7.1 - Preface
The overhead monitors (or lane monitors) are installed on the Bowl Return area.
The 4HD/5HD-CPU is the graphic engine of the BES X system, that can provide up to two independent video
outputs for the scoring system, but can control (monitor ON/OFF, channel change, etc. only on supported
monitors) up to three monitors (two for the scoring system and one with an independent video signal). The
4HD/5HD-CPU unit must be fixed to a vertical surface near the overhead monitors (please refer to the “BES
X Pre-installation manual for further information). This unit communicates and takes power from the
4HD/5HD-HUB (located on the back of the curtain wall) through the network cable connected to the L1
connector and it is connected to the overhead monitor through the HDMI connectors.
The 4HD/5HD-CPU have to be fixed to the monitor frame, with the L1 connector facing upward. QubicaAMF
monitor frames are designed to fix this unit on them. If, for any reason, is not possible to fix the 4HD/5HD-
CPU unit to the monitor frame (i.e.: the monitor frame is not supplied by QubicaAMF) the 4HD/5HD-CPU
have to be fixed to a vertical surface NEAR the overhead monitors, in an area that ensures the correct air
recirculation, always with the L1 connector facing upward. NEVER install for any reason this unit on an
horizontal position, it will result in major damages to the 4HD/5HD-CPU unit itself.
7.2 - Monitor requirements
The image resolution provided by the 4HD/5HD-CPU is 1280x720.
In order to correctly visualize the image on the screen we strongly suggest to use monitors with “Just Scan”
(or “Screen Fit”) option present. The “Just Scan” (or “Screen Fit”) picture mode is a function that allows to
the image to fit the screen exactly without overlapping the sides of the screen.
If the “Just Scan” (or “Screen Fit”) capability is not present on the monitor, QubicaAMF will not assume any
responsibility for an incorrect visualization of the image. In this case we strongly recommend to test the
QubicaAMF equipment with the chosen monitor before the purchase.
In order to control the monitors from ConquerorPRO if the monitors support commands through the HDMI
connector (currently only for AccuVision Gen.3 and Gen.4 monitors) connect only the HDMI cable between
the 4HD/5HD-CPU and the monitor.
If the monitors purchased does not support command through the HDMI connector, the HDMI connection
between the 4HD/5HD-CPU and the monitor is not enough, so use the 288401007 cable to connect the
“CTRL” output of the 4HD/5HD-CPU to the serial control (male DB-9 connector) on the rear of the monitor
or the 610325206 cable connected to the “CTRL” output of the 4HD/5HD-CPU and fixed over the infrared
receiver of the monitor.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
1. For monitors supplied by QubicaAMF always set the ID of each monitor to 1 in order to control it
directly from a ConquerorPRO computer.
2. Not all of the monitors can be controlled. Please contact QubicaAMF Technical Support department
for further information.
3. Always disable the power saving or automatic switch-off option on each monitor, to avoid the
monitor turning off.
