How to Use B.L.I.N.K.
Getting Started
Choose a Mode — select Simple or Complex on the welcome page
Select a Panel Type — choose your LED panel from the dropdown
Enter Dimensions — input panels wide/high or target wall size
Configure Power — set voltage, breaker, and phase settings
Configure Data — select processor, frame rate, and bit depth
Review Results — check the calculated specifications
SOCA circuit grouping, phase balancing, and shared distro across screens
Manual circuit, SOCA, and data port assignment
Bumper bar management — auto + manual positioning
Ground stack, hanging, and floor configurations
Tabs: Complex | Combined, Cable, Canvas
Screen Tabs
Multiple Screens — create and manage multiple LED walls in one project
Add Screen (+) — click the + button to add a new screen
Switch Screens — click on any screen tab to switch between screens
Reorder — drag a tab sideways to move it. On desktop the drag starts once you move a little, so a plain click still just switches screens; on a phone, press and hold a tab first so the strip stays scrollable
Tab order is saved with the project and is the order screens appear in every export
Edit Screen — click the pencil icon to rename and set primary/secondary panel colors
Duplicate Screen — copy a screen and all its settings from the edit dialog
Reset Screen — the ↻ button in the edit dialog returns the screen to defaults
Delete Screen — click the X to remove a screen (cannot delete last screen)
Header & Menu
The header holds Home, Recents, Quick Save, Export, and the Menu.
Recents — reopen a recent project; loaded files keep their saved file name
Quick Save — save over the current project without a dialog
Export — opens the export menu (PDF, Canvas, Test Pattern, Gear List)
Menu → Configuration — New, Recent, Export, Save, Save As, Load, Send to Jared
New — starts a fresh project, back to a single blank screen. It asks first, because unsaved changes are lost
Load — opens a file picker so you can browse to the project, rather than only the downloads folder
Menu → Inventory — Gear Code Mapping, to map gear to your own inventory codes
Menu → Power — Distro Wiring, to set which leg (X / Y / Z) each SOCA circuit is wired to
Install — installs B.L.I.N.K. as an app when your browser supports it
Release Notes — What’s New, from the welcome page footer; also shown once per update

Dimensions
Panels mode — enter number of panels wide and high
Size mode — enter desired wall width and height (auto-calculates panels)
Pixels mode — enter target pixel width and height (auto-calculates panels)
Units — toggle between Imperial (ft/lbs) and Metric (m/kg)
Aspect Ratio Lock — None, 16:9, 4:3, or Custom ratio
Power
Voltage — default 208V, or set custom voltage
Breaker — default 20A, or set custom breaker
Phase — 1-phase or 3-phase
Power Basis — Max (recommended) or Average
Derate — apply the NEC 80% continuous-load derate to circuit capacity
Max/Circuit — override max panels per circuit (leave blank for auto)
Circuits & SOCA
Controls above the Power layout. A SOCA groups circuits onto one multi-circuit cable run.
SOCA Outlines — draw a border around the panels each SOCA feeds
SOCA Label — show the SOCA name across its panels
SOCA Naming — number the SOCAs (123) or letter them (ABC)
Phase Balance — even the load across legs; the legend below the layout shows the result
Color by Leg — color panels by their phase leg instead of by circuit
Share Distro — chain screens onto one distro so legs balance across the whole group
Circuit table — lists each SOCA, its circuits, and their loads below the layout
Assign Circuit # and Assign SOCA # — select panels in the Power layout and use the panel menu to set circuit and SOCA numbers by hand. A manual assignment always wins; Share Distro only auto-fills numbers you have not claimed. Cable and gear counts follow your assignments.
Distro Wiring (Menu → Power) — type the leg(s) each SOCA circuit is wired to. 120 V circuits sit on one leg, 208 V circuits bridge two. Blank cells use the standard rotation.
Max/Data — override max panels per data line (leave blank for auto)
Frame Rate — 24, 25, 30, 50, 60 Hz
Bit Depth — 8, 10, 12-bit
Max/Data — override max panels per data line (leave blank for auto)
Data Direction — Top→Bottom, Bottom→Top, All from Top, All from Bottom
Arrows — show/hide data routing arrows
Flip — flip direction of arrows
Data Redundancy — doubles ports needed
Processor Redundancy — doubles processor count
Connection Mode (MX40 Pro) — Direct: 20 outputs off the processor (10 with redundancy). Indirect: CVT-10 Pro boxes, 10 outputs each (5 with redundancy), up to 4 CVT boxes per processor. Each screen keeps its own mode.
