around 10% to 20% overlap are usually around 180%. In other words, not
quite 2x zooming (since that would give no overlap at all).
Figure ‘a’ shows the original image and ‘b’ shows the two zoomed images.
Note that the two images are at different ‘Pan’ positions – i.e. they are
zoomed into different areas of the image – the left and right-hand sides.
Figure ‘c’ then shows the images re-combined as they should eventually
appear on your projection screen.
To produce the above effect, you’ll now need to change some settings on the
units:
1. On a dual-channel unit, set the unit into ‘Independent’ mode – this runs
both scaling engines independently as 1A and 2B.
2. Go into the ‘Adjust outputs’ menu and ensure that both scaling engines
are outputting the same resolutions. (Hint: use Toggle 1 / 2 (Shift-1) to
switch between 1A and 2B on the C2-7000 series.)
3. Go into the ‘Adjust windows’ menu and ensure that both scalers are set
to the same ‘Source’, which needs to be your original video signal (e.g.
from a DVD player).
4. For Output 1 (1A), change the ‘Zoom’ value to 190%, with H pan% of
0% (fully left).
5. For Output 2 (2B), change the ‘Zoom’ value to 190%, with H pan% of
100% (fully right).
If your projectors are properly setup and connected, with the scaler active with
the above settings, you should now have a very rough overlap of the two
images on a single projection screen. Where they do overlap you will see an
over-bright part of the image, and most probably some overlapping errors.

Edge-blending activation
Edge blending is activated in the ‘Adjust keyers’ part of the menu, as follows:
1. Go into the ‘Adjust keyers’ menu.
2. For Output 1 (1A), change ‘Edge blend’ from ‘None’ to ‘R’ – so that it’s
right-hand edge is blended.
3. For Output 2 (2B), change ‘Edge blend’ from ‘None’ to ‘L’ – so that it’s
left-hand edge is blended.
You will also notice that some red and green lines have appeared. The red
lines indicate the edge of the screen, and the green lines indicate the start or
end of the blend. If these lines are not present, change ‘E.blend guides’ to
‘Auto’ or ‘On’. ‘Auto’ makes them appear only whilst you are in the ‘Adjust
keyers’ menu. ‘On’ forces them to be on all the time.

Edge-blending overlap / size
The blend size needs to be the same on both keyers, and is related to both
the output resolution (‘Output res’ in ‘Adjust outputs’) and the zoom value
(‘Zoom’ in ‘Adjust windows’).
