Novastar MSD300 MSD300-1 LED Sending card For LED Screen
Introduction
The MSD300 is a sending card developed by NovaStar. It supports 1x DVI input, 1x audio input, and 2x Ethernet outputs. A single MSD300 supports input resolutions up to 1920×1200@60Hz.
The MSD300 communicates with PC via type-B USB port. Multiple MSD300 units can be cascaded via UART port.
As a highly cost-effective sending card, the MSD300 can be mainly used in the rental and fixed installation applications, such as concerts, live events, security monitoring centers, Olympic Games and various sports centers.
Features
⬤2 types of input connectors
− 1x SL-DVI
⬤2x Gigabit Ethernet outputs
⬤1x light sensor connector
⬤1x type-B USB control port
⬤2x UART control ports
They are used for device cascading. Up to 20 devices can be cascaded.
⬤Pixel level brightness and chroma calibration
Work with NovaStar’s high-precision calibration system to calibrate the brightness and chroma of each pixel, effectively removing brightness differences and chroma differences, and enabling high brightness consistency and chroma consistency.
