Warranty Coverage

Runco warrants its products to be free from defects in material and workmanship during the warranty period provided below.
If, in Runco’s sole determination, a product proves to be defective in material or workmanship during the warranty period,
Runco will repair the product, replace the product with a substantially similar new or like-new product, or refund a prorata
share of the purchase price (calculated based on the remainder of the warranty period and the then-current MSRP
product), if repair or replacement of the product is determined by Runco to not be feasible. Runco has sole discretion in
determining whether a same or like model is offered, and what constitutes a “substantially similar model.”

Length of Warranty

Runco products are warranted for two (2) years from the date of shipment from Runco. Lamps are warranted six (6) months
from the date of shipment or 1000 hours of use, whichever comes first. All other accessories, which include but are not limited
to, cables, remotes, carrying cases, lens cap and other peripherals sold with the Runco product, are warranted for ninety (90)
days from the date of the original shipment of the accessory.

Eligibility

This RuncoCare Standard Limited Warranty is valid only for the first customer who purchases the covered product from an
authorized Runco dealer or distributor. This warranty is not transferable. You may be required to provide proof of purchase in
order to receive warranty services.

RuncoCare Claim Procedure

In the event of a product defect, please follow the warranty claim procedure provided below:

1. The Customer is required to contact a Runco dealer or Runco Technical Support via email at [e-mail] or via
phone at (toll free) (800) 23RUNCO (800-237-8626). If the customer is located outside North America, call [phone]
554 in Europe for product service.

2. Be prepared to provide the date of purchase, the place of purchase, serial number, product model number, description of
the problem and troubleshooting steps already attempted.

3. Runco Technical Support staff will attempt to correct any minor issues that may be causing the problem. If Runco is
unable to resolve the problem through troubleshooting, a Return Material Authorization (RMA) number will be issued for the
exchange of the defective product if it is determined that the claim was made within the coverage period of the Standard
Limited Warranty.

4. If it is determined that the Standard Limited Warranty applies to the claim, the customer will need to return the defective
product to the Runco repair depot location specified by the Runco technical support representative. The customer will
need to properly package the defective product, consisting of the product only, and not include any accessories (e.g.,
cables, remotes, carrying cases, lens, lens cap and other peripherals) and return it to the Runco repair depot specified by
the technical support representative. It is the customer’s responsibility to properly package the hardware, include all
appropriate materials, and return it to the location specified by the Runco technical support department. The customer will
need to address and resolve any shipping damage claims directly with the shipping company.

5. The customer is responsible for providing a suitable box to ship the defective product to an authorized Runco repair depot.
Boxes may be purchased from a Runco technical support representative.

6. The customer is responsible for paying freight charges to ship the defective product to an authorized Runco repair depot.

7. For in-warranty repairs, Runco will pay freight charges to return the repaired/replacement product (which shall not include
accessories--e.g., cables, remotes, carrying cases, lens cap and other peripherals sold with the Runco product) to the
customer from the Runco repair depot.

m Any damage or dissatisfaction associated with latent images, “burnin,” or any other damage determined by Runco to be

the result of customer use patterns
n Any other cause, which does not relate to a product defect in material or workmanship

5. Removal, installation, and setup service charges are excluded from this Standard Limited warranty

6. Black uniformity issues or other LCD issues associated with usage outside the Runco recommended guidelines and
specifications for the product

7. Bright or dark sub pixels that are characteristic of LCD technology and considered by Runco to be acceptable and within
Runco’s manufacturing specifications. (See “Sub Pixel Policy,” below.)

8. Second day shipment delivery time and availability may vary based on origin and destination and Runco is unable to deliver
to PO Box and FPO Box addresses

Sub Pixel Policy

It is not uncommon for one or more sub pixels to become bright or dark during or after the manufacturing process. A bright
sub pixel is one that remains in the on position, and a dark sub pixel is one that appears black or off. The sub pixels are usually
hard to see and will not detract from the display quality or usability at normal viewing distance. The following are Runco’s
criteria for identifying bright or dark sub pixels that would be considered unacceptable: a) the number of bright or dark sub
pixels; b) the location of the bright or dark sub pixels; c) the color of the bright sub pixels; and d) the Runco model size. If sub
pixels have been identified as unacceptable by Runco the LCD will be deemed faulty and will be replaced if reported within the
warranty period. If there are issues with bright or dark sub pixels, gather the information listed above and call or email
[e-mail].

