NovaStar KU20 is the most compact controller in the NovaStar COEX series. It takes one HDMI 1.3 source (with loop through) and drives up to 3.9 million pixels over 6 Gigabit Ethernet ports or one 10G fiber output, set up and run from NovaStar's VMP software.

Need Genlock, SDI or more layers? See the MX20; for 4K input, the MX30 and MX40 Pro. Compare all NovaStar COEX controllers.

Key Features

  • Inputs and outputs: 1x HDMI 1.3 input with loop through (up to 1920×1200@60Hz), 6x Gigabit Ethernet ports with hot backup (up to 3.9 million pixels) and 1x 10G optical output.

  • Calibration: pixel-level brightness and chroma calibration with NovaStar's calibration system.

  • Image Scaling: custom and pixel to pixel (All-In-One Controller mode).

  • No Rectangle Restriction: blank pixels on irregular screens don't count against load capacity.

  • Frame Rate Adaptive: decimal and custom frame rates with a step as small as 0.01 Hz.

  • System Monitoring: device and screen status with notifications for faults and alarms.

  • Two Working Modes: All-In-One Controller mode (layer and scaling) and Send-Only Controller mode.

  • VMP Software: connects to NovaStar's Vision Management Platform (VMP) for easy operation and device management.

  • Cascading via Ethernet: TCP/IP control ports in star topology, so several units can share a LAN without extra switches.

Function Limitations:

  • Frame Rate Adaptive needs A10s Pro receiving cards, specific driver ICs and an NCP file from NovaStar's Cabinet Tool.
  • Full Grayscale Calibration needs A10s Pro receiving cards.
  • Output is 8-bit; 10-bit output needs a customized program and A10s Pro receiving cards.
  • For low latency, all Ethernet ports must load cabinets vertically with the same Y coordinate.
  • Interlaced input is not supported.

Certifications: CCC, CE, FCC, IC, UL, CB, PSE, RCM, KC
