of 0.45 Nm for M3 and M4 screws.
We recommend using torque tools for tightening only, and using a regular wrench or driver
forremoving the screws.
Attaching the Legs to the Console Chassis
The road case contains two legs that attach to each side of the console chassis. When
purchasing a Fairlight console, you can choose from two separate leg designs.
Fairlight Console Leg Kit 0 degrees
This option places the console's surface level to the ground.
Fairlight Console Leg Kit 8 degrees
This option places the console at an 8 degree angle so the console leans toward the operator.
Before attaching the legs to the chassis, you should first secure the feet to each leg.
Each assembled leg weighs 8 to 10 kilograms, so please take care when lifting.
The feet are attached to the console chassis
with their length longer at one end. Ensure the
longer end is facing the front of the console.
When the 8 degrees leg kit is attached,
your Fairlight console will be slightly
higher and tilted towards you.
8Unpacking and Assembling
To attach the foot to each leg:
1 Lay the leg on its side with the cover panel facing upwards. Remove the
two M12 screws fromthe end including the small support plate.
After removing the support plate from the standard 0 degrees
leg kit, it is then used to secure the foot to the leg
NOTE If you are attaching the 8 degrees leg kit, be sure to keep the support
plate between the foot and the leg. An additional support plate is used to
secure the foot to the leg, as shown below.
2 Align the foot to the end of the leg and hold it in place. Make sure the rectangular
cutouts on the bottom of the leg and support plate are completely aligned.
3 Now place the support plate on the bottom of the foot and secure the
foot to the leg using the two M12 screws. Tighten to atorque of 35 Nm.
4 Repeat steps 1 to 3 for the second leg.
9Unpacking and Assembling
To attach the legs to the console chassis:
1 Remove the side cover from each leg by unscrewing the four M3 screws from the
opposite side of the leg using a Pozidriv 2 screwdriver.
2 Remove the four M12 leg fastening screws from each side of the console chassis.
3 Align each leg to the side of the console by mounting it against the guide pins on
the chassis.
4 Secure the legs to the chassis with the leg fastening screws and tighten the screws to
atorque of 35 Nm.
The side cover for each leg can be reattached later. Leaving the cover off at this point
of assembly provides access to the inside of the leg for when you are wiring up the
panels inside the console.
5 Carefully lower the console from the support surface and place it on the floor.
Werecommend placing the assembled chassis as close to its intended position as
possible, as once Fairlight modules are installed, the overall weight of the unit will
increase substantially. Ensure there is enough space at the rear of the chassis to
replace the back panel before securing your console into position.
10Unpacking and Assembling
Alternative Assembly with Two or More People
If you don't have access to a scissor lift trolley or similar utility and have someone tohelp you,
you can stand the chassis on its rear panel and attach the legs and feet from this position.
To assemble the legs and feet:
1 After removing the console chassis from its road case, gently lean the chassis onto its
rear panel. Ensure a second person holds the chassis in place so it does not slip.
Lean the console chassis onto its rear panel so the front is facing upwards
2 With the console chassis securely held in place, attach the legs as shown in the
previous section.
3 Attach the feet to each leg.
11Unpacking and Assembling
4 Once the legs and feet are attached, lean the chassis onto its feet into its
standing position.
Lean the Fairlight console onto its feet, ready to install the Fairlight panels
With the legs and feet attached to the console chassis, you can now install the Fairlight panels.
Installing the Fairlight Panels
The most common layout Fairlight audio engineers use for mounting the modules is to place
the Fairlight Console Audio Editor directly in front of the operator, the Fairlight Console Channel
Control and Channel Fader modules on each side, and the channel control modules above
each channel fader module. Their respective LCD monitors are installed along the top with the
monitor infill module. The small surface in between the Fairlight modules is for a mouse
or trackball.
If you don't have all the modules for a full console, you can fill in the spaces with blank panels
until you are ready to add more modules later. You can add modules any time you like and as
you need them based on your production requirements.
