    ◦ Memories ◦ 3D Controls (3D Mode and Input Formats) Operation The Lumis 3D-S projector has two IR receivers, one on the front and one on the back of the unit. The operative range of the remote control is approximately 10 m (33 ft.). Make sure that there is nothing obstructing the infrared beam between the remote control and the IR receiver you are pointing to.

  • Page 12 3D IR Emitter The 3D infrared emitter is designed to be placed near the projector and aimed at the screen. It receives the 3D sync signal from the projector and emits infrared pulses that bounce off the screen and the walls to reach the 3D glasses infrared receiver. Note: The emitter emits sync pulses only when the projector displays 3D content.
