Operation Tips: The functions of 3D HD are powerful with very simple operation, and multiple operations can be completed with a knob and a return key. The design of more than one shortcut keys makes operations more efficient. Generally, the LED display can be used normally, and the brightness is moderate after conducting the following three steps: EDID Settings → Screen setting → Brightness. Other menus such as screen control and senior setting can help users better control LED display. See the following section for details of operations. 8.1 Step 1: EDID Setting The function can be used to set the output resolution of video card. In general, the image shown in screen cannot exceed the output resolution of video card. Enter the menu Advanced Setting to set the EDID resolution of video source. It can be achieved in two ways: Preset and Custom. Method 1: Preset Selection is made in preset resolution of the controller. If there is no preset resolution, you can select the second method and customize resolution. www.novastar-led.cn 11 User Manual of 3D Video Controller Method 2: Custom Set Horizontal Res, Vertical Res and Custom refresh rate and then select "apply" and press the knob for application. If the application is not confirmed, custom resolution is invalid. 8.2 Step 2: Screen setting The precondition of Screen setting in shortcut is that the screen must be regular rectangle (not special-shaped), cabinet must be regular rectangle and the size of each cabinet are identical. Step 1 The screen being power-on, if the cabinet is in normal display, enter into step 2); if the cabinet is in abnormal display, first load the cabinet file, and save it to the receiving card; see detailed operation in 8.4 Advanced Setting . Step 2 Return to the “Screen Setting” submenu. Rotate the button to switch to submenus of other options respectively to perform configurations, as shown in the following figures: Step 3 Set Cabinet Row QTY and Cabinet Col QTY according to the actual situation of the screen. www.novastar-led.cn 12 User Manual of 3D Video Controller Step 4 Set Cabinet Out1 QTY. The device has some limitations on the cabinet quantity of ports. For details, see precautions for screen setting a). Step 5 Set the Data Flow(Front View). Pay attention to precautions for screen setting c), d) and e) below. Precautions for screen setting: a) If the number of network interfaces with loads Example: is n (n≤8), the first n-1 network interfaces must For example, if network interface 1~7 have loads, have the same number of cabinets, which network interface 1~7 must have the same number of must also be an integral multiple of the number cabinets, which must also be an integral multiple of the of cabinet rows or columns and be greater than number of cabinet rows or columns. Therefore, you need or equal to the number of cabinets for the nth only to set cabinet out1 num according to the actual network interface. situation when setting the screen. The number of receiving cards for network interface 8 must be smaller than or equal to cabinet out1 num b) In the case of special-shaped cabinets, different cabinet sizes and special-shaped screen, the NovaLCT-Mars software is required to be connected to configure the screen. c) During connection setting, you can rotate the button to see the effects of different connections on the screen in real time. If you are satisfied with the connection, you must press the button to save the setting. You can press the return key to exit from the current operation. d) During connection setting, you must ensure that the connection of each network interface is downward in the same direction. e) During connection setting, you must ensure that network interface 1 is the start position of the whole connection. f) 3D HD can load 5.2 million (60Hz) pixels in maximum. The width of lateral load can reach to 3840 pixels in maximum; the longitudinal load can reach to 3840 pixels in maximum. www.novastar-led.cn 13 User Manual of 3D Video Controller 8.3 Step 3: Brightness Return to the main menu interface. Press the Knob to select the corresponding value of Brightness. You can rotate the Knob to adjust the value at this time. 8.4 Advanced setting Several setting options of main functions are included in advanced setting, as shown in the figure below, Operation of each function will be detailed for users in the following text. 8.4.1 Offset Position Adjust the starting point coordinate. Here the upper limit of offset is regulated, that is, the total of offset and screen size cannot exceed the output resolution of video card. 8.4.2 Image Quality Set Gamma, color temperature, red brightness, green brightness, blue brightness value of image as required. Save these parameters to receiving card by applying Save RV Card Parameters after proper adjustment. www.novastar-led.cn 14 User Manual of 3D Video Controller 8.4.3 Master/Redundancy Set the controller as master control mode or backup mode when there are multiple controllers in the system. 8.4.4 Loading the configuration file of cabinet 3D HD is connected with PC, NovaLCT-Mars runs on PC and cabinet setting file saved previously is imported into controller. 1) Save cabinet configuration file After receiving card is configured, click and save cabinet configuration file (.rcfg) to local file on PC. www.novastar-led.cn 15 User Manual of 3D Video Controller 2) Import the configuration file of cabinet into 3D HD. The operation steps are as follows: www.novastar-led.cn 16 User Manual of 3D Video Controller Tips: NovaLCT-Mars automatically reads the existing configuration files in the controller. The NovaLCT-Mars can perform operations such as modification of file name, adjustment order of file and delete these files. 3) Load the configuration file of cabinet 4) Save the configuration file of cabinet into receiving card. See detailed operation in 8.4.9 Save RV Card Parameters. 8.4.5 3D Setting The menu includes 3D mode on/off and 3D left/right eye setting. 3D video source is disabled when the mode is switched to 2D video source. The setting status will be displayed in the home screen of LCD. 8.4.6 Fn Setting The functions of custom button include Black Out, Freeze and Test Pattren. Press Fn key to directly conduct function switch. www.novastar-led.cn 17 User Manual of 3D Video Controller 8.4.7 Return to home screen The time period during which the system stops at current interface and then automatically returns to home screen when there is no operation. The system default value is 60s. 8.4.8 Hardware version View the hardware version of 3D HD. If new version has been published, LCT-Mars can be connected via PC and the hardware program of 3D HD can be upgraded. View 9 Firmware Update for detailed operations. 8.4.9 Save RV Card Parameters All current configurations of 3D HD are saved into receiving card and will not be lost after power fault. 8.4.10 Factory default 3D HD is reset to factory default setting. www.novastar-led.cn 18 User Manual of 3D Video Controller 8.5 Display Control Normal : Normally display. Blank Out: The display is blank Freeze: The current play lists are frozen. The blank screen occurs when the current source signal is lost. Testing Pattern: There are eight kinds of testing screens in total, including pure color and lines. 8.6 Communication setting Set the communication mode and network parameter of 3D HD. The communication modes include USB priority and interconnected LAN (local area network) priority. When 3D HD is connected to USB control and LAN control simultaneously, USB takes priority in the setting, that is, the system adopts USB control; otherwise, LAN takes priority in the setting, that is, t he system adopts LAN control; as the priority of serial interface is fixed as minimum, it can only be normally used when USB and LAN are not connected at the same time. The network parameter can be set both manually and automatically. Ensure that IP address not conflict with other equipment when setting parameter manually. www.novastar-led.cn 19 User Manual of 3D Video Controller 8.7 Language setting 9.
