Introduction Runco RS-440 Installation/Operation Manual 3 PREL IMINARY 1.3 Description, Features and Benefits The Runco RS-440 DLP Projector combines a highly efficient optical light engine with broad installation and integration options. Runco has implemented a host of advancements into the projector’s light engine to take full advantage of its widescreen, high-definition SuperOnyx™ Digital Micromirror Device (DMD™) chip. The RS-440 features Enhanced GEN 3™ technology to produce deeper blacks, greater contrast ratio and brightness, and richly saturated colors. Among the RS-440’s features are a sophisticated color-balancing system that results in the industry’s best gray scale tracking, and far surpasses the capabilities of CRT projectors. Accurate gray scale reproduction is vital to vibrant, true-to-life color reproduction, as well as superior black level and white level performance. Runco’s acclaimed Vivix™ video processing and scaling assure pristine video imagery, while the RS-440’s generous light output capability is powerful enough to handle screens as large as 96 inches wide with ease. The RS-440 features a 16:9 aspect ratio resolution of 1280 x 720. It provides an HDMI input for pure digital video signal transmission. In addition, the projector’s broad lens shift capability, variable throw distance, and electronic horizontal and vertical keystone correction allow for flexible placement within virtually any theater environment. Discrete IR and/or serial control makes it simple to partner the RS-440 with other audio/video components and automated control systems for a truly high-end, home cinema system. For uncompromising widescreen reproduction of movies originally filmed in the “scope” (2.35:1) format, the RS-440 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. CineWide requires the use of a 2.35:1 or similar aspect ratio superwide format screen.Note
