► Close any open windows or message balloons and then connect the eyewear’s video
connector to a graphics port on your PC.
► Now would be good time to remove the clear protective film off the lenses and outside face of
the display.
Your iWear VR920 video eyewear may display a blank blue screen. This is normal as your graphics
setting are likely not configured for a second display and/or a compatible resolution.

Configure your Graphic Card
►
Open your graphic card’s control panel
► For Windows XP:
Right-click on the desktop and select “Properties”.
In the Display Properties window, select the “Settings” tab.
In the Settings, press the “Advanced” button.
► For Windows Vista:
Right-click on the desktop and select “Personalize”.
From the Control Panel’s Personalization window, select “Display Settings”.
In the Display Settings window, press the “Advanced Settings…” button.
From here, you should be able to access the control panel for your graphics card. The two most common
brands, ATI and Nvidia, may display a tab to access their brand specific control panel.
The look and command options provided by your graphics card’s control panel will vary based upon its
make and model. You may have to refer to your graphics card’s manual for detailed instructions on
accessing the correct configuration options.
If you are using a single graphics port, as in Cable Option 1, skip the following Display Configuration step
and proceed to setting your screen resolution. If you are using dual port graphics card, you must enable a
second display through your graphics card’s control panel.
► Open your graphics card control panel’s Display Configuration controls.
► Enable both your desktop monitor and the iWear VR920 display monitor to show the same
image. This is often referred to as the “Clone” mode.
Tip: If your video card’s control panel offers a configuration wizard option, decline it and choose to
manually select the “Clone” configuration option.
Tip: Improved performance and compatibility can sometimes be achieved by setting your eyewear as
the primary monitor.
Now let’s set the resolution. This must be set correctly for both single and dual port graphics cards.
The eyewear supports resolutions of 1024 x 764, 800 x 600 and its native resolution of 640 x 480. If your
display resolution is set to 1024 x 768 or 800 x 600, the video scaling engine will automatically adjust it to
its native resolution.
