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

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  
Other Terms and Conditions  
1. Runco will not accept returned Product unless an RMA number has been issued by Runco.  
2. If an Advance Exchange return occurs, it is the customer’s responsibility to properly package the defective product and  
ship it to the address provided by the Runco technical support representative with the RMA number prominently  
displayed. If the defective product is not properly packaged and is damaged in transit during its return to Runco, you may  
be invoiced for either the repair costs, if repairable, or the MSRP of a replacement product and shipping costs incurred by  
Runco.  
3. The repaired or replaced product will assume the remainder of your original product’s RuncoCare Service Plan term or 90  
days from the date the repaired unit is shipped, whichever is longer.  
4. If a replacement product is sent, the customer agrees to retain the replacement for the product you purchased and your  
defective product becomes the property of Runco.

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.  
1.3  
Description, Features  
and Benefits  
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.  
CineGlide requires the use of a 2.35:1 or similar aspect ratio superwide  
format screen.  
Note  
Rounding out this projector’s impressive feature set are discrete input source, aspect ratio  
and power on/off control (via serial commands or IR codes), for seamless integration with  
automation control systems.

Ambient Light  
In general, minimize or eliminate light sources directed at the screen. Contrast ratio in your  
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.  
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) =

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

Vertical Lens Shift: The LS-10d zoom lenses (Proteus 2 through 6) provide up to 65% of  
vertical lens shift in either direction (up or down). For example, with a 96 x 54-inch (16:9)  
screen, you can shift the image up to 35.10 inches (0.89 meters) below the screen center.  
(Vertical lens shift is not possible with the Proteus 1 lens.)  
Horizontal Lens Shift: The LS-10d zoom lenses (Proteus 2 through 6) allow up to 30%  
of horizontal lens shift in either direction (left or right). For example, with a 96 x 54-inch  
(16:9) screen, you can shift the image up to 28.80 inches (73.15 cm) left or right of the  
screen center. (Horizontal lens shift is not possible with the Proteus 1 lens.)

Folded Optics  
In rear screen applications where space behind the projector is limited, a mirror may be  
used to fold the optical path, as shown in Figure 3-5. The position of the projector and  
mirror must be accurately set. If you are considering this type of installation, contact your  
dealer for assistance.

Audio/Video  
Synchronization Issues  
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.

Other considerations and tips that can help improve your installation:  
Other Considerations  
• 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 you are installing a standard LS-10d (without an anamorphic lens), skip this step and  
3.4  
Installing the Optional  
Anamorphic Lens  
Mount  
If you are installing an LS-10d with an anamorphic lens, proceed as follows to install the  
lens mount and transport assembly.  
1. Do not install the anamorphic lens yet, only the lens mount and  
Note  
transport assembly. You will install the anamorphic lens after you  
install the projector and adjust the primary lens.  
2. Some components shipped with your projector may differ slightly  
from what is shown in these instructions.  
The LS-10d Anamorphic lens mount kit consists of the following items. Some  
components shipped with your projector may differ slightly from what is shown in these  
instructions. If any items are missing or damaged, please contact your Runco dealer or

There are several methods for mounting the projector. Depending on your chosen  
installation, one method may be more suitable than another.  
3.5  
Mounting the LS-10d  
Floor Mounting (Upright)  
In typical front and rear screen installations, the projector can be mounted to a secure and  
level surface such as a table or cart. Carts are useful when moving a projector during a  
presentation or from site to site. If possible, lock the wheels when it’s in position to prevent  
it from being moved during a presentation.  
Ceiling Mounting  
(Inverted)  
For fixed installations, and for those that want the projector out of sight or have a limited  
space for projector and audience, you can invert the LS-10d and suspend it from the  
ceiling using a specially-designed ceiling mount fixture.  
Use only the Runco-approved ceiling mount kit designed for your  
projector.  
Note  
Install the ceiling mount kit according to the instructions provided with it.  
If you are ceiling-mounting an LS-10d with an anamorphic lens, perform these additional  
steps to secure the plate Security Hooks to the ceiling (refer to Attaching the Security  
Hooks on the previous page).  
1. Install ceiling hooks (not supplied) into the ceiling directly above the Plate Hooks. The  
ceiling hooks should be small enough to accept a Chain End but strong enough when  
installed to each support 40 pounds or more.  
2. Attach a Chain End to the Chain and then connect it to one of the ceiling hooks.  
3. Cut the Chain to a length equal to or slightly greater than the distance between the  
ceiling hook and the corresponding Plate Hook.  
4. Attach a Chain End to the other end of the Chain. Then, use the Chain to connect the  
ceiling hook and the Plate Hook.  
5. Repeat Steps 2 through 4 for the other ceilling hook/Plate Hook pair.  
Installing the Projector in  
an Enclosure  
The projector can also be inverted and placed in an enclosure above and behind the  
viewing area. Install four feet on the inside bottom surface of the enclosure on which the  
projector can rest. A variety of materials can be used for this purpose (for example, rubber  
crutch tips or turntable feet).

