Viewing 3D Content

3D stereo visualization offers clear and sharp 3D images thanks to 3 chip DLP Imaging
technology. This technique achieves channel separation using active shutter glasses.
•Active shutter glasses turn on and off in rapid succession and stop light reaching your
eyes. The glasses are synced using a RF emitter connected to the projector.
•When an image is destined for the left eye, the right lens of the glasses goes dark
preventing any of the image for your left eye from reaching the right eye. The left lens
is completely open.
•The process repeats very quickly (up to 120 times per second) for each eye.
•The human brain combines the two images and creates the illusion of 3D.
Important:
viewing 3D content.
Your SIRIO projector is capable of displaying 3D Images of exceptional high quality; to
ensure maximum enjoyment and trouble free viewing we recommend the following
guidelines.
•You will need a Blu-ray player or equivalent that is capable of playing 3D
content and is HDMI compliant plus of course a copy of a film that has
released on Blu-ray in 3D. Only films with the 3D logo are compatible.
•Ensure your player has the latest software installed.
•If your Blu-ray Player has dual HDMI outputs, we would recommend direct
connection to the projector from one of the HDMI connections and the second HDMI
output to the input of an appropriate AV receiver/processor for audio.
•If you are routing all of your HDMI sources through an AV receiver/processor the
product must be 3D compatible and HDMI compliant. Ensure your equipment has the
latest firmware installed (refer to the manufacturer for further information).
•Other 3D content providers are available such as Satellite Broadcasters, Cable
providers, VOD and Streaming services, gaming consoles such as PlayStation 3. Details
of the 3D service provided can be obtained by contacting your local/regional
operators.
To watch 3D Content via Blu-ray
•Switch on the SIRIO and all other relevant products such as Blu-ray player and AV
receiver and ensure the correct inputs have been selected.
•Insert your 3D Blu-ray disc and press play, follow the on-screen menus.
Note: Some discs contain both the 3D and 2D versions of the film, ensure you select
the correct one.
•Switch on your 3D glasses. Refer to the instructions supplied with the glasses to
ensure correct operation.
•The projector will automatically detect the 3D signal and you will be prompted to
wear your glasses via the OSD.
