5.19 Concerning 3D image alignment The positional deviation and color shift of 3D images can be checked in a simplified manner by selecting the L&R or T&B display function on the Overlap display in Compare Mode 1. This makes it easy to adjust the camera height and angle and adjust the colors and brightness levels of the cameras used during field operations.

Chapter 5 Specifications When 3D moving images are to be checked, select Dual Link for the input channel. When Dual Link has been set, the combined images can be checked with no delay between the two input signals. NOTE For details on how to set the input channel to Dual Link and the cautions to be observed, refer to section “5.9 Concerning the Dual Link Input Settings.”...
5.20 Concerning checking 3D image using the anaglyph system Three-dimensional (stereoscopic) images can be checked by selecting the Anaglyph display function on the Overlap display in Compare Mode 1. At 3D production sites using actually shot images, this makes it possible to check the sense of depth and other aspects easily without having to carry in a bulky 3D monitor to the location.

Chapter 5 Specifications In the Compare mode, the display of the images in the channel to be compared to CAUTION (Another CH) is delayed by one frame. As an exception to this, when the input channel is set to Dual Link, the images of the channel to be compared to (Another CH) are displayed with no delay.
5.21 Concerning the brightness difference display function The difference in the brightness level between the left and right signals of 3D (stereoscopic) images can be checked by selecting the Y-Difference display function on the Overlap display in Compare Mode 1. Doing this emphasizes the parallax in the 3D images.

Maintenance, etc. For Improved Operability Symptom Setting Location Switching inputs is a lot of trouble. Set DISABLE for channels that will not be used using INPUT_CHANNEL item on the MENU screen. (Refer to Chapter 3: 3.4.2 INPUT CHANNEL) I want to LOCK front panel switches to avoid Hold down the MENU switch.

Chapter 7 Maintenance, etc. Select the Overlap display in Compare Mode 1. The images of two inputs are combined and displayed, enabling the parallax in the left-eye and right-eye images to be checked. I want to check the parallax of 3D image To view difference quantitatively, use marker to see the sources.
If the Unit is not Functioning Normally Symptom Places to check The video image does not display normally Is the Color Space (YPbPr/GBR) setting correct? The front panel switches do not function Check the ON/OFF setting for KEY_LOCK. If KEY_LOCK is ON, “KEY LOCK!!!” will appear on the screen when a switch is operated.