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.  
Adjusting the Projection  
Angle  
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.  
360º  
20º

Proceed as follows to connect the DHD Controller to the LS-10d, your video sources,  
external controller(s) – if present – and AC power.  
3.6  
Connections to the  
LS-10d and DHD  
Controller  
When connecting your equipment:  
• Turn off all equipment before making any connections.  
• Use the correct signal cables for each source.  
• For best performance and to minimize cable clutter, use high-quality cables that are  
only as long as necessary to connect two devices. (Don’t use a 20-foot cable when a  
6-foot cable will suffice.)  
• Ensure that the cables are securely connected. Tighten the thumbscrews on  
connectors that have them.  
Connector Panel Access  
Using a flat-blade screwdriver, loosen the two  
screws holding the rear compartment cover  
in place.  
Then, remove the rear compartment cover by  
tilting it upward.

Projector and/or screen placement — among other things — can cause geometric  
distortion in the projected image.  
3.10  
Adjusting the Image  
Geometry  
To correct this, the DHD Controller provides precise, nine-point control over the projected  
image geometry. Use these controls as (and only if) needed to re-position the image  
corners, mid-points and center to eliminate “keystoning” (mis-aligned corners) or  
“pincushion” distortion (mid-points not aligned with corners). See Figure 3-17.

“Keystoning” usually occurs when the projector is tilted relative to the screen. “Pincushion”  
distortion can sometimes occur if the throw distance is very short and/or the projector is  
equipped with an anamorphic lens.  
To correct keystoning or pincushion distortion:  
1. On the DHD Controller remote control or front panel, press MENU.  
2. Select Calibration from the Main Menu and enter the Calibration Menu passcode.  
You must enter a passcode to access the Calibration menu.  
Note  
3. Select Image Alignment from the Calibration Menu.  
4. Select Corner Alignment to correct a “keystoned” image by adjusting the image  
corner positions. Select Midpoint Alignment to correct pincushion distortion by  
adjusting the image edge mid-points. See Figure 3-18.

If you are installing an LS-10d with an anamorphic lens, proceed as follows to install and  
adjust the lens.  
3.11  
Installing and  
Adjusting the  
Anamorphic Lens  
It is extremely important that the primary lens is properly  
Note  
adjusted before you install the anamorphic lens. Ensure that  
the image from the primary lens is perfectly centered on the  
screen.  
Attach the anamorphic lens to the bracket using the plastic knobs supplied with the lens.  
See Figure 3-19.  
Anamorphic Lens  
Installation and  
Adjustment  
Figure 3-19. Attaching the Anamorphic Lens to the Lens Mount  
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.  
If you are using a trigger on the DHD Controller to control the lens transport motor,  
proceed as follows to configure it for proper operation.  
You can skip this step if you connected the lens transport motor to  
the TRIGGER 1 output on the LS-10d, as shown in Figure 3-15.  
Note  
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.  
Runco LS-10d Installation/Operation Manual  
43  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
       
