You may have heard about sending controllers — whether you’re looking into investing in LED video walls, or maybe online. But you aren’t exactly sure what a sending controller is and what it’s used for?
We’ll go over the basics, and highlight a few different ones we utilize here at Firefly LED.
What is a Sending Controller used for in LED?
When you think of a traditional TV in your home, and how you use a DVD player or Cable box in order to send content to your television, this is exactly what a sending controller does for a LED display.
The LED sending controller is the device that hooks up to your LED video wall to send content. With various inputs like HDMI and DVI, you can use different types of devices to display graphics, video and more.
The Z4 starts at the more basic level of inputs and adjustments, the Z6 a step up from that including low latency, HDR support, Ultra HD resolution input, and up to 3 picture-in-picture screens with freely adjustment on locations.
Lastly, the Z6 Pro is the elite model in this series with 4k resolution, HDR, 3D video, 16 picture-in-picture layers, and supports USB, LAN and RS232 control.
