How to watch 3D content on your monitor

Your monitor supports playing three-dimensional (3D) content transferred through DVI-D Dual
Link cable. Yet you need to have the appropriate hardware equipment and software programs
that are compatible with 3D playback.
3D content can be transferred to XL2420TX through HDMI cable (version 1.3 or above) as well.
Not all menu options are available for 3D playback.

Playing 3D content
Follow the instruction manuals of your 3D accessories to install the hardware and the software.
If the 3D glasses are properly connected and IR signal is detected, the IR emitter indicator on
the bottom right of the monitor and on the IR emitter module (purchased separately for
XL2420T) will light up.
To improve the performance of 3D glasses, you can do the following:
• On XL2420TX, check if there are any obstacles in front of the IR sensor located at the front
top of the monitor that keep the sensor from receiving signals from the 3D glasses.
