32:(5  The number shown here indicates how many watts are applied to the lamp.
Set from 350-500 watts (Mirage 2000
) or 800-1200W (Mirage 5000
) as desired.
Keep in mind that lower power levels produce dimmer images. When in “
3RZHU” or
0D[ %ULJKWQHVV modes, the power level remains constant. When in “,QWHQVLW\” mode,
the power level will change as necessary. Specifying the maximum power level in
3RZHU mode is the same as operating in 0D[ %ULJKWQHVV mode....

Although the Brightness Uniformity control can be used for a single image, it is
particularly useful for setting up and maintaining tiled images as a “seamless” display
wall in which the color cast and light output appear uniform throughout each image
as well as throughout the entire wall.
For best results, avoid “experimenting” with Brightness Uniformity controls—follow
the Achieving Brightness Uniformity procedure provided in 3.9, Using Multiple
Projectors....

frames are displayed with enough speed and viewed with special glasses
synchronized with the left/right frames, the resulting “single” perceived image
appears with much the same depth and perspective we sense in the real world.

a single frame delay, disables resizing and the “Freeze Image” option, and
limits vertical and horizontal position ranges.

left/right IR signals to a receiver in active 3D glasses, causing their left/right
shutters to alternately open and close for active 3D application. Connecting an
emitter to the emitter port on the Stereo3D

you to switch back-and-forth between active and passive systems, if desired.

higher or lower using the projector’s V-Position control.

  “Dark Interval” projector control (note: not always required). For slower
gating technologies, you may also need to artificially increase the amount of
dark time between displayed frames so that shutters have even more time to
open/close and each eye sees the full display intended for it (Figure 3.35B).
Symptoms are more subtle than cross-talk—if the dark interval is too brief for
proper gating, you...
