3.1 Set up a complete MiPIX display system
How to set up a complete MiPIX display system ?
1. The first thing that has to be done is to design and install the support grid for the MiPIX blocks. See chapter MiPIX-20 support
grid, page 13 for design guidelines. Important to know is that the pixel blocks have to be connected with each other according
to the supported configuration schemes. These configuration schemes represent the basic compositions of MiPIX blocks, see
"Configuration schemes of MiPIX blocks", page 15. For more information or help about MiPIX support grids, contact Barco NV.
2. The second step is to attach the MiPIX blocks to the support grid. The inter-block cabling can be done simultaneous or after
the pixel blocks are snapped into the support grid, depending on the accessibility behind the support grid, see chapter Attach
MiPIX-20 blocks to the support grid, page 17.
3. The next step is to install the MiPIX control units, see page 19. This step contains several actions, which are the physical instal-
lation of the MiPIX control unit, the data cabling and the power cabling.
4. Installation of the power box. See manual of the used power box for installation guidelines or other info.
5. Installation of the digitizer. See manual of the used digitizer for installation guidelines or other info. Ensure a proper video signal
is applied to the digitizer inputs.
6. Installation of the control software. The control software (e.g. XLite Toolset) has to be installed on a local PC, see manual of the
control software for more information.
7. Initialize and start up the MiPIX display. Energize the power box(es) and the digitizer(s), then start up the control software.
3.2 Configuration schemes of MiPIX blocks
Introduction
MiPIX blocks have to be connected with each other according to the supported configuration schemes. These configuration schemes
represent the basic compositions of MiPIX blocks. With those basic forms you can create a MiPIX display of any shape and any size.
A basic composition consist of four chains of pixel blocks connected to the same MiPIX controller unit. Depending on how those
chains are configured in relation to each other we can create some different configuration schemes. Not all configurations are
allowed. There exist two categories of supported configuration schemes, namely the “linear chain configuration” and the “tile con-
figuration”.
The connection order of the chains to the MiPIX control unit is not the same. Therefore the output port numbers of the MiPIX control
unit is mentioned in the schemes below. Furthermore each output port is represented by a color which can be displayed on the
connected pixel blocks. This to verify if the correct port numbers are used. Only one side of the pixel block will lights up, indicating
the input side of the pixel block.
• Output port 1 : Red
• Output port 2 : Green
• Output port 3 : Blue
• Output port 4 : Yellow
Linear chain configuration schemes
The supported linear chain configuration schemes are:
• 1 column of 4 horizontal chains (1 x 4 H).
• 4 columns of 1 vertical chain (4 x 1 V).
• 2 columns of 2 horizontal chains (2 x 2 H).
• 2 columns of 2 vertical chains (2 x 2 V).
• 1 column of 4 vertical chains (1 x 4 V).
