Planning a video installation
It's really helpful to write a plan before you start installing. A plan saves you time and effort later, and helps you
make sure you have all the equipment you need.
There's a printable plan at the back of this guide.
If you can't print and fill out the plan, think about the following questions:
Overall effect
n
What do you want your video wall to look like?
n
How large is your video wall?

the same frame rate.

How many displays do you need?
