Installation & Setup
Each pair of CrystalEyes eyewear includes two fresh batteries, which are installed at the factory. A compatible
stereo computer grapics or video system must be available to check the operation of the eyewear. To activate
the eyewear, unfold the temple pieces; to turn off the eyewear, fold the templepieces. When not in use, fold
your CrystalEyes eyewear with the temples laying flat across the back of the lenses for convenient storage.
Always fold the eyewear when not in use to maximize the battery life.
Installing the StereoGraphics Emitter
StereoGraphics CrystalEyes requires the use of an infrared emitter in order to synchronize the eyewear in
conjunction with the left and right image sequence on screen. The I/R receiver (located in the center of the
eyewear) must be in line of sight and in range of the emitter for successful operation of CrystalEyes. Please
consult the documentation accompanying your emitter for installation and operation details.
In all cases except for non-stereo-ready PCs, the system or graphics card manufacturer requires specific display
settings to enable Stereo3D mode. Please consult the manual or vendor for your specific graphics subsystem to
determine the proper settings for Stereo3D mode. For best results in using CrystalEyes with standard
workstation displays, set the emitter slightly behind the top edge of the monitor, as shown in Figure 1. In
addition:
• For EPRO, ESGI and ELR emitters, make sure the emitter is switched
to the ON position. Depending on the emitter range needed, switch
the emitter to either the high or low setting.
• The ENT emitter will switch on and off automatically whenever a sync
signal is presented by the graphics card.
• Users of the EPC-2 must switch the emitter from BYPASS to STEREO
MODE and set the emitter range separately.

Prescription Glasses
If you normally wear prescription eyeglasses, place CrystalEyes over them. The eyewear will fit
comfortably over most prescription eyeglass frames.
