Runco VX-33D operation manual and ISF Day/Night presets page

Operation

Triggers: Select Triggers from the Service menu to configure the 12-volt trigger outputs. You can assign one or more trigger outputs to each aspect ratio. Those triggers are then activated by selecting that aspect ratio.

If your projector is equipped with the Runco CineWide with AutoScope system, assign at least one trigger output (the same one to which the lens motor is connected) to the Cinema and Virtual Cinema aspect ratios.

Miscellaneous: Select Miscellaneous from the Service menu to set the following options:

•Language: Select Language from the Miscellaneous menu and press the up- or down-arrows to select the OSD Language (English, Français, Deutsch, Español or Italiano).

•OSD Timer: Select OSD Timer from the Miscellaneous menu to set the OSD Timer, which controls how long the menus remain on-screen after selecting them. Select from 5 to 60 seconds, in one-second increments. Or, set the timer to 0 (disabled) if you want the menus to remain on-screen indefinitely.

•Film Mode: Use Film Mode to smooth out moving images from interlaced, standard-definition (SD) sources. In most cases, the VX-33d detects the proper “pull-down” rate and vertical frequency. However, if your source is jittery and/or tearing you may wish to enable Film Mode (ON) to ensure stable processing for that source.

•CUE (Chroma Upsampling Error) Correction: Some DVD players use MPEG decoders that do not correctly “upsample” the 4:2:0 format chroma information on the DVD to the 4:2:2 or 4:4:4 format required by the video encoder of the display device.

This so-called “chroma bug” sometimes causes streaky or spiky horizontal lines running through the chroma channel. It is most noticeable in static, interlaced scenes and on diagonal edges (especially red ones). Set CUE to On to correct this issue.

•Motion Threshold: The Motion Threshold determines the difference between a pixel and its corresponding value in the previous field or frame that must be exceeded for the pixel to be considered moving.

Increase the Motion Threshold if the image appears excessively noisy or if moving objects appear blurred. Decrease it to reduce or eliminate artifacts caused by deinterlacing errors.

•Altitude: Select Altitude from the Miscellaneous menu to control the operation of the projector’s cooling fan.

In most cases, the default setting (Normal) will maintain the correct operating temperature. If the lamp frequently turns off due to overheating, or in certain high-altitude operating environments, you may need to change this setting to High.

System Reset: To reset ALL projector and controller settings (including image settings) back to their factory defaults, choose System Reset from the Service menu.

A confirmation message appears, reminding you to save your settings before you perform the reset, so that you can restore them afterwards. If you have done this, select Confirm to continue with the reset. Otherwise, click Back to cancel.

This action is not undoable. Proceed with caution! Before you Caution perform a System Reset, save your “Custom” ISF presets (page 56)

and ISF Day/Night presets (page 58).

Restore Saved Settings: Following a System Reset, select Restore Saved Settings, then select Yes to apply all previously-saved settings to the projector and DHD Controller.