2 Runco LS-10d Installation/Operation Manual

Introduction

The LightStyle™ Series LS-10d Home Theater Projector and DHD Controller
encompasses Runco’s award-winning three-chip performance in an elegant, sleek
package. Feature rich, including advanced connectivity and the latest-generation video
processing, the LS-10d provides style and elegance to the most exacting custom
theaters.

Impressive, unique and unlike single-chip DLP™ implementations, no color wheel is used
in the LS-10d. Instead, it harnesses the power of three advanced 16:9 DMD’s™ and
12-degree mirror tilt for unsurpassed black level performance. The impressive brightness
is further bolstered by the improved contrast capabilities of the stylish LS-10d. This
reduces mechanical complexity and compromises to color spectrum purity.

The LS-10d comes with an external, all-digital signal processor/controller/scaler featuring
advanced ViVix IV™ video processing, superb scaling (up to 1080p) and aspect ratio
control. The LS-10d is enhanced further by significant horizontal and vertical lens shift
capability for maximum installation flexibility.

The LS-10d’s 16:9 native aspect ratio DMD array makes it ideal for widescreen viewing,
while its 3-chip, 1920 x 1080 native resolution produces crisp, crystal clear high-definition
images with richly saturated colors, deep black levels and natural, highly refined detail.

The LS-10d features Runco’s revolutionary new Personal Color Equalizer™ (PCE), which
allows color adjustment that includes those exactly defined by the cinematographer and
the color preferences of each individual viewer for each source.

In addition to Runco's proprietary Personal Color Equalizer, the LS-10d can also be paired
with Runco’s new CineGlide™ lens solution. Through an ingenious combination of
software, electronics and precision anamorphic optics, CineGlide provides
uncompromised widescreen reproduction of movies originally filmed in the “scope” 2:35:1
format. It 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 superwide 2.35:1, the image
simply gets wider while full screen height is maintained, eliminating useless black bars on
the top and bottom of the screen.

images will be noticeably reduced if light directly strikes the screen, such as when a shaft
of light from a window or floodlight falls on the image. Images may then appear washed
out and less vibrant.

➤

This is an important calculation in any projector installation as it determines whether or not
you have enough room to install your projector with a desired screen size and if your
image will be the right size for your screen.

You can quickly estimate the throw distance by taking the width of the screen and
multiplying it by the lens throw ratio; see Figure 3-1. The result of this calculation tells you
roughly how far back the projector should be positioned from the screen in order to
project a focused image large enough to fill the screen.

Due to its extraordinarily high level of video processing performance, the DHD Controller

➤

may distribute video signals with a perceptible level of audio latency. In order to easily
solve this issue, Runco recommends using the DHD Controller with a high-quality audio
receiver that has the ability to effectively synchronize audio and video signals.

Most mainstream audio receiver/switchers have the ability to synchronize the audio and
video to the Advanced Television Systems Committee (ATSC) prescribed tolerances.
According to the ATSC, the sound program should never lead the video program by more
than 15 milliseconds, and should never lag behind the video program by more than 45
milliseconds.

In addition, many video displays and A/V receivers introduce additional latency that needs
to be compensated for during the installation. Table 3-4 shows the amount of possible
audio latency given different signal input timings.

• Keep the ambient temperature constant and below 35°C (95°F). Keep the projector
away from heating and/or air conditioning vents. Changes in temperature may cause
drifts in the projector circuitry, which may affect performance.

• Keep the projector away from devices that radiate electromagnetic energy such as
motors and transformers. Common sources of these include slide projectors,
speakers, power amplifiers and elevators.

If the LS-10d is ceiling-mounted and the screen is significantly lower than the projector,
you can tilt the projector at a slight angle by adjusting the ceiling mount.

The projector can be rotated (side-to-side) up to 360 degrees and mounted without it
affecting performance. However, to ensure optimal performance of the lamp, limit the
front-to-back tilt of the projector to ±20 degrees; see Figure 3-6.

