NO USER SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE.
REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC
Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.
1. Read these instructions.
2. Keep these instructions.
3. Heed all warnings.
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. Do not block any ventilation openings.
7. Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that
produce heat.
8. Do not defeat the safety feature of the polarized or grounding type plug. A polarized type plug has two blades with one
wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The third prong is provided for
your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for the replacement of the obsolete
outlet.
9. The 12V trigger only outputs DC 12V signal for triggering. Do not connect to any other power input or output. This could
cause damage to this unit.
10. Only use accessories specified by Runco International.

13. 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. Do not operate lamps beyond the rated lamp life. Excessive operation of
lamps beyond rated life could cause them to explode in rare occasions.
14. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the projector has been damaged in any way,
objects have fallen or spilled into the projector, the projector has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate
normally, or has been dropped.

Introduction
The Reflection™ VX-1000d incorporates Runco’s exclusive Enhanced GEN 3™
engineering advancements to make more efficient use of optical light engine design. This
results in greater light output and dramatically increases contrast ratio.
Runco has implemented a host of improvements into the VX-1000d light engine to take
full advantage of its 16:9 SuperOnyx™ Digital Micromirror Device™ (DMD™) chip. These
include a sophisticated color balancing system resulting in the industry’s best gray scale
tracking. Additionally, the VX-1000d incorporates Reflectance Volume Regulation™
(RVR™), which provides for infinitely variable adjustment of the light path through the
optics, enabling the perfect blend of black and white levels for each individual installation.
The VX-1000d is supplied with Runco’s next-generation, Digital High Definition (DHD™)
Controller featuring advanced Vivix II™ processing, superb scaling and aspect ratio
control. The DHD Controller produces stunning video imagery, elevating even standard
NTSC material to near high definition levels.
The DHD provides for a pure digital signal path from input to output, making this system
ready for Runco’s exclusive LiveLink™ DVI cable solution to preserve HD signal quality
over long runs.
The VX-1000d produces an impressive 1500 ANSI lumens of light output (CSMS™ light
output of 15.6 to 22.4 ft-Lamberts). This advanced design provides pure digital
connections from input to light engine for absolutely stellar pictures. In addition, Runco’s
multiple aspect ratio control includes its unique VirtualWide™ mode for viewing standard
video formats in widescreen without loss of image quality.
For uncompromising widescreen reproduction of movies originally filmed in the “scope”
(2.35:1) format, the VX-1000d 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.
