System Setup Procedures
1 Step 1 – Connecting The Inputs
Please connect signal source to HDMI input port. User can also apply DVI-D signal but DVI to HDMI adapter
is required.
2 Step 2 – Connecting The Outputs
Actual system connection
3 Step 3 – HDMI Loop Out for Multiple Unit Connection and monitoring
CH-1 / CH-2 HDMI Output
Connectors (Max.
Unprocessed signal looped
out from HDMI input source
HDMI Input source
connector
Raw signal Loop Out
from HDMI input source
6
Loop out port provides the same raw signal from HDMI input. It supports up to 4k/2k @60Hz.
3.1 User can connect any Loop Out signal to any HDMI input port in the next processing module or other
devices.
3.2 User can connect up to10 units of AV-BOX through daisy chain connection. The daisy chain connection
number is related to source resolution and the quality of HDMI connection cables—poor cable will have
less connection number and good cable can connect more units in daisy chain connection.
Daisy chain connection with other AV-BOX models
No specific output connection sequence is required.
Location can be set by Video Wall [PAN] menu.

3.3 If Loop out port has not been used, user can use loop out port to connect with monitoring system in
control room to see the status of the source signal.
4 Step 4 – System Connection and Power On
4.1 Poor quality HDMI cable and signal source will affect the connection distance and may cause signal
noise.
4.2 To ensure all cables are connected correctly, it is recommended to use locking cables.
4.3 Complete video wall system should be connected to one power Distribution Box with proper grounding. To
check whether floating voltage exists between HDMI cable and VWC-46S housing. Power on the system
after finishing all connections to avoid system damage by floating voltage among devices.
4.4 When VWC-46S power is switched on, the booting time is about 19 seconds and the Input & Output LEDs
on front panel will stay “Lighted” while VWC-46S has correct input source and output monitor connections.
5 Step 5 - System setting: Box ID, RS232, Ethernet
5.1 The system setting for Box ID, RS232 and Ethernet can be set through CH-1 or CH-2. Please make
sure to connect monitor to the channel to see the OSD and execute system setting.
5.2 User can control VWC-46S directly from Ethernet. The default static IP address is 192.168.0.100. User
can change the IP address for further operation.
5.3 When multiple units are used in the same environment, user can set different IP address or Box ID for
each unit so that user can execute independent control to each AV-BOX without interference.
5.4 Box ID range is from #0 - #99. When user uses remote controller to control the system through OSD,
the maximum ID setting for remote controller is #0 - #9.
5.5 Remote Controller
User can control individual AV-BOX through below method when all boxes or IR extender
receivers are installed together so that all units can receive the same IR signal.
To Press 851 number keys on remote controller will lock all other AV-BOX OSD menu except
ID #1 AV-BOX. User can see flashing LED on the Front Panel for the units with OSD locked.
To Press 853 will only unlock ID # 3 AV-BOX for further OSD operation.
Press 850 will unlock all AV-BOX OSD menu. Remote controller can access to all AV-BOX
simultaneously.
5.6 RS232 setting
Able to select RS232 baud rate between 9600 & 115200 for different controller system.
5.7 Ethernet
User can connect all AV-BOX and PC in one Ethernet (or WiFi) Router (or switch hub) LAN ports
and set at DHCP or different Static IP address for each Box.
User can check IP address under [Ethernet] OSD menu. Then connect AV-BOX through Chrome
or Explorer by IP address to open WebGui for further operation.
8
UHDWall Manager PC tool is also provided to control each AV-BOX independently through USB
or Ethernet connection.
If user connects PC to the same Router and set Router with DHCP mode, PC can access to AV-
BOX directly. If PC is not connected with the same Router, user needs to set PC with the same
Domain Segment as AV-BOX for Ethernet connection.
6 Step 6 - Input Source / Output Resolution selection & LED Indicators
VWC-46S has only one HDMI input port. System default input is HDMI. No need to change.
The output resolution selection will apply to two output channels at the same time.
Output resolution list: 1920x1200, 1920x1080, 1280x720, 1360x768, 1280x800, 1024x768, 1080p@50,
1080p@30, 1080p@24, Deep Color on/off.
User can select output resolution by remote controller. When press [OTH] key, the image will blink and
switch resolution among 1920x1200, 1280x720 and 1360x768 continuously. Please confirm the final
result by INFO key on top of remote controller.

All default output resolution is 60Hz, RGB 4:4:4 format and progressive. When input source is 50Hz,
please select the output resolution at 50Hz to reduce the artifact in frame rate conversion.
Input resolution is determined by signal source. VWC-46S can support non-VESA standard input timing.
User can click [Info] key to get system information and see input & output signal resolution.
The input refresh rate should be the same as output refresh rate so that the system can implement
Frame Lock to synchronize all the outputs. If the input source is 50Hz with 60Hz output, then it is
possible to see some lag among the displays.
7 Step 7 – Conventional Video Wall Settings
Press Remote Controller to activate [Video Wall] menu. WebGui and UHDWall Manager PC tool are available
for Ethernet configuration and video wall settings.