Configure Lens Motor Trigger on DHD Controller (Optional): The anamorphic lens

solution for the LS-10d maintains constant image height independent of the aspect ratio,
while using the full display resolution of the projector. It accomplishes this by moving the
anamorphic lens in front of the primary lens when widescreen material is being viewed.
When the viewer transitions back to 16:9 or 4:3 source material, the anamorphic lens
moves out of the light path.

Picture

Picture Use the controls in the Picture Menu to calibrate each DHD Controller input to achieve

➤

optimum picture quality.

The DHD Controller has been designed to incorporate setup and calibration standards
established by the Imaging Science Foundation (ISF). The ISF has developed carefully
crafted, industry-recognized standards for optimal video performance and has
implemented a training program for technicians and installers to use these standards to
obtain optimal picture quality from Runco video display devices. Accordingly, Runco
recommends that setup and calibration be performed by an ISF certified installation
technician.

All signal types require separate processing. Therefore, you need to calibrate each DHD
Controller input separately.

Note

1. When you change a picture quality setting, save the change to a
preset afterwards. Otherwise, the change will be lost when a
different input is selected. (Picture quality settings are saved for
each input separately.) For information about saving settings,
refer to Memory Presets on page 56.

2. For best results, Runco recommends that you set
ConstantContrast to Off before adjusting Brightness, Contrast
and other image quality settings in this menu (refer to
ConstantContrast on page 60). After you have completed the
initial calibration, set ConstantContrast to On if desired.

Y

Although it may be possible to obtain satisfactory picture quality using the naked eye and
regular program material, Runco recommends using an external test pattern source
(Ovation Multimedia, Digital Video Essentials or AVIA test DVD or equivalent) for best
results.

Connect your test pattern source to the input that you are calibrating and proceed as
follows. Perform the adjustments in the order listed here.

Brightness: On your external test pattern source, select a PLUGE pattern. (PLUGE is an
acronym for “Picture Line-Up Generation Equipment.”) Figure 4-2 shows a typical PLUGE

PLUGE patterns vary but generally consist of some combination of black, white and gray
areas against a black background. The example above includes two vertical bars and four
shaded boxes.

Select Brightness from the Picture menu and press ENTER. Adjust the brightness so that:

• The darkest black bars disappear into the background.

• The dark gray areas are barely visible.

• The lighter gray areas are clearly visible.

• The white areas are a comfortable level of true white.

• The image contains only black, gray and white (no color).

Contrast: On your external test pattern source, select a stepped, gray-bar pattern like the
one shown in Figure 4-3.

Tint: Tint or “hue” is essentially the ratio of red to green in the color portion of the image.
When tint is decreased, the image appears redder; when it is increased the image
appears greener.

Height: Select Height from the Input Position menu to change the projected image
height. Press to increase the height; press to decrease it.

Overscan/Overscan Mode: Overscan pushes the outside edge of the active picture
area of the video signal out beyond the edge of the display area.

Some television programs are produced based on the assumption that older television
sets may not display the outer edges of the broadcast picture area. Overscan effectively
trims away these inactive, outer edges and enlarges the remaining portion of the image to
fill the display area.

For HDTV, DVDs and other video sources, Overscan is generally not necessary or
desirable.

This control defines the amount of overscan applied to the image. The range is from
0 to 20. There are two overscan modes:

•In Crop mode, each increment adds a mask at the top, bottom, left and right edges of
the source image equal to 0.5% of the displayed horizontal resolution (1% total). A
setting of 10, for example, crops the image 5% on all sides or 10% total.

•In Zoom mode, each increment adds a factor to the scaling of the source image so
that the vertical and horizontal resolutions are 100% plus 1% increments of the size
determined by the aspect ratio function. A setting of 10, for example, zooms in on the
image 5% on all sides or 10% total.

Phase (RGB, Component or SCART sources): This control adjusts the phase of the
pixel sampling clock relative to the incoming signal. Adjust the phase when an RGB,
Component or SCART image still shows shimmer or “noise” after Tracking has been
optimized.

Adjust the Phase after adjusting Tracking (see below).

Tip

For best results, use a good test pattern such as a smooth gray consisting of a clear
pattern of black and white pixels, or a similar “half on, half off” graphic image. Adjust the
slidebar until the image stabilizes and each pixel is clearly defined. You may notice that
you can stabilize the image at more than one point. Use either setting in such cases.

