I think I see only one of the "sensor" panels in place at a time; are there 2 in use when checking synch?  |  IP: Logged Jerry Chase Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1068 From: Margate, FL, USA Registered: Nov 2000 posted 02-08-2001 09:11 AM                       John, why do you show stuff like this? You know you make me drool all over my keyboard when you show me two projector 3-D!  |  IP: Logged John Eickhof Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 588 From: Wendell, ID USA Registered: Jan 2000 posted 02-08-2001 11:53 AM                        William, I think what you are referring to as a sensor panel is the polaroid filter in the projection beam? If so, there both in place in front of the respective projectors (left & right0 The synch test device has a rotating disk with clear & opaque strips, it spins at a speed that is in synch with shutter speed of 1440 rpm, when you look through the viewer on the scope you are looking through this strobe wheel and a set of polaroid filters just like in front of the projectors that are split horizontally with the left on top and the right on bottom. There are vertical lines that strobe through and if they are in alignment, the shutters of both machines are in perfect synch, if the lines are broken or wavey, the shutters are not in synch and eye strain can result to the audience. I hope this explains it a little better. Jerry...Be careful! Saliva is not condusive to proper computer operation!!!!