12Unpacking and Assembling
To install the Fairlight modules into the console chassis:
1 Remove the back panel from the chassis by unscrewing the M3 screws using
a Pozidriv 2 screwdriver, and keep the panel and screws nearby in a safe place.
Removing the back panel provides better access to the inside of the chassis
when installing the Fairlight modules.
2 Each Fairlight module has its own module bracket you can easily lift and remove
from the chassis. This lets you install modules into their brackets on a bench where
there is more space, then easily mount the assembled brackets into the chassis.
Hold each bracket arm and gently rotate the bracket up from the chassis. The bracket
hinges from the rear, allowing you to free the bracket from the chassis by pulling it
away from the hinge pin.
3 With the module bracket removed from the chassis, place it on a stable surface, ready
forattaching the Fairlight modules. We recommend installing modules starting with
the Fairlight Console LCD monitor at the top, the Fairlight Console Channel Control
module in the middle, then the Fairlight Console Channel Fader module closest to the
audio operator.
13Unpacking and Assembling
4 Secure each module to the bracket usingthe M4 Pozidriv screws supplied with your
Fairlight module. Tighten to a torque of 1.5 Nm.
5 You can now place the assembled module bracket back into the chassis by
repositioning its rear latchesover the chassis hinge pins and gently lowering the
bracket into place.
NOTE When installing a bracket with Fairlight panel modules attached, we
recommend one person holding thefront edge of the bracket, with a second
supporting the bracket from underneath the chassis as it is lowered into place.
This lets you lower the bracket gently without dropping the edge at the
finalmoment.
After installation, the brackets can be lifted again by pushing from underneath
with one hand, and lifting the front of the bracket with the other. Each bracket
has a bay lift support brace you can swing out from underneath. This lets you
safely prop the bracket away from the chassis when you need to access the
interior for cabling.
14Unpacking and Assembling
Lower the support brace by holding the brace handles and rotating the brace down from the bracket.
Allow the feet of the brace to rest inside and against the front of the chassis so it cannot move.
Attaching the Monitor Infill Module
Inside the road case, you’ll find a small cardboard box. This box contains the LCD monitor
infill module that is installed next to the Fairlight console's LCD monitors.
Remove the infill bracket from the chassis following the same procedure used for the other
module brackets.
To attach the infill module:
1 Place the monitor infill module into the neck of the bracket.
2 Secure the infill module to the bracket using the supplied M4 Pozidriv screws.
Tighten to a torque of 0.45Nm.
3 Place the bracket back into the chassis.
15Unpacking and Assembling
Powering the Modules
Each Fairlight module is powered independently via its own power input. Simply plug each
module into your mains power supply using a standard IEC power cable.
We recommend using five way power boards to distribute power to the Fairlight modules, with
each power board to supply up to five modules only. Ensure the power boards are not daisy
chained and are each independently connected to mains power.
Two chassis earth points are built into the inner sides of the chassis for securing to a
building earth point. Refer to the safety information page near the end of this manual for
further information.
Connect power to each Fairlight module via its standard IEC power input
Arranging Cables and Replacing the Leg Side Covers
Your Fairlight console is designed to keep cables tidy. After connecting power cables, you can
bundle them together and guide them through the cable slots on each leg.
Once cables are in place, you can then re-install the leg side covers and tightentheir
4 x M3 Pozidriv screws to a torque of 0.35Nm.
16Unpacking and Assembling
Connecting the Fairlight Modules
After installing the Fairlight modules and plugging in power, connect each module to the other
using an Ethernet daisy chain. It doesn’t matter which particular unit is connected to the other,
as long asthey are all connected via their Ethernet ports.
If you would like to use an Ethernet switch to connect the modules, this is ok and just place
the Ethernet switch inside the console where there is lots of space. Then you can connect each
panel module to the switch directly.
Below is an example of how you could connect the Fairlight modules in a daisy chain.
