So is it your goal to record in the cameras or to make ISO recordings at the Atem side with 6 Hyperdecks?
If you want to do it in camera. It is a bit more difficult. There is a command that can trigger the record in the camera but this command is not available in normal BMD hardware.
You need to build a special box based on an SDI Arduino shield and special code to trigger the Record function of the cameras.
If you insert Timecode into the XLR on the back of the Atem Says TC IN. Your Atem will run in Timecode and will distribute this timecode trough it's output SDI's
If you install the latest FW on the Broadcast cameras they are able to receive the Timecode trough the SDI input. This will ensure the Time stamp on every camera is the same. So if you hit record it will embed that time onto the recording. Which will make it easy to sync up all recordings in the edit software.
You can also pre-set the Timecode trough the Atem software and let the Atem be the Timecode master. So you dont need external Timecode hardware.
