Screen Configuration 

If the LED screen, cabinets, data flow and cabinets loaded by Ethernet ports can meet the following requirements, 
you can configure the screen via the device front panel menu; otherwise, screen configuration in VMP will be your 
ideal choice. 

 

Screen: The LED screen must be a regular screen. 

 

Cabinet: The cabinets must be regular ones of the same size, and function well. 

 

Data flow: The data must run in the same way for all Ethernet ports and the data flow must be one of the 
followings. The starting position of the data flow is the first cabinet of Ethernet port 1, and the connections are 
made in sequence according to the serial number of the Ethernet port. 

 

 

Cabinets loaded by Ethernet port: If 

n

 ports are used to load the cabinets, the number of cabinets loaded by 

each of the first (

n

–1

) ports must be the same and the integral multiple of the number of cabinet rows or 

columns, and it must be greater than or equal to the number of cabinets loaded by the last port.

Set Input Source 

Select the desired input source and complete the related settings, such as resolution and frame rate. If the 
resolutions of the input source and screen are the same, the image can be displayed pixel to pixel. A lower frame rate 
may result in image flickering, while a higher frame rate helps stabilize the display image.
