Introduction

The Reflection™ VX-4000d and VX-5000d incorporate Runco’s exclusive Enhanced GEN 3™ engineering advancements to make more efficient use of optical light engine design. This results in greater light output and dramatically increases contrast ratio.

Among the advances Runco has developed are a sophisticated color balancing system and Reflectance Volume Regulation™ (RVR™), which provides the perfect balance of black and white levels.

These engineering achievements are combined with lens choices featuring world-class optics and lens shift versatility. The resulting images are superb. In fact, the VX-5000d can easily surpass the black levels of film projectors!

Included with the VX-4000d/VX-5000d is Runco’s Digital High Definition (DHD™) Controller, featuring advanced Vivix II™ video processing, superb scaling and aspect ratio control. Runco’s exclusive LiveLink™ DVI cable system circuitry is integrated into the projector to preserve HD signal quality over long runs.

The VX-4000d produces an impressive 1600 ANSI lumens of light output (CSMS™ light output of 16.9 to 29.2 ft-Lamberts). The VX-5000d produces 1700 ANSI lumens of light output (CSMS light output of 17.2 to 29.7 ft-Lamberts).

This advanced design provides pure digital connections from input to light engine for absolutely stellar pictures. In addition, Runco’s multiple aspect ratio control includes its unique VirtualWide™ mode for viewing standard video formats in widescreen without loss of image quality.

For uncompromising widescreen reproduction of movies originally filmed in the “scope” (2.35:1) format, the VX-4000d/VX-5000d can be equipped with Runco’s patent-pending CineWide™ technology, a combination of software, electronics and high-quality anamorphic optics. CineWide maintains constant vertical height on the screen just as in a movie theater. When a viewer transitions from 1.78:1 (16:9) program material to 2.35:1, the image simply gets wider while full height is maintained. Also available with the VX-4000d/VX-5000d is CineWide with AutoScope™, an enhanced, remote-controlled motorized version of CineWide.

Discrete IR and RS-232 control make custom installation seamless, while discrete source and aspect ratio selection accommodate any automation control system.
