What's in the kit
The 4 Poster Booth Kit Video Wall ships as four LED posters in two flight cases, plus the cables and the tool below. Have all of it on hand before you begin. The number on each badge is the quantity in the kit.
HDMI cords
Carry the video signal from one poster to the next down the row.
Power-link jumpers
Carry power between posters. White end goes to Power Out, blue end to Power In.
5mm Allen key
Turns the seam locks and edge locks. Every step on the wall uses this one tool.
10ft main power cable
Feeds the whole wall. Edison plug at the wall, blue Power In at poster 1.
Know your control panel
Every poster has the same control panel on the back. Four of these ports are used during assembly: Power In, Power Out, HDMI IN, and HDMI OUT.
1Unload the posters from the flight cases
Roll each poster out of its flight case. Every poster stands on a wheeled base, so you can move it into position without lifting it.
Open the case and lower the ramp to roll the posters out. Spare parts and cords are stored in the top compartments, marked with red arrows.
2Stand each poster up and lock it
Stand the poster fully upright. At the middle seam there are two locks. Turn each one to the locked position with the Allen key to hold the poster rigid in the upright position.
Two locks at the middle seam hold the poster upright.
Turn the Allen key toward the closed-padlock icon to lock.
3Align the posters Right to Left
Find the numbered label on the back of each poster. Set them side by side in order from Right to Left: 1, 2, 3, 4, following the arrows on the labels. This order matters, the posters wire and display in this sequence.
Four posters aligned Right to Left, 1 through 4.
Poster 1 must be on the Right. The ViPlex Handy "From Right" mosaic setting builds the picture starting from poster 1. See the Poster & Booth Kit programming manual.
4Join the posters together
Unfold the magnetic trim along the inside edge of each poster to expose the locks underneath. There are four locks on each edge. Push the posters together and lock all four locks along each shared seam.
Unfold the magnetic side trim and turn the lock with the Allen key to secure the posters together.
Four locks per edge pull neighboring posters tight together.
If the floor is uneven and the edges will not line up, raise or lower the adjustable casters to level the posters before locking them together.
5Connect the main power
Plug the 10ft main power cable into the blue Power In port on the back of poster 1. Plug the other end into a dedicated 20A, 120V circuit.
Feed the wall from a dedicated 20A, 120V circuit. Do not share the circuit with other high-draw equipment.
6Daisy-chain power and video
Now link the posters together, one to the next, down the row. Do the power chain first, then the video chain.
Power: take a power-link jumper. Plug the white end into Power Out on the right side of poster 1 and the blue end into Power In on poster 2. Repeat down the line until every poster has power.
Video: plug an HDMI cord into HDMI OUT on poster 1 and into HDMI IN on poster 2. Continue down the line until all four posters are chained together.
The wall is now powered and chained. Continue to the Poster & Booth Kit programming manual (ViPlex Handy) to link the displays and load your content.
Troubleshooting
No power to a poster
Check the jumper: white end in Power Out, blue end in Power In. Confirm the main cable is in poster 1 and the circuit is live.
One poster is dark on the wall
Check the HDMI chain into that poster. HDMI OUT of the previous poster must go to HDMI IN of the dark one.
Edges will not line up
Level the posters with the adjustable casters before locking the seam. Uneven floors are the usual cause.
Gap at a seam
Make sure the magnetic trim is folded back and all four edge locks are engaged and turned to the locked position.
Poster will not stay upright
Both middle-seam locks must be turned to the locked position to hold the poster rigid.
Breaker trips
The wall needs its own 20A, 120V circuit. Move other equipment off the circuit.
