The VP-2000A line of video processors from Pixell are Windows 7 64 bit based multi input and multi-output image control devices that allows inputting of Component HD, Composite/S-Video, IP Camera MPEG decoding and Computer RGB/DVI/HDMI signals to be sized and placed on large venue video walls and multi display screens. These processors are intended for use in command and control environments, military applications, power plants, boardroom, network operations centers, security operations centers, video conferencing, and multimedia presentations. They are “Card Cage” type expandable systems that are built to order depending on the number and type of required inputs and outputs for a particular installation. Systems range from 1 to 24 chassis depending on number of slots needed for a particular configuration. All systems built to order.
Some features shown and listed in this document are optional. Not all inputs or outputs can be installed in a given chassis. Contact Pixell for legal configurations and quotations, all units built to order. Specifications subject to change without notice.

System Concepts: The VP-2000A series processors are designed to accept and aggregate multiple video signals, manipulate the size and placement of each image and re-display them on multiple large-scale displays such as a video wall or array of projectors or monitors. Since the VP processor is running the Windows 7/64 operating system, application software (i.e. Internet Explorer etc) can run locally and concurrently with windows showing external video source information while allowing window overlapping and user determined Z-order layouts. Image and window control is accomplished with Pixell’s Wall Control client and server software running on the processor itself. Wall Control client user interface typically is shown on the supported control monitor output which is separate from the main array outputs. Wall Control client can be configured to show what images are on the main array or wire frame representation as below. Wall Control client can also be installed on multiple customer owned network connected Windows 2000/XP/Vista/7 computers and interact with the processor remotely and concurrently.
Below is a conceptual overview of image flow and control modules:
Image Sources Processing/Image Control Video Wall/Image Array
Wall Control User Interface
Wall Control’s function is to manage what inputs are shown where and in what size on the output array. In addition it can manage applications software running on the processor like browser windows, etc.
Once a particular configuration of windows has been generated by corner dragging and or numeric size and location entry, it can be saved as a “layout” file that later can be recalled with a single mouse click or external command to the processor. (AMX, Creston, Etc) Multiple layouts can be generated and saved allowing operators to toggle between them for common scenarios. (The example below is untitled.lay)
Below is a screen shot of the Wall Control user interface driving a 4 wide x 3 high array of displays + control monitor. On the left side are 16 external hardware inputs available in this example configuration. (1 - 8 are VGA/DVI/HDMI/YPrPb and 9 - 16 composite / S-Video) The green box around the graphic for each input indicates a signal is present and what type it is. The wire frames showing the input number and signal type (Number and kind of inputs and output array will vary depending on hardware installed) To open a window, operator double clicks on desired input and a window wire frame appears on the output array. Then the size and position of window can be corner dragged or numerically defined. Once the window complement is complete, a snap shot can be taken and saved with a name, these are referred to as layouts. Later the same layout can be recalled with a single mouse click or call from external system. An unlimited number of layouts can be created and saved.
