ports and
NOTE: Use of a single input consisting of both left and right data is not currently
supported.
Sync Output Device:

• IR emitter for controlling the L/R gating (switching) of active glasses
or
• Pi-Cell polarizer for controlling a screen that has a silver polarization-
preserving surface for use with passive glasses
 Custom 3D Sync Output Cable (GPIO) such as available from RealD:
• for routing the projector's output sync to your Sync Output Device—
connect from the projector's GPIO (note: accessed from within the
pedestal—see Section 2) to the emitter or polarizer.
NOTE: See Appendix D for GPIO pinouts and other 3D sync cable details.
 Power supply for your Sync Output Device, typically wired with the custom GPIO
cable.
 Proper 3D configuration defined in the TPC's Custom 3D Control menu. For best
results, use the 3D internal test pattern shown in Figure 3.48.
Setup

Figure 3.44 shows the general hardware configuration currently supported. Use either
an IR emitter to control gating in active glasses, or a polarizing cell and Z-screen
with passive glasses.
NOTES: 1) All configurations require a custom 3D Sync Cable, such as supplied by
RealD, for the GPIO port. 2) A pull-up power supply (not shown) is also required for
the IR emitter or polarizing cell. 3) See page D-2 for cabling details. 4) No internal
convenience outlet in CP2000-S. Refer to separate CP2000-S Addendum for more
information.
