The bayonet mount is fitted with a spring probe contact (pogo) pin array that detects standard Barco FLD/FLD+ lenses. When an
FLD/FLD+ lens is installed, the projector detects this and o pens the mechanical lens shutter and moves the DMD to the ’On’ position.
The reverse happens when a lens is removed.
Non standard or passive lenses, such as the EN33, the HR95 and 3rd party lenses, do not facilitate automatic lens monitoring. In
these instances, Lens Monitoring must be disabled and the lens s hutter manually opened and closed.
Disabling the Lens Monitor function can be done:
•ViatheOSD,Main menu — Settings — Service — Lens Monitor
•Via the RS-232 control interface
•Via the Barco GP3 Lens Monitoring app, available for download from the product w ebsite
You must have Power or Service User rights to enable or disable lens monitoring.
Once Lens Monitoring is disabled, use the SHUTTER function on the wireless remote control, local key pad or via your RS-232
control interface to manually open and close the lens shutter.

5. Installation
The following guidelines can help you determine the best physical location for the projector.
•The ambient air temper ature of the room or enclosure should not be greater than 40 °C (at 1500 m altitude), and there must be
sufficient ventilation area around the projector. See section "Installation c onditions", page 21 for more detailed information.
•Use the throw r atio of the installed lens as a guideline for determ ining the projector’s physical distance from the s creen. See
"Throw distance", page 25 for more information.
•Ensure that the source signal interface and cable lengths are matched to the installation. In general:
- 3G-SDI a re long-haul interfaces and suitable for bespok e installations using relatively long cables
- DP, HDMI, DVI and VG A are short-haul interfaces using pre-assem bled cables with limited cable lengths. Using extended
cable lengths may result in reduced image quality as well as loss of control information such as EDID (Extended Display
Information Data).
•Wherever possible, the projector lens surface sh ould be positioned so that it is perfectly perpendicular to
screen. Offset (lens shift), rather than physical angling, should be used primarily to c orrect any off-center positioning.
•Installing the projector on a tilt is not recommended as it may impact negatively on lamp and image performance. If it is absolutely necessary to install the projector on an angle, ensure that it is w ithin the guidelines illustrated in image 5-3

Suggested procedure
1. P lace the projector on a pedestal or similar, sturdy object. Make sure that all three projector feet are in contact with the surface
of the installation area.
2. A djust the projector legs so that so that the projector is completely level. To do this, turn the collar on each foot clockwise or

3. In an ideal installation, the projector lens surface is centered with and parallel to the screen. This orientation helps to ensure
optimized lens performance with minimal offset. If this position is not poss ible (such as when the projector is significantly higher
than the center of the screen), it is better to rely on offset (lens shift) rather than extra tilt. If tilt is required, mak e sure that it does
not exceed 20 degrees on the s ide-to-side axis, as illustrated in image 5-3.

n 15 mm into the projector chassis.
5.7Throw distance
Calculate the installation throw distance
Throw is the distance (D) measured from your projector lens to the screen. To calculate the throw distance for an installation, you
will need two pieces of data: the selected lens throw ratio (L) and the horizontal width (W) of the screen. For example, if the screen
width (W) is 2.4 m eters and the projector lens has a
Calculation: 2.4 x 0.99 = 2.38
The following graphs illustrate the image size (W) and projection distance (D) for each of the projector lenses.
Tolerances are typically +/- 5% due to optical (lens) variation.
throw ratio (L) of 0.99:1, then the throw distance (D) will be 2.38 meters.
Adjusting the horizontal and vertical position of the i mage
Ideally in any ins tallation the projector is po sitioned totally perpendicular to the screen to ensure a wholly rectangular image. However, physical limitations mean th
One way to correct this is by adjusting, or shifting, the vertical or horizontal position of the image.
The amount of available vertical or horizontal offset is dependent on what type of lens is installed in the projector and the projector
resolution, see image 5-9 which illustrates the vertical offset values of an image. The same theory applies to horizontal shift. The
middle of the image is the optical a xis (0%), i.e. no shift. 100% shift equals half of t he image height.