3. Select Service from the Main Menu and enter the Service Menu passcode.  
You must enter a passcode to access the Service menu for the first  
time after turning on the system.  
Note  
4. Select Triggers 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 aspect ratio to move the anamorphic lens into position, if it isn’t  
already. To do this, press CINEMA on the DHD Controller remote control (Figure 2-6),  
or press  
or  
repeatedly with no menus visible on-screen.  
Adjusting the Lens Position:  
1. Adjust the vertical position and tilt of the lens so that the projector beam is passing  
through the center of the lens and any residual pincushion distortion is about the  
same at the top and bottom of the image. This typically results in the anamorphic lens  
being below the center of the primary lens and tilted slightly downward.  
2. Tighten the knobs.  
There may be some pincushion distortion even after the lens is  
Note  
properly adjusted, especially at shorter throw distances. If this is the  
case, Runco recommends that you slightly over-scan the image  
into the screen frame area to mask the distortion.  
3. Adjust the rotation of the Lens Transport Assembly so that the left and right sides of  
the image are an equal distance from their respective screen borders.  
4. Tighten the Pivot Screw and the four mounting screws holding the transport to the  
Attachment Plate.  
5. For optimum multiple aspect ratio performance, adjust the projector’s zoom so that a  
1.85:1 aspect ratio movie is just masked by the top and bottom of the screen border  
when the anamorphic lens is not in front of the primary lens. This way 1.85:1, 16:9  
and 2.35-2.4:1 aspect ratio movies are all presented to fill the screen at a constant  
height.  
6. Remove the protective film from the  
front of the anamorphic lens.

The currently-selected aspect ratio is indicated by a “7” to its left; in this example, 16:9 is  
selected.  
Note that some aspect ratios are unavailable and/or not useful with certain types of  
source material. The optimal setting depends on a number of factors, such as:  
• The aspect ratio of the source material, as broadcast or encoded on the playback  
medium.  
• The “display type” (16:9 or 4:3) and output resolution settings at the source  
component. Most modern DVD/BD players and set-top boxes have such controls.  
• Viewer preference (original aspect ratio with “black bars,” or a full-screen presentation  
with some distortion or cropping).  
The aspect ratio selection is automatically saved for each input and  
resolution.

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.  
1. When you change a picture quality setting, save the change to a  
Note  
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,  
2. For best results, Runco recommends that you set  
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.  
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  
pattern.  
Below Black  
Above Black

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.  
Figure 4-3. Typical Gray Bar Pattern for Adjusting Contrast  
Select Contrast and press ENTER. Adjust the contrast to a point just below which the  
white rectangle starts to increase in size.  
Brightness and contrast controls are interactive. A change to one  
may require a subtle change to the other in order to achieve the  
optimum setting.

Color Saturation: On your external test pattern source, select a color bar pattern like the  
one shown in Figure 4-4.  
Figure 4-4. Typical Color Bar Pattern for Adjusting Color Saturation and Tint  
1. Press the MENU button on the remote control or DHD Controller front panel.  
2. Select Service from the Main Menu and press ENTER.  
3. Enter the Service menu passcode.  
4. Select Display Device from the Service menu and press ENTER.  
5. Press ENTER again to select Configure.  
6. Select Diagnostics and press ENTER.  
7. Select Blue from the Diagnostics menu, then press ENTER to display only the blue  
color channel.  
8. Press EXIT (or MENU) repeatedly to return to the Main Menu.  
9. Select Picture from the Main Menu and press ENTER.  
10.Select Color from the Picture menu and press ENTER.

11.Adjust the color saturation level until the outermost (gray and blue) color bars appear to  
be a single shade of blue:  
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.  
To adjust the tint, enable “blue only” display mode in the Diagnostics menu, as you would  
for adjusting color saturation (refer to the previous section, Color Saturation).  
Select Tint from the Picture menu and press ENTER. Adjust the tint level until the cyan  
and magenta color bars (on either side of the green bar) appear to be a single shade of  
blue.  
Like the brightness and contrast controls, the color and tint controls  
are interactive. A change to one may require a subtle change to the  
other in order to achieve the optimum setting.

Sharpness: “Sharpness” is the amount of high-frequency detail in the image. To adjust  
sharpness, select Sharpness from the Picture menu and press ENTER. On your external  
test pattern source, select a pattern like the one shown in Figure 4-5. Adjust as needed,  
looking for white edges around the transitions from black to gray and differently-sized lines  
in the “sweep” patterns at the top and bottom. Lower the sharpness setting to eliminate  
them.  
Figure 4-5. Typical Test Pattern for Adjusting Sharpness  
Noise Filter: To apply noise filtering to the input signal, select Noise Filter from the Picture  
menu. The Noise Filter is useful for clearing up noisy images from 480i video sources.  
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.  
Use the controls in the Input Position Menu to fine-tune the aspect ratio and image  
position for the current source.  
The input position settings are automatically saved for each input  
and resolution.  
Note  
Left/Right: Select Left/Right from the Input Position menu to shift the projected image  
horizontally. Press to shift the image to the right; press to shift it to the left.  
Up/Down: Select Up/Down from the Input Position menu to shift the projected image  
vertically. Press to shift the image upward; press to shift it downward.  
Width: Select Width from the Input Position menu to change the projected image width.  
Press  
to increase the width; press  
to decrease it.

