Displays

Displays are the virtual representation of the physical panels on which video wall content appears. Add, view, and manage displays from the Displays page of the Admin interface.

Features of the Displays page appear above and include:

Add Display button: Allows you to add a landscape or portrait-oriented display.

Search bar and Filtered By criteria: Provides ability to search displays by a key word or full display name and reflects the criteria applied to achieve results shown in summary list.

Room label and Display list: Summary of displays available in the corresponding Room, along with associated panels/cabinets arrangement, canvas, and linked device. Click a display name to open the Display Properties panel.

Drag handle: If you have more than one display in a Room, you can use the drag handles to reorder the sequence of displays in the Activity Interface. Click and drag the handle to reorder displays.

Maximum Number of Displays

Up to 8 displays may be created per Alpha processor. The specific number of displays you can create is determined by how the associated canvas was configured. 

Display Orientation

Landscape-oriented displays are the most common and strongly recommended configuration for optimal video wall operation. In rare cases, portrait-oriented visualization is preferred, but note that this is not an easily altered feature. Instructions for configuring both landscape- and portrait-oriented displays are included for general reference, and not intended to be implemented after initial installation.