5.10 Scheimpflug (Boresight) adjustment
What is Scheimpflug?
The lens holder has to be adjusted s o that the “sharp focus plane” of the projected image falls toge
(Fp1→Fp2). This is achieved by changing the distance between the DMD plane and the lens plane (Lp1→Lp2). The closer the lens
plane comes to the DMD plane the further the sharp focus plane will be. It can occur that you won’t be able to get a complete focused
image on the screen due to a t ilt (or swing) of the lens plane with respect to the DMD plane. Th
law. To solve this the lens plane must be placed parallel with the DMD plane. This can be achieved by turning the lens holder to
remove the tilt (or swing) between lens plane and DMD plane (Lp3→Lp4).

Scheimpflug principle
The "plane of sharp focus" can be changed so that any plane can be brought into sharp focus. W hen the DMD plane
and lens plane are parallel, the plane of sharp focus will also be parallel to these two planes. If, however, the lens
plane is tilted with r espect to the DMD plane, the plane of sharp focus will also be tilted according to geometrical and
optical properties. The DMD plane, the principal lens plane and the sharp focus plane will intersect in a line be low the

Scheimpflug adjustment points
Scheimpflug adjustment points are located on the lens mount. The F35 has three (3) set screws and three (3) adjustment screws.
When to apply Scheimpflug?
Scheimpflug correction procedures may only be carried out by suitably trained and experienced tech nicians.
A Scheimpflug correction should only be applied w h en the overall focus of the projected image is not equally sharp (for example, if the
projector is NOT in parallel with the screen or as a result of a previously misaligned Scheimpfl ug). Be aware that the consequence of
applying Scheim pflug correction upon a screen not in parallel with the projector is that the projected image differs from the rectangle
shaped image. In other words “distortion” of the projected image occurs. Masking will be required to solve the distortion.

There is a sm all po ssibility that these lenses can interfere with the shutter function. This can occur when
the adjustment screws for the scheimpflug are adjusted to the end positions. Therefore, a fter scheimpflug
adjustment, always verify normal shutter operation.
If normal operation is not obtained, readjust the scheimpflug, and avoid adjusting to the end position of the
adjustment screws.

6.8Connect to a source
CAUTION: The projector must be powered off before connecting or disconnecting any signal or control cables
to the connector panel.
General
Choice of connectivity depends on the installation requirements as well as the sources connected. Generally, digital interfaces are
preferred over analog. Multiple signals can be connected in parallel to allow for a selection of sources to be viewed in sequence.
To connect to a video or data source, simply plug the r equired interface in to the IO panel. O nce a source is connected, plug the
projector mains power cord in and use select the source using the keypad or wireless remote control.
Current (active) source information is displayed on the LCD panel and in the OSD Status menu, Main Menu — Status.
Using poor qu ality or excessively long cables can distort signal qu ality. For best results always take cab le
quality and cable length limitations into consideration when setting up the installation.
Connect a video source
For best quality video, connect a digital video s ource using the HDMI 1.3a interface. The HDM I input is HDCP copy protection
compliant. The projector can support cable lengths of up to 20 metres, dependant on the quality of cable used.
Connect a computer source
The projector may be connected to up to six computer sources simultaneously, using the HDMI (O), DVI-D (J) or VGA (K) interfaces.
The digital interfaces (DVI/HDMI) will yield a projected image with very low noise. Both DVI and HDMI are HDCP com pliant with
sources up to 1920x1200@ 60 Hz (single link source up to 165 Mhz).
Additional functionality may be achieved using the X -PORT modules.

