NovaStar VX1000 Pro Overview
The NovaStar VX1000 Pro is an all-in-one LED video controller that combines video processing and LED display control in one device. It provides 10 Gigabit Ethernet outputs, supports a loading capacity of up to 6.5 million pixels, and accepts video input up to 4K × 2K at 60Hz. A single unit can drive ultra-wide canvases up to 10,240 pixels or ultra-tall canvases up to 8,192 pixels.
Designed for medium- and high-end rental screens, stage systems, broadcast-style production and fine-pitch LED displays, the VX1000 Pro reduces rack complexity while retaining professional scaling, layer composition, fiber connectivity and backup functions. It can be operated from the front-panel knob, NovaLCT, the Unico web interface or the VICP mobile app.
Key Features
- 6.5-million-pixel capacity: Ten Gigabit Ethernet outputs support large LED canvases with a maximum width of 10,240 pixels and maximum height of 8,192 pixels.
- True 4K input: DP 1.2 and HDMI 2.0 connectivity supports input resolutions up to 4K × 2K at 60Hz.
- Multi-layer processing: Compose up to six layers with flexible position, size and scaling controls.
- Three working modes: Use the device as a video controller, fiber converter or in ByPass mode to match different signal workflows.
- Flexible fiber solution: Optical connectors support long-distance signal transmission and adaptable input or sending-card output workflows.
- Image-quality tools: Low latency, output synchronization, EDID management, color adjustment and pixel-level brightness and chroma calibration support consistent LED image quality.
- Kutamba kwe USB: Play compatible media directly from a USB drive for fast content checks or simple playback requirements.
- Operational resilience: End-to-end backup, Ethernet-port backup testing and data retention after power loss help support live-event reliability.

How the NovaStar VX1000 Pro Works
Video Controller Mode
In Video Controller mode, the VX1000 Pro receives and processes video sources before sending the mapped image to LED receiving cards through its Ethernet or optical output path. This mode provides scaling, layers, presets, color controls and other processing functions.

Fiber Converter mode is intended for long-distance optical transmission workflows. It allows the optical and Ethernet interfaces to bridge the signal path between control and display equipment. Confirm the required optical modules and fiber accessories for the planned topology before ordering.
ByPass Mode
ByPass mode provides a direct signal-routing option for workflows where independent video processing is not required. This can simplify backup or system-integration designs while retaining the controller’s professional connectivity.

Deployment Notes
Match the output resolution and Ethernet-port loading to the receiving-card configuration before connecting the screen. Use NovaLCT or the supported Unico workflow to configure the LED canvas, verify mapping and save tested presets. Firmware, software versions, optical modules, 3D accessories and some cabling requirements may vary by project; confirm compatibility with the complete LED control system before purchase.