Data Lines & Ports
Controls above the Data layout.
View — Front View or Rear View (mirrors the routing for cabling from behind)
Arrows / Flip — show routing arrows, or flip their direction
Data Labels — number each data line on the panels
Data Line Map — table below the layout with Line, Panel, Unit, and Port columns
Consistent numbering — a line is named by the processor port it lands on, and the data layout, cable diagram, and gear list all call it the same thing
Assign Data Port — select panels and use the panel menu to set the processor, distribution box, and port for a line. Processor and box accept a letter or a number, and Auto leaves the app to pick. The app warns before taking a port another line already holds, and manual assignments drive the gear list counts.
With Data Redundancy on, the map also shows each line’s backup destination, and those loop-back ports appear in the PDF.
Structure
Hanging — wall is flown/rigged from above
Ground Stack — wall on ground with base plates, outriggers, bracing
Floor — floor panel configuration
Bumpers — toggle on/off, 4-way option (CB5 only)
Auto mode — bumpers auto-distribute across wall width
Manual mode — drag bumpers to reposition, delete bumpers, or swap between 1w or 2w bumpers
Desktop: right-click bumpers for options
Mobile: tap to select, tap again for options, hold and drag to move
Layout Views
In Complex mode, the layouts stack below the specs:
Standard — panel grid with checkerboard coloring; delete/restore panels and assign circuits, SOCAs, or data lines
Power — color-coded circuit distribution with SOCA outlines, labels, phase balance, and the circuit table
Data — routing paths with line numbers, direction arrows, front/rear view, and the data line map
Structure — bumper positions, pickup weights, ground support hardware, and the red centre-of-wall mark
Select Mode — panel selection is off until you turn Select Mode on above the layout. This keeps scrolling and panning from selecting panels by accident, and it applies to the Standard, Power, Data, and Combined layouts. Bumpers have their own Select Mode in Structure.
Use the ▼ button on a layout title to collapse or expand it. Undo and Redo sit in the Standard and Structure layout headers, and the share button exports that one layout as a single-page PDF.
Combined View
View multiple screens together in a unified interface.
Select which screens to include
Zoom — 50%–200% to see detail or overview
Manual Adjust — drag screens to custom positions
Select Mode — turn it on before selecting panels, same as the Complex layouts
Click panels to select across screens; Ctrl+click for multi-select; drag a box to select a region
Right-click selected panels to assign circuits, SOCAs, or data ports, or to reset that layout
Per-screen processor pickers — set processor and distribution box per screen, or apply one to all
Share Distro and Phase Balance — balance legs across every selected screen at once
Combined specs across all selected screens, including SOCA and data line counts per screen
Combined Power, Data, Structure, and Cable layout views
Combined Cable list, with editable System and Spares quantities
Per-screen tables — the SOCA circuit table, data line map, and structure pickup weights appear under their combined layout, one block per screen, packed several screens across and carried into the PDF
Projects saved before the combined view existed open with nothing selected — pick your screens to build the arrangement.
Cable Tab
Cabling calculations and cable layout diagram.
Switch to the Cable tab in the bottom nav
General — Wall to Floor distance, Cable Pick height, Cable Drop position (Behind, SR, SL)
Power — Distro to Drop distance, Power In position (Top, Bottom)
Data — Proc to Drop, Server to Proc distances, Dist Box on-wall toggle with position controls
Cable Diagram — front-view layout showing cable routing from wall to processor/distro
Cable List — equipment and cable counts organized by category
Gear List
The Cable tab lists gear per screen, organized by category — equipment, rigging, and cabling. Each screen’s box carries its own share button that exports that screen’s gear list as a PDF.
The Combined view’s gear list adds two editable bands that cover every selected screen:
System — Signal Cables (SDI by length, server fiber, HDMI) and Utility (UG 10'/25'/50', UG Twofers, Power Bars)
Spares — Panels & Hardware (per panel type, shackles, cheeseyes), Data Cables (cross jumpers, Cat5 couplers, Cat6 by length), and Power Cables (Soca splays, Soca by length, True1, True1 twofers)
Editing quantities — every row is a number box. Leave it blank to use the auto-calculated quantity shown as the placeholder, or type a number to override it. Spares default to 10% for panels and 40% for cables and rigging. A row still shows at zero, so a line you zeroed can be put back.