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.  
Figure 4-6 illustrates the effect of each overscan mode setting.

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.  
For each input, the DHD Controller lets you save image quality settings as presets that you  
can recall at a later time. You can create up to four presets per input and display mode  
(resolution and frame rate).

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 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

ConstantContrast: Select ConstantContrast from the Display Color 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.  
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.  
The DHD Controller uses the Color Gamut settings for all display  
modes on a given input.  
Note  
Auto automatically chooses the appropriate color gamut:  
SMPTE C for NTSC, 480i and 480p sources.  
EBU for PAL, SECAM, 576i and 576p sources.  
REC709 for all other sources.  
• Select REC709 to use the color gamut defined in ITU-R BT.709-5.  
• Select SMPTE-C to use the color gamut defined in SMPTE 170M-1999.  
• Select EBU to use the color gamut defined in EBU Tech. 3213-E.  
• Select Native to use REC709 for cyan, magenta, and yellow and uncorrected values  
for red, green, and blue.  
• Select PCE to use the Personal Color Equalizer feature of the LS-10d. PCE lets you  
define a custom color gamut. Refer to the next section, PCE, for instructions on how to  
do this.

• PCE: To use the Personal Color Equalizer to define a custom color gamut, choose the  
from the Display Color menu and press ENTER.  
The DHD Controller uses the PCE settings for all display modes on  
a given input.  
Note  
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.

Figure 4-8. Effect of PCE Hue and Saturation Controls  
White Balance: To precisely adjust the white point associated with the custom  
color gamut, choose White Balance from the PCE sub-menu. These controls  
operate identically to the Gain controls in the Display Color menu (described on  
Input Image: The Input Image controls are functionally similar to those in the Picture  
menu (refer to page 50), but are accessible only by entering the Calibration menu  
passcode.  
The Input Image settings establish the “zero point” for the Picture

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.  
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.

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  
message “Settings Copied” briefly appears on-screen. The Copy/Paste menu then  
re-appears, indicating the source of the copied settings.  
Copied settings are not retained after a power cycle.  
Note  
Paste Settings: To apply the settings on the clipboard to a different input source,  
signal format and/or memory preset, do any or all of the following:  
• Switch to another DHD Controller input (for example, from HD1 to HD2).  
• Change the output signal format at the source (for example, from 720p/60 to  
1080i/60).  
• Switch to another Memory Preset (for example, from ISF Night to Custom 1).  
Then, select Paste Settings from the Copy/Paste menu. If you want to keep these  
new settings, you must save them! (Refer to Save ISF Night/Save ISF Day on

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  
in digital component standards.  
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.  
If your LS-10d is equipped with an anamorphic lens, assign at least one trigger output (the  
same one to which the lens motor is connected) to the Cinema and Virtual Cinema aspect  
ratios.  
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, Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, Português or Russian).  
• 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: When you select a new aspect ratio, input source or memory preset,  
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.  
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 2-6) 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.  
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.  
Tip  
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  
LIGHT  
remote control for approximately three  
seconds, or until the LED on the remote lights  
solid red.  
ON  
OFF  
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.

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 LS-10d.  
HDMI EDID Extension: Extended display identification data (EDID) is a data  
structureprovided 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 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 LS-10d, the recommended  
setting is HDMI Out (Audio Only). (This is 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. It also enables  
or disables CEC communication between the DHD Controller and projector.  
The default (and recommended) setting is On. For more information about CEC, refer  
1. Setting CEC to Off prevents communication between the DHD  
Controller and projector, and should be done only for  
Note  
troubleshooting purposes.  
2. The DHD Controller does not transmit HDMI CEC control  
messages from the “HDMI Audio Out” connector.