To apply a custom profile, go to the Profiles menu and select Recall settings and then input the relevant number (1 - 9) when
prompted in the popup window.
8.4Adjust lamp power
Adjust lamp power settings
Main M enu — Installation — Lamp
Running the projector lamps at different power levels will alter the brightness of the image on the screen. Higher levels give higher
brightness and shorter lamp life time. Lower levels save energy, extend lifetime and reduce brightness.
In ECO mode (Main Menu — Installation — Lamp — ECO mode) both lamps are dimmed to the minimum level (250 W) and fan
speed is reduced to the lowest possible level. Running the lamps in this mode will increase lam p lifetime from 2000 hours to 2500
hours (approximately). ECO mode is disabled by de fault.
The Lamp mode sub menu (Main Menu — Installation — Lam p — Lamp mode) enables users to apply one of the following power
modes:
•Single 1 — only lamp 1 is on
•Single 2 — only lamp 2 is on
•Dual — both lamps are on
•Autoswitch
Alternatively, users can set a specific value to each of the lamps, Main Menu — Installation — Lamp — Lamp 1 Powe r or Main Menu— Installation — Lamp — Lamp 2 Power. Permiss ible range is 250 W to 3 0 0 W; each step is equal to 5 W. The default value is 300
W. Lamp lifetime (relative) increases linearly as the lamp is dimmed from 2000 hours (300 W) to 2500 hours (250 W).
ECO mode must be disabled for this feature to work.
8.5Use gamma curves
About
Main m enu — Picture — Gamma
50
601-0311 F35 07/07/2017
8. Set up the picture
Gamma compensation, or gamma correction, is a way of adjus ting the signal input to light output characteristics of a display or
projector in order to suit the eye’s sensitivity to different light levels and to compensate for non-linearities in displays. Without gamma
compensation, images may look too dark or too bright, lack detail or depth. By adjusting the amount of gamma compensation
changes, you can change not only the perceived brightness levels, but also the ratios of red to green to blue.
Different types of displays have different gamma factors that need to be corrected in order to look and be perceived the same. For
example, an M S W indows generated image displayed on a CRT monitor will require a gamma c orrection value of about 2.5 to avoid
color bleaching and burning.
The gamma curve correction formula is based on output level ∝ input level ^ gamma.
Gamma curves
The projector has a range of built-in gamm a curves, available at Main menu — Picture — Gamma.
The name of the curve, for example, Computer 1, describes the recommended use.
Some curves are reserved for Advanced or Service us ers, and will only be viewable after the access code is input.
Using any of the computer curves for video applications w ill results in significant image noise.

8.6Adjust brightness, saturation and contrast
About
The brightness, contrast and saturation levels of an image can be adjusted in any display profile. Any changes to these values will
automatically be sav ed to the active profi le when you exit the O SD menu.
In general, it is recommended to adjust image contrast first, then brightness and finally saturation.
For best results, use a proper test im age to adjust all picture settings.
Brightness
Main M enu — Picture — Brightness
Brightness levels define the black levels and detail shown in the darkest parts in an image; the higher the value, the brighter the
image.
All adjustments (-50 to + 50) are dynamic. Any changes will be sav ed to the active display profile when you exit the OSD me nu.
Brightness levels can dramatically impact upon an image; important shadow detail may be lost with incorrect
brightness levels.
Contrast
Main M enu — Picture — Contrast
Contrast is the difference in brightness between the brightest and dar kest parts in an image; the higher the value, the greater the
contrast.
All adjustments (-50 to + 50) are dynamic. Any changes will be sav ed to the active display profile when you exit the OSD me nu.
Saturation
Main M enu — Picture — Saturation
Saturation levels im pact on t he white levels and the intensity of the color display; the higher the value, the more vivid the color display
will be.

About this chapter
This chapter focuses on reviewing and controlling source signal characteristics to optimize the imag e display. Succ ess ful application
of this type of adjustment requires, as a minimum, a fundamental understanding of signal characteristics and processing theory.
Overview
•Set up dual head input
•Adjust VG A input signal
•Apply source corrections
9.1Set up dual head input
About
Main men u — Installation — Dual he ad
Dual head input mode enables the left and right half of the im age to be connected to the DVI 1 / DVI 2 or HDMI 1 / HDMI 2 interfaces,
respectively.
There are some conditions to enabling dual head input m ode, specifically:
•The resolution must be exactly the sam e on both connectors.
•The two connected sources must have identical timing. Any drift will result in a visible rift in the center of the image.
•Connections can only be made on the DVI (1/2) and HDMI (1/2) interfaces.
•Only side-by-side setup can be used.
For example, a dual head setup for a WUXGA (1920 x 1200) 120 Hz source would require two 960 x 1200 1 20 Hz s ource resolutions.
See image 9-1.
Some graphic cards have problems with detecting the change from single head to dual head mode. If problems occur, disconnect both signal cables and then attempt to enable or disable dual head mode via the OS D
or RS-232 control interface.

About
Whenever a source is detected, the projector uses metadata provided by the source to automatically de fi ne:
•Input source type (computer or video)
•Color space (RGB, YCbCr 601, Y CbCr 709)
•Input levels (contrast and brightness levels)
In almost all cases, the projector will automatically read and interpret the metad ata correctly and display the image properly. However, in some c ases the source metadata can be corrupted or the projector may be unable to read the encrypted file correctly, which
can lead to the image displaying incorrectly. The following table describes the most common symptoms and solutions for source
anomalies.

