For Quadro boards with a stereo connector, use the 3-pin mini-din to 1/8” stereo cable that comes with the 3D Vision kit to connect the graphics board to the emitter. This cable provides a direct connection from the GPU to the glasses to make sure they are switching at the correct time.

Note: 3D Vision glasses kits sold in Europe and Asia do not currently contain this cable. For Europe, an upgrade kit from PNY is available (P/N: QSP-3DV-KIT) through the Quadro channel. Please contact your Quadro distributor or contact NVIDIA support if you need more information.

Open the NVIDIA Control Panel and enable the OpenGL stereo display method in the “Manage 3D Settings” tab:

	When connecting to a 3D Vision-Ready LCD, Projector or CRT: For boards with the stereo connector, select “On-board DIN connector (with NVIDIA IR Emitter)” and plug in the 3 pin mini-din to 1/8” stereo cable that came with your 3D Vision glasses kit. For boards without the mini-din select “Generic Active Stereo (with NVIDIA IR Emitter)”. Note: If using a 120Hz LCD, make sure the display refresh rate is set at 110Hz or 120Hz. When connecting to a 3D capable DLP TV: Select “3D DLP Display (with NVIDIA IR Emitter)”
	Turn on stereo under the Stereo-Enable entry
	On Windows Vista/Win7 Verify that the 3D Stereoscopic Driver is turned off.
