INTRODUCTION
To create a four-screen 2x2 video wall with four HD video inputs, the 4K-Wall video wall controller
provides a truly simple plug-and-play hardware soluon. With four inputs and four outputs, users can
arrange their content in numerous ways, providing unique funconality by combining the abilies of a
video wall hardware controller and a 4x4 HDMI port Matrix. The 4K-Wall is HDCP compliant.
Users can stretch one large image over four screens, send an input to each screen, send four images
to each screen or create a customizable Picture-in-Picture display. Beer sll, there’s no soware re-
quired, as all content management opons are eortlessly controlled via the 4K-Wall video wall con-
troller unit itself. There’s no need for addional drivers. Just connect the HD inputs and HD screens
to the controller and it’s ready to go.

Application diagram
installation
1. Make sure the 4k-WALL is turned o.
2. Connect up to 4 HDMI Inputs (i.e PC, Blu-Ray Player, Digital Signage, etc.) to the HDMI INPUT
ports of the 4k-WALL using HDMI cables.
3. Connect up to 4 HDTVs to the HDMI OUTPUT ports of the 4K-WALL using HDMI cables or
HDMI-to-DVI adapters for DVI displays.
4. Connect the IR receiver to the IR input jack at the back of the 4K-WALL.
5. Connect a cat5/cat6 cable to the RJ45 connector.
6. Oponally connect an RS-232 cable from PC to the RS232 port of the unit for addional
control.
7. Turn on the 4K-WALL.
8. Wait for the unit to inialize. This should take less than 1 minute.
LEARN EDID
Once 4K-WALL 2x2 boots up, it will automacally default to HDMI + Audio for the EDID. Depending on the monitors
used, using either the built in custom EDID may work beer than the local EDID or vice versa.
To learn the Local EDID, press and hold buon 2 + 3 simultaneously on the front panel.
Please note that Local EDID will only take the EDID from OUTPUT 1.
To learn HDMI + Audio EDID, press and hold buon 1 + 4 simultaneously on the front panel.
To learn HDMI EDID, press and hold buon 1 + 3 simultaneously on the front panel
To learn DVI EDID, press and hold buon 1 + 2 simultaneously on the front panel.
