For example, if you have three 2 x 2 display zones (video walls) set up, and each is playing a profile, you can enable this function to have the assigned source displayed separated on each of the 4 monitors. Note this function is only available when a display zone is displaying a profile that contains grouped output.

To enable this function, press the Menu pushbutton and press the Down pushbutton to navigate to the option and press pushbutton 4 to activate the function.

Overview

The VM3200 / VM3250 can be configured over a standard TCP/IP connection via its built-in Graphical User Interface (GUI). Because it can be accessed from anywhere over a network or the Internet, operators can easily log in via web browser. Security is ensured by password protection and user-configurable time-out. The VM3200 / VM3250 supports three levels of remote users with various privileges, and up to 16 users can log into the GUI at one time. For full details see the sections that follow.

Logging In

To access the GUI, type the VM3200 / VM3250's IP address into the address bar of any browser. If a Security Alert dialog box appears, accept the certificate – it can be trusted. The login screen appears:

Understanding Profiles and Profile List

A profile is a set of settings that specifies how audio and video sources are to be displayed or played on one or more video walls and speakers. You can create and save up to 64 profiles to the Profile List to be conveniently switched via the front panel, web console (GUI), or the Video Matrix Control app as needed.

Note: For more information on the Video Matrix Control app, see Video Matrix Control App User Manual.

Understanding Display Zones

In your modular matrix switch application, you may more than one video wall set up – for example, a 2 x 2 video wall, a 4 x 4 video wall, and a single-monitor display, all managed by one VM3200 / VM3250. In this case, you have three display zones. To be able to switch profiles independently on just one display zone, instead of on all the display zones, use the zone tabs to help you organize and create profiles. You can create profiles for up to 4 display zones. A profile created for a display zone can only be configured under that display zone.

Example

In the illustrated Profile List below, the profiles are created for three display zones (A, B, and C). Three profiles (profile 1 to 3) are created for zone A, and profile 4 to 6, created under zone B and C are not configurable under zone A.

PROFILE LIST Zone A: Show OSD Mute All Blank All 8 1x1 [ Profile 1 ] Profile_01 1 2 3 4 1x1 [ Profile 2 ] Profile_02 1x1 [ Profile 3 ] Profile_01 Occupied by Zone B 2 3 4 5 Occupied by Zone B 1 2 3 4 Occupied by Zone C 2x2 [ Profile 4 ] Profile_04 [ Profile 5 ] Profile_04 1x1 [ Profile 6 ] Profile_05 Select a profile to play

Creating a Profile

1. Prepare and gather the following information.

- Know which display zone the profile is created for.

For information on the working of profiles on multiple display zones, see Understanding Display Zones, page 71.

- For easier switching, create profiles for a particular zone in consecutive profile numbers. For example, you can reserve profile 1 to 10 for zone A, profile 11 to 20 for zone B, etc.

1. (Optional) To name or re-name a display zone, click on the zone tab.
2. From the Profile List, click the zone tab of the display zone to which you want to apply the profile.

- In-Board: Use this set of settings to configure the IR/RS-232 signals for each input port.

• Port 1 \~ Port 32: Configure each input port to use the Local IR/RS-232, Tx IR/RS-232, or Loopback for IR/RS-232 signals.

• Board:

• Broadcast (1-All): Controls all the connected devices simultaneously.

• Manual: Controls specified devices simultaneously. Click Edit to select devices.

Use Loopback for the IR/RS-232 signals to be sent back to local source or local display device connected to the same port on the same I/O board. This allows you to use the IR/RS-232 connection to control devices locally. Loopback prevents the IR/RS-232 signals from being sent across the connection to another I/O board. The Loopback setting is useful when you use a VM8514/VM8584 board to extend displays but use a different board type (not VM7514/VM7584) for input devices and want to use the IR/RS-232 signals for local control.

• RS-232 Command Line: Use this setting to remotely control a connected device via RS-232 commands.

• Connection: Sets the connection path for the IR/RS-232 signals.

• Use the drop-down menu to select Follow Video Path to have the IR/RS-232 signal use the same connection path as the profile settings.

• Use the drop-down menu to select Broadcast (1-All) to broadcast the IR/RS-232 signal from one port to all ports. Use the drop-down menu that appears to select the port that broadcasts the IR/RS-232 signal.

- Out-Board: Use this set of settings to configure the IR/RS-232 signals for each output port.

- Port 1 \~ Port 32: Configure each output port to use the Local IR/RS-232, Rx IR/RS-232, or Loopback setting for the IR/RS-232 signals.

Note: By default the RS-232 Return Path uses the lowest port number available for a connection. This setting can not be changed.
