Operation
44 Runco CL-810 Series Owner’s Operating Manual
PRELIMINARY
Amplitude Adjust: The Amplitude Adjust menu allows you to fine-tune the
curently-selected image aspect ratio by stretching it horizontally or vertically, in small
increments. This can be useful if your projector is equipped with an anamorphic lens.
The Horizontal control adjusts the image width while keeping the height constant.
Similarly, the Vertical control adjusts the image height while keeping the width constant.
Horizontal Masking (CineWide CL-810 versions only): To achieve the proper image
geometry with the secondary anamorphic lens, select Horizontal Masking from the Set Up
menu. Then, use the or button to change the native aspect ratio of the display, in
small increments.
Video Black Level: This control compensates for incoming elevated black levels present
in certain video signals, and ensures that blacks in the display are neither “crushed”
(where dark grays appear black) nor excessively elevated (where blacks appear dark
gray). By default, the projector automatically determines the best setting according to the
type of incoming video signal:
• 0 IRE: Used for DVD output with “enhanced black,” SECAM, most PAL standards and
Japanese NTSC.
• 7.5 IRE: Used for most NTSC video signals.
For some types of video, you may want to override the setting. Generally, if black appears
crushed when brightness = 30, choose “0 IRE.” If black appears excessively elevated, use
“7.5 IRE.”
Lamp Power: Select Lamp Power from the Set Up Menu to adjust the lamp output level.
You can choose to run the lamp as bright as possible (250W; this is the default setting) or
you can choose the lower (200W) setting. Generally, lower lamp output can prolong the
life of the lamp, but decreases brightness.
Remote Control: The Remote Control menu shows you the primary and secondary
infrared (IR) codes to which the CL-810 will respond. The Primary IR code is permanently
set to +20. The secondary IR code is also +20.
You can change the secondary IR code if either:
• Another device in the theater (a DVD player, for example) is responding to commands
from the CL-810 remote control in ways that are unpredictable or undesirable.
• You have multiple CL-810 projectors and want to control them independently, as
opposed to broadcasting commands from a single remote to all of them. In this
scenario, you can use multiple remotes programmed to use different IR codes. Or, you
can use a single remote and change the IR code as needed to address a specific
projector.
When you change the secondary IR code, the remote sends that code instead of the
primary IR code.
To simultaneously change the secondary IR code and synchronize that remote with a
projector, point the remote at the projector, then press and hold and simultaneously
for five seconds. The Remote Control edit window, shown at right, appears. Type a new,
two-digit code.
The Remote Control menu is read-only and need not be visible in
order to change the secondary IR code.
