Martin VC-Grid 60 Creative 4x4 LED Video Tile 4 Pack vs Martin Companion firmware upload cable
The VC-Grid 60 Creative is a modular LED video display tile system for large-scale visual installations, while the Companion Cable is a firmware upload tool for Martin lighting fixtures—they serve entirely different purposes. The LED tiles suit designers building video walls and creative installations; the cable suits technicians maintaining Martin lighting equipment.
No sales tax on orders shipped outside California — total cost beats national retailers that charge sales tax in nearly every state.

Frequently asked questions
Are these products compatible with each other?
No. The VC-Grid 60 Creative is a standalone LED video tile system with its own control protocols (DMX and P3). The Companion Cable is designed exclusively for uploading firmware to Martin lighting fixtures, not video tiles.
Can the VC-Grid 60 Creative be used for permanent installations?
Yes. The ultra-lightweight design, compact footprint, and daisy-chain capability make it suitable for stage designs, architectural installations, and creative ceilings. The 16-bit color processing and pixel-level calibration support consistent long-term performance.
What do I need to use the Companion Cable?
You need a computer with USB connectivity, Martin Companion software, and compatible Martin lighting fixtures (MAC, ERA, ELP, RUSH, or Exterior series). The cable includes both USB Type-C and Type-A adapters, so no additional hardware is required.
How many VC-Grid 60 tiles can I connect in one system?
You can daisy-chain up to 45 modules per single power/data cable run, allowing unlimited configurations across multiple cable runs for large-scale installations.
