[0002] The current LED display screen module is mainly composed of a driving circuit, LED light-emitting devices, and an external assembly shell, and needs to be connected to an LED receiving card control system and a power supply. Several modules form a display unit box, each unit box has one or more receiving card control systems and a power supply, and then multiple unit boxes form a large screen. Each receiving card control system needs to be connected to the LED sending card or video processor of the host computer, and then the LED-specific control software is used to set the relevant parameters, and then the set parameters are sent and saved to the receiving card control system of each unit box.
[0003] Since the LED display screen modules of different manufacturers have different dot pitch, module resolution, driver IC, and unit cabinet arrangement, professional engineers are required to set and save the relevant parameters before leaving the factory. In the actual installation and use process, the receiving card control system may fail, and customers may increase or decrease the number and arrangement of LED unit cabinets at any time according to the size of the site. Therefore, professionals are required to debug and resend the unit cabinet configuration parameters and display connection configuration parameters of the display screen every time. Therefore, whether it is to change the arrangement of the display cabinet or the connection method of the cabinet, or to replace the control card due to a fault, professional engineering and technical personnel are required to set the parameters again and send them to the receiving card control system of the unit cabinet. The operation is cumbersome and not conducive to the rapid replacement of the display cabinet or troubleshooting on site. Utility Model Content