10. COLOR CALIBRATION
About this chapter
All F-series projectors are calibrated for maximum color and brightness performance at the factory. Measurements are made on
a full white screen with zero gain, no ambient light, and using state of the art measuring tools. This ensures users have a highly
accurate base for setting white point and color c oordinates.
For many applications the factory calibration will be adequate. However, in those installations where color matching is of the utmost
importance, color calibration will be necessary to neutralize any changes in the projected im age that may be c aused by altering any
or all of the following: lamp type, lamp output power, ambient lighting, lens type, screen type.
This chapter discusses the various color and color calibration tools available to the user, as w

About RealColor™
All Barco projectors are measured and calibrated for m aximum color and brightness before leaving the f actory, how ever external
factors may impact on the accuracy of the projector’s color settings. Rea lColor is a proprietary c olor management suite developed
to give users better, faster and more accurate control of projector
installations where precise color reproduction is a necessity.
The bas is of RealColor is a unique measurement and characterization process that each projector goes through before it leaves the
factory. The results of the procedures, the measured optical and electrical char acteristics, are input into the projector and stored
as system settings. This data is then used by the projector as a reference point for all future alterations. All projectors are hand

Use RealColor™ to manage the color display
All colors visible to the eye are defined by the CIE XYZ Chart, ref. image 10-1. The boundary of the colors the projector can display
is called the system color gamut.
Changing the system color gamut may be useful to:
•Color m atch multiple projectors
•Meetdefined color standards, e.g. REC 709
•Create a certain ’look’ to the image
The RealColor™ menu, Main Menu — Picture — RealColor, provides users with advanced color calibration functions including:
•Apply a BrilliantColor™ mode
•Select a different gamma profile
•Apply or remove automatic color correction
•Calibrate the color display using color temper ature and/or color coordinates (x,y)
The system color gamut cannot be expanded outside of the projector’s native color gamut.

10.2 BrilliantColor™
About Brillia ntColor™
The F35 features Texas Instruments DLP® BrilliantColor™ technology designed to improve the optical efficiency of DLP display engines. For UHP lamp s, this technology is able t o achieve up to 50% improvement in brightness over traditional three color s olutions.
BrilliantColor technology offers up to six-color processing enabling a wide color gamut and making it possible to produce over one
billion colors. The wide color gamut is better suited to accurately display colors found in nature, giving the viewer a truly life-like
image.
BrilliantColor m ode availability and display is dependant on the type of color wheel installed in the projector, see next section for
details.

Best practice is to perform the calibration in the same environment as the projector will be used. If this is not possible due to the
nature of the installation, calibration should be performed in a con trolled light env ironment (dark room). Too much ambient light
falling onto the scre en can make it impossible to get exact re sults.
It is important to do all measurements from the same place in the room, at the same place on the screen. Use a tripod for the chroma
meter if possible. The test images should fill the screen and be measured one at a time.
Always calibrate using test images from the same source that is to be used with the projector in the installation.
10.4 Calibrate projector color
Necessary tools
•Calibrated Chrom a Meter

About
The following procedure is applicable for F35 10 80, WUXGA and WQXGA projectors fitted with VizSim and VizSim Bright c olor
wheels. For information on the c alibration process for pr ojectors using Graphics or High Brightness color wheels, read the ProNet
user docum entation.
All m onitors and displays change over time. Correctly calibrating your projector balances the brightness levels in all three colors
(RGB) and establishes the correct white point (D65) which in turn yields a more balanced and controlled level of brightness in your
imagery.
The internal temperature of the p rojector can affect calibration. For best results, allow the projector to warm
up for at least 10 minutes before starting the color c alibration process.

8. Input the measured values into the RealColor calibration menu: Main M enu — Picture — RealColor — Measured Values.
9. Normalize the brightness values (gain) for red, green, and blue relative to white.
Note: The luminance value of White (B) acts as the norm alizer. To calculate the normalized luminance values (V) for each of
the other colors (A), divide each individual luminance value by the white luminance.
For example: If the luminance v alue of White (B) is measured as 794, and the Red luminance value (A) is 205, then the
normalized value of Red will be 0.26L (205L/794L=0.26L).

