LED wall that fits
Under a 2.4 m ceiling with 1.5 m trim and 0.3 m clearance you get 1 rows of 500 mm tile flown, which is tight; ground-stack or go lower on trim. Along the 16.2 m wall a Absen PL2.5 Plus V2 wall runs 25 x 1 (5000 x 200 px, 195 kg, 4 kW).
| Panel | Pitch | Wall (cols x rows) | Size | Resolution | Weight | Power (max) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Absen KLCOB 0.78 | 0.78 mm | 21 x 1 = 21 | 12.6 x 0.3 m | 16128 x 432 | 95 kg / 208 lb | 1.9 kW, 9 A @ 208 V |
| Absen PL2.5 Plus V2 | 2.5 mm | 25 x 1 = 25 | 12.5 x 0.5 m | 5000 x 200 | 195 kg / 430 lb | 4 kW, 19 A @ 208 V |
| Absen PL3.9 Plus V2 | 3.9 mm | 25 x 1 = 25 | 12.5 x 0.5 m | 3200 x 128 | 195 kg / 430 lb | 3.5 kW, 17 A @ 208 V |
Wall sizing assumes 1.5 m trim to the bottom edge, 0.3 m clearance under the ceiling, and a wall no wider than 80% of the longest wall. Weight and power are tile totals from the panel spec sheet; add processing, rigging, and cable.
Seating estimate
After a 12 x 7 m stage, Pre-Function A holds about 187 theater seats, 76 banquet seats at rounds of 10, or 52 classroom seats. Back row in theater is roughly 9.2 m from the downstage edge; the previz checks whether the bottom of the wall clears the heads in front.
