Some 3D settings explained
Dark Time
Banding can be caused if the image is displayed before 
each eye of the 3D switching glasses or ZScreen is 
not fully open. Dark Time allows you to minimize this 
eff ect.
Eye Swap
The outgoing 3D frames are in pairs - the dominant 
frame being presented fi rst. You can determine which 
frame should be the dominant one.
By convention the default setting is 
Left.
Sync Offset
The sync signal from the 3D server will be in phase with 
the frames generated by its graphics card. However, 
to compensate for switching delays in the glasses or 
ZScreen, Sync Offset is used to adjust the sync output 
signal sent to the ZScreen or 3D glasses to minimise 
overlapping (ghosting in the image when viewed 
through the 3D glasses

Notes
  In order to achieve maximum light 
output and a smooth grayscale, 
whilst eliminating ghosting, 
the following procedure is 
recommended:
1. Set Dark Time to a value 
appropriate to the glasses or 
ZScreen, say 1.3 ms or 1.95 ms.
2. Adjust Sync Off set time to eliminate 
ghosting and achieve a smooth 
grayscale.
3.  Repeat steps 1 and 2 until the best 
result is obtained.
