VIDEO WALL CONTROL SOFTWARE
Customized Video Wall Layouts
The position, size and angle of the display connected to each unit is set in the Layout window when in Rotation Mode. If you are currently
in the Setting window, clicking on the
“Layout”
button in the upper- left
“Common”
section of the window will switch back to the Layout
window and activate Rotation mode.
The outline of the layout window represents the source video (1920x1080 pixels) and each display must be placed within this space,
without exceeding the edges (not including bezel size, if active). Each display contains a number which matches the ID number of the
unit that is connected to it and the size/position of each display (listed to the left) is measured in pixels relative to its size/position within
the layout space. When a bezel measurement is used, the display width/ height measurement should be the total measurement of the
screen plus the bezel.
Note:
Video wall configuration and warping is not available in Scaler Mode.
This control software provides a number of common, pre-
defined, video wall configurations, however in most cases
a customized layout will be needed. Custom layouts
are created by selecting a layout to use as a basis, and
then right-clicking on the layout’s selection button and
selecting
“New”
from the dropdown. You then provide a
name for the new layout and click
“OK”
to generate it.
Custom layouts are colored differently to make them easy
to identify.
The Unit information area on the left shows all of the relevant
details of the currently selected display. You may freely reposition
or resize any of the displays by simply clicking on them and
dragging them around the layout space, or by typing numbers
directly into the Unit information area. If bezel measurements
are to be used, the display width/height measurement should
be the total measurement of the screen plus the bezel. After
arranging the layout to approximately match the arrangement of
the real displays, select all of the units involved in the video wall
from the
“Unit”
section at the top of the window and then click
on the
“Set”
button in the Unit information section to upload
the new layout configuration to all selected units. After clicking
“Set”
, the units will take a few seconds to fully update with the
new configuration. In most cases it will take multiple adjustment
and tweaking passes to perfectly match the physical layout.
It is recommended to periodically save the modifications that have been made to the current layout by right clicking on the layout and
selecting
“Update”
. This will save the changes to the layout, so that they are not lost if you close the software, or change to another
layout.
Note:
Making changes to a layout and then switching to a new layout without updating the layout will cause those changes to be lost.
