7. Create Pre-set layout for G4K Pro
There are two ways to create and save pre-set layouts for future recall.
•One way is to save up to 4 layouts onto the device so that the layouts can be loaded by G4KPro
management software, iGPro from Apple App Store or 3rd party controller via telnet (Figure 4-A).
•Another method is to use Save & Load buttons on toolbar to save unlimited layouts onto
control PC and load them using G4KPro management software. There are a few sample layouts already
in the folder for users to use.
This quick start guide provides basic instructions for setting up SEADA G4K Pro video wall controllers. For
