3D STEREO SYNC DELAY — This value is set when the L/R frames begin and by

default, is automatically calculated based on signal timing; it defines the best

reference point for synchronizing the display with your glasses. Proper adjustment of

this delay should eliminate cross talk and odd colors caused by timing differences

between the glasses and the projected display. Slide bar values indicate the number of

lines that are delayed. NOTE: See Help menu to view the formula used to calculate

this value.

FRAME LOCK ENABLE — This option allows the projector to control the output frame

timing based on the input signal. The locked option forces (if possible) the output

image to be phase locked to the input frames. Rate Matched means that the output

runs at close to the input frequency but isn’t locked to it so the output will drift in

phase relative to the output. Free Run forces the output to run at a 60Hz frame rate.

NOTE: 1) See separate Using 3D in Mirage

manual provided for additional

information.

3D SOURCE — When using a Mirage projector with HD resolution, a checkbox option

called 3D Source will be added to the bottom of the Simulation 3D menu. This

checkbox must be set by the user for all new 3D sources, and cleared for all new non-

3D sources (default setting is checked). Once set, this value will be maintained for

that source for all future uses. This option is also available under the Advanced Image

Settings menu.

SETTINGS

Use the options in the Simulation

3D menu to make the timing

adjustments necessary for realistic

simulation and 3D images.

NOTES: 1) Available in Matrix

projectors only.

FRAME DELAY MONITOR —For best

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.

FRAME DELAY — Set the number of lines delayed between the input signal and its

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.
