RuncoCare™ Standard Claim Procedure

• In the event of a product defect, please follow the claim procedure provided below: A. Register your product if you have not yet done so. Visit http://www.runco.com/support/product-registration/ to

register the product. B. Contact your original authorized dealer or distributor who sold the product. C. The dealer/distributor will contact Runco Technical Support via email at support@runco.com or via phone at 1-800-

23-RUNCO (1-800-237-8626).

• The dealer/distributor will provide to Runco proof of purchase, serial number, product model number, description of the problem and any troubleshooting steps already attempted.

• Runco’s technical support staff will attempt to assist the dealer/distributor in troubleshooting any technical issues that might be causing the product to malfunction. 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 is covered by the warranty. Once an RMA has been created, RMA status is available at serviceorders@runco.com.

• If an RMA is issued, the dealer or customer will need to return the defective product to the Runco repair depot location specified by the Runco technical support representative. The dealer or customer will need to properly package the defective product in a suitable shipping container consisting of the product only, and not include any accessories (e.g., cables, remotes, carrying cases, lens, lens cap and other peripherals). Boxes may be purchased from a Runco technical support representative.

• The dealer or customer is responsible for paying freight charges and insurance to ship the defective product to the Runco repair depot location. If there are any shipping damages, the dealer or customer will need to address and resolve any shipping damage claims directly with the shipping company.

• Runco will not accept a returned product unless an RMA has been issued by Runco.

• For in-warranty repairs, Runco will pay freight charges to return the repaired/replacement product to the dealer/distributor from the Runco repair depot. For select countries or geographies Runco will ship via an economy express service. Return delivery time and availability may vary based on origin and destination, and Runco is unable to deliver to PO Box and FPO Box addresses.

• Note: in the 48 contiguous United States, other options for on-site service or advance exchange for the product may apply, if you purchased the Runco PremierCare™ Service Plan.

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.

Specifically, 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.

Offering the best in high-end luxury projection, the new Signature Cinema™ Series SC-50d/SC-60d Private Cinema Projector and DHD Controller expands Runco’s most prestigious line of custom-built personal cinema projectors. The SC-50d and SC-60d join Runco’s legendary SC-1 and offer the best cinematic experience available for the most sophisticated private cinemas.

Boasting exceptional features and capability, the Runco SC-50d/SC-60d can be upgraded to offer future-proof 3D projection using active shutter glasses.

The Signature Cinema™ Series SC-50d/SC-60d Private Cinema Projector and DHD Controller offers exceptional performance with a state-of-the-art product that provides an extraordinary cinematic experience. The Signature Cinema experience surpasses even the most renowned public theaters because the product and room are custom-built with the finest components to exactly match an owner’s specifications.

The SC-50d employs a highly-efficient illumination system consisting of two, 200-watt HPM lamps, which offer brightness and redundancy. The SC-60d is equipped with dual 350-watt HPM lamps for even higher brightness. With either product model, you can replace a lamp without powering down the projector.

Combined with the unique and flexible engine design, the SC-50d/SC-60d provides better, richer color performance for pristine color accuracy. These benefits combine into a brilliant image that provides a spectacular color gamut and contrast, as well as unmatched color brightness, even on the largest screen sizes.

For unparalleled reproduction of Hollywood’s 2.35:1 CinemaScope standard, the SC-50d/SC-60d is available with Runco’s legendary CineWide™ with AutoScope™ technology. Selecting from multiple lens options that allow the flexibility for seamless integration into the most sophisticated personal cinemas, each SC-50d/SC-60d projector is custom-built to suit the exact requirements specified for every client. The SC-50d/SC-60d features 1080p HD native resolution 3-chip system for the finest projection image and 16:9 native aspect ratio to match all digital programming including seamlessly switching aspect ratios for both 2D and 3D content for all media, including broadcast, film, sports and gaming.

Installation

Proper installation of your projector will ensure the quality of your display. Whether you are installing a projector temporarily or permanently, you should take the following into account to ensure your projector performs optimally.

It is a common practice in custom audio/video installations to conceal cables by running them through walls.

If you are installing an SC-50d/SC-60d concurrently with a 3D Upgrade Kit – or plan to upgrade the SC-50d/SC-60d in the future to provide 3D projection capability – and are running cables through walls, you will need to run three cables from the projector to the other projection system components: two (2) HDMI cables and one serial control cable (typically Category 5 or 4-wire telephone cable).

For more information on 3D installations, refer to the SC-50d/SC-60d 3D Upgrade Kit Installation/Operation Manual.

Throw Distance Throw distance is the distance measured from the front of the projector to the screen.

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.

Estimating Throw Distance

Throw Distance (TD) = Screen Width (w) x Lens Throw Ratio

Proper placement of the projector relative to the screen will yield a rectangular, perfectly-centered image that completely fills the screen.

