Introduction AV-BOX VWC-46L is 4 channel 4k/60 fps Video Wall controller. It is simplified version of VWC-46 with 1x HDMI 2.0 input, 1x HDMI 2.0 loop-out port for daisy chain connection and 4 synchronized HDMI outputs. Each output has independent image rotation/flip, scaling, cropping and color adjustment to allow great freedom in creating video wall with variable display scales and styles.
IR receiver is on Front Panel. One 3.5ø mm audio connector for IR extender is located at Back Panel of VWC-46L. 1.8m IR extension cable is equipped in the packing. User can add audio cable to extend the distance up to more than 20 meters.
System Setup Procedures Step 1 – Connecting The Inputs Please connect signal source to HDMI input port. User can also apply DVI-D signal but required DVI to HDMI adapter. Raw signal Loop Out HDMI Input source from HDMI input source connector Step 2 –...
User can connect any Loop Out signal to any HDMI input port in the next processing module or other devices. User can connect up to10 units of VWC-46L through daisy chain connection. The daisy chain connection number is related to source resolution and the quality of HDMI connection cables—poor cable will have less connection number and good cable can connect more units in daisy chain connection.
Power on the system after finishing all connections to avoid system damage by floating voltage among devices. When VWC-46L power is switched on, the booting time is about 19 seconds and the Input & Output LEDs on front panel will stay “Lighted” for the channel with correct input source and output monitor connections after finishing booting process.

For No. monitor: For No. monitor: Horizontal Pan = 3 Horizontal Pan = 3 Vertical Pan = 1 Vertical Pan = 2 [Overlap] – Bezel Compensation and Position Alignment [Overlap] adjustment changes the cropping area of the image so that image position in each monitor will be shifted.
User can use monitors with different dimensions, bezel size and resolution as display devices. No data base for monitor is required and it allows user to have installation position deviation. All of these factors can be corrected by AV-BOX video wall settings. ...

10 Flexible Aspect Ratio Adjustment User can use Video Wall [Overlap] function to change the aspect ratio of the image with black borders or to stretch the image in specific direction to compensate the aspect ratio difference between video wall and the content.
Draw the image into video wall and keep some blanking borders at some edges. 13.2 If the signal is from PC, user can set customized EDID in AV-BOX to let PC output the right output resolution. Some PC may not follow AV-BOX EDID resolution and require customized output setting...
14.2 Setup by Ethernet User can connect all VWC-46L in one Ethernet (or WiFi) Router (or switch hub) Lan ports and set different Static IP address for each Box, then use WebGui virtual keys or UHDWall Manager PC tool to control each VWC-46L independently.
UWM Manager is a PC tool executed through PC. User needs to download this tool from AV- BOX website. Once user connects VWC-46L with PC through Ethernet or USB and open UWM Manager, user can access UWM and execute all operation similar to OSD menu through PC...
RS232 and Ethernet are available for system control. They can be used simultaneously to provide the most flexibility in system control. 15.1 System Structure: VWC-46L is 4 channel processor. The structure is separate into two Groups: channel 1-2 is Group A and channel 3-4 is Group B.
Level 1 control can only be executed from CH-1. Please connect monitor to CH-1 for system settings. [Options] [Setting] [Box ID]: each VWC-46L has one Box ID for RS232 control. [Options] [Setting][Network]: RS232 and Ethernet settings [Profile] [Load] [Index] In RC-700 remote controller, it will apply to Group A and Group B separately.
If set [Standby Time] at 60, the system will get into Standby Mode after 60 seconds when no input signal is detected. The output signals from VWC-46L will also be terminated at the same time. If VWC-46L detects input signal again, it will automatically turn on the system again.
User can use < > OSD direction keys to access the position for the modification and ˄ ˅ OSD direction keys to change the IP address settings. If WiFi router is connected, VWC-46L can be controlled through WiFi by PC, mobile phone or iPad. ...
HDCP compliant issues: If the input source or the monitors are not HDCP compliant, it is possible to stop VWC-46L from negotiating HDCP link and show intermittent, abnormal or no image. Bit Rate or resolution issues: check if signal source and connecting cables can provide right resolution and data rate supported by VWC-46L.
Apart from what is detailed in User Guide, maintenance should be carried out by competent technician assigned by AV-BOX. If VWC-46L is physically damaged, it should be returned for repair using AV- BOX RMA procedures. If the unit is opened by user, it will lose the right for warranty protection.