Table 5-1 provides some general guidelines for troubleshooting problems you may  
encounter with the LS-10d. If you encounter an issue not described here, please contact  
Runco Technical Support.  
5.2  
Troubleshooting Tips  
Table 5-1. Troubleshooting Chart  
Symptom  
Possible Cause(s)  
Solution  
The projector does not turn  
on after initial installation. The  
power LED on the front of the  
DHD Controller lights red after  
you press the power button.  
• The DHD Controller is  
connected to the LS-10d  
incorrectly or not at all.  
• Verify the HDMI cable  
connection from the DHD  
Controller to the LS-10d.  
Do not use a DVI cable  
for this connection.  
• The LS-10d is not plugged  
in or the AC outlet is not  
active.  
• Ensure that the LS-10d is  
plugged in and that the AC  
outlet is active.  
The projector and DHD Con-  
troller are both on, but there is  
no video image on-screen.  
• Incorrect source selection.  
• Source component is not  
turned on.  
• Select the correct source.  
• Turn on the source.  
Image is too bright and/or  
lacks definition in the bright  
areas of the image.  
• Contrast is set too high.  
• Lower the contrast setting.  
Image appears “washed out”  
and/or dark areas appear too  
bright.  
• Brightness is set too high.  
• Lower the brightness  
setting.  
Colors in the image are  
swapped; for example, reds  
appear blue or vice versa.  
• The Red/Pr, Green/Y or  
Blue/Pb outputs from the  
source are connected to  
the wrong inputs on the  
DHD Controller.  
• Ensure that the source  
outputs are connected to  
the correct DHD Controller  
input.  
Image geometry is incorrect.  
• Incorrect aspect ratio  
selection.  
• Select the aspect ratio that  
best matches the source  
image and screen size  
The projector will not turn  
back on after it was powered  
down, or the image disap-  
pears during operation.  
• The projector will not turn  
on for two minutes after  
power-down, to protect  
the lamp.  
• Wait two minutes until the  
LED at the front of the

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.  
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.  
6.1  
Serial Communications  
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.  
RS-232 Connection and  
Port Configuration  
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.  
Serial commands to the DHD Controller take the following form:  
• Commands are not case-sensitive.  
Serial Command Syntax  
• 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.  
Avoid combining the ONor POWER 1commands with other commands  
Note  
on a single line. After sending ONor 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.

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 (- >).

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.  
6.2  
Using Discrete IR  
Codes  
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.  
IR Command Protocol  
The IR control codes have the following characteristics:  
• 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.  
For example, here is the RC5 control code for the ON button on the DHD Controller  
remote control unit (assuming the default address is used):

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:  
6.3  
Using HDMI CEC  
Messages  
• 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.

Table 7-1. LS-10d Specifications (continued)  
Brightness and Contrast:  
Cinema Standards Measurement System (CSMS)  
Specifications  
-
-
Brightness: 119 foot-Lamberts (fL)  
Contrast Ratio: 251:1  
These measurements are taken from the projector in a controlled,  
home theater environment. All measurements are made to  
ANSI/NAPM IT7.228-1997 specifications using the Photo Research  
PR-650 SpectraColorimeter and Minolta LS-100 Luminance Meter,  
Video Essentials test DVD and a 1.3 gain, 72-inch wide screen. The  
projector is calibrated to a color temperature of 6,500K and has a  
minimum of 150 hours of usage.  
The foot-Lambert (fL) is the unit of measurement used in commercial  
movie theaters to express image brightness at the screen surface. The  
Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers (SMPTE) specifies  
16 fL as the target image brightness for film-based projectors using an  
open gate (without film in the projector). More importantly, today  
SMPTE specifies 12 fL as the target image brightness in Digital  
Cinema theaters. The foot-Lambert measurement is dependent on  
screen size, screen gain and projector light output.  
Home Theater Calibration Specifications  
-
-
Light Output: 1845 ANSI Lumens  
Contrast Ratio: 251:1  
These specifications are obtained by calibrating the projector as  
described above for CSMS measurements.  
Industry-Standard Specifications  
-
-
Light Output: 2100 ANSI Lumens  
Contrast Ratio: 10,000:1 full-on, full-off (dynamic)  
These are typical projector brightness and contrast specifications  
found in most companies’ sales literature. Runco includes these  
measurements in its literature to allow for direct comparison with other  
manufacturers’ projectors. These measurements are typically taken at  
9,000K to 13,000K to get expected performance data when the  
projector is used in professional, commercial and industrial displays.
