VIEWSPAN Solo ® is a video display controller for single Full HD or UHD screens, designed to display a wide range of video, graphics, digital signage, AV and data sources. VIEWSPAN Solo ® is an ideal networked display system for auxiliary monitors, spot monitors, retail displays, reception desks and manager's offices.

Display Controllers

The VIEWSPAN ® range of video display controllers are designed for a wide range of display and AV applications. They are built on dedicated hardware platforms which meet the performance and reliability requirements of video surveillance, security and AV applications. VIEWSPAN Solo ® is a compact unit, with a single HDMI output for a Full HD or 4K monitor. An additional VGA output may be used to drive a second Full HD monitor if required.

Optimised Software

The VIEWSPAN system incorporates highly optimised VIEWSPAN NEXUS® video processing software. Combined with VIEWSPAN Solo hardware, NEXUS produces super-smooth video, decoding up to 25 Full HD channels at 30 FPS across single or dual display outputs. See the table opposite for full decode performance at various stream resolutions. The larger rackmounted VIEWSPAN variants offer higher performance and multiple display outputs per unit.

Setup and Configuration

A simple web browser interface is used to configure all VIEWSPAN systems, allowing network setup, display arrangement and VMS/NVR integration settings. VIEWSPAN can be directly integrated with the VMS or integrated security management system, or can be used as an accelerator platform for the VMS display, controlling VIEWSPANs on a client through the browser interface.

Matrix View and Layout Patterns

VIEWSPAN Solo can be configured to match the physical monitor layout, e.g. a single screen, side-by-side dual screen, or stacked dual screen. However, use of a single Full HD screen via HDMI is recommended. The layout becomes a single canvas for displaying video. Regions are defined within this canvas and may be a fraction of a screen or spread across the full canvas. Each region can have pre-defined matrix layouts. The layouts can be selected manually or automatically via time schedules or triggered via networked alarms.

Video Stream Decoding

VIEWSPAN ® devices can decode almost any video stream format, with the most common being H.264 and H.265 for surveillance applications, at any resolution and frame rate. A higher number of streams can be decoded and displayed simultaneously if the resolution and/or frame rate is lower. For live video display applications, it is preferable to maintain a high frame rate (25 or 30 FPS) for smooth video.

High Resolution Display

Typically, display monitors will be Full HD resolution, although VIEWSPAN Solo is also capable of driving a UHD/4K monitor if required.

Input Sources

All VIEWSPAN systems can display video, graphics and data from many sources. These include AV (audio-visual) sources, IP cameras, NVR video playback, web pages, application screen capture (see VIEWCAST), encoders, digital signage, scrolling text, time and date. All of these sources can be decoded, scaled and displayed anywhere on the display canvas.

VIEWSPAN ® Range

A range of VIEWSPAN models suit different applications. All models run on the VIEWSPAN NEXUS software platform, (as a software-only licence). VIEWSPAN Plus 6, 9 and 12 screen models offer up to nine Full HD decodes per screen, with higher densities in the VIEWSPAN Pro range. VIEWSPAN AV can be specified to suit customer requirements including multiple direct AV capture inputs. VIEWCAST® is a screen capture software utility which generates VIEWSPAN® video streams from desktops or applications on Windows PCs.
