33 VSM Pro User Guide
Test patterns enable you to quickly check your installation for configuration issues. For example,
you can display a fixed test pattern to identify any fixtures or nodes that are not functioning.
Similarly, you can display a moving image test pattern to identify any network bandwidth issues
with your installation.
Note:
When displaying static test patterns, VSM Pro uses a video refresh rate. This
enables you to power down and power up fixtures without having to manually refresh the
test patterns.
How an Input is Displayed, Based on Resolution
By default, VSM Pro displays 1024 x 768 resolution video. If the input resolution is smaller than
1024 x 768, it is automatically centered on the LED display, with unused pixels appearing as a
black frame around the video content. If the input resolution is greater than 1024 x 768, it is
automatically centered and cropped on the LED display:
For the best pixel reproduction, format the source video resolution to 1024 x 768.
