Does the Rondo series provide external automation control?

3D content is not being displayed.

No.

• If using INT (internal) EDID mode, all connected displays must be able to display 3D content. If only one of the connected displays is not 3D-capable, then none of the displays will show 3D content.

• To pass 3D content when not all displays support 3D, connect a 3D display to Output 1, then use the “learn EDID” procedure.
