Dare to configure a receiving card?

This is what gets adjusted in NovaLCT when a screen looks wrong. Four settings, 81 combinations and only one right one. Keep changing them until the image comes out clean… or call the technician.

Fixed. That's how quick it is for someone who knows what's inside your screen.

A simplified simulation, just to get the idea across. A real receiving card has many more parameters, and each module model has its own.

Free NovaStar software for LED screens

Below you'll find the main software we use to manage our installations. The links are the official NovaStar ones. We tell you what each one is for, how hard it is… and what usually goes wrong.

PCContent

Viplex Express — Content management (PC)

Difficulty Easy

Viplex Express is the most widely used content management software for PC on NovaStar LED screens. It allows you to schedule and update screen content —images, videos, text and animations— easily, with a clear visual interface that requires no prior technical knowledge.

With Viplex Express you can:

  • Create playlists with multiple content zones.
  • Schedule broadcast times by day and time slot.
  • Update content directly from your computer via USB, WiFi or local network.
  • Manage multiple screens simultaneously from a single device.

What usually goes wrong: the first time. Finding the player on the network and pairing it is where almost everyone gets stuck.

AndroidiOS

Viplex Handy — Mobile app (Android and iOS)

Difficulty Very easy

Viplex Handy is the smartphone and tablet version of Viplex Express. Available on Android and iOS, it allows you to manage screen content from your mobile without needing a computer. Ideal for businesses where the owner needs to update messages in seconds from anywhere.

What usually goes wrong: nothing, if the screen is already properly set up on the network. If it isn't, your phone won't find it.

WindowsTechnicians

NovaLCT — Advanced technical configuration

Difficulty Technicians only

NovaLCT is the technical hardware configuration tool for NovaStar controllers. It is used in the initial startup of the screen and in maintenance interventions: resolution adjustment, colour calibration, brightness configuration, module mapping and firmware updates.

It is the software used by LEDLEMON technicians in every installation. Regular users do not need to use it except in exceptional circumstances.

What usually goes wrong: one wrong parameter and the screen shows blocks, goes black or is left with half-installed firmware. Try it above.

WindowsControl rooms

Kompass FX3 — Professional multimedia playback

Difficulty Advanced

Kompass FX3 is NovaStar's professional playback software, designed for fixed installations that require managing complex visual content with high reliability: control rooms, data centres, auditoriums, conference centres. It offers greater control over the input signal, content layers and synchronisation.

What usually goes wrong: input signals, layers and synchronisation. In a control room there's no margin for trial and error.