Ethernet
HDMI
Computer
CONTROL ROOM STUDIO
TIP We recommend using 1.2 meter Cat6 Ethernet cables. These will allow you to
liftthe panel brackets after installation without stretching the cables.
17Unpacking and Assembling
Connecting the Fairlight Console to your Computer
Once all the modules in the console are connected together via ethernet,
connect one of them to the computer that will run DaVinci Resolve.
Connecting the Computer’s HDMI or SDI Output
The LCD monitor above the Fairlight Audio Editor connects to your computer’s HDMI monitor
output. This lets you monitor DaVinci Resolve’s Fairlight page.
This LCD monitor can also be connected to the SDI output from video playback equipment,
for example a Videohub router or Decklink video output.
You can also bundle the Ethernet and video cables together with the power cables that are
threaded through your console’s legs and feet. This keeps all cables neatly together to and
from your Fairlight console.
Reattaching the Chassis Back Panel
Now that all your Fairlight modules are installed, powered and connected, the final step to
complete the assembly of your console is to reattach the chassis’ back panel.
Secure in place using the M3 Pozidriv screws and tighten to a torque of 0.45 Nm.
This completes the assembly and connection setup for your Fairlight console. You are now
ready to confirm your console is working with DaVinci Resolve.
Configuring the Fairlight Modules
The next step is to configure your Fairlight console for your studio.
There are two Fairlight utilities that are included in the DaVinci Resolve installer. The utilities
arecalled Fairlight Panel Setup and Fairlight Studio Utility.
18Configuring the Fairlight Modules
The full studio version of DaVinci Resolve can be installed from the SD card included
withyourFairlight Console, but we recommend downloading the latest version from the
Blackmagic Design Support Center at www.blackmagicdesign.com/support.
To install DaVinci Resolve, launch the DaVinci Resolve installer and follow the onscreen
prompts. Be sure to select the 'Fairlight Studio Utility' when installing DaVinci Resolve.
Fairlight Panel Setup
Fairlight Panel Setup can be connected to the Fairlight module via USB or Ethernet using DHCP.
If you are not using a DHCP server, you can set the network settings to a fixed IP address via
USB. More information for changing network settings is provided later in this manual.
When configuring the Fairlight console for your studio, the first step is to name each module
using the Fairlight Panel Setup utility. This lets you easily identify each panel module by clicking
on the 'identify this panel' checkbox.
To name each module:
1 Launch the Fairlight Panel Setup utility.
The currently selected module will be visible on the setup
utility home screen. Navigate to each installed unit by
clicking on the arrows on each side of the home screen
2 Select a module on the home screen and click on the settings icon. You can also click
on the module's image to open the settings window.
3 Click on the 'configure' tab. Under 'panel name' you will see a 'set label to' text box.
Changethe name in the text box and click 'save'. You can visually identify each module
installed in your console by clicking on the 'identify this panel' checkbox. This will
illuminate features on the module.
19Configuring the Fairlight Modules
Assign a custom name for each Fairlight module using the
'configure' settings in the Fairlight Panel Setup utility
Studio Name
Name the studio this Fairlight module will be assigned to.
Network Settings
Refer to the ‘Changing Network Settings’ section for information on manually changing
these settings.
Brightness
Changes the brightness of the Fairlight modules LCDs, or the brightness of the Fairlight
Console LCD Monitor. Drag the slider left or right to decrease or increase the brightness.
Display Source
Each Fairlight Console LCD Monitor can be set as a data display or video monitor. This means
the monitor can be set to display the Fairlight page connected via Ethernet, or a video image if
there is a signal connected to the monitor's HDMI or SDI video input.
Data display – Displays the Fairlight page.
Video monitor – Displays the SDI or HDMI video input.
If a video signal is connected to either the HDMI or SDI input, the monitor will automatically
detect which input is being used. However, if both inputs have a video signal connected, you
can manually set the desired input.
