SOFT EDGE BLENDING

8-1. SOFT EDGE BLENDING (SEB Mode with Di-VentiX II)

8-2. SOFT EDGE SETUP

To achieve a correct soft edge, follow the simple steps below.
1.

Switch on your unit(s).

In the “Control” menu, activate the “Erase Memories” option on

all units.

In the “Control” menu, activate the “Default Values” option on

all units.

If setting up a Soft edge with only one unit, in the “Mode” menu

select the “Embedded SEB” mode.

If setting up a Softedge with multiple units, in the “Mode” menu

select the “Mixer” mode.

In the “Output” menu, set the “Output Format” at the same

resolution (native resolution) of the projectors that you use.

6. Physically align the projectors so that their internal test

patterns are correctly displayed on the screen. To do a correct

projection, the projectors must be positioned at 90° with the

screen in both the X and Y axes.

You can also use the “Grid” test pattern in the “Output” – “Test

Pattern” menu to help you properly align the projectors together.

WARNING: It is absolutely forbidden to use the projectors’ Keystone

function to correct some image parallelism problem. Using the

Keystone will later render IMPOSSIBLE the Softedge Curves

adjustment. In other words, using the Keystone on the projectors

make it impossible to have a clean Softedge projection!!!

To setup a soft edge blend using only one unit, you need to set the unit in Embedded SEB Mode, and connect

the left projector to “Output #1” (Main) and the right projector to “Output #2” (Preview).

In this Embedded SEB Mode type of setup, your unit does not have a Preview anymore, unless the unit is equipped

with an Optional Video Output Board. In this case, you can use the Optional Video Output for your preview

purposes (adjust the “Video Out” to the format of the monitor connected to it).

If you want to do a soft edge setup using multiple units, you need to set all of the units to Mixer Mode and

connect the projectors to “Output #1” (Main) of each unit.
