The Acer projector you have bought has integrated DLP and NVIDIA 3D

technology.

If you have connected your projector to a computer, please read sections "Using

NVIDIA 3D technology" on page 4 or "Using DLP 3D technology" on page 7.

If you have connected your projector to a DVD or Blu-ray player, please read

"Watching 3D DVD or Blu-ray content" on page 10.

Important: When you turn the 3D technology on, you will be

shown a reminder that 3D is enabled. If you do not wish to view

3D content, you should turn it off, otherwise the image may not

be projected at full brightness.

If you are using an HDMI 1.4 connection and Blu-ray 3D content or

above you will also be prompted to select the type of 3D glasses

you are using. Make your selection and press Menu to confirm.

Using 3D glasses

NVIDIA 3D Vision and DLP 3D glasses are powered. In order to enhance battery

life, they turn off after a few minutes of inactivity. Before you can view 3D

content, you need to ensure the glasses are turned on. In many cases, there is a

power switch on one of the arms that you can press, and an LED that indicates if

the glasses are turned on or not.

Note: Refer to the documentation that came with your glasses for

instructions how to turn them on and how to change the battery.
