NovaStar VX400s-N All-in-One LED Display Controller

The NovaStar VX400S-N is an all-in-one controller designed to simplify digital signage deployments with an ultra-large loading capacity. It integrates video processing and video control into a single unit. This combination allows it to handle both data management and video optimization, making it a versatile device for LED display setups. 

As a respected brand that focuses on LED display control systems, providing solutions with high stability, NovaStar's controllers are well-known for their durability and outstanding performance, making them a formidable, high-performing, and dependable digital signage player for continuous 24/7 use, particularly when consistent functioning and reliability are essential. 

Performance 

The NovaStar VX400S-N LED Display Controller is capable of receiving a variety of video signals and processing high-resolution images. It can drive up to 2.3 million pixels with custom resolutions up to 3840 pixels in width or height and enhances image quality by optimizing each pixel ensuring that visuals are crisp and detailed. 

Features 

The VX400S-N uses modern methods to produce extremely consistent, detailed, and colorful images. The significant features are as follows: 

Multiple kinds of hot backup: The VX400S-N offers various layers of redundancy, such as device-level and Ethernet ports backup, guaranteeing continuous operation and minimizing failures for maximum reliability. 

Pixel Level Brightness and Chroma Calibration: This works by calibrating the brightness and color of each individual pixel using the NovaLCT and NovaStar calibration software, which removes inconsistencies and produces an image that is better looking. 

Layers Management: The adjustable layer capability allows the customization of the size and position of two different layers and their priority on the LED display. 

Preset Saving and Loading: It allows the saving and recall of up to 10 user-defined different preset configurations for display setups, which is useful for events, stage performances, and other applications where display settings must change frequently. 

Powerful video scaling processing: The output image can be scaled smoothly and continuously with the stepless output scaling capability, which is based on SuperView III image quality processing technology. This results in a smooth and efficient display experience since the output image's size can be changed without any obvious steps or jumps. 

Cascading: Not only a single VX400S-N is a powerful device, but one can connect up to 4 units (for image mosaic) to expand this processor's capabilities which will be essential to control large, complex and extensive LED display setups such as stadium panels and indoor/outdoor concerts displays. 

Output 

The VX400S-N is the ideal solution for largescale LED displays that require outstanding clarity and continuous operation. Four Gigabit Ethernet ports with maximum loading capacity of 2,300,000 pixels ensure clear, detailed and continuous imagery. 

Input 

This controller supports a maximum input resolution of 2K×1K@60Hz via HDMI 1.3 ports (compliant with HDCP 1.4), and up to 1920x1080@60Hz via 3G-SDI. It also can handle a maximum supported width or height of 3840 pixels (3840×600@60Hz) or (800×3840@60Hz). 

Control 

Using a USB Type-B port to connect to the control PC, the VX400S-N makes it easier to operate intricate LED displays and guarantees that every device is in sync with a single reference. Furthermore, four VX400S-N units can cascade thanks to USB ports, ensuring that every device is accurately synchronized to a single reference. 

Software Configuration and Tools 

The pixel level brightness and chroma calibration is supported for each single LED through NovaLCT and NovaStar calibration software. 

Operation 

The VX400S-N performs perfectly in extreme ambient temperatures among -20°C and +60°C whenever powered via a 100-240VAC input voltage consuming maximum power of 28W. 

Applications 

Thanks to its powerful video processing and sending capabilities and other outstanding features, the VX400s-N can be widely used applications such as rental, stage control systems and fin-pitch LED screens.
