NX module
Introduction
An NX module consist in a milling
fi
nished aluminum base plate with at the front side a matrix of Barco’s black LED’s which are
enclosed by replaceable shaders. The Barco’s black LED’s are full color SMD LED’s which are extremely dark due to diffuser and
the black silicone resin. The use of these black LED’s improves the contrast ratio signi
fi
cantly. The rear of the NX module is equipped
with four high precision positioning pins with neodymium magnets. These magnets ensure that the NX module is automatically
fi
xed
in a right position. Futhermore, these magnets make it possible to replace the NX module via front access using an adapted tool.
All sides of the NX module have a seam hider to ensure a seamless display. Each NX module has its own temperature controlled
fan and four diagnostic LED’s (Link, Power, Fan, Temp). The NX module has two circular connectors, one for power/data input and
one for power/data loop through.
One tile covers 3 x 3 NX modules and one NX-4 module has an LED grid of 32 pixels wide by 36 pixels high. So, an NX-4 display
of 10 tiles high and 20 tiles wide has a native HD resolution of 1920 pixels x 1080 pixels. Note that the NX-6 module has an LED
grid of 24 pixels wide by 27 pixels high.

Cables used with the NX module
The following two cables are used to connect the NX modules, which
