8. 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.

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.
