3. Features
The PRO-VideoWall 4K 1x4 Video Wall Processor is a powerful, cost eective,
and fully real time data/video processor for multiple at panel displays or pro-
jectors. Virtually any setups for the display layout can be possible by the control
software. The PRO-VideoWall allows the user to input HDMI/ DisplayPort up to
4K2K@60Hz 4:4:4. The embedded scaler converts signals from HDMI/ Display-
Port source to match the native resolution of monitors, at panel displays, pro-
jectors as well as user-selectable output settings up to WUXGA (1920x1200). The
PRO-VideoWall sends the resulting processed video through HDMI interface to
the connected monitors/projectors based on the setup display layout. The layout
can be readily modied to t your applications in digital signage, broadcasting,
education and surveillance systems and optimize visual eects.

Show the connect information and status. If you use USB control Mode to con-
nect device, the graph is . For IP control, the graph of Ethernet is .
2. Quick Selection: *Quick Selection function is not available when the input re-
solution is 4K2K@60Hz
Use the software for independent rotation
for each input. You can select clockwise or
counterclockwise to rotate the screen.
