In Quick Configuration, the number of panels connected to ports 2 through 10 may only be
equal to or less than the number set to port 1.
For example: If there are 10 rows and 20 columns (200 total panels), port 1 can be set from
20–40. If port 1 is set to 40, ports 2 through 5 will output to 40 panels, and ports 6 through
10 will output to no panels (40+40+40+40+40 = 200). If port 1 is set to 20, all ports will output
to 20 panels (20+20+20+20+20+20+20+20+20+20 = 200).
Port 1 will not be able to be set to any number lower than 20 because that is the lowest
number that will allow port 10 to be equal to or less than port 1.
These numbers assume the default settings are available, and not overridden by the
firmware of connected panels.
