With advanced device finder, PC-GUI gives an advanced top level management interface to control all the VERSAs on the network. -
Page 13: Working
VERSA-4K Working Architecture VERSA uses Client-Server architecture, where each function such as Video, Audio, USB, IR, RS-232 is considered as a service. VERSA-4K-S (Sender) being a server, provides services independently under one Group ID. Each VERSA-4K-R (Receiver) in the network acts a client and receives a service by joining in the group using Group A Receiver should have the same Group ID as sender to receive a service. -
Page 14: General Settings
VERSA-4K General Settings Device Name User can assign Device Name to VERSA, which can be used to identify its Location or Purpose. Device Names are useful for Logical representation of the system in big installations and they are not linked to IP address. For instance, all the Receivers connected to the projectors in a school can have Room Number as Device Name. -
Page 15: Video Over Ip
VERSA-4K Fig 10. Independent Routing Note that, Audio only works when there is a active Video Group. Video Over IP VERSA-4K-S uses visually lossless compression to encode 4K Video. Along with bit rate and Frame rate adjustments, Sender provides Various Quality modes and Bit Rate adjustments to minimize the network bandwidth. -
Page 16: Video Scaler
VERSA-4K multicast mode, a receiver in the group can send an EDID Update Request to replace Custom EIDD with its attached Sink EDID. A Receiver automatically sends an Update Request when Display is detected, if "Use this EDID" option is enabled. When multiple receivers sends an EDID update request, the last received request will be successful. - Page 17 VERSA-4K Fig 10. Video Wall Layout For example, to build a 2x2 (two by two) Video Wall, which has 2 rows and 2 columns. So, Horizontal Monitor Count [X] = 2, Vertical monitor Count [Y] =2 A total of 4 Receivers are required to build this wall and they can be positioned at: (0,0) , (0,1) , (1,0), and (1,1) Each Receiver includes a Video Wall Preview in its WEB-GUI, which helps to visualize the wall.

Page 22: Serial Over Ip
VERSA-4K Serial Over IP Both Sender and Receiver supports two types of modes to control RS-232 devices. In Pass Through mode, all the bytes from the senders are multicast to all the receivers in the group, like wise all the bytes from the receiver is directed to the sender in the group. The Guest mode allows 3rd party control systems to control serial devices over IP. -
