5. COMPACTUTM SOFTWARE
To enable the CompactUTM to communicate with the CompactControl/CompactDesigner
software over a Local Area Network (LAN), the LAN to Driver communication module must be
installed. This module is pre-installed when the CompactUTM is delivered.
5.1 Installing CompactControl/CompactDesigner on the
CompactUTM
First, un-install the LAN to Driver communication (from the Control Panel, select Add/Remove
Programs), since this will no longer be needed if CompactControl/CompactDesigner is to be
installed.
Install CompactControl/CompactDesigner from the CD.
During the installation procedure, when asked for communication options, make sure you select
the Processor cards in this machine option for communication in order to enable
CompactControl/CompactDesigner to communicate with the processor cards.

6. UPDATE GCM DRIVERS
The Geometry Correction Module (GCM) Driver is a Plug-and-Play device driver, and will be
loaded by the system when the Geometry Processor cards are first installed. The driver
contains all the functionality for the system to operate.
Updates to the GCM Drivers will typically be downloaded from our web site but may be issued
on CD-ROM. The following steps will enable you to update the GCM Drivers.
If the updates to the GCM Drivers are to be downloaded from our web site the section entitled Download new drivers from web must be performed. This only needs to be done once for each new driver update.
The section entitled Update drivers that guides you through updating your drivers must be
repeated for each ‘Channel’ on your CompactUTM

7. COMPACTCONTROL/COMPACTDESIGNER SOFTWARE
The CompactControl/CompactDesigner software may be installed either directly from a CDROM or by downloading from the Internet. CompactControl/CompactDesigner provides the user
with full geometry correction, edge control, gamma control and colour control.
For full details of the CompactControl/CompactDesigner software the reader should refer to the
CompactControl/CompactDesigner User Manual.
Note: To install or upgrade software on the CompactUTM, a keyboard, mouse and monitor
must be connected.
7.1 About CompactControl/CompactDesigner
CompactControl/CompactDesigner allows the user to set up a model of the actual theatre
option and to place projectors in the theatre model at the desired physical locations.
CompactControl/CompactDesigner then allows the user to perform geometry adjustment, edge
blending, gamma correction and colour balancing in order to create a continuous picture with
evenly distributed light intensity.
Projection theatre geometry is downloaded to the CompactUTM for easy calibration of
geometry, soft edges and hot spot compensation.
7.2 Installation
The CompactControl/CompactDesigner software is delivered on CD-ROM media, or may be
downloaded from the Internet. You may install the CompactControl/CompactDesigner software
onto a Lap Top (recommended) or directly onto the CompactUTM. See ‘Set-Up Scenarios’ for
full details.
Note: To control the CompactUTM, CompactControl/CompactDesigner version 3 or later is
required.
1. Installation from CD-ROM
Insert the CD. Depending on your computer’s set-up, the installation program may start
automatically.
If it does not, you need to locate the set-up program on the root
directory of the CD:
Double-click the icon to start the set-up procedure.
2. Installation from self-extracting executable
Locate the executable file and double-click its icon to start the set-up procedure. The installation
procedure will now guide you through the set-up process.
17

3D Perception CompactUTM
Revision 6 User Manual
7.3 Software License
The set-up program requires you to enter a valid software license serial number.
The first time you run the set-up program, the serial number will be set to a dummy value:
CV0000-0-0000-00000000-00000000.
Use this default value to calculate the machine ID.
The serial number is based on a unique ID of the target computer. To obtain a full license, you
will need to run the set-up program once to calculate the ID, which must be sent to your
distributor for a license serial number to be generated.
When you have received the serial number for your machine, run the set-up program again.
The serial number must be entered exactly to allow set-up to continue.
The set-up program will not allow you to continue until a valid license serial number has been
entered.
You will now have CompactControl/CompactDesigner loaded on your PC.

8. PLUG AND PLAY DATA IN MONITORS
Plug and Play data for monitors is a data block present in most monitors. The computer (or
image generator) reads the Plug and Play data at start-up, thus allowing the computer to
prevent monitor settings, which are not supported by the monitor, from being set by the user.
Typically, a GCM card will be inserted between a computer and a projector and can be
considered a monitor itself. The standard scenario is that the GCM card reads the Plug and Play
data from the monitor; filters it and then passes it on to the computer. The reason for the filtering
process is to prevent the computer using monitor settings that are supported by the projector
but not supported by the GCM card.
