1 Introduction Every effort has been made to ensure the information in this document is accurate and reliable; however, due to constant research the information in this document is subject to change without notice. 1.
2 Operation 2.1 3D The Mirage J Series projector is capable of displaying stereoscopic 3D video sources. The Mirage J Series relies on additional hardware; such as stereo emitters and glasses to complete the display system. Images generated from a stereo 3D-video source consist of a series of images (frames) that alternate quickly between two slightly different view points, corresponding to your left and right eye.
Section 3: Operation CONNECTING THE 3D STEREO SYNC CABLE This GPIO cable provides the means for synchronizing the various components in your 3D system. Your source, projector display output, and emitters or 3D passive filter system can then operate together with precision to minimize cross-talk and color artifacts. Connect as shown below.
Section 3: Operation 2.1.2 Active and Passive Stereo 3D Configurations Typical hardware configurations for active and passive Stereo 3D systems are shown in Figure 1 - Mirage J Series - Typical Stereo 3D Configuration: With Active Glasses and Figure 2 - Mirage J Series - Typical Stereo 3D Configuration: With Passive Glasses.
Section 3: Operation IR Emitter/3D Passive Filter System: In response to an incoming sync signal, the emitter emits L/R infrared signals to a receiver in active 3D shutter glasses, causing the L/R shutters to alternately open and close for active stereo 3D applications. Likewise, a 3D passive filter system placed in front of the lens responds to an incoming sync signal and alternately polarizes the L/R frames viewed with passive glasses for active stereo 3D applications.
Section 3: Operation 3D Mode: Select the mode of your 3D operation. Off: 3D operation is disabled. Auto 3D: Attempts to automatically determine which 3D mode to use based on auxiliary video data, e.g. HDMI info frame. Native 3D: All content is shown at a native frame rate of 96 - 120 Hz input and output. Frame Doubled 3D: 3D Content from a single 48-60Hz signal (24/30Hz per eye) is displayed twice to provide a 3D content to be viewed at 96-120Hz.
Section 3: Operation 3D Sync Output: This option defines whether the 3D Sync is output and controls how it is processed. It is only valid when an optional cable is used to connect stereo 3D signals to the projector via the GPIO port. When there is no 3D signal, Sync Output should be 'Off'. Typically only the last projector in the 3D Stereo cable chain is connected to the emitter and should specify 'To Emitter'. All other projectors should select 'To Next Input' if other projectors are used in the chain.
Section 3: Operation 2.1.3 Example of 3D Multiple Display Setup The following instructions is an example of a multiple display setup or refer to Figure 2-3 Example of 3D Multiple Display Setup. 1. Setup the warp and blends for the projector. 2. If necessary, shift or scale your image to fit the display. 3. Set all projectors to the largest minimum Frame Delay value that the worst case projector in the array can achieve. 4. Enable 3D mode on all projectors.

Appendix B: GPIO This section explains how to use a GPIO link from the projector to external equipment, such as devices for 3D synchronizing. B.1 GPIO Port The GPIO connector located on the input panel provides a flexible method of interfacing a wide range of external I/O devices to the projector. There are 7 GPIO pins available on the 9pin D-Sub GPIO connector, which are configurable via RS-232 commands.The other two pins are reserved for ground and power - see table below for pin identification.
Appendix B: GPIO Configuring the GPIO The GPIO connector can be configured to automate any number of events using the serial command code GIO. Each Pin is defined as either an input or output depending on the desired outcome. Configure the pin as an input if you want the projector to respond to something the device does and as an output if you want the external device to respond to an action taken by the projector.
