4 Helpful Tips for system installation and setup
a. Select digital input to get better image and avoid image position shift.
b. If 4k signal connection distance is more than 10m, please select a certified HDMI cable to avoid
unstable signal connection. Usually [High Speed HDMI + Ethernet] cable will be better.
c. The quality for signal adapter or converter, such as HDMI to DVI adapter and DisplayPort to HDMI
converter, may downgrade the signal quality and cause issue. Please select qualified ones.
d. If user can see blue background image with [Power Saving Mode] message, it means the signal
connection between projector and GeoBox is OK but no input signal detected by GeoBox. Please
check signal source or replace a different input source to test.
e. If user can’t see [Power Saving Mode] message or splash screen, please check the connection
between GeoBox and projector. User can connect to a monitor to check the output from GeoBox.
[Loop out] port is for raw signal daisy chain connection and is not a output to projector.
f. The output resolution setting shall be the same as projector native resolution to get the best video
quality. After geometry alignment, this output resolution can’t be changed. Otherwise, geometry
position will be shifted and required further adjustment.
g. In the application with short throw ratio projector on curved screen, it is possible that the image
location is beyond the maximum adjustment range in manual adjustment. In this case, Gwarp PC
tool is required to double the adjustment range.
h. During installation setup process, please apply FHD signal to the system for easy setup. After
finish the setup, user can select optimized EDID from OSD menu to get optimized video quality.
i. The optimized EDID resolution should be the final resolution after edge blending. For instance, if
user uses three XGA projectors for edge blending with 250 overlapped pixels, then the best signal
for this setup will be 1024*3-250*2=2572. It means 2572*768 will be the best signal resolution for
this setup. User can customize EDID with this resolution in GeoBox. Some PC may not be able to
output the same custom resolution. In this case, user needs to set PC output resolution as close
this timing as possible. GeoBox can support none-VESA standard input timings.
j. In addition to the resolution settings, user needs to provide a content with the same aspect ratio
as screen to ensure no distortion on the screen.
k. To reset all projectors before edge blending to get the same settings in all projectors.
l. To turn off auto keystone function to avoid image shift.
m. In order to avoid interference among multiple GeoBox during the installation, user can set ID
number for each GeoBox through [Options] Menu. Press number keys in Remote Controller for
the control of multiple GeoBox:
850: simultaneous control for all GeoBox
851: control GeoBox ID No. 1
853: control GeoBox ID No. 3
n. OSD Lock / Unlock: When continuously press [OKD Lock] key on Front Panel or [Menu] key in IR
Remote Control for 5 seconds, the OSD function will be locked to prevent from setting change by
G-602
9
negligence. To press [OSD Lock] key or [MENU] key for 5 seconds again, it will unlock OSD and
user can manipulate the OSD again.
o. [Image Setup] menu will not be activated if the input source is not from VGA.
p. Please reset GeoBox before any new application to avoid unexpected settings in the system. If
deeper reset is required, user can turn on GeoBox and press both [Menu] + [Pattern] key on front
panel and power on GeoBox again for 5 seconds. It will reset the system
q. To set [Menu Time Out] to “0”, the OSD will appear till the OSD Menu has been turned off
manually or system input timing change.
r. Default Internal Grid Pattern represents 32x32 pixels no matter which input resolution is selected.
s. Only HDMI-A input port can provide HDMI raw signal loop out for daisy chain connection. This
loop out signal has no any processing.
t. When [Gwarp] PC tool is used, user needs to save the setting into GeoBox through the OSD
menu: [Anyplace] [Gwarp Pro] select [UserMap 1-10] to save the settings. Then PC can be
removed.
u. When Power Off/ON GeoBox, it will maintain the final settings.
v. User needs to save the final setting into [Profile] under [Options] menu for long tern stored inside
the system. Even the system is reset, the [Profile] settings will be kept without change.
w. Continuously press PATTERN button, internal test pattern will show different colors for easy
installation: White—Red—Green—Blue—Blank. When in “Blank”, user can see OSD and the
image from signal source. In this case, PC test pattern can be applied.
x. Please use INFO hot key on front panel or remote controller to check the input and output timing.
The indicators on the front panel will show the input/output connection status.
y. User can set black background while no input signal is detected and input timing change under
[Options] [Accessibility] menu.
z. Below hotkeys are available in remote controller:
[Warp] geometry alignment, [Video wall], [Edge Blend], [Info], [CH A/B] switching.

5 Applications case study
5.1 Case A: Conventional curved screen edge blending
a. No PC is required.
b. To feed signal from any signal source to G-602 HDMI input port and connect to the 2nd G-602 through
loop out port. No HDMI splitter is required. The latency among these G-602 will be only few lines. The
max daisy chain connection can be up to about 12x G-602 . However, it will depend on the HDMI
cable length and quality. User needs to check in advance.
c. The maximum input resolution can be up to 2560x1600/3840x1080 @60Hz or 3840x2400 @30Hz to
get the best result in multiple projector edge blending.
d. User needs to do geometry adjustment and warping function to align the images onto curved screen
and let the images between two projectors have the same grid size and with necessary overlap pixels.
e. After geometry and warp adjustment, user can apply Video Wall function in G-602 to split the image,
crop the correct area and assign to each projector.
f. The last step is to do edge blending to combine the images into one seamless screen.
g. If the application is in dark environment, to do [Offset] compensation is required to eliminate black
level color difference between edge blending area and none edge blending area.