Tracking (RGB, Component or SCART sources): Tracking determines the frequency
of the pixel sampling clock, indicated by the number of incoming pixels per line, so that all
pixels generated by a particular source are sampled.

Steady flickering or several soft vertical stripes or bands across the entire image indicates
poor pixel tracking. Proper pixel tracking helps ensure that the image quality is consistent
across the screen, that aspect ratio is maintained and that pixel phase (see above) can be
optimized.

Display Color: Use the Display Color settings to adjust the color balance at the DHD
Controller output. These settings are saved independently for each input and display
mode.

•Gain: Use the Gain controls to correct color imbalances in the bright areas of the
image. A good way to do this is to use a test pattern consisting mostly of solid white
areas, such as an 80 IRE “window” pattern. If the white areas contain traces of red (Pr),
green (Y) or blue (Pr), decrease the Gain for that color.

•Offset: Use the Offset controls to correct color imbalances in the dark areas of the
image. A good way to do this is to use a test pattern consisting mostly of dark gray
areas, such as a 30 IRE “window” pattern. If the gray areas contain traces of red (Pr),
green (Y) or blue (Pr), decrease the Offset for that color.

You must enter a passcode to access the Calibration menu.

58 Runco LS-10d Installation/Operation Manual

• Gamma: Select Gamma from the Display Color menu to choose a de-gamma curve.
Used correctly, the Gamma control can improve contrast while maintaining good
details for blacks and whites. If excess ambient light washes out the image and it
becomes difficult or impossible to see details in dark areas, lower the gamma setting to
compensate. This improves contrast while maintaining good details for blacks.
Conversely, if the image is washed out and unnatural, with excessive detail in black
areas, increase the setting.

•Lamp: Select Lamp from the Display Color menu to adjust the projector lamp
brightness.

• Power (230W or 260W): To supply a constant wattage to the lamp, select Power

(230W or 260W) from the Lamp menu to set the lamp power level. You can choose
to run the lamp as bright as possible (260 watts; this is the default setting) or you
can choose a lower setting (230 watts). Generally, lower lamp output prolongs the
life of the lamp, but decreases brightness.

• Color Temp: Select Color Temp from the Display Color menu to adjust the color
temperature. Color temperature establishes the “color of gray” by adjusting the 75%
white point to various color points.

What are “color points?” A “color point” is an x/y coordinate pair that defines a
color’s location on the standard CIE chromaticity graph, shown in Figure 4-7. (CIE
stands for “Commission Internationale de l’Éclairage” (International Commission on
Illumination), the organization responsible for color measurement and management
standards.)

(On) or disable (Off) ConstantContrast in the optical engine. ConstantContrast uses a
dynamic iris that modulates light to the DMD based on the actual content of the video
material. Runco recommends that you disable ConstantContrast before adjusting
Brightness, Contrast or other image settings.

• Color Gamut: Select Color Gamut from the Display Color menu to select a color
gamut (range) that may be different from the default color gamut.

Each setting defines the precise hue of each primary (red, green and blue) and
secondary (yellow, cyan and magenta) color component used to generate the millions
of colors produced in displays. Changing this setting relocates the “triangle” for
possible colors (see Figure 4-7). For example, changing the x/y coordinates for red
moves the color closer to either orange or violet, which in turn affects all displayed
colors having a red component.

• Hue/Saturation/Level: PCE provides the ability to define a custom color gamut in

terms of primary (red, green and blue) and secondary (yellow, cyan and magenta)
color hues, saturation and level (brightness).

Each control operates only on the color specified. Surrounding colors are linearly
interpolated based on their distance from each of these colors. In the CIE 1931 Yxy
coordinate system (see Figure 4-8), Hue rotates the color coordinates around the
white point, Saturation adjusts the coordinate's distance from white and Level
adjusts the luminance (Y) of the color relative to white.

• White Balance: To precisely adjust the white point associated with the custom
color gamut, choose White Balance from the PCE sub-menu. These controls

PRE

operate identically to the Gain controls in the Display Color menu (described on

The Input Image settings establish the “zero point” for the Picture
menu settings, whose values represent offsets from the Input
Image settings. For example, if you set Brightness to 10 in this
menu, setting Brightness to 10 in the Picture menu results in an
actual setting value of 20 (10+10).

