This setting is required for VideoWall operation to map the monitors to the
positions.
X Max: Number of columns into which the image is divided. (up to 11 columns)
Y Max: Number of lines in which the image is divided. (up to 11 lines)
X position: Column position of the monitor in the wall.
Y position: Row position of the monitor in the wall.
X Gap: Proportional value of the X-axis panel edge with the unit per thousand
Y GAP: Proportional value of the Y-axis panel edge with the unit per thousand
Set ID: Assigned ID of the monitor (identication for IR Remote or RS232)
1.3.1 Adjust Set ID
After activating Set ID, the following window appears:
• Here, the ID of each monitor is set to identify it in the wall conguration.
• The ID is important to be able to address the monitor individually via the IR Remote or the RS232.
• The ID denes the total active monitors (in example 15) and the ID of the currently selected one (in example 11)
1.Press the BLUE button and then use 0 ~ 9 button to select the Active SET ID.

1.3.3 Calculate and set the X Gap and Y Gap
In order to achieve the perfect visual impression of an image across several screens, the pixels must be calculated or adjusted at the
respective edge of the picture. This adjustment can be set via the X / Y-GAP value in the OSD menu.
The procedure is shown in the following picture.
For a classic video wall setup, the following values must be set in the OSD menu.
X Gap = 6 Y Gap = 10
If the display still looks distorted or you have realized your own layout with larger distances between the monitors, you can calculate
the gap with the following formula.
