Planar WallDirector Video Controller

Planar® WallDirector™ Video Controller (VC) is a family of compact and scalable video processors designed to drive select Planar video walls using the web-based Planar® WallDirector™ Software management application. The 1U rack mount Planar WallDirector VC is available in six models for organization’s unique applications. Each device captures multiple 4K inputs and drives the video wall at native resolution while providing signal extension over CAT or fiber connections.

Advanced Processing

Planar® Big Picture Plus™ Video Wall Processing enables users to simultaneously view ultra-high resolution content from several independent sources, scaling content across the entire video wall or any section. It also facilitates Picture-in-Picture.

Scalable by Design

Cascade up to 18 Controllers together to support larger video walls and higher resolutions. Planar WallDirector Software manages Planar WallDirector VC groups as if they are one system rather than multiple separate units.

Easy Management

The user-friendly Planar WallDirector Software features one-button presets for set-up and configuration, recalling windowing layouts, dragging and dropping content sources on the video wall canvas and easy manipulation of window size and position. One can even overlap content sources.

Monitor Health

Planar WallDirector Software captures video wall components’ health status in real time, in a centralized, convenient location, for easy maintenance. Configurable alerts also help keep you informed. The software, in most cases, can detect the hardware components that are part of the video wall, making setup quick.

Permissions

Set user permission levels in the software to ensure only the people you choose have access to setup and others more-critical administration settings. Similarly, set non-admin permissions that allow others to monitor the health of individual components.

Source Synchronization

Planar® WallSync™ uses Smart Genlock to automatically ensure perfectly synchronized video playback without manual configuration.
