Martin VC-Grid 15 Creative 16x16 LED Video Tile 4 Pack
Description
Martin VC-Grid 15 Creative 16x16 LED Video Tile 4 Pack
The VC-Grid 15 is a compact, modular LED video tile measuring 240 x 240 mm that delivers exceptional brightness and pixel-level control for professional stage productions. Its small footprint and unified power/data connector make it straightforward to integrate into stage designs, backdrops, and creative environments. This four-pack bundle provides the foundation for building expansive, fully customizable LED video surfaces with minimal cabling complexity—ideal for touring rigs and permanent installation venues.
Display Performance & Brightness
Each tile produces 5000 nits of brightness in calibrated mode with a luminous output of 15000 lumens per square meter, ensuring visibility in lit stages and consistent color reproduction across the entire display. The 16-bit per color image processing combined with pixel-level brightness and color calibration delivers smooth gradations and matched output between tiles, critical for seamless multi-unit configurations that hold their look under stage lighting.
Control & Integration
The VC-Grid 15 supports both Martin P3 (via Martin P3 PowerPort) and DMX control protocols, with the ability to toggle between modes in real time via P3 Switch channel for maximum flexibility during live shows. A single combined power/data input connector and daisy-chain thru port minimize cable runs and simplify addressing, with support for up to 4 modules per daisy-chain and compatibility with VC-Strip 15 for hybrid designs that adapt to your stage layout.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many LED pixels are in each tile and what is the resolution?
Each VC-Grid 15 tile contains 256 individually controllable pixels arranged in a 16x16 LED array with a 15 mm pixel pitch. Four tiles can be daisy-chained together to create larger surfaces while maintaining pixel-level mapping and effects control.
What control protocols does the VC-Grid 15 support?
The tiles support both Martin P3 and DMX control, with real-time protocol switching via the P3 Switch channel. A single combined power/data connector and daisy-chain thru port simplify wiring, with support for up to 4 modules per daisy-chain.
How bright are these tiles and will they work in lit environments?
Each tile produces 5000 nits brightness in calibrated mode and 15000 lumens per square meter, ensuring excellent visibility in lit environments and consistent color reproduction. 16-bit per-color processing and pixel-level brightness calibration ensure matched output between all tiles in the set.
What power requirements and connectors does the VC-Grid 15 use?
The VC-Grid 15 requires 48 VDC (±4%) input via 4-pin Molex connectors, with a maximum power consumption of 50 watts per tile. Heat dissipation is 205 BTU/hr at peak (full white) and 70 BTU/hr typical for video content.
What are the physical dimensions and how does it integrate into installations?
Each tile measures 240 x 240 mm, enabling compact integration into custom set pieces, architectural elements, and stage designs. The modular design allows four tiles to be combined into larger video surfaces while the unified connectors minimize cabling complexity.
