Configuring your 3Dlabs Graphics Accelerator Card for
Stereo Viewing

If your Wildcat VP Graphics Accelerator Card is equipped with a VESA standard stereo sync signal
connector (3-pin mini-DIN), then it supports 3D stereo viewing. To view stereoscopic images on your
Windows PC, you will need to connect the appropriate equipment such as stereo glasses to the 3-pin
mini-DIN connector on the card.

For optimal stereo viewing, it is recommended that you use a monitor with a screen refresh frequency of
at least 100 Hertz and you turn off all fluorescent lighting before viewing stereo images to prevent a
possible headache.

Note: Stereo viewing is only available under Windows 2000 and Windows XP systems.

To set up and configure stereo viewing:

1. Connect the stereo hardware to the round stereo connector on the card. See the documentation

that came with your stereo hardware.

2. Click the desktop with your right mouse button (or left click if you’ve altered the default

mouse setup) to display the panel.