(Flight simulation system with 3 projectors on half Dome)
(Cylindrical curved screen edge blending up to 360 degrees with 6x projectors and 3x G-602)
5.2 Case B: Flexible display in edge blending system
1. 4 projector edge blending can be configured as below:
2. 4 projectors edge blending into one content
3. Independent two discrete contents (2+2)
4. Two projectors edge blending and one single projector display with original aspect ratio.
5. If user can add one G-101 at the front end, user can implement PIP/POP across entire display
screen.
6. User can save the setting into Profile and recall at any time.
7. If discrete 4 projector displays is required, G-700 model is required.
G-602
12
5.3 Case C: High resolution Edge Blending
a. Usually, each full HD signal can feed up to 3- 4x projectors for 10m screen and still keep acceptable
video quality (it will also depend on the watching distance).
2 projectors as one edge
blending system to
provide 2+2 displays
2 projectors edge blending
+ one projector display

G-602
13
b. Many video cards can easily provide upto 4x 3840x1080 outputs for G-602
c. Each PC output is fed into one G-602, then to two projectors. 4 outputs will be fed to 8 projectors.
d. If the overlap pixels is 250, then it can provide a video wall with 13,610x1080 output resolutions.
e. If the watching distance is 5m, the video pixel pitch can be about 5mm. In this case, the total screen
size can be up to 13610x5mm=68m and still keep acceptable video quality.
f. The display card should have the function to set overlapped pixels between two output ports. In the
case of four output display card, PC should be able to set overlapped pixels between output P2/P3,
P4/P5 and P6/P7. The overlapped pixels should be up to about 20%-25% of the output resolution. The
rest overlap areas (P1/P2, P3/P4, P5/P6, P7/P8) can be set by GeoBox.
g. If the display card doesn’t have above mentioned overlap setting function, then user needs to create a
content with some overlapped pixels up to about 20%-25% between outputs.
h. GeoBox can do geometry alignment, split the image, assign image for each projector and capture the
right size of the image for edge blending.
i. If one output can be connected to two G-602 through daisy chain connection, one 3840x1080 output
can be connected to 4 projectors and total projectors will become 16. If one PC output can be daisy
chain connection to 3x G-602, then 4 output will connect up to 24 projectors and the total video wall
can be more than 50m and still with good video quality.
j. The advantage for this kind of application is high output resolution. However, it still has some
limitations.
The major input source shall come from multiple PC, PC with multiple windows disply card or
media player with cascade function (such as Bright Sign).
The PC shall have enough processing power to handle multiple output windows. More video
output ports from display card will occupy more PC resource.
Different playing contents (compressed types) may also require different CPU resource. User
needs to test before implement this kind of display system.
The output aspect ratio will be changed depending on the display system. User needs to take
care of the aspect ratio in the source content in advance.
k. Edge blending will increase the total resolution. Usually, the video quality will be good enough for most
of the applications if output resolution in each projector can reach XGA/WXGA resolution.
l. User can connect with other signal sources like Blue Ray or Media Player to other input ports in G-602.
By selecting different input ports and applying different GeoBox settings, it will provide different display
modes. For example, for 3 projector edge blending, user can set all three edge blending, two projector
edge blending and one has discrete display or each projector has independent content.
m. GeoBox can reduce the CPU loading in PC and reserve more CPU resource to handle interactive or
other operation without image lag.
5.4 Case D: “L/M” shape video wall with edge blending
Below is example of the application in restaurant with “L” shape video wall:
a. 3x WXGA projectors: two projectors edge blending on the front screen and another projector is located
at side wall.
b. The image is met at the corner. It is not necessary to do edge blending at the corner. User just needs to
G-602
14
do geometry alignment to let the image meet at the corner.
c. User can use Video Wall function to split the image into 3x (using ZOOM function) and use PAN and
OVERLAP function to capture the right size of the image and assign to each projector.
d. Three projectors should have the same image captured size to avoid different scaling factor in the
projectors. It can be adjusted through Video Wall Overlap function.
e. To do edge blending on the front two projectors and the image in side wall only needs geometry
alignment and Video Wall setting.
5.5 Case E: Irregular curved display or edge blending
User can use G-602 to do manual adjust and achieve curved display for most of regular curved screen.
Once the screen has special shape, then to use Gwarp PC tool for the alignment may be necessary.

projectors.
Two projector edge blending + one
projector in the side wall.
GeoBox can combines all image
together with the right scaling factor
into one seamless image.
Three walls with 8 projectors. 4
projectors executes edge blending on
“L” wall and 4 projectors executed edge
blending on floor. GeoBox combines all
images with the right scaling factor into
one seamless image.

5.6 Case F: Active 3D and passive 3D display
User can use one G-602 as 3D de-multiplexer to decode HDMI 1.4 3D signal or active 3D frame
sequential 100/120Hz signals for passive 3D display using two projectors. This kind of passive 3D
application can be expanded to bigger screen through edge blending with more GeoBox and
projectors. User can also increase brightness in 3D system through image stacking with more
projectors.
User can convert Nvidia 3D Vision 1080p 120Hz 3D signal and 1080p/24Hz frame packing 3D from
Blue Ray into 720p/XGA 100Hz/120Hz frame sequential 3D signal for DLPLink 3D Ready projectors.
Passive 3D will be the best solution for large scale 3D display through edge blending. If applying
multiple projectors in active 3D display, user may meet active 3D synchronization issue. Passive 3D
will have no synchronization issue and will be more comfortable than active 3D.

6 Internal Grid Pattern for Geometry Adjustment
To press [PATTERN] key in Remote Controller or at front panel, it will show internal grid pattern. By
continuously pressing [PATTERN] key, different color grid patterns will appear cyclically from White
Red Green Blue Blank. If user wants to disable grid pattern, please use Exit key in
Remote Control or Menu key in Front Panel. Each grid pattern is 32 pixels in width and height. User
