Frequently Asked Questions
Is the NovaStar VX16S still in production?
The existing listing marks VX16S as discontinued and recommends VX2000 Pro. Review the replacement’s inputs, layer functions and screen setup before ordering.
How many layers can the VX16S display?
It supports three independent layers: one 4K × 2K main layer and two 2K × 1K PIP layers. Layer priorities are adjustable.
Can HDMI or a DVI Mosaic source be placed in a PIP layer?
The V1.0.0 specification restricts HDMI and DVI Mosaic sources to the main layer. Plan PIP sources using the supported input and layer assignments.
Does enabling 3D change the VX16S loading capacity?
Yes. The specification states that the device output capacity is halved with 3D enabled. Recheck the screen map before using the normal-mode capacity for a 3D setup.
Can the VX16S accept 4K60 HDMI at every color depth?
The supported format matters. V1.0.0 lists 4K60 for 8-bit RGB/YCbCr 4:4:4 and YCbCr 4:2:2. At 10-bit/12-bit, 4:4:4 is limited to 3840 × 1080 at 60 Hz; YCbCr 4:2:2 supports 4K60. YCbCr 4:2:0 is not supported.
