Designed to simplify your display setup, the MX20 integrates video processing and control in a single box. This powerful unit is equipped with multiple inputs and outputs, ensuring seamless connectivity and flexibility for a wide range of display configurations.

Inputs and Outputs

• 2 Video Inputs:
  • 2x HDMI 1.3 (with loop through)
  • 1x 3G-SDI (with loop through)
  • Support for 10-bit and 8-bit video inputs.
• 3 Output Types:
  • 6x Gigabit Ethernet Ports (supporting up to 3.9 million pixels)
  • 2x 10G Optical Ports for reliable, high-speed data transmission
  • 1x SPDIF Digital Audio Port for crisp, clear audio
• 3 Control Options:
  • 1x Genlock Signal Input (with loop through) for frame synchronization
  • 2x Ethernet Control Ports
  • 1x Auxiliary Port for additional functionality

Advanced Features

• Independent Layers: Supports up to 3 independent layers with the ability to adjust layer priority for custom Z-order arrangements.
• Image Scaling: Choose from 4 image scaling modes – custom, pixel-to-pixel, snap to canvas, and fill screen – for a perfect display fit every time.
• 14-Channel Color Correction: Fine-tune your display with precise adjustments to hue, saturation, and brightness across black, white, and 12 standard colors derived from red, green, and blue.
• Full Grayscale Calibration: Paired with NovaStar’s calibration system and the C3200 scientific-grade camera, this feature ensures pixel-perfect calibration across every grayscale level, resulting in stunning image uniformity and clarity.
• Low Latency Performance: Enjoy zero-frame latency (less than 1 ms) in Send-Only Controller mode, and 1-frame latency in All-in-One Controller mode. Additionally, you can add zero to two frames of latency if needed.
• No Rectangle Restriction: Perfect for irregular screens! Blank pixels don’t count toward the total capacity, ensuring efficient use of the Ethernet ports’ load capacity.
• Frame Rate Adaptive: The MX20 adapts to a variety of video input frame rates, including decimal and custom rates, with fine-tuning available in 0.01 Hz steps.
• Two Working Modes:
  • All-In-One Controller Mode: Enables layer and scaling functions.
  • Send-Only Controller Mode: Reduces latency by one frame.

Device Control & Monitoring

• VMP Software Control: Easily connect and manage the MX20 via NovaStar’s Vision Management Platform (VMP) for effortless operations and device management.
• Cascading Control via Ethernet: Cascade multiple devices on the same LAN without the need for switches or routers, thanks to built-in network switching and support for SNMP and Art-Net protocols.
• Display System Monitoring: Monitor the device and screen status in real-time, with automatic reporting of faults or alarms.
