Image warping
•
Soft edge blending
•
Colour balance and matching
•
Masks
For full details on achieving the effects of these features please read the
CompactDesigner/CompactControl User Manual.

Connecting the CompactView SX25+I
Connect the Control PC (running CompactDesigner or CompactControl) to the projectors
‘Control chain In’ port. The supplied 6 lead cable plugs into the Control PC’s serial port using a
RJ12 6 pin to serial DB-9 female adapter.
Connecting multiple projectors
Multiple projectors may be connected together in a ‘daisy chain’ by using the input and output
ports on each projector. From the first projector, another 6 lead cable connects between the
‘Control Chain Out’ port and the ‘Control Chain In’ port of the second projector. This chain can
be extended up to the theoretical limit of 255 projectors in a single chain.
