1. A display system comprising:
a plurality of source apparatuses; and
a plurality of modular display apparatuses connected to the plurality of source apparatuses,
wherein each of the plurality of source apparatuses comprises:
a plurality of cabinets;
an output interface;
a communication interface connected to the plurality of modular display apparatuses; and
at least one processor configured to:
receive, through the communication interface, a notification request signal from the plurality of modular display apparatuses, and
based on the notification request signal, output notification information through the output interface,
wherein the notification request signal corresponds to a control signal transmitted by a control apparatus to the plurality of modular display apparatuses,
wherein the control signal is based on a user command to identify a source apparatus connected to at least one of the plurality of modular display apparatuses,
wherein the output interface comprises a light emitting diode (LED) element,
wherein the at least one processor is further configured to output the notification information by making the LED element emit light, and
wherein the notification information identifies one source apparatus among the plurality of source apparatuses, which is connected to at least one modular display apparatus among the plurality of modular display apparatuses.
