Congratulations on your purchase of the 3D Creator. Your satisfaction is very important to us.
Our 3D Creator is designed to make the use of your HDTV equipment more comfortable.
The 3D creator provides the 2D to 3D converting function which will help you watch 3D effect while playing with 2D video. HT3D-110 is also designed to work with 2D HDTV, 3D TV, and DLP projector, which allow users enjoy 3D effect on those sink devices.
The 3D Creator provides immersive 3D effects on 2D HDTV, 3DTV, or DLP Projector. On the 2D HDTV, you can enjoy red/cyan 3D effect no matter source contents are 2D or 3D. Some 3DTV do not provide 2D to 3D converting function; however, by using 3D Creator, users can convert 2D videos in to 3D effect in real time and watch them on the 3DTV.
3D Ready DLP projector is becoming popular for the home A/V entertainment, but most of people dont know how to use the 3D function of the projector. User can not watch 3D effect on the projector due to the problem of supporting 3D format by the DLP projector. With the 3D Creator, user can easily watch 3D effect on the 3D ready DLP projector.
For the best performance of this 3D Creator, please read this manual carefully and keep it for
further usage.

Technical Specification
1. When there is no picture presented, please: Make sure the direct connection from the source device to the display device without the 3D
Creator is working.
Check if all connectors are connected well; and check if all cables can support the transmission
speed. High Speed HDMI cables are recommended.
Check the power of 3D Creator in on. 3D Creator does not have de-interlace function, please set the output signal of source devices
to 1080p, 720p, or 480p.
3D Creator may not support some 3D videos that are formatted in 1080p/24fps. It may cause no
pictures presented on the sink device.
2. When there is only picture displayed and without sound:
Check the cable connection to see if it fits properly. Check your cable to see if it supports video transmission only (DVI) or it is damaged. HDCP may not match very well at first connection; please restart your 3D Creator.
TROUBLE SHOOTING
7
3. When there is no 3D effect (Red/Cyan, DLP-frame sequential, side-by-side half) presented, please:
Make sure set the 3D Creator in the right mode. Make sure provided videos are correct formats (3D programs for Mode 1 & 2; 2D programs for
Mode 3~5).
Make sure the sink device can support specified format (frame sequential, side-by-side half). Make sure the power of shutter glasses is on (Mode 2, 4, 5). Make sure turn on the 3D function of DLP Projector (Mode2, 5). Check the power of 3D Creator. Make sure your 3DTV can support side-by-side 3D video format (Mode 4). 3D Creator can successfully convert following video formats:
1080p @ 50, 60Hz 720p @ 50, 60Hz
4. What if the 3D effect is not good enough?
Please adjust level to fit the most comfortable feeling (Mode 3, 4, 5). Using Red/Cyan glasses may causing some color differ from the original color; it is normal. Different videos may have different 3D effect after converting. Make sure the power of shutter glasses is on (Mode 2, 4, 5). Mode 2 & 5 only apply for DLP projector only. Make sure using the correct shutter glasses.
