LED SCREEN BASICS
The LED screen is made up of 28 separate panels (or cabinets), that are locked in place. Each panel is 104x104
pixels and made up of 4 modules (52 x 52p), one receiving card, and one power supply all in one hub. . Each
panel is linked together by a power and a data connection (or jump). For more information on components
and troubleshooting of individual panels see below.
Media is displayed on the screen by sending a data (CAT5) feed from the sending box (VX4S) to the receiving
card in the first panel in a series of connected panels. The data is then sent from one cabinet to the next
through a data connection, or jump, until it has reached each panel. Power is similarly sent by means of a
power jump. However, instead of one main power line jumping through each panel it is split into 3 separate
power lines, each coming from the generator. Please refer to the diagram below to see how both power and
data is jumped throughout the entire screen.
TIP: Please reference user
manuals for above components
for more detailed information and
advanced operating instructions.
