The NovaStar MCTRL R5 LED Wall Processor is packed with features that set it apart from other controllers on the market. Here are some of its standout capabilities:

One of the most innovative features of the MCTRL R5 is its ability to rotate images at any angle. This functionality is particularly useful for creative installations, such as advertising displays, event presentations, and architectural designs. The controller supports both port rotation (rotating individual Ethernet ports) and screen rotation (rotating the entire display).

• Port Rotation: Rotate the display of cabinets loaded by specific Ethernet ports.
• Screen Rotation: Rotate the entire LED display uniformly.

Note: Image rotation is not supported for 10-bit video inputs and requires prior screen configuration in SmartLCT.

The MCTRL R5 offers a variety of input connectors to accommodate different video sources:

• 1x 6G-SDI
