Quickstart Guide
CORIOmaster
This Quickstart Guide will show you how to start using the CORIOmaster; a groundbreaking system that allows you to display between 2 and 28*inputs on between 2 and 28* output displays (*depending on
system configuration). The inputs can be resized, rotated and have borders added for a creative look. Outputs can be displayed singly or grouped together for video walls or blended projection. Displays can be of
any size, resolution or rotation.For more advanced features, please refer to the User Manual. Your CORIOmaster must be running firmware version M300 or higher to work with CORIOgrapher; for upgrade
instructions, see the document CORIOmax Firmware Update included on the in-box disc.
•Install the drivers and CORIOgrapher, a Windows (Vista, 7 or 8) based control application onto your PC.
•Unpack the unit and connect your Input sources and Output displays.
•Connect your PC to the CORIOmaster either directly via serial (RS-232) or by Ethernet. Instructions here are for connections using Ethernet. The CORIOmaster is set up to use DHCP by default.
•Connect the power cable and turn on the unit via the power switch on the rear. The unit is ready to use when the LED on the front panel turns green.

physical displays and a number of inputs. Displays can be identical or different sizes and
resolutions. Use the alignment buttons at the top and the text boxes at the bottom to fine-tune
the layout. To preview your video wall, use the Preview button.

or output, you can
access details of
that device and
customize your
video wall further.

Once you have created Canvases in your
Configuration you save them as Presets at the bottom
of the Video Wall which can then be quickly recalled
in the Dashboard window. (If a user is not an admin or
power user, they will not see the Video Wall, only the
Dashboard.)
In the Dashboard, you can cut between canvases (if
available) and presets defined on each canvas.
For a chosen preset, you can change the inputs
associated with it on-the-fly, and choose whether to
make these changes immediate or synchronized
(synchronized changes use the Take button to
implement).

If your saved configuration has
different inputs and outputs from
those on the CORIOmaster, you
will be prompted to fix these
discrepancies the first time the
configuration loads on the
CORIOmaster.