62 Runco LS-10d Installation/Operation Manual

Input Color: The Input Color controls are similar to those in the Display Color menu (see
above), but adjust the color balance of the incoming signal. These settings are also saved
independently for each input and display mode.

• Gain/Offset (HD1, HD2 and Component/SCART inputs only): These controls
operate similarly to those in the Display Color menu (described on page 58), but affect
the Y, Pb and Pr signal components rather than the red, green and blue channels.

•Chroma Delay: use the Chroma Delay control to correct a mis-aligned image from a
composite video source. Chroma delay in an image causes color shifts to occur to the
left of the vertical edge transitions, producing artificial shadows or a “halo” effect. If
necessary, adjust this setting to eliminate them.

• Noise Filter: To apply noise filtering to the input signal, select Noise Filter from the
Input Color menu. The Noise Filter is useful for clearing up noisy images from 480i
video sources.

Y

Use the left- or right-arrow buttons to select the desired amount of noise reduction,
keeping in mind that higher settings (which reduce high frequencies) may also “soften”
the image.

Save ISF Night/Save ISF Day: Whenever you make a change to the ISF settings, you
should always save it. Select Save ISF Night or Save ISF Day from the Calibration menu to
do this.

Copy/Paste: You can copy and paste settings from one memory location to another.
This gives you a convenient starting point for creating a new preset based on an existing
one, to make the calibration process less time-consuming.

For example, you can use the Copy/Paste feature to:

• Apply settings from HDMI 1 to HDMI 2, or from HD1 to HD2.

• Calibrate an input for 720p source signals, then use those settings for 1080i sources.

• Duplicate ISF Night settings for a given source and signal format and save them in the
Custom 1 memory preset.

To use this feature, select Copy/Paste from the Calibration menu.

• Copy Settings: Select Copy Settings from the Copy/Paste menu to place the settings
for the current input source, signal format (resolution and frame rate) and memory
preset onto a “clipboard,” which is a temporary memory location. When you do, the

• The default setting, Auto, functions as follows:

• HDMI: If the Auxiliary Video Information (AVI) infoframe contains color space and/or

range data, the DHD Controller uses that information. Otherwise, for RGB sources,
the DHD Controller uses the RGB-Video color space. For component SDTV and
EDTV resolutions, REC601 is used. For other component video resolutions,
REC709 is used.

• RGB: If Hsync or Vsync signals are present, the DHD Controller uses the RGB-PC

color space. Otherwise, REC601 is used for SDTV and EDTV sources, and REC709
for all other sources.

• Component: For SDTV and EDTV resolutions, the DHD Controller uses the

REC601 color space. For all other resolutions, REC709 is used.

In most cases, the Auto setting determines the correct color space to use. If it does not,
you can force the DHD Controller to use a specific color space. Choose one of the
following:

• REC709 sets the color space matrix to that defined in ITU-R BT.709.

• REC601 sets the color space matrix to that defined in ITU-R BT.601.

• RGB-PC uses RGB color space and sets black at 0,0,0 RGB and white at
255,255,255 RGB, assuming an 8-bit image.

• RGB-Video uses RGB color space and sets black at 16,16,16 RGB and white at
235,235,235, assuming an 8-bit image, to correspond to the luminance values defined
in digital component standards.

This setting has no effect on the E-Mail Notification or Auto

• Film Mode: Use Film Mode to smooth out moving images from interlaced,
standard-definition (SD) sources. In most cases, the DHD Controller detects the proper
“pull-down” rate and vertical frequency. However, if your source is jittery and/or tearing
you may want to enable Film Mode 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.

6. External Control

In addition to using the DHD Controller front-panel keypad or remote control unit, there
are three methods of controlling the LS-10d and DHD Controller externally:

• Using a serial (RS-232) link to send ASCII commands and receive responses to those
commands.

• Using discrete infrared (IR) codes to program a third-party remote control unit.

• Using an HDMI connection to send Consumer Electronics Control (CEC) commands
from a BD player or other source component that supports CEC.

The following sections describe these methods.

