NovaStar - VX400

Novastar VX-400 is an all-in-one controller integrating a video processor, suitable for small to medium sized LED screen installations. It can handle up to 2.6 Mpixels in total, up to 10,240 pixels wide or up to 8192 pixels high, ideal for applications with even very wide and tall LED screens. 
The VX-400 offers a variety of video inputs (1 x 3G-SDI, 2 x HDMI 1.3, 1 x DVI, 1 x OPT1) and allows you to switch seamlessly between different input sources. In addition, it supports up to 2 x 2K x 1K layers and scaling function. Ultra-low latency is 1 frame. 
In addition to the integrated sending card with 4 Ethernet ports, it also offers the possibility of installing two SFP modules; these modules allow you to cover greater distances than the 100 m limit of Ethernet cables. OPT 1 copies output to 4 Ethernet ports, OPT 2 copies or backups output to 4 Ethernet ports. To control even larger LED screen installations, the Image Mosaic function is available which allows you to combine up to four VX-400 units.
 
Screen configuration can be done via USB and Ethernet connection. The 1U format fits perfectly in 19" racks, making the VX-400 even more suitable for rental companies and fixed installations.

Input connectors

• HDMI 1.3 (IN & LOOP)
• HDMI 1.3
• DVI (IN & LOOP)
• 3G-SDI (IN & LOOP)
• Optical fiber port (OPT1)

Output connectors

• 4 x Gigabit Ethernet ports. A single device unit drives up to 2.6 million pixels, with a maximum width of 10,240 pixels and a maximum height of 8192 pixels
• 2 x fiber outputs
  • OPT 1 copies the output on 4 Ethernet ports
  • OPT 2 copies or backs up the output on 4 Ethernet ports 
• HDMI 1.3 for monitoring or video output
• Self-adaptive OPT 1 for either video input or sending card output. Thanks to the self-adaptive design, OPT 1 can be used as either an input or output connector, depending on its connected device

Audio input and output

• Audio input accompanied with HDMI input source
• Audio output via a multifunction card
• Output volume adjustment supported

Low latency

• Reduce the delay from the input to receiving card to 20 lines when the low latency function and bypass mode are both enabled.

2 x layers

• Adjustable layer size and position
• Adjustable layer priority

Output synchronization

• An internal input source can be used as the sync source to ensure the output images of all cascaded units in sync  

Powerful video processing

• Based on SuperView III image quality processing technologies to provide stepless output scaling
• One-click full screen display
• Free input cropping

Automatic screen brightness adjustment

• Adjust the screen brightness automatically based on the ambient brightness collected by the external light sensor 

Easy preset saving and loading

• Up to 10 user-defined presets supported 

Multiple kinds of hot backup

• Backup between devices
• Backup between Ethernet ports

Mosaic input source supported

• The mosaic source is composed of two sources (2K × 1K @ 60) accessed to the OPT 1

Up to 4 units cascaded for image mosaic

Three working modes

• Video controller
• Fiber converter
• Bypass

All-round color adjustment

• Input source and LED screen color adjustment supported, including brightness, contrast, saturation, hue and gamma

Pixel level brightness and chroma calibration

• Work with NovaLCT and NovaStar calibration software to support brightness and chroma calibration on each LED, effectively removing color discrepancies and greatly improving LED display brightness and chroma consistency, allowing for better image quality

Multiple operation modes

• Control the device as you wish via V-Can, NovaLCT or device front panel knob and buttons.
