Asynchronous Frame Sequential - Barco F50 User Manual

12. Stereoscopic multichannel setup

12.5 Asynchronous frame sequential

About
The projector is capable of displaying asynchronous frame sequential 3D. For this mode, a lot of synchronization signals must be
used. This is the most complex 3D setup the F50 can handle.
To achieve this setup, each IG needs to send a separate source 3D sync to each projector. The first projector needs a signal to lock
its output to; this is usually the same as the source input on the first projector. The first projector sends its display sync to the second
projector which uses this as its display 3D sync. A typical setup is shown in
IR

As mentioned previously, motion artifacts will occur when the signals are asynchronous. This is also indicated in the Synchronization
status menu, where the status of the 3D Display sync on projector 2 will show Drifting, Frame locked meaning that the display
sync signal is asynchronous with the input source.
The table below shows the settings for asynchronous side-by-side 3D. These settings will make the first projector generate 3D
display L/R sync from its source and output it on the SYNC 1 connector and the second projector to accept and use this on its SYNC
1 connector and pass it along to the next projector in the sync chain on its SYNC 2 connector.
