1General
The NovaPro HD is a professional LED display controller. Besides the function of display control,
it also features in powerful front end processing, so an external scalar is no longer needed. With
professional interfaces, excellent image quality and flexible image control, the NovaPro HD meets
the requirements of display industry.
Product features:
1) The inputs of the NovaPro HD include CVBS, VGA, SDI, DVI, HDMI and DP. They support input
resolution up to 1080p@60Hz. Highest pixel clock is 165MHz. Output bandwidth is up to 4GBit.
Advanced de-interlacing motion adaptive processing technology is adopted so that images
are clear and fine. And with HDMI, the gray scale depth can be up to 12bits.
2) Each input can be fully configured with contrast, brightness, hue, saturation, and RGB gain.
Inputs can be scaled up or down to fit the LED display resolution.
3) Computer software for system configuration is not necessary. The system can be configured
using one wheel and one button. All can be done just by fingers. That's what we called Touch
Track! You can also configure the system with browsers. This gives you the option of using a
remote PC (Windows or Mac or Linux), a pad or even a smart phone to do the configuration.
Real-time preview can help you with system set-up and confirm system working status.
4) The NovaPro HD has DMX512 and GenLock interface. Professional control and
synchronization are ready to go. Optical fiber outputs enable reliable long-distance data
transmission.
