VMX Visual FAQs


The VMX Visual FAQ is designed to give serious buyers clear, direct answers — covering product specifications, pixel pitch selection, certifications, EU warehouse delivery, and installation requirements. Whether you're specifying a stage rental LED display, an outdoor advertising screen, an XR studio LED wall, or a commercial indoor video wall, this page will help you make a confident purchasing decision.

Section 1: Product & Technical Specifications

What types of LED displays does VMX Visual manufacture?

VMX Visual manufactures four professional LED display categories:

  • Stage Rental LED — lightweight, fast-assembly panels for concerts, festivals, and corporate events
  • Outdoor Advertising LED — high-brightness, weatherproof displays for billboards and large-format signage
  • XR Studio LED Wall — camera-optimised LED volumes for virtual production and in-camera VFX
  • Indoor Commercial LED — fine-pitch video walls for retail, corporate, hospitality, and control room environments
How do I choose the right pixel pitch for my application?

Pixel pitch determines the minimum comfortable viewing distance. The formula is straightforward:

Minimum viewing distance (metres) = Pixel pitch (mm) × 1,000

For example, a P3 display is best viewed from 3 metres or beyond. A P10 outdoor billboard is designed for viewing distances of 10 metres and above.

For stage rental, P2.6–P3.9 covers most concert and event applications. For outdoor billboards, P4–P8 is the standard range. For XR studio walls, P1.5–P2.6 is recommended depending on camera focal length and stage depth.

What brightness do I need?

Brightness requirements depend entirely on the installation environment:

  • Indoor commercial: 800–1,500 cd/m² — sufficient for ambient indoor light, comfortable for extended viewing
  • Semi-outdoor / covered outdoor: 2,500–4,000 cd/m²
  • Outdoor full sun: minimum 5,000 cd/m², with 6,000–8,000 cd/m² recommended for direct sunlight environments

Driving displays beyond their rated current to inflate brightness figures shortens panel lifespan significantly. Always ask for the photometric test report at rated drive current — not the peak specification.

What refresh rate should I require?

For standard event and advertising applications, a refresh rate of ≥ 3,840 Hz eliminates visible flicker for audiences and cameras.

For XR studio and virtual production applications, refresh rate is critical. Camera shutters operating at high frame rates will produce visible rolling bands on displays with insufficient refresh rates. VMX Visual's XR studio series is optimised specifically for high-speed camera workflows.

What IP rating do your outdoor displays have?

All VMX Visual outdoor LED displays carry a minimum IP65 rating — full dust protection and protection against water jets from any direction. This is the minimum acceptable standard for permanent outdoor installations.

For coastal environments, high-humidity climates, or locations exposed to salt air, contact our technical team to discuss enhanced sealing options.

How long will the display last?

VMX Visual LED displays are rated for 80,000–100,000 hours of operation — equivalent to 9–11 years of continuous 24/7 use at full brightness.

This lifespan is only achievable if panels undergo proper factory aging tests before shipment. We conduct 24–72 hour full-load aging tests on every production batch. Request the aging test certificate for your specific shipment before signing.

What types of LED display solutions do you offer?

A: We specialize in high-performance LED solutions, primarily for rental & staging applications. Our portfolio also includes premium fixed installation products for both indoor and outdoor environments, tailored for XR stages and Virtual Production.

What makes your LED panels more durable and reliable for heavy-duty use?

A: VMX panels are engineered with reinforced mechanical structures, such as our signature multi-screw module fixing system. This ensures superior structural stability, enhanced vibration resistance, and long-term performance consistency in demanding environments.

How to maintain fine-pitch LED displays (below 3.9mm)?

A: Fine-pitch LEDs require precision care. For enhanced serviceability, we offer the Mars Series, which supports full front maintenance. This design allows for rapid module replacement without rear access, significantly improving efficiency in space-limited or wall-mounted installations.

  2. Surface flatness verification — ± 1mm tolerance across the full panel face
  3. Brightness and white balance calibration — RGB ratio verified at 1 : 4.6 : 0.16
  4. 24–72 hour factory aging test — full-load continuous operation before packaging
  5. Final visual inspection — module uniformity and connector integrity check

Detailed quality documentation including test records and calibration reports is provided with every shipment.

Can I visit the factory before placing a large order?

Yes, and we actively encourage it. Factory visits are available at our Shenzhen and Huizhou manufacturing facilities. Buyers who visit consistently report it changes how they evaluate LED suppliers across the industry.

Contact sales@vmxvisual.com to arrange a visit — particularly valuable ahead of major trade shows like ISLE.

How does VMX ensure professional-grade product quality?

A: Every LED panel undergoes a rigorous QC protocol, including a 72-hour aging test, vibration testing, and calibrated color uniformity checks. For our outdoor series, we conduct stringent IP65 waterproof testing to ensure reliability in extreme weather.

Section 5: Installation & Technical Requirements

What structural requirements do LED displays have?

Load-bearing requirements vary by product and installation type. As a general guide:

  • Stage rental panels: designed for truss rigging and ground-supported stacking — confirm weight per m² with your rigging engineer
  • Outdoor fixed installations: require engineered steel mounting structures rated for local wind load standards
  • Indoor wall-mounted displays: typical load 20–35 kg/m² depending on cabinet type — verify wall construction load capacity before installation

Our technical team provides detailed load specifications and installation drawings for all products on request.

What control systems are compatible?

VMX Visual displays are compatible with the major professional LED control processors:

  • NovaStar — recommended for standard event and advertising applications
  • Colorlight — cost-effective option for fixed installations
