2.1 Signal source

Signal source is the collective name of the signal input device for the display
wall system, such as the video play device (e.g., VCD and DVD players), the
device that can output RGB signal (e.g., computer), camera, etc. VWAS can
conveniently display the signals from these sources to the display wall.

engine, which is the most important optical component in the system. To display actual physical configuration or the actual display needs, as shown in the
the external signal source on the display unit, you need to configure the following figure.
connection relation between the channels and the signal sources as well as the
looping relation between the units in the display wall. In addition, you need to
configure the processor address and the connection information of the channel
and the matrix or signal source. Only when such information is correctly
configured can other relevant operations be conducted, such as opening
windows and moving windows.
2.3.1 Adding display wall

following figure.
Configuring the Ark3300 for several virtual walls
One Ark3300 processor may be configured for several display walls in

actual applications. The relevant operations are described below, taking the
configuration of 4×11 processors for 4×8 and 4×3 virtual walls as an example.
1) First, configure 3 processors for the 4×11 display wall in the Ark cascade
device EP.
2) Create the 4×8 virtual wall in the VWAS, select 2 Ark devices, and
configure the correspondence relationship in the virtual wall, as shown in the
following figure.
Note: Avoid configuring one Ark processor to two virtual walls; otherwise, the
display sharing of the wall will be abnormal.
Configuring multi-functional layout for virtual wall
In actual use, a display wall may be used with N display terminals. For
management convenience of both the wall and terminal, N display terminals will
be simulated as N multi-functional devices. N simulated multi-functional devices
will be arranged on the four sides of the wall. This is shown in the following
figure.
If VWAS has been configured with multi-functional devices
Configuring audio device for virtual wall
In actual use, some signal sources have their own audio channels. In order
to display the audio of the signal source, audio devices should be prepared
onsite. All signal source windows can be opened via VWAS. And in VWAS, all
audio devices will be simulated as multifunctional audio devices. This is shown
in the following figure.
Select on the Display wall property dialog, you will

Wall Sharing
Signal preview refers to previewing the content of a signal source before sending it to the
display wall.. Display wall sharing means the content on the display wall is
captured and sent to a display device for viewing or monitoring. The signal
preview is realized by installing independent signal capture card. For network
signals, the signal image can be obtained through network, and the preview
interface is realized by plug-in. To conduct preview with VWAS, drag the signal
to the preview interface. Display wall Sharing adopts sharing uses a separate
display interface.
