TILING
Image tiling allows a single input image to be displayed, spread over multiple screens, with each screen
displaying a fraction of the image. The image is displayed by the m×n array of projectors, where m is the
number of rows (1-3) and n is the number of columns (1-3). This allows the following arrays to be set up:
1x2, 2x1, 1x3, 3x1, 2x2, 2x3, 3x2, 3x3.
Projectors are numbered from left to right (left column = 1), and from top to bottom (Top row = 1).
Examples:
Projector A
Row 1, Col 1
On each projector you must set the following:
 The tiling array size - set the total rows and total columns. This setting will be the same on all the projec-
tors in the array.
 The relative location of the projector within the array - set the row number and column number for each
projector
 Enable Tiling - Tiling can be enabled or disabled without losing any of the above settings.
The Frame Delay Compensation function in the Tiling menu will cause the system to attempt to
NOTE:
automatically correct for frame delay issues which may occur in 3 row tiling. When this checkbox is set, and
using 3 row tiling, the manual frame delay control is disabled.
The features that act differently when Tiling is enabled are:
 The PIP border is disabled
 Cascading menus are turned off
 Menus show only 5 items, with a scroll bar to allow the rest of the menu items to be reached.
 Keystone and Warp are not supported with Tiling enabled
 Projector source switching in the array is not synchronized. Therefore some latency can be seen from when
the commands are issued to each projector, causing switching to not be as seamless when in a tiling config-
uration. When using loop-through via the Twin HDMI Input Card to distribute a signal to the tiling array,
additional latency in the switching can occur during HDCP repeater negotiations with the source player.
When the FUNC+HELP key combination is pressed, the tiling settings will be cleared.
NOTE:
