Notes on cluster configurations
Every clustering of VMCs must contain one and only one master. This one is
responsible for synchronization of all VMCs. If a VMC does not receive synchronisa-
tion info at its input, it assumes to be master and sends the synchronization to its
output. All following VMCs receive sync info at their input and assume that they are
slaves.
For this reason in the previous system diagram the master is placed directly at the
video source. It now create synchronization signals and all following VMCs act as
slaves.
Due to the reason that there is a maximum of eight VMCs in one chain and the
master is already at the top of the configuration, the maximum number of VMCs in
one configuration is
1 * (n * 7 slaves)
where n is the number of chains.
LED matrix default picture
In case of video loss the VMC can show a default picture on connected fixtures. (i.e.
shows company logo). Once the matrix output exactly matches your needs, please
press VMC button for 2 seconds. All VMC that are connected to same network and
do belong to same VMC group will permanently store content.
Video content and playback
For best LED matrix performance video content should be prepared carefully for
any LED matrix. The video’s refresh rate should match the graphic card adapters
output refresh rate when using e:cue LCE fx or other computers. Actual settings
of your computer can be found in the advanced display properties dialog for your
graphics card adapter. You will also be able to check refresh rate settings in the
VMC configuration dialog while connected to the video source.
The typical refresh rate of a computer‘s DVI/HDMI port would be 60 Hz. A DVD
player typically outputs at 50 Hz. For your video compilation you should use same
or half the refresh rate in order to avoid aliasing effects caused by a mismatch in
video and DMX/epix playback.
