SETTINGS
Use the options in the Simulation 3D
menu to make the timing adjustments
necessary for realistic simulation and
3D images.
NOTE: For complete 3D application
notes, refer to the separate Using 3D
in Mirage manual provided with the
Mirage projector.
FRAME DELAY MONITOR —
results, the value should remain fairly
constant, indicating that timing of
input and output frames is locked; the Frame Delay Monitor value should stay within
5-10 lines or so of the Frame Delay setting. If a frame is lost or "dropped", this value
will cycle to maximum and jump to minimum and then repeat, indicating that the
frame input is no longer equal to the output. If the signal is not locked, the values will
change erratically; you can adjust the Frame delay to attempt a correction.
NOTE: See separate Using 3D in Mirage manual provided for more information.
Set the number of lines delayed between the input signal and its
FRAME DELAY —
appearance on screen, keeping in mind that projector processing always adds one
frame of delay to the frame delay setting. For applications such as simulation, where
the feeling of "real time" image response is a priority, a minimum setting is usually
preferable. For projectors capable of 3D (stereographic) applications where alternating
left-right frames must be synchronized with the corresponding L/R shutters in 3D
glasses, a total frame delay setting of two (or multiple of two) may be more useful. If
set too high or low, frame locking will not be possible—most sources require
approximately 50 lines of delay to ensure frame locking.
NOTE: See separate Using 3D in Mirage manual provided for more information.
Adjust Dark Interval to artificially increase the amount of dark
DARK INTERVAL —
time between displayed frames for stereographic 3D images. Higher settings provide
more time for shutters in 3D glasses to open/close, ensuring that each eye sees the full
display intended for it. Symptoms of cross talk and/or color artifacts can indicate need
for adjustment. The Dark Interval range of adjustment depends on the vertical
frequency of your source—the higher the frequency, the smaller the range.
NOTE: See separate Using 3D in Mirage manual provided for more information.
This option defines 1) whether or not the sync will be frame
3D SYNC OUTPUT —
doubled on the output, and 2) whether or not the 3D frames must be inverted, i.e.
swapped left-with-right. The correct setting ensures that the projector's 3D display of
left/right frames is synchronized with the rest of the 3D system components so that the
intended eye sees the left/right image data. Select the option corresponding to your 3D
source connections and timing, and use only if the Mirage 3D Stereo Sync Cable is
connected between the projector's GPIO port and a server. Only the last projector in
the chain that is connected to the emitter will choose one of the emitter choices; all
