Quick Start Guide
1. Install Software
Install the NEC Display Wall Calibrator software on the host PC. The serial number provided on either the CD-ROM
cover, or with your purchase will be required to install the software.
2. Connect color sensor
Connect the color sensor to a USB port on the host PC and verify the drivers are installed correctly.
3. Warm up displays
Power-on each of the displays in the video wall. The displays should be warmed up for at least 30 minutes before
calibrating.
4. Congure and connect displays
It is not necessary to connect the video output from the PC to any of the displays. The only connection to the displays
will be either RS232 and/or LAN (Ethernet). Wireless LAN can also be used from the host PC if using a wireless access
point or router.
See chapter 3 for detailed information about the various connection congurations.
5. Select the desired Calibration Method
In the Preferences dialog, on the Advanced tab, select the desired Calibration Method. The choice of selection will
depend on the type of video wall application being used, and the desired calibration results. See Calibration Method
Comparison section for a detailed explanation of the two different Calibration Methods, and how best to choose which
to use.
6. Dene Video Wall Layout and Connections
Use the “Layout Wizard” from the Edit menu to specify the number of displays, their layout, calibration order, and
connection method.
If necessary modify the connection settings for any display by using the Connection panel.
7. Verify Communications
Test the communications to all the displays by clicking the Verify All button on the Actions panel. This will attempt to
communicate with each display in the layout.
If there is an error in verifying communications with a display, see the troubleshooting guide in chapter 7:
As each display is successfully tested, it’s rectangle in the main window will change from Yellow to Cyan. Once all
displays are veried, it is possible to continue on with the next stage of the calibration process.
8. Verify Monitor Firmware
Verify that each display has the correct rmware in order to correctly support using NEC Display Wall Calibrator . Select
Verify Monitor Firmware from the Tools menu. Any displays that do not have supported rmware versions will need to
be updated. Contact NEC Display Solutions for the latest rmware.
