VP-P37.5 preliminary setup instructions
Mechanical screen assembly
-
Put the screen together using the quick lock adapters
o
Always fix the “VP-P37.5 BRACKET” first: suspended to the ceiling or truss construction.
Make sure that the ceiling/truss construction can support the complete screen!
Each bracket can support a column of up to 10 panels. (screen height = 6m)
o
Fix the panels in rows: first install 2 rows before you start lock the upper row. This makes it
easier to build the screen together.
Electrical screen assembly
Please refer to the drawing:
The drawing shows the screen from the
BACKSIDE!
This means that you should place yourself on
the backside of the screen and follow the instructions below:
-
Data (video signal)
is cabled horizontally: always from left to right, starting from the top row!
o
The VP-SCANBOX has 8 outputs:
Output 1 is connected to the most left panel of the upper row. (panel1 on the drawing)
Output 2 is connected to the most left panel of the 2nd row. (panel8 on the drawing)
o
If the screen is too big for 1 scan box, you can easily connect several scan boxes together,
using the RJ45 in/out connectors and the (blue) CAT6-cable. Configuration of the setup is
done in the setup software.
o
Use the small 30cm data cables to daisy chain panels in a row.
Note:
VP-SCANBOX supports theoretically up to 12panels (192pixels) per output but to have
good performance you should limit this number to max. 8 panels per output. (ideal = 5 to 6
panels)
-
Power (230Vac)
is cabled vertically: always from bottom to top.
o
Use the small 30cm power cables to daisy chain panels in a column.
Note:
a special power cable (VP-POWERLINE 4/30P) is available: it has a length of 4m and
has 4 outputs so you can connect 4 colums and up to 30 panels.
Interface assembly
You need a Windows PC (or laptop) + “VP-PC INTERFACE” + one or more “VP-SCANBOX” to setup
the interface with the screen.
-
PC
VP-PC INTERFACE:
2 lines are needed:
o
USB line:
use the supplied USB-cable.
Important!
Before you connect the VP-PC
INTERFACE to your PC, you should install the USB-drivers! (see attached file with drivers)