Spare rows cover every stocked length rather than only the ones this rig runs, so you can spare a length the job does not otherwise use — Cat6 at 10', 25', 50', 75', 100', 200', and 300', and Soca at 25', 50', 75', and 100'. These are the lengths stocked for spares, which are deliberately not the same as the lengths real cable runs are rounded up to. Your overrides save with the project and flow through to the PDF and every gear export.
Canvas View
Position multiple screens visually on a virtual canvas.
Drag screens — tap and drag to reposition on canvas
X/Y Pos — set exact pixel positions
Fine (px) — set arrow key increment for precise adjustments
Snap — toggle snapping to other screens and canvas edges
Zoom — +/- buttons, type a %, or Ctrl+Scroll (desktop)
Pan — drag empty space when zoomed in
Screens table — a row per screen with name, colors, panel type, tile resolution, columns, rows, offset X/Y, overlays, and an Active toggle to show or hide it
Overlays — per-screen X/Y coordinates, pixel dimensions, and crosshair
Header/Footer — add a title block band to the canvas; set position (header or footer) and band height
Export — PNG, JPEG, or Resolume XML with custom filename; export the whole canvas or each screen at native resolution
Resolume file — import in Resolume’s advanced output section to create input and output screens based on canvas positions
Add Canvas — add more than one canvas if your screens don’t all fit on one canvas
Reorder Canvases — drag canvas tabs the same way as screen tabs
Exports
PDF Report — report with basic specs, shown in a preview before you export
Canvas — PNG or JPEG of the whole canvas, or each screen at its native resolution
Gear List — text file, or Send to Jared for an emailed breakdown by screen
Resolume XML — Arena 7 compatible LED mapping
Save/Load — .blinkled, .blinkrast, .blinktp files with full project state
PDF Report — multi-page report with specs, layouts, and gear list per screen; toggle which sections are included
Canvas — PNG or JPEG of the whole canvas, each screen at native resolution, outline, title block, or Resolume XML
Test Pattern — PNG image or MP4 video
Gear List — text file, or Send to Jared for an emailed breakdown by screen
Export All — every format at once, as a foldered zip
Per-view export — the share button on any layout, specs, or gear box exports just that view as a one-page PDF
Save/Load — .blinkled, .blinkrast, .blinktp files with full project state
PDF preview — the left panel chooses which sections are included, then Page Size (A4 or Letter), Orientation (Portrait or Landscape), SOCA Outlines, SOCA Label, and a logo upload. Eco Friendly and Greyscale are print-saving colour modes. The preview is the PDF — what you see is exactly what exports.
Export All — builds a zip with a folder per view. Each layout comes out as a PDF page per screen (specs, power, data, structure, cable), with a second unlabelled copy of the data layout, plus combined pages across the selection, the gear list as both PDF and text, the canvas and per-screen screens images, the title block, resolume XML, any test pattern, and the full report at the top level. Every layout page is the same page the full report would have contained.
Choosing where to save — exports open a Save dialog so you can pick the folder, instead of dropping straight into Downloads. The dialog opens in the folder your project came from, and otherwise remembers wherever you saved last, even between sessions. Cancelling the dialog cancels the export before any work is done. Browsers without this feature simply download as before.
On mobile, exports use the native share sheet.
Per-View PDF Export
Every layout, the specs, and the gear list carry a small share button in the top-right of their box. Tap it for a one-page PDF of just that view, without opening the full report.
Screen views — Standard, Power, Data, Structure, and Cabling export for the screen you are currently on
Gear List — each screen’s gear box has its own button, and exports that screen rather than the one you are on
Combined views — Combined Standard, Power, Data, Structure, Cabling, Specs, and Gear List cover every selected screen, and need at least two screens selected
Matches the full report — the page you get is the page the full PDF report would have contained for that view
Filename — config name, screen name, view name, and date
Eco Friendly and Greyscale apply to the full report only. On mobile the file goes to the native share sheet.
