1. Read these instructions.
2. Keep these instructions.
3. Heed all warnings.
4. Follow all instructions.
5. Do not use this apparatus near water.
CAUTION:
SERVICE PERSONNEL.
This symbol is intended to alert the user to the presence of
uninsulated “dangerous voltage” within the product’s enclosure
that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric
shock.
This symbol is intended to alert the user to the presence of
important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the
literature accompanying the appliance.

6. Clean only with a dry cloth.
7. Do not block any of the ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
8. Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that
produce heat.
9. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider
than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the third prong is
provided for your safety. When the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for the replacement of
the obsolete outlet.
10. Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles and the point
where they exit from the apparatus.
11. Only use the attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
12. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket or table specified by the manufacturer or sold with the apparatus.
When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus to avoid injury from tip-over.
13. Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.
14. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in
any way, such as power supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus,
the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.
15. The +12V trigger only outputs 12Vdc signal for triggering. Do not connect to any other power input or output. This could
cause damage to this unit.
16. Keep the packing material in case the equipment should ever need to be shipped.
17. The lamp becomes extremely hot during operation. Allow the projector to cool down for approximately 45 minutes prior to
removing the lamp assembly for replacement.

Introduction
Note
The RS-900 and RS1100 family of Home Theater Projectors offer the astounding picture
quality and versatility heretofore associated with more expensive projectors. Their
1920
x 1080, native-resolution DLP light engine features Runco's powerful SuperOnyx™
technology for bright, pristine high-definition (1080p) images.
Contrast ratio and dynamic range extend to new heights with Runco's exclusive
Reflectance Volume Regulation™ (RVR), an electronically-controlled iris system. The
RS1100 takes this technology a step further with DynamicBlack™, which analyzes the
program material and adjusts the iris automatically, in real time to maximize contrast and
dynamic range at all times.
All models feature a precision optics package with electronic lens shift. The standard
RS-900/RS1100 projection lens has a throw range of from 1.87 to 2.20 times the screen
width. The RS1100
from which to choose offering throw distances ranging from 1.06 to 4.80 times the screen
width. Electronic focus and zoom controls further simplify installation and setup of an
RS1100
The RS-900/RS1100's illumination system provides two light intensity levels to allow
maximum flexibility for screen size, ambient light conditions, brightness and contrast
balance, and lamp life preservation. It also has a newly refined cooling system, which
increases efficiency and reduces noise levels.
The RS-900/RS1100 has been engineered to comply with Imaging Science Foundation™
(ISF) standards for maximum home theater image quality. Runco's sophisticated
parameters for white balance and color gamut control have also been implemented for
precise balance of gray scale and color. The RS-900/RS1100 incorporates
Runco-proprietary de-interlacing technology that provides exceptional scaling and
film-to-video (3:2 pulldown) conversion for the most artifact-free images possible.

1.3 Description, Features and Benefits
For uncompromising widescreen reproduction of movies originally filmed in the “scope”
(2.35:1) format, the RS-900/RS1100 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
RS-900/RS1100 is CineWide with AutoScope™, an enhanced, remote-controlled
motorized version of CineWide.
CineWide requires the use of a 2.35:1 or similar aspect ratio superwide
format screen.
Discrete IR and RS-232 control make custom installation seamless, while discrete source
and aspect ratio selection accommodate any automation control system.

To install batteries in the remote control, push the
battery cover and slide it off. Install the two AAA
batteries with the correct polarity and then
replace the cover.
Y
• Do not mix an old battery with a new one or different types of batteries.
• If you will not use the remote control for a long time, remove the batteries to avoid
damage from battery leakage.
• Make sure that there is nothing obstructing the infrared beam between the remote
control and the IR receiver on the projector.
• If the effective range of the remote control decreases, or it stops working, replace the
batteries with new ones.
• The remote control may fail to operate if the infrared remote sensor is exposed to bright
sunlight or fluorescent lighting.
• Ambient conditions may possibly impede the operation of the remote control. If this
happens, point the remote control at the projector, and repeat the operation.
