Please set the output resolution, H Window and V Window based on the physical resolution of LED screen. If
do not have suitable output resolution, please select the options with bigger resolution than the screen’s.
For example, there is a LED screen whose physical resolution is 1152╳960, you cannot find the resolution in
the output resolution lists of LED-500, and larger and nearest resolution is“1280╳1024 60Hz”, in such
circumstances, please set the output resolution to be“1280╳1024 60Hz”. In addition, still need to set the H
Window to be the practical width of the LED screen, 1152. And the V Window should be the practical vertical
height, 960.
Note: please use the bigger than 60Hz refresh rate or greater height and width pixel output resolution
judiciously, it is not sure that the back-end equipment can support this resolution.
