3. Device Debugging

3.1 Device Connection

Device connection could be divided into three parts: power connection, signal

connection and control connection (used for software debugging).

Power connection: device power supply. Connection method: connect power

cord to power plug.

Signal connection: the method transferring signal from signal source to LED

large screen. Connection method: signal source (e.g.: computer)→Splicing Processor

→ Sending cards → Large screen.

Control connection: connect computer with device control port and debug device

connection method. There are three connection methods

(1) Connect 100MB network control port with splicer LAN1 port, which can set

device software.

(2) Connect computer gigabit network port with splicer LAN2 port, which can

not only set device but also echo signal source image.

(3) Connect one crystal head of serial port line which is randomly donated by

device with splicer COM port, and plug DB9 into computer serial port. Any kind of

method among the three can realize device software control.

3.2 Debugging Steps

Step 1: Click “MENU” to enter into main menu interface and click “Device Mode” to select

splicing mode: copy mode, horizontal mosaic, vertical mosaic and cross mosaic.

Note: Copy mode: all output contents are consistent; horizontal mosaic: content

of all output are arranged horizontally; vertical mosaics: contend of all output are

arranged vertically; cross mosaics: contend of all output are arranged in two rows and

two columns.

Step 2: select suitable splicing mode and click “OK”; get back to main menu

interface to select “Screen parameter” and enter into its setting interface. Set loaded

screen point of each output interface and click “Confirm” after inputting, and then

screen splice is finished.

Note: there are two ways for number input:

(1) Adjust by rotate knob. Step length can be adjusted by “×1”“×10”“×100”, for

instance, “×100”means that number of rotate knob increases by 100 each time.

(2) Input by number of the front panel. For example, of the key

refers to figure 1.

Step 3: get back to main menu interface to select “Image layout” and enter into

image number selecting interface to select image number required to be set.

Note: This step can be skipped for signal image. For multi-image, it’s OK if

image number and item requirement are in consistent. Following operations can be

taken to set when layout are not in consistent.

Step 4: Click “OK” and return to main menu interface; select “Image parameter”

and enter into its setting interface to set size and position of each image.

Step 5: Click “OK” and return to main menu interface; select “Clipped view” to enter into

its setting interface to set size and position of each image.

Note: This step should be skipped if full display of signal source is required on

large screen; while if certain signal source of multi-image is needed to be extracted,

only setting of signal source image is required; if horizontal size or vertical size is 0, it

means no local extraction is required in this direction.

Step 6: Click “OK” and return to main menu interface; select “Save setting” to

enter into Data storage interface; select any mode and click “OK” to save data.

Note: Mode 1 is default startup data of device boot; it’s suggested that the most

common mode or that required by device boot should be saved to Mode 1.

At this point, basic device debugging is completed. If there is other requirement,

repeat the operation and save it as other mode.

After device debugging, just call saved data according to different condition

requirements in later stage.

Data call is divided into forms:

(1) For Shortcut key call, only click of “M1-M6” in front panel is required,

which is convenient when mode scenario is few.

(2) For User mode call of Main Menu, click “MENU” and select “User Mode”

to enter into its extraction interface. Then select needed mode and click “OK”.

3.3 Case Study

Device debugging steps are explained by following cases.

Case 1: screen size is 2688×1664 and loading transmitting card is shown as

picture below:

Requirement: whole computer desktop should be displayed completely.

Debugging Steps:

Step 1: click “MENU” and enter into main menu interface to select “Cross

Mosaic” of the first item “Device mode”.

Note: since four transmitting cards are in a 2×2 layout, cross mosaic is needed

then.

Step 2: Click “OK” to return to main menu interface; select “Large screen

parameters” to set size of each output interface.

Note: Input according to corresponding transmitting card size of each output

interface. For OUT1, its horizontal size is 1440 and vertical size 896; for OUT2, they

are 1248 and 896 respectively; for OUT3, they are 1440 and 768; for OUT4, 1248 and

768.

Step 3: After inputting, click “Confirm” and return to main menu interface. The

large screen splicing is finished, select signal source needed to display on screen and

click corresponding key. For instance, for display of computer signal on large screen

and connection of computer DVI interface with “S1-DVI” port of the back device,

just click “S1” in the front which means choosing the signal to display on the screen.

Step 4: After selecting signal and normal display of large screen, save all setting

data. Click “MENU” to enter into main menu interface, and then get into “Save

setting” interface to select “Mode 1” and click “OK”. Things will be fine when it

suggests saving successfully.
