F2 User Manual Rev. 1

Introduction

Pixels per Panel

Each pixel is 1 tri-color LED. The following table provides the pixels per panel in each F2. For detailed 

specifications, refer to the 

Technical Specifications

 table at the end of this User Manual.

Scrambled Pulse-Width Modulation

This product features Scrambled-PWM (S-PWM) technology, which de-synchronizes the pulse widths of 

each color of the multi-color LEDs. This ensures that there is always some LED output, reducing flicker, 

and maintaining the same grayscale performance.

To calculate the number of panels, horizontally and vertically, supported by a single 

VIP Drive 43Nova 2 or VIP Drive 83R Nova, you will use:

The number of pixels per panel.

The screen resolution you would like to use for your video wall display.

The VIP Drive 43Nova 2 or VIP Drive 83R Nova is required to operate an F2 video wall 

system. Diagrams of how the F2 panels and the VIP Drive connect follow later in this 

manual. For detailed information about the VIP Drive and panel calculation examples, refer 

to the User Manual for the VIP Drive 43Nova 2 or VIP Drive 83R Nova.
