Users also can do the Video wall settings on the WEB GUI bottom by simply adding the x&y(x: for the rows; y: for column).

Note: that this video wall function only works with the 1080P HDMI/HDBaseT and 4K60 HDMI output card only.
Below the steps to create the video walls:
Step1: Enter the video wall Row(x) and column(y) numbers, and then click “add”, example to create a 2×2:

Step 2: Click “add” to create the 2×2 video wall, then drag the outputs to the video wall box.

Users can have multiple video walls by the same way to create, for the 9×9 matrix switcher, the video wall configuration will be limited to 9, it means the configuration could be 3×4 video wall.

To delete the video wall, users will only need to enter the video wall number in the del box and click “del’.
