The DX-700 is a multi-window video processor designed as a versatile front-end to all

Barco LED products.

•Current LED products such as MiPIX, MiTRIX, MiSTRIP, DLite, OLite, SLite and

ILite are supported via the DVI LED interface on the DVI output module.

•Next generation LED products such as NX-4 are supported via the NNI LED

interface on the DX-700’s NNI output module.

Image processing and LED wall configuration and control functions are adjusted from the

DX-700 front panel, or from Barco’s Director Toolset. Refer to the “Basic Features”

section on page 17 for additional details.

Please note:

•To ensure trouble-free installation and operation of your DX-700, please follow all

procedures in the following two sections:

~Chapter 3, “Installation” on page61.

~Chapter 4, “Operation” on page 69.

•Should you have any questions regarding the installation or operation of the

DX-700, please consult with the factory. Refer to AppendixC, “Contact

Information” on page203 for contact details.

Important Director Toolset version 2.0 or later is required.
