EDGE-BLENDING TOOL
A powerful utility is available to allow simple setup of the unit; the application is
designed to run on Windows XP and Vista.
The following guide is designed for a 2x1 configuration, in practice if the scaler is
dividing the image as well as providing a blend then up to an 8 x 8 configuration
may be possible depending on the input and output resolutions. For a configuration
where the source is already segmented with a overlap area then there is no
specified limit to the number outputs possible.
You should read the previous section on Edge-blending before using this tool.
If at any stage further input or configuration is required the application will mark the
item using an
icon.
13.1 Configuration
The application can be used to either create an Edge blend or a Video Wall and is a
step by step process. The initial screen provides the display configuration and the
number of scalers to be used for the system. You must have one scaler for each
display in the configuration.
Figure 2 Configuration Screen
Once the display configuration and the number of scalers is set the ‘Next’ button
moves the application on to the unit Communications screen.
13.2 Communications
Each unit can be connected wither by Ethernet or Serial communications. You
should select each scaler in from the left of the screen and then set its
communications parameters. The Baud rate for the serial communications is fixed
at 57600Baud. Each unit should then be tested before proceeding to the next
screen.
