Example configurations
Below you can find some example configurations for specific video wall layouts.
The examples were created using Nvidia Quadro RTX 4000 GPUs and Supermicro X11SPA-T motherboard. GPUs should be connected in order: GPU 1 to slot 1, GPU 2 to slot 3, GPU 3 to slot 5.
You can download the EDID for MT557D Decca below to avoid having to manually export it:
Tip
On Linux, place the downloaded file to the /etc/X11 folder to match the xorg.conf examples below: sudo mv mt557-edid.txt
/etc/X11/
3x1 portrait video wall
This example 3x1 video wall with portrait displays requires a single GPU. Displays should be connected as shown in the picture above using connectors 1, 2, and 3 as labelled on the GPU.
See below for example configuration using 8 pixel bezel compensation.
