Control layer
NovaStar control systems
The panels are half the system. What drives them decides latency, colour, redundancy and whether the wall can be re-calibrated in five years. We specify, supply and commission the whole signal chain.
Selection turns on the application first — rental staging, permanent install, broadcast, or unattended signage — then on pixel count. A controller that is right for a touring rig is usually wrong for a command-centre wall.
It is not an accessory
The controller decides refresh behaviour, colour processing, redundancy and how the wall recovers from a fault. A good panel on a poor controller performs like a poor panel.
Capacity is the sizing number
Controllers are specified on pixel load, not screen size. Work out total resolution first, then pick the box — sizing by area is how walls end up short of ports.
Redundancy is configured, not bought
N+1 only protects you if the backup path is set up at commissioning. Hardware that supports it and hardware that is running it are different things.
VX all-in-one
Scaler, switcher and sender in one box. The default for rental and small-to-mid fixed walls.
COEX series
Calibration and configuration held in the controller. The default for permanent installs and broadcast.
H series
Card-based chassis for very large systems or unusual input requirements.
Taurus players
Standalone playback for signage that runs without an operator.