Ideally, the projector should be positioned perpendicular to the screen and in such a way that the lens center is aligned with either the top or bottom edge of the screen area, and centered horizontally. See Figure 3-2.

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 3-5 shows the amount of possible audio latency given different signal input timings.

Ventilation If you are mounting the SC-50d/SC-60d in an enclosure, leave at least 10 inches

(250 mm) of space on the left and right sides between it and surrounding objects, as shown in Figure 3-6. This allows heat to disperse, maintaining the proper operating temperature.

Other Considerations Other considerations and tips that can help improve your installation:

PRE

• 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.

3. Secure the Anamorphic Lens Holder to the plate using the Hex Bolts/Washers (item #6) and Yaw/X Adjustment Levers that you removed in Step 1.

4. Use the Lens Mounting Screws to attach the Lens Adapter Ring (item #1) to the Pitch Adjustment Yoke (item #2); see Figure 3-24. (Use the round, threaded holes on the yoke.)

5. Use the Height/Y Adjustment T-Screws/Washers (item #3), Pitch Adjustment T-Screws/Washers (item #4) and T-Nuts (item #9) to attach the Pitch Adjustment Yoke and Lens Adapter Ring to the Anamorphic Lens Holder. The Yoke should be

as close to the primary lens as possible.

6. Attach the lens to the Lens Adapter Ring by threading it clockwise.

CineWide with AutoScope 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.

To configure the lens motor trigger on the DHD Controller for proper AutoScope operation:

1. Project a 2.35:1 aspect ratio test pattern or other image on the screen.

2. On the DHD Controller remote control or front panel, press MENU.

3. Select Service from the Main Menu and enter the Service Menu passcode.

Note

4. Select Tri gg er s from the Service menu.

5. Assign the trigger output to which the lens motor is connected to the Cinema and Virtual Cinema aspect ratios. This enables the lens motor to move the anamorphic lens into position (in front of the primary lens) when either aspect ratio is selected.

6. Select the Cinema or Virtual Cinema aspect ratio to move the anamorphic lens into position, if it isn’t already. To do this, press CINEMA or V-CINE on the DHD Controller remote control (Figure 2-5), or press or repeatedly with no menus visible on-screen.

You must enter a passcode to access the Service menu for the first time after turning on the system.

When the height is properly set, tighten the Height Adjustment T-Screws to secure the lens in place.

Adjusting the Pitch (Angle): Next, angle the lens to even out any top-to-bottom pincushion distortion. To do this, loosen the Pitch Adjustment T-Screws (directly below the Height/Y Adjustment T-Screws) on either side of the lens to allow it to pivot freely. Then, adjust the anamorphic lens angle so that the projected image is rectangular:

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

IMINAR

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.

PRE

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

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 and display mode separately.) For information about saving settings, refer to Memory Presets on page 62.

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 70). After you have completed the initial calibration, set ConstantContrast to On if desired.

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 - Common Settings: Use the Display Color - Common Settings 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.

• Gamma: Select Gamma from the Display Color - Common Settings 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.

• Mode: With the SC-50d/SC-60d, two Gamma adjustment modes are available:

Simple or Advanced. The two modes are mutually exclusive; when you select the Simple mode, the Advanced selection in the Gamma menu is grayed out. Likewise, when you select Advanced, the Simple selection is grayed out.

• Simple: Use the Simple Gamma control to perform gamma correction at the display

according to a simple power law gamma function. The value chosen here corresponds to the power variable in this equation:

• Color Temp: Select Color Temp from the Display Color - Common Settings 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.)

• Color Gamut: Select Color Gamut from the Display Color - Common Settings 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.

Associated x/y Values

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

• Power: To supply a constant wattage to the lamps, select Power from the Lamp

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

PRE

Note

The Lamp Power setting affects both lamps.

• SatCo (Yellow Notch Filter): Select SatCo from the Display Color - Projector Settings menu to enable (Off) or disable (On) the yellow notch filter in the projector. The Off setting produces a wider color gamut, while the On setting produces higher brightness.

Page 86

Operation

•ConstantContrast: Select ConstantContrast from the Display Color - Projector Settings menu to enable (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, or if you change the RVR setting (see below) to something other than the default value.

•RVR: Use the RVR control to increase or decrease the Reflectance Volume Regulation setting. RVR lets you adjust the aperture or iris size (the physical opening through the lens; similar to an “f-stop” on a camera). Doing so allows you to optimize brightness and contrast according to the amount of ambient light in the viewing area.

Use a lower setting (larger aperture = higher brightness) for rooms with a lot of ambient light. Use a higher setting (smaller aperture = higher contrast) for more “theater-like” viewing conditions (little or no ambient light).

Note

Input Image: The Input Image controls are functionally similar to those in the Picture menu (refer to page 56), but are accessible only by entering the Calibration menu passcode.

Note

IMINAR

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

PRE

operate similarly to those in the Display Color - Common Settings menu (described on page 65), 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.

