Controls and Functions

1.PROJECTION LENS

The inside of the lens barrel is threaded to accommodate a standard, 72-mm lens filter. For example, with a smaller screen you can install a neutral-density filter to reduce the overall light output.

2.RUNCO LOGO

The logo can be rotated to match the projector orientation: inverted (ceiling-mounted) or upright. To rotate the logo, grip it at the sides, pull it away from the projector and rotate it 180 degrees.

3.EXHAUST VENT

Warm air exits the projector through this vent. Ensure that it is not blocked.

4.INTAKE VENT

Internal fans draw cool air into the projector through this vent.

5.CEILING MOUNTING HOLES

Use these to attach the ceiling bracket (if needed) to the projector.

6.CABLE OPENING

Pass cables through this opening.
