Planning vs show-day use
What WireFlow is for in LED prep — and what still happens on the processor laptop on site.
When to use this
Set expectations with PMs who ask if WireFlow "runs" the LED wall.
WireFlow in prep
- Size the wall and validate processor port math before rental PO goes out.
- Generate wiring and power docs for LED crew and venue.
- Share view-only links so remote techs review before travel.
- Export pixel map for content team.
On site
Processor configuration, brightness, color calibration, and failover still happen in manufacturer software on show day.
WireFlow documentation is the plan — update it when as-built differs (cabinet swapped, row removed).
Tip: Treat the WireFlow project as living documentation, not a replacement for NovaStar/Brompton/etc. control apps.
Common mistakes
- Assuming exported map replaces processor file — always import/verify in target software.
- Not updating wall project after on-site grid change — crew works from stale cabinet count.
