2. Overview

2.1 Introduction

The VideoPlex4 is a standalone display wall controller that accepts a standard single- or dual-link DVI input and can flexibly display this across four output monitors.

Each output can be driven as DVI or analog RGB, and can represent an arbitrary crop region of the original input image. The output resolution and frame rate do not need to be related to that of the input, because the VideoPlex4 will optionally upscale and frame-rate convert each cropped region independently. However, if the VideoPlex4 detects that frame rates identically match, it will automatically frame-lock all outputs and, if possible, frame-lock these to the input signal. Additionally, each output can be independently mirrored or rotated through 90°, 180°, or 270° to support creative mixes of landscape and portrait monitors.

2.2 Configuration Examples

On the next few pages are just a few examples of what can be achieved with the VideoPlex4. The examples are not definitive and users are encouraged to experiment with different display configurations.
