VIP DRIVE 10-5 NOVA

VIP Drive 10-5 Nova is a streamlined all-in-one video processor that outputs signal to any Nova Star video panel. The integrated 3-layer Scaler supports full screen, pixel to pixel, and custom scaling options. VIP Drive 10-5 NOVA can automatically scale to the wall detected and detect connected video panels and strips in the Smart-LCT mapping software without the need to manually input panel/strip resolution. The powerful, standalone mapping configures most video walls without a computer, and the custom mapping function is fast and easy with on-screen visual feedback. With 10 Ethernet video outputs, VIP Drive 10-5 Nova supports 4K at 6.55 million LED resolution.

VIP DRIVE 83RNOVA

VIP Drive 83RNova is a streamlined all-in-one video wall mapper/ switcher for use with the Novastar video control protocol. With three inputs, eight outputs, it will map your video wall, switch your video source, and handle sending/receiving via fi ber for long transmissions, eliminating the need for individual mappers and video switchers.

DRBF100CM – DRBF50CM

The DRBF100CM and the DRBF50CM are newly designed rig bars that perform dual functions. The may be used to hang the video wall overhead, and also for ground stacking purposes, by adding in the new GROUNDSUPPORT2KIT.

GROUNDSUPPORT2KIT

The GROUNSSUPPORT2KIT is a ground support/stacking system that utilizes the new dual function rig bars to provide a clean, professional setup for your clients. The GROUNSSUPPORT2KIT can support a 2.5 wide x 3m tall section of video panels.

DRBCURVEKITX2

The DRBCURVEKITX2 curves the new dual function rig bars above. Included in the box are 2pcs 5 degree brackets and 2pcs 10 degree brackets which support concave curves.

VIDCURVEKIT

The VIDCURVEKIT curves the F2, F5IP, F4IP, and F4XIP in 5 and 10 degree concave angles, and is adjustable.
