Why X4E is different
X4E Is Not Just an X4 with a Different Name
X4E keeps the four-Gigabit-Ethernet / 2.6-million-pixel class but changes the engineering feature set. Its published specification uses 2×SDI, DP, HDMI with loop and DVI with loop, supports a 4096×4096 maximum canvas within the loading limit, and provides three-picture display. Colorlight's iSet V3.5 release notes also specifically added T mode for X4e to expand sender and port output area.
That makes X4E a better fit for searches involving X4E specification, X4E T mode, X4E multi-picture, X4E vs X4 and replacement of an existing X4E controller.

| 주요 기능 | X4 | X4E | X4S |
|---|---|---|---|
| Loading capacity | 2.6M | 2.6M | 2.6M |
| LED outputs | 4× GbE | 4× GbE | 4× GbE |
| Max canvas | 4096×2560 | 4096×4096 | 4096×2560 |
| Main inputs | SDI + HDMI + DVI + VGA + CVBS | 2×SDI + DP + HDMI(loop) + DVI(loop) | HDMI + 2×DVI |
| Multi-picture | Not the defining feature | 3-picture display | Not the defining feature |
| T Mode | No specific support found in iSet V3.5 notes | Yes — added in iSet V3.5 | No specific support found in iSet V3.5 notes |
| Best search intent | Legacy mixed-input controller | Engineering / multi-input / taller canvas | Simpler digital-input Xs controller |
The practical difference is not loading capacity: all three are in the 2.6M / four-Ethernet class. X4 emphasizes mixed legacy inputs, X4E adds DP, loop outputs, three-picture display and a taller 4096-pixel canvas, while X4S uses a simpler HDMI + dual-DVI input architecture.
Compatibility
Before Replacing or Buying a Colorlight X4E
Check Screen Resolution
Total pixels are not enough. Confirm width, height and per-port cabinet mapping against the model's canvas and output rules.
Check Hardware Revision
Older Colorlight products can have multiple PCB and firmware branches. Record the exact label before firmware updates or replacement.
Check Receiving Cards
Keep the existing receiving-card model, cabinet file and mapping information before changing the sender/controller.
Software & downloads
Software, Firmware & Manual for Colorlight X4E
Colorlight's current support center separates iSet, LEDVISION (discontinued), LEDUpgrade, documents and firmware. For older X/Z controllers, the correct software and firmware depend on the hardware generation. Do not flash firmware from a similarly named model.
For this model, verify the exact document/firmware branch against the controller label before deployment.
For model-specific documents or firmware guidance, send your controller label and hardware revision with your request.
System workflow
How Colorlight X4E Fits Into an LED Display
1 · Video Source
Feed the supported HDMI/DVI/DP/SDI or legacy source appropriate to this exact model.
2 · Video Processing
Use the model's supported scaling, switching, cropping, PIP or splicing functions—not features borrowed from another X/Z model.
3 · LED Output
Map the Gigabit Ethernet outputs to receiving cards while staying inside total and per-port loading rules.