11. Color Wheels
11. COLOR WHEELS
General
DLP™ techno logy creates projected images by presenting colors in a sequential format, using the primary colors r ed, green, and
blue to create and reproduce any computer or video generated color or combination of colors. S equential color display w orks by
displaying only one single color at the time, for very short periods, so that the eye and brain interprets the resulting image as a
full color one. The process of creating full color images by switching between the primary colors happens incredibly fast and is
imperceptible to almost all viewers. Using a specific color wheel enables projectors to be tailored to s pecific requirements and
applications, such as pure black and white imaging, wide color gamut s imulation and visualization, g eneral graphics display, medical
imaging, and so forth.
The F35 is available with three color wheel options. E ach c olor wheel option gives slightly different performance characteristics,
enabling a perfect match to the desired application. Color whe els can be changed by cer tified service personnel, either in the field
or at Barcoapproved service centres.

About
VizSim is a pure RGB color wheel that delivers great depth of color and a broad gamut, without raw brightness.
Typical app lications: post production and home theatre..
Image 11-1
11.2 VizSim Bright
About
VizSim Bright is perfectly suited to larger venues where brightness and color are of equal importance. The color wheel arrangement
enables faster processing and less artefacts than a standard three segment c olor wheel. In addition, improved coating and higher
transmission rates ensure highly accurate colors, making it the recommende d choice for multi-channel installations.
High Brightness MKIII delivers on average 17.5 %3more brightness (lum ens) than the High Brightness MKII color wheel. When using
a High Brightness Color wheel some picture adjustment functions, for example Smear Reduction Processing, are not available.
Color wheels with white seg men ts can cause artefacts when used in conjunction with digital blending. Use
of the VizSim or VizSim Bright color wheel is recommended for digitally blended multi-channel applications.
Typical applications: digital signage, education, meeting rooms and large venues.

About this chapter
This chapter describes the m a in functionality and parameters of the projector when setting up a 2D or passive 3D multichannel
installation, that is, an installation comprising several projec tors pr ojecting image s simultaneously across one or more screens.
Implementing a successful m ulti-channel installation is a highly technical and demanding task that requires
significant theoretical understanding of projection techniques. Barco recommends that all mult
stallations be carried out by, or in close association with, qualified and experienced projectionists.

12.1 Synchronization best practice
Projector requirements
•Use projectors and lenses that are of the same make and model
•Illumination systems (UHP lamps or LED) should be of the same type and age; lamp/LED power settings should be identical
for all projectors
•All projector settings, including current software version, should be identical
Physical setup
•Always align the projectors precisely
•Allow an overlap of 10% of the total im age size
i-channel in-
General
Wherever possible, synchronization in multi-channel installations should be done at the image generator (IG) level rather than at the
projector level.
Consider the setup shown in image 12-1. This is a typical dual head setup w here each projector channel is driven by two individual
Image Generators (IG). The problem is that the IG are not in sync with each other. Each projector will synchronize its projected
image with the DP1 input. Frame rate conversion will be applied to the other input as necessary, but the two projectors w ill not be
in sync with each other.
IR
DVI
Image 12-1
Synchronizing the IG is the only way all im age artifacts may be eliminated from the resulting image and is true for all projector brands;
not only Barco projectors. If, for some reason , this is not p ossible, extra synchronization must be performed by the projectors, which
will generate motion ar tifacts in the resulting image.

About
The projector is c apable of displaying both active stereo 3D (AS3D) and passive stereo 3D (passive 3D) imagery.
Setup of an 3D Multichannel installation, in particular AS3D, is a technically and practically demanding task that requires advanced
theoretical understanding of projection techniques as well as significant practical experience.
In this setup, it is crucial that the projected images are perfectly synchronized to ensure t hat all pr

