28 MBOX ® REMOTE USER MANUAL
Basic Mode
Setup of Output and Keystone/Warp
In Basic Mode, the first step to configuring the output is to select the number of outputs that each physical video
output on the Mbox server computer is using. Depending on the computer used, each Mbox server can have up to
two (2) physical video outputs. Through the use of multi-head adapters, each of these video outputs can be split into
up to three (3) outputs. (For this purpose, use a dual/triple head adapter product such as Matrox TripleHead2GO.)
Even if you are not using a multi-head adapter, these settings are required to configure a keystone or warp setup.
To set Output and Keystone/Warp:
Step 1. Select Identity 1 at left column of the Projection Editor window. This should correspond to the first output of
your Mbox server. With an Identity selected, all configuration changes made in the Output Setup pane will
apply only to that output of the server. The other output (if applicable - e.g., in Pan or Dual mode) must be
configured separately by selecting the other Identity.
At the bottom of the Projection Editor window, you can enter a custom name for the currently selected item.
Step 2. Click Configure button to open the Output Setup pane. This pane shows the current Screen Size
(equivalent to the FullScreen Mode resolution on the Setup tab in the Mbox software) for the physical video
output of the Mbox server. Below this you will see a box for overlap, a pop-up to select the multihead
arrangement of the output, and if the Mbox software is using a Panoramic mode, a checkbox labeled
"Combined"
Step 3. Using pop-up menu, select the number of multihead outputs that this physical video output is split to (1,
2x1, 3x1, or 2x2). If there is an overlap required, enter that value (in pixels) in the box. The "Combined"
checkbox should be checked if these outputs will be blended and overlapped with outputs from the other
physical video output of the Mbox server (in panoramic modes only). When the settings are correct, click
OK button.
Note: This explanation will proceed using a multihead 2x1 setup. Your particular system may be configured
differently.