You cannot use ConstantContrast and RVR at the same time (both controls affect the aperture size, in different ways). Generally, using RVR to set the total image brightness produces more satisfying results than using ConstantContrast.

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).

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.

Operation

• Remote Network Control: Select Remote Network Control from the Network menu to enable or disable control of the DHD Controller via an IP connection (typically using a web browser). Set it to On to allow all incoming remote network connectivity. Set it to Off to disable any incoming network communication that was not initiated by the DHD Controller.

Note

Color Space: Select Color Space from the Service menu to choose the color space of the source signal for HDMI, RGB, and component connections.

• 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

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.

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, Italiano, Español, Svenska, (Simplified Chinese), (Traditional Chinese), Português, (Russian), (Japanese) or (Korean).

•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.

•OSD Messages:

the DHD Controller briefly displays an on-screen message confirming your new selection. To prevent the display of these messages, select OSD Messages from the Miscellaneous menu to and set it to Off.

•Blank Screen Color: Select Blank Screen Color from the Miscellaneous menu to select the color that appears when no incoming signal is present. The range is from 0 to 255 inclusive for each color component (red, green and blue).

• Sidebar Color: Select Sidebar Color from the Miscellaneous menu to change the color of the inactive image area. The range is from 0 to 255 inclusive for each color component (red, green and blue). The inactive image area is on either side of the active image area when using the 4:3 aspect ratio.

• 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.

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.

• Remote Code: Select Remote Code from the Miscellaneous menu to set the infrared (IR) code set to which the DHD Controller will respond. By default, it is set to 17. You can change this setting if either:

• Another device in the theater (a DVD player, for example) is responding to

commands from the DHD Controller remote control (Figure 2-5) in ways that are unpredictable or undesirable.

• You have multiple DHD Controllers 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 DHD Controller.

IMINAR

Operation

Use the DHD Controller front-panel keypad to change the IR code to

which the controller will respond. Then, change the code sent by the remote to match as described below.

PRE

When you change a remote code on the DHD Controller, you must re-program the DHD Controller remote control to send that same code. To do this:

1. Press and hold the LIGHT button on the remote control for approximately three seconds, or until the LED on the remote lights solid red.

2. Enter a new two-digit code between 00 and 31 inclusive. Include a leading zero for single-digit codes; for example, enter 9 as “09.”

3. The LED turns off to confirm the code change. If you enter an invalid code, the LED flashes for three or four seconds. Try again, entering a valid code.

Operation

Sync Threshold: Select Sync Threshold to adjust the threshold at which negative pulses on the component video green/luma channel are interpreted to be sync pulses.

Sync Threshold adjustment is occasionally necessary when a DVD player or HDTV source signal drops “below black” (for example, during scenes with explosions or when subtitles are present) and causes the projector to temporarily lose sync. If the sync level from the source is persistently too low, the display device won’t sync with the source at all.

The range is from 0 (approximately 60 millivolts (mV)) to 15 (approximately 300 mV).

HDMI: Select HDMI from the Service menu to set the following options affecting communication between HDMI sources, the DHD Controller and the SC-50d/SC-60d.

• HDMI EDID Extension: Extended display identification data (EDID) is a data structure provided by a display device to describe its capabilities to a graphics card. It is what enables a modern personal computer to know what kind of monitor is connected.

Some modern display devices provide more information via EDID than others, in the form of “extensions.” Some computer graphics cards do recognize or properly interpret this extended EDID information.

Select HDMI EDID Extension from the HDMI menu to specify whether or not the EDID extensions from the display device are passed through to the 3Dimension Processor and to the sources connected to the HDMI 1, HDMI 2, HDMI 3 or HDMI 4 inputs. By default, the extensions are on. Change these settings only if HDMI EDID incompatibility issues arise.

•Audio Format: Select Audio Format from the HDMI menu to choose an option for routing the audio signal from an HDMI source. With the SC-50d/SC-60d, the recommended setting is HDMI Out (Audio Only). (This is also the default setting.)

•CEC: This control chooses whether or not the DHD Controller responds to HDMI CEC control messages from a disc player, set-top box or other HDMI source.

IMINAR

The default setting is On. For more information about CEC, refer to Using HDMI CEC Messages on page 96.

Note

PRE

• HPD Toggle Rejection: Select HPD Toggle Rejection from the HDMI menu to specify whether or not the DHD Controller ignores extraneous Hot Plug Detect (HPD) signal state changes from a downstream HDMI device (third-party display or audio/video receiver).

The default setting, Auto, enables HPD toggle rejection on the SC-50d/SC-60d. Use the other settings to troubleshoot compatibility issues or reduce the amount of time needed to lock to an incoming signal.

The DHD Controller does not transmit HDMI CEC control messages from the “HDMI Audio Out” connector, regardless of the CEC setting.