Y

The DHD Controller uses a simple text-based control protocol to take requests from
control devices and to provide responses to such devices. This section describes how to
send control messages over a serial link between the DHD Controller and an
automation/control system or a PC running terminal emulation software.

To interface the LS-10d with an automation/control system or a PC running terminal
emulation software, connect it to the DHD Controller as shown in Figure 3-7. Connect
your control system or PC to the RS-232 input of the DHD Controller as shown in Figure
3-13.

Configure the RS-232 controller or PC serial port as follows: no parity, 8 data bits, 1 stop
bit and no flow control. Set the baud rate to 19200, to match that of the DHD Controller
RS-232 port.

• Commands are not case-sensitive.

• For a single command that takes no parameters, type the command followed by a
carriage return; for example, to set the aspect ratio to Letterbox, type
LETTERBOX <Enter>.

• For a single command that takes a parameter, type the command, a space or a
comma and the desired value followed by a carriage return; for example, to set the
brightness to -10, type BRIGHTNESS -10 <Enter> or
BRIGHTNESS,-10 <Enter>.

• You can also send a string of multiple commands on a single line, separated by
commas. For example, COMPOSITE,BRIGHTNESS 50,16:9 <Enter> switches to
the Composite video input, sets the brightness to 50 and sets the aspect ratio to 16:9.
Command strings can be up to 255 characters long.

6.1 Serial Communications

RS-232 Connection and Port Configuration

Serial Command SyntaxSerial commands to the DHD Controller take the following form:

Avoid combining the ON or POWER 1 commands with other commands

Note

Runco LS-10d Installation/Operation Manual 75

on a single line. After sending ON or POWER 1, allow at least five (5)
seconds for the DHD Controller to power up. If you have enabled the
ISF splash screen (refer to Splash Configure on page 64), allow 15
seconds for the DHD Controller to power up.

Once it does, it will accept and properly execute multiple serial
commands.

External Control

Table 6-1 lists the RS-232 command set. The “Parameter (min/max)” column shows the
valid parameter ranges, or “NA” for commands that take no parameters.

When you enter a valid command, the DHD Controller executes it and acknowledges it
with a plus sign on the command line (+ >). When you enter an invalid command – one
that is misspelled or followed by values outside the valid range for that command – the
DHD Controller ignores it and returns a minus sign (- >).

Using Discrete IR Codes

IR Command Protocol The IR control codes have the following characteristics:

The DHD Controller accepts commands in the form of IR signals that conform to the
Phillips RC5 protocol. Each DHD Controller remote control button has an RC5 control
code associated with it.

You can use these codes to program a third-party, “universal” remote control unit to work
with the DHD Controller. These third-party products usually come with a computer
software application for this purpose. For more information, consult the documentation
provided with the remote control unit.

➤

• Each code consists of 14 bits:

• Two (2) start bits (always 1);

•A toggle bit. This bit is inverted every time a key is released and pressed again. This
allows the DHD Controller to distinguish between a button that remains down and
one that is pressed repeatedly.

• Five (5) address bits. The default address is 17 (binary 10001). To change it, select
Remote Code from the Miscellaneous menu (in the Service menu) and follow the
steps given on page 70.

• Six (6) data bits.

• The carrier frequency is 36 kHz, with the modulated pulses having a 25% duty cycle.

• Commands are sent at a maximum rate of 9 Hz.

6.3 Using HDMI CEC Messages

CEC Command List Table 6-3 lists the CEC commands supported by the DHD Controller.

The DHD Controller accepts and can respond to CEC command messages from a disc
player, satellite receiver or DVR/set-top box via an HDMI connection. Using CEC, the DHD
Controller can perform the following actions:

• Turn itself and the projector on and select the correct input when the source
component initiates playback of a disc or recorded program.

• Turn the source component on when you switch to its corresponding input on the DHD
Controller.

• Turn the source component off when the LS-10d system is turned off (unless the
source component is in playback mode).

• Change its OSD language when a similar change is made at the source.

To use CEC, connect your CEC-compatible sources to the HDMI inputs on the DHD
Controller. Set the CEC option to On (refer to CEC on page 71). Additional steps may be
needed to enable CEC at the source. Refer to the documentation for your source device
for more information.
