Installation & Setup

Each pair of CrystalEyes eyewear includes two fresh batteries, which are installed at the factory. A compatible stereo computer grapics or video system must be available to check the operation of the eyewear. To activate the eyewear, unfold the temple pieces; to turn off the eyewear, fold the templepieces. When not in use, fold your CrystalEyes eyewear with the temples laying flat across the back of the lenses for convenient storage.

Always fold the eyewear when not in use to maximize the battery life.

Installing the StereoGraphics Emitter

StereoGraphics CrystalEyes requires the use of an infrared emitter in order to synchronize the eyewear in conjunction with the left and right image sequence on screen. The I/R receiver (located in the center of the eyewear) must be in line of sight and in range of the emitter for successful operation of CrystalEyes. Please consult the documentation accompanying your emitter for installation and operation details.

In all cases except for non-stereo-ready PCs, the system or graphics card manufacturer requires specific display settings to enable Stereo3D mode. Please consult the manual or vendor for your specific graphics subsystem to determine the proper settings for Stereo3D mode. For best results in using CrystalEyes with standard workstation displays, set the emitter slightly behind the top edge of the monitor, as shown in Figure 1. In addition:

• For EPRO, ESGI and ELR emitters, make sure the emitter is switched to the ON position. Depending on the emitter range needed, switch the emitter to either the high or low setting.

The ENT emitter will switch on and off automatically whenever a sync signal is presented by the graphics card.

• Users of the EPC-2 must switch the emitter from BYPASS to STEREO MODE and set the emitter range separately.

Prescription Glasses

If you normally wear prescription eyeglasses, place CrystalEyes over them. The eyewear will fit comfortably over most prescription eyeglass frames.
