Your computer display must be configured correctly to be compatible with
the STAR displays. The specific steps required to configure the display
options will vary from one operating system to another and even between
different versions of Windows.
The following steps demonstrate configuring Windows 7 for a 1280 x 720
display resolution – the maximum resolution compatible with the STAR
1200.
§ Left-click on an open area of a Windows 7 desktop and select “Screen
resolution” from the drop menu.
§ From the Control Panel’s “Multiple displays:” drop list, select “Duplicate
these displays”
Tip: Other versions of Windows may refer to “Duplicate displays” as “Mirrored
Displays” or “Cloned Displays”.
§ From the “Resolution:” drop list, choose “1280x720”.
§ Click on “Advanced Settings”.
§ Select the “Monitor” tab.
§ Select a “Screen refresh rate:” of “60 Hertz” (60 Hz).
§ Apply the changes and close the Control Panel.
If all is well, your desktop monitor display should be mirrored in the Star
1200 displays. If the STAR eyewear does not mirror your desktop display,
go back through each of the above steps and correct the incorrect setting.
Regardless of the operating system being used, the following display
configuration is required:
• Mirrored or duplicate displays – the same image for your desktop
and video eyewear displays.
• Screen resolution, for both desktop and eyewear displays of
640x480, 800x600, 1024x768, or 1280 x 720.
• Refresh rate of 60 Hz.
