4 3D Converter Box Operation
All the functions of the 3D Converter Box can be controlled using either the remote control or the
2 buttons on the 3D Converter Box (the Mode Button and the Source Button).
3D Inputs
2D Inputs
2DTV
4.1 Using the 3D Converter Box with 3D Content (3D Auto Detect)
3D Source Devices include: 3D Blu-Ray Players, TV Set-Top-Box, Gaming Consoles
4.1.1 Getting Ready
1. Ensure all connections are correct as described in the Installation section and the TV is
tuned to the appropriate HDMI channel.
2. This section is for playing 3D Content e.g. a 3D Blu-ray
4.1.2 Usage
1. In this case the 3D content is HDMI 1.4a compliant and the 3D Converter Box
automatically detects the 3D format.
2. Insert a 3D Movie or 3D Game into the input device and start the movie/game playing in
3D mode.
3. There are 2 Modes on the 3D Converter Box:
a. 3D to Anaglyph-3D Conversion allows you to watch 3D content in 3D on a 2DTV
b. 3D to 2D allows you to watch 3D content as 2D on a 2DTV

12
4. Pressing the “Mode Button” on the Remote Control or on the 3D Converter Box moves
through the available modes when playing 3D content.
5. There are 2 modes as shown below
6. Press the “OK” button to see the 3D Mode and Status
7. 3D to Anaglyph-3D Mode : When you connect first, the default mode is “3D to
Anaglyph-3D Conversion Mode”. You can watch 3D content on your 2DTV using the
supplied glasses and the LEDs will indicate the input content format as below.
This allows the 3D movie to be watched on your 2DTV.
Note that the on-screen message will indicate which mode you are in when you press the
mode button.

13
Put on your 3D Glasses and enjoy the experience!
8. 3D-2D Mode : Press the “Mode Button” again. This changes the mode to “3D to 2D
Mode”. This converts the 3D movie to 2D and you can watch it on your TV as normal 2D.
You do not need to wear your glasses for this.
4.1.3 A Little More Information About 3D Formats
Note: There are 3 3D Formats. The 3D Converter Box supports all 3 formats:
• 3D Side-by-Side
• 3D Top-and-Bottom
• 3D Frame Packing
The 3D Converter Box will automatically identify and switch to the correct format if the input
source is HDMI 1.4a compliant.

14
The LEDs on the front of the 3D Converter Box will show different patterns depending on the
3D Format that is currently being used.
4.2 Using the 3D Converter Box with other 3D Content e.g. Media Players
Other 3D Source Devices include: Media Players, some Set-Top-Boxes and some Gaming
Consoles
In this case the 3D Content may not be fully HDMI 1.4a compliant so the 3D Converter Box will
be unable to detect the 3D format. The user must choose the correct setting manually on the 3D
Converter Box to set the input 3D format.
4.2.1 Getting Ready
1. Ensure all connections are correct as described in the Installation section and the TV
is tuned to the appropriate HDMI channel.
2. The video content will now be playing on the screen
4.2.2 Usage
1. There are 4 Modes on the 3D Converter Box:
a. Bypass
b. 2D to Anaglyph-3D Conversion
c. 3D(Side-by-Side) to Anaglyph-3D Conversion
d. 3D (Top-and-Bottom) to Anaglyph-3D Conversion
2. Pressing the “Mode” Button on the front panel or on the Remote Control will switch
between a and b.
3. To access the other modes select the Mode option in the Main Menu. This allows the
user to select one of these modes and preview the effect on screen.

4. For example if you know the input content is in Side-by-Side 3D Format and the
Converter Box does not Auto-Detect this mode, you can put the converter box into
this mode using the mode button.
4.3 Using the 3D Converter Box with a 2D Source Device
2D Source Devices include: Blu-ray Players, DVD Players, TV Set-Top-Boxes, Game Consoles,
Other Media Devices
4.3.1 Getting Ready

Conversion Mode”. In this section we are assuming the input content is in 2D format.
Put on your 3D glasses and enjoy the 3D experience.

17
Note that other modes are available via the Mode Button as described in the other
sections. If other modes are selected with 2D content then the colors and video on the
screen may look strange.
4.4 Changing the Input Video Source
Input Video Source devices can be connected to either HDMI 1 input port or HDMI 2 Input Port or
you can connect 2 devices to the ports simultaneously.