13.1 AS3D modes
About
When operating as a standalone unit, the F35 supports frame s equential mode as standard. There are two different 3D modes; frame
sequential and side-by-side. On its own, the F(L)35 projectors support frame sequential mode with the additional requirement that
the input source must have a V-sync frequency between 96 and 1 21 Hz. Using the DCC120 X-PORT™ module, this requirement is
removed and additional support for side-by-side 3D is added.
In frame sequential 3D every other frame is interpreted as the left eye frame and the other input frame is interpreted as the right
eye frame. To ensure that the projector chooses the correct frames as the
connected from the IG’s display adapter BNC connector to the projector’s sync–in connector
frequency betw een 90 and 121 Hz.. If this signal information is not present then the projector will choose the first input frame as the
left eye frame and the next input frame as the right eye frame. This wi
When the X-PORT DCC120 module (optional accessory) is installed, the projector also supports side-by-side mode.
In side-by-side 3D each input frame is divided in half a nd the left half of the frame is used as the left eye frame and the right half of
the input frame is used as the right eye frame. This makes the output width become half of the input width. If, for example, the input
is 1920x1200 @ 60Hz, the output will be 960 x 1200 @ 120Hz
The projector also supports “passive to active 3D c onversion” .
To achieve this, dual head functionality is enabled and 3D mod e is set to side-by-side. The projector will take the left half of this
combined image, which is in fact the source on DVI1 , and use it as the left eye source. Similarly, DVI2 will be used as the right eye
source.
In a dual head installation, the two sources need to have the same resolution. For example, if both inputs
are 1920x1200 @ 60Hz, the combined dual head so urce w ill be seen b y the projector as a single 3840x1200 @
60Hz so urce.

AS3D Synchronization best practice
The system complexity increases further when the installation consists of m ultiple c hannels. If the system is not designed correctly
or the individual system com ponents are not configured correctly, image artifacts will occur; or the image might not be displayed at
all. A very important aspect of planning any multi-channel installation is how to synchronize the projected channels. When in AS3D
it is impossible to obtain realistic 3D imagery if the projectors and projected images are not per fectly synchronized as the left eye

13.6 Asynchronous side by side
About
In asynchronous side-by-side 3D, the projector utilizes the BNC sync-in and sync-out connectors to distribute a system wide display

In this setup the projectors need the following settings to send/utilize the d isplay sync correctly:
jectors to perform frame rate conversion on the input signals if necessary.
8. The 3D BNC sync-out signal is not used in this scenario but it could for instance be used to drive an IR emitter in which case this setting must be set to 3D glass sync.

14. X-PORT
About
X-PORT is a module–based post-processing system designed to deliver extended 3D connectivity, such as 3G-SDI and HDMI 3D,
as well as additional 3D format support, such as Blu-Ray f rame packed, dual input sources, and double flash 3D.
The F35 has two X-PORT interfaces: X-PORT 1 and X-PORT 2.
Before installing the X -PORT module, ensure that the m ains power supply to both the projector a nd the source
are disconnected and switched off. Failure to do this may damage both the projector and the X-PORT module.
14. X-Port
The X-PORT interfaces are at the rear of the projector in the area directly above the connection panel, see image 14-1. Each
X-PORT module is designed for a s pecific interface, X-PORT 1 or X-PO RT 2. Should the module be installed to the wrong interface,
the projector will not work correctly and the m odule must be removed and reinstalled before the projector can be used.
Each X-PORT module is physically marked with wh ether it is an X-PORT 1 or X-PORT 2 module. T he pr ojector is also marked with
“X-PORT 1” and “X-PORT 2” on the rear cover behind the X-PORT cover plate.
The installation process for each X-PORT module is given in the Qu ick St

•Converts any dual head signal from DVI-D and HDMI into one sequential stream of up to 120Hz.
•Performs frame rate conversion for all 3D Stereoscopic sources.
•Minimizes cost of new or existing input-infrastructure.
The module is designed to support dual input 3D (left and right eye in separate cables) and double flash 3D.
Dual input 3D with left and right eye information is supported for HDMI or DVI–D signals.
For double flash 3D, sequential 3D is supported between 48 and 60 Hz (24 to 30 Hz per eye) on a single input connector. The input
signal will then be conv erted to a standard 3D feed between 96 and 120 Hz..
The X-PORT DCC120 is designed for installation to the projector’s X-PORT 1 interface. The module has no input connectors.
Sources are connected directly to the projector source connector panel (see "Connector Panel", page 38 for more details).

Frame sequential
When dual head mode is enabled, the projector will combine the signals from DVI1 and DVI2
(or HDMI1 and HDMI2), place them beside each other and interpret it a s a single source. The
two sources need to have the same resolution. For ex ample, if both inputs are 1920x1200 @
60Hz, the combined dual head source will be seen by the projector as a single 3840x1200 @
60Hz source. If, now, 3D mode is set to side-by-side, the projec tor will take the left half of
this combined image, which is in fact the source on DVI1, and use it as the left eye source.
Information for the right half of the image will be generated from DVI2.
