Overview

The Absen PL V2 Series is a display product specifically engineered for stage rental applications, making it ideal for large-scale events such as concerts, shows, auto shows, and business activities where high-quality video broadcast and information release are crucial. This series offers a comprehensive range of pixel pitches, including indoor versions (PL1.9 V2, PL2.5 XR V2, PL2.5 Pro V2, PL2.5 Plus V2, PL2.9 V2, PL3.9 V2, PL2.9 Plus V2, PL3.9 Plus V2) and outdoor versions (PL2.9 Pro V2, PL3.9 Pro V2, PL3.9W Plus V2, PL4.8 Pro V2, PL4.8W Plus V2). The product line also includes curve versions (PL2.5 Pro & PL2.9), providing enhanced flexibility for creative stage designs.

The PL V2 series cabinets are constructed from die-casting aluminum, ensuring excellent flatness, high-quality finish for both the cabinet and modules, and superior structural strength. This robust design contributes to the display's reliability and aesthetic appeal in demanding rental environments.

Usage Features

The PL V2 series display is designed for versatile installation, supporting both rigging and stacking configurations. A key feature is its advanced locking system with a safety mechanism, which facilitates one-person installation, significantly streamlining setup times for events. The curved lock mechanism allows for radian connections ranging from -7.5° convex to +10° concave, offering unlimited flexibility in design and enabling the creation of dynamic and immersive visual experiences.

For hanging installations, the system utilizes single or double hanging bars, and even a 90-degree hanging bar for specific configurations. These hanging bars are capable of supporting a substantial number of panels: up to 20 500x500mm panels or 10 500x1000mm panels. The installation process involves fixing the hanging bar to a truss, aligning the cabinet's safe lock with the mounting hole on the beam, pressing the locking plate, inserting the safe lock, and then tightening the safe lock from left to right, followed by the second cabinet. Detailed installation steps are also available via product installation videos.

Stacking installations are also supported, with cabinets equipped with curved locks to achieve radian connections from -7.5° to +10°. For floor tile screen applications, specific precautions are necessary. Two M3 fixing screws must be installed on the lower side of the power supply box to prevent it from loosening or falling. This is particularly important for PL3.9W Plus V2 (500x500mm cabinet), PL3.9 Pro V2 (500x500mm cabinet), PL4.8W Plus V2 (500x500mm cabinet), and PL4.8 Pro V2 (500x500mm cabinet) models when used as floor tiles. Each panel requires two screws on the power box. After installing the box and connecting the wires, 12 M1.6*12mm screws are used to install an acrylic board on each box. It is crucial to implement a constraint coverage structure around the entire screen to prevent displacement of the PC mask during strong vibrations. The floor tile screens boast a load capacity of 2000KG/SQM.

Before cabling, users must carefully verify the power and signal circuit connections to prevent short circuits between the L, N, and PE lines of each cabinet's AC power input using a multimeter. Power connection instructions emphasize calculating and selecting the appropriate distribution box or socket based on maximum power consumption. The input voltage for cabinets is 100-240V/AC, utilizing 3X2.5mm/sqm power cables between the distribution box and the cabinet. The number of cabinets loaded per power cable varies depending on voltage and product models. Network and power cables for all series are connected via aviation connectors. It is recommended that connecting cables pass through the cabinets as much as possible. After wiring, a multimeter should be used to check for short circuits between the AC input (L/N/PE) and DC output (VCC/GND) of the power supply.

The display supports high-definition content playback, including video, text, and images. It is advised to match the content resolution with the screen's resolution to avoid compression and maintain optimal performance. Software operations are detailed in a separate instruction manual. The number of cabinets that wires can carry varies based on cabinet size and input voltage, with specific tables provided for AC220V and AC110V environments. The resolution should be calculated based on each box pixel, and the signal line connected according to the sending card's load range, with a maximum of 655360 pixels per network port.
