Chapter 4 Operations Switching the Display of the 3D Video Signal When the optional BKM-250TG input adaptor is installed, the left (L) and right (R) 3D video signals in dual-stream HD-SDI format can be compared on the screen (3D signal analyzing function). For this function, two-dimensional (2D) view is used. The signals are not displayed in stereoscopic view. The following five display modes are available: For details on the installation of the input adaptor (BKM250TG), see "Installing an Input Adaptor" on page 20. Difference display The difference between the luminance signal of the left (L) signal and that of the right (R) signal is displayed. A gray portion indicates that the luminance level of the two signals is the same. When the luminance level of the two signals is not the same, a monochrome image is displayed according to the difference in the luminance. This function is useful for checking the amount of parallax. Checkerboard display Left signal (L) Right signal (R) Checkerboard display The left (L) and right (R) signals are displayed in a checkerboard pattern on the same screen for comparing the brightness or colors of the L and R signals. L/R Switch display The left (L) and right (R) signals are switched alternately on the screen for comparing the brightness or colors of the L and R signals. Horopter Check display The display mode for the left (L) and right (R) 3D video signals can be switched for easy checking of the two signals. Set Horopter Check (page 61) in the 3D Setting menu of the Function Setting menu to one of the display modes listed below. Set Right for the right signal, and Left for the left signal. Normal: Normal picture Black: Displays a black signal only (the video signal is not displayed). Mono: Displays the video signal in monochrome mode. Red: Displays only the red component of the video signal. Blue: Displays only the blue component of the video signal. Flip H display The input 3D video signals whose left (L) or right (R) signal has been inverted horizontally by a half-mirror type 3D rig are displayed as non-inverted images. Procedure 1 Input 3D video signals. 2 Set the desired display mode of the 3D signal analyzing function (Difference, Checkerboard, L/R Switch, Horopter Check or Flip H) to On by pressing the function button1) of the controller or in the Function Switch menu (page 62) of the Function Setting menu. If the desired display mode of the 3D signal analyzing function has been assigned to a pin of the PARALLEL REMOTE connector, set Parallel Remote (page 69) in the System Configuration menu to On. 1) Difference, Checkerboard, L/R Switch, Horopter Check or Flip H is assigned to a function button of the controller in the Function Key menu (page 79) of the Controller menu. To stop execution of the 3D signal analyzing function Set Difference, Checkerboard, L/R Switch, Horopter Check or Flip H to Off in the Function Switch menu (page 62) of the Function Setting menu. Or set the corresponding function button of the controller to off. The Difference, Checkerboard, L/R Switch or Horopter Check display is returned to the normal display and the currently selected left or right signal is displayed. The Flip H display is returned to the normal display without inversion. Notes • To use the 3D signal analyzing function, use an optional BKM-250TG input adaptor. The available display modes of the 3D signal analyzing function differ depending on the serial number of the BKM-250TG as follows: With serial number 7100001 or higher: - Checkerboard - L/R Switch - Horopter Check - Flip H 93 Switching the Display of the 3D Video Signal
