Screen Configuration
The NovaLCTMars software has many configuration settings for any panel assembly connected to the VIP
Drive 43Nova. The options are divided into 3 tabs that appear on a window after clicking Screen
Configuration, selecting the product under Current Operation Communication Port, and clicking the
Next button.
Sending Card Tab
On the Sending Card tab, the resolution and refresh rate can be set. From this tab the product's
redundancy can be set, system configurations can be saved, and the product can also be restored to
factory default settings.
Receiving Card Tab
On the Receiving Card tab, the parameters sent to the software the last time this tab was viewed will be
displayed. This tab displays many options that can be edited, but Chauvet does NOT recommend altering
any of them. From this tab the firmware for connected video panels can be uploaded and downloaded.
Screen Connection Tab
On the Screen Connection Tab, there are three options for configuring the size of the connected panel
assembly, the distribution between video output ports, and the data flow: Simple, Standard, and Complex.
•
Simple Screen mode functions the same way the
•
Standard Screen mode allows the data flow and port distribution to be programmed manually with
a visual interface.

Complex Screen mode allows the configuration to be entered in a flow chart by driver number, port,
and panel number, as well as dimensions and offset coordinates in pixels.
