3G Level B 3D Monitoring Modes
FSI’s passive 3D technology 3D monitors, such as the CM500TD and CM420TD, are equipped with a circular polarizing
lter that allows signals that have been interleaved before reaching the monitor to be viewed in 3D by simply viewing the
content through passive polarized 3D glasses. However, in addition to viewing interleaved sources FSI’s 3D monitors can
also accept two full resolution sources that have been multiplexed over 3Gbps SDI and interleave them for 3D viewing. If
you have such a 3G Level B signal compromised of full resolution left and right eye channels you can select Line by Line
from the 3G Level B Menu selection, which will instruct the monitor to interleave the sources and display them onscreen for
3D viewing through passive 3D glasses. In addition to this Line by Line mode all FSI monitors with 3Gbps SDI inputs will
have the following diagnostic modes for monitoring 3D signals without glasses:
3D Checkerboard: Checkerboard display of both signals with alternating blocks shown from Link A and Link B
of the multiplexed 3Gbps SDI signal. The checkerboard size is adjustable using the Checkerboard Size menu
option.
3D Disparity: This shows an overlay of Link A and Link B with differences between the links highlighted.
Stream 1, Stream 2, PAP, Horizontal Split, and Vertical Split: As with all Level B 3Gbps SDI signals these 3G
Level B viewing modes can be useful for analyzing and comparing Left and Right Eye streams.
*Helpful Tip: When viewing 3D signals on any passive 3D device try to sit as eye level to the center of the screen as possible.
Viewing from the left or right of center should not prevent proper 3D viewing, but passive 3D technology has a very small
vertical position window. If the monitor is viewed from too high or too low of a position the 3D image will not be seen properly.
DVI Selection & DVI Pixel Format
BM & CM series monitors are equipped with a DVI-I Input, which supports both DVI Digital and DVI Analog sources. To
select between DVI-D (Digital) and DVI-A (Analog) simply toggle this control accordingly. Use DVI Pixel Format to select
between Full RGB (0-255), Limited RGB (16-235), or YCbCr modes.
CVBS Setup
Toggle between 0 or 7.5 IRE setup selection for Composite sources.
Component Input
Toggle between Component & Composite Video on units with shared analog inputs.
Component Pixel Format
Component Pixel Format toggles the analog Component video inputs between YPbPr or RGB mode.
Component Setup
Using the Component Setup feature allows you to specify what type of component signal you are sending to the monitor.
Select from YPbPr SMPTE/N10, YPbPr Betacam, YPbPr MII.
PAP Input
Select the secondary input for use with the Picture and Picture function, the primary input is the actively selected input from
the monitor’s keypad.
PAP Mode
Select between Picture In Picture, Picture On Picture, and Picture And Picture for the PIP Function.
SD Enhancement
Applies maximum sharpening and video quality enhancement to SD video sources.
Anamorphic De-Squeeze
Toggles between 1.3, 1.3mag, 2.0, and 2.0mag HD Anamorphic Desqueeze ratios. This is used in conjunction with the
Anamorphic Desqueeze function described in the Function Menu portion of this manual.
