VX6S All-in-One LED Video Controller
Product status: this listing marks the VX6S as discontinued. Its originally recommended replacement was the VX600, whose current listing also marks it discontinued and points to the VX600 Pro. Confirm connection and control requirements when selecting a replacement.
The NovaStar VX6S (VX6s in the documents) combines LED sending and video processing. It supports seven video inputs, six Gigabit Ethernet outputs, three windows and USB media playback. Direct and Switcher modes serve different operating workflows, with PVW/PGM monitoring through the DVI monitor output.

Direct Mode, Switching and USB Playback
Direct mode supports monitoring of displayed content. In Switcher mode, the TAKE button sends the preview (PVW) to program (PGM) using the selected transition. Full-screen, pixel-to-pixel and custom window scaling are available. Output timing can lock to HDMI, SDI or DVI input when linking multiple units.
For HDMI/DVI custom input, the connector descriptions list widths up to 3840 pixels in Direct mode (3840 × 648 at 60 Hz) or 2048 pixels in Switcher mode (2048 × 1200 at 60 Hz). HDMI and DVI do not support interlaced input.
The rear USB 2.0 ports accept a mouse/keyboard or a drive for media playback. The specified drive formats are FAT/FAT32; the drive must not be partitioned or used as a system startup disk. Supported image formats include JPG, JPEG, BMP, PNG and WEBP. Video containers include MP4, AVI, MKV, MOV, 3GP, FLV and MPG; codec compatibility must also match the PDF’s media table.
Software and Document Version Notes
The original manual describes using NovaLCT to prepare/import cabinet configuration files and update device firmware. The front-panel OLED, knob and buttons provide local control.
The linked V1.1.1 user manual predates the V1.3.0 specification. The specification’s change history states that OSD was removed in V1.2.0; OSD instructions in the older manual should therefore not be treated as a current supported feature. The V1.3.0 specification lists a 0°C to +45°C operating range.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many pixels and windows does VX6S support?
The total LED load is up to 3.9 million pixels, with maximum width and height of 4096 pixels each. It supports three adjustable windows, subject to the overall output limits.
What does TAKE do in Switcher mode?
TAKE switches the preview image to the program output using the transition effect selected previously. The DVI monitor connector can show PVW or PGM.
Can VX6S play media from a USB drive?
Yes. Use a FAT or FAT32 drive that is not partitioned or used as a system startup disk. Check both the file container and codec against the media-format table in the specification.
Does VX6S still support OSD?
The V1.3.0 specification records removal of the OSD function in V1.2.0. The retained V1.1.1 manual is older and includes OSD instructions that do not establish support in later versions.
Which software is documented for VX6S configuration?
The original user manual describes NovaLCT for cabinet configuration-file preparation/import and firmware updates. The device also offers local operation through its OLED menu, knob and buttons.
