NovaCX80Pro

ORDER CODE: NOVACX80PRO

The CX80 Pro is a flagship 8K LED display controller in the brand-new control system COEX series of NovaStar. This controller offers rich video input connectors (HDLMI 2.1, HDLMI 2.0, DP 1.4 and 12G-SDI) and supports 5Gbps output via Ethernet port and 40Gbps remote transmission via optical port. It can also work with the brand-new software VMP (Vision Management Platform) to provide a better operation and control experience.
Based on modular design, the CX80 Pro uses pluggable cards that can be easily replaced and maintained. Besides, the CX80 Pro comes with a 5.5-inch touch LCD, making user operation and control much easier. 

 


Features

- Input card 1 (Max connector capacity: 8K@60Hz) 4x 12G-SDI+1x HDLMI 2.1+1x DP 1.4
- Input card 2 (Max connector capacity: 4K@60Hz) 4x 12G-SDI+4x HDLMI 2.0
- Input mosaic: 12G-SDI and HDLMI 2.0 support input mosaic.
- 12-bit, 10-bit and 8-bit video inputs
- 3 types of outputs: 16x 5Gbps Ethernet ports, 2x 40Gbps optical ports, 1x SPDIF digital audio port
- 3 types of controls: 1x Genlock signal input (with loop through), 2x Ethernet control ports, 1x Auxiliary port


Advanced Functions
- Image scaling: Support 2 image scaling modes: custom and pixel to pixel.
- Color Replacement: Support free replacement of any color on the image without affecting the performance of other colors. Replacement of highly saturated colors is recommended for better effect. 
- 14Ch Color Correction: Support precise adjustment to hue, saturation and brightness of black, white and the 12 derived standard colors of the red, green and blue primary colors.
- Curves: Support adjustment to the image RGBW mapping curves.
- 3D LUT: The 17×17×17 3D LUT .cube files are supported to adjust the video source colors.
- Dynamic Booster: Real-time analysis and dynamic adjustment are made to each frame to significantly improve the display contrast and image details for better visual experience, and effectively control and lower the display power consumption, extending
the service life of the LED screen.
- Full Grayscale Calibration: Work with NovaStar's high-precision calibration system and the C3200 scientific grade camera to generate unique calibration coefficients for each grayscale, ensuring uniformity of each grayscale and dramatically improving the image quality.
- HDLR: Support HDLR10 and comply with the SMPTE ST 2084 and SMPTE ST 2086 standards, Support HLG.
- Latency: Support low latency and the controller load capacity is not reduced. The latency at the controller is 0 frame (less than 1 ms) in Send-Only Controller working mode and 1 frame in All-In-One Controller working mode.
- Support additional frame latency: Zero to four frames of latency can be added at the controller.
- Frame Rate Adaptive The controller can be adaptive to various video input frame rates, including decimal frame rates. Custom frame rates are also supported and the step size of fine tuning frame rate is as small as 0.01 Hz.
- Two working modes: Support the All-In-One Controller and Send-Only Controller working modes.  In the Send-Only Controller mode, the latency can be reduced by one frame.  In the All-In-One Controller mode, the scaling function is available.
- Display system monitoring: Support monitoring of the device status and screen status. Any fault and alarm information can be reported actively.

 

Device Controls
- Touch LCD: Come with a 5.5-inch 1080p touch LCD. It is sensitive and rugged, allowing users to control the device easily by tapping on the LCD.
- VMP software control: The device can be connected to the VMP software to provide easy and convenient operations and smart device management.
- Cascading control via Ethernet: The Gigabit Ethernet control ports support TCP/IP protocol and star topology. No switch or router is needed to deploy multiple devices on the same LAN via device cascading as the network switching function is already built in.
