The grid display represents the 
panels in the video curtain and is 
used to select panels. 

Panels are shown in grey. A single 
grey cell represents an LC 1140 
panel. A double grey cell 
represents an LC 2140 panel. 

The selected panel is shown in 
green. Empty cells are shown in 
black.

The Wall Size fields determine 
the number of cells in the grid 
display. The Origin fields determine the XY coordinates of the top-left cell, which are 0,0 by default. Change 
the values as described on page 8, under “How to change numeric values”.

To adjust the wall size and origin for optimal display:

1. Click Connect

2. Increase the top Origin field (X) to eliminate empty rows above the panels.

3. Increase the bottom Origin field (Y) to eliminate empty columns to the left of the panels.

4. Adjust the X and Y Wall Size fields as required to display all panels.
