Connect the FS-AP-01 to a USB Keyboard and Mouse

Press OK to bring the up the Fusion Menu

Click Settings

      If you can't get a connection (Fusion says offline), please try to connect the player via your mobile phone wifi hotspot.
      

Click Date/Time Settings
      Automatic date & time = Enable
      Automatic time zone = Disable
      Select time zone = as per your time zone


Click Custom Screen Orientation
Make sure it is set to Default


Ensure Automatic updates is Enabled
Ensure Automatic start is Enabled


Advanced (Screen Size)
Set Custom Screen Resolution to Enable


Then configure Width, Height, Offset top and Offset Left as follow


Now you can connect the screen to the Aurora 84" Portrait LED Screen (LCG192025HB/LCG192025HBi)
Image should look flush on the screen


Issue: Why is there a black area above and below the artwork?
The LED Screen size is 384x768 pixels (aspect ratio 1:2)
Normally designers would design a portrait artwork as 1080x1920 (portrait 1080p) (aspect ratio 9:16)
By default, a playlist in Fusion is set to Fit, in order for a 9:16 artwork to occupy an entire 1:2 aspect ratio space, the playlist’s Fit need to be set to “Stretch”
Please kindly do so when creating future playlist, otherwise if the Fit is left on default “Fit” setting, the screen would have a black space above and below the artwork.
It’s worth noting that setting the Fit to “Stretch” doesn’t alter the playlist behaviour on a 1080p screen in portrait.. So this shouldn’t be a concern.
