Installation 32 Runco VX-2000d Owner’s Operating Manual PREL IMINARY Connecting to AC PowerThe VX-2000d system includes two (2) AC power cords (one each for the projector and DHD Controller). Plug the female end of one power cord into the AC receptacle on the rear of the VX-2000d (AC 100V to 240V). Then, connect the other end to your AC power source. Similarly connect the DHD Controller to a nearby AC outlet. 3.6 Turning on the Power 1. Turn on your source components. 2. Turn on the main power switch at the rear of the DHD Controller. 3. Press the ON button on the remote control – or the POWER () button on the DHD Controller front panel – to turn on the system. The vacuum fluorescent display on the DHD Controller front panel briefly displays “Starting Display.” 4. When the projector is ready for use, the fluorescent display indicates the active source, signal format (NTSC or PAL), input resolution and aspect ratio; for example: 3.7 Adjusting the Picture Orientation By default, the VX-2000d is configured for a “floor/front” installation, in which the projector is installed upright and in front of the screen. If it is installed behind the screen and/or mounted on a ceiling, you must change the picture orientation. To do this: 1. Select an input OTHER THAN HDMI 1 or HDMI 2 on the DHD Controller. 2. Press MENU and enter the Service Menu passcode. 3. Select Service from the Main Menu. 4. Select Display Device from the Service Menu, then select Configure. 5. Press , then choose Floor/Rear, Ceiling/Front or Ceiling/Rear, to match the installation method. ➤ Component SD NTSC 480i Anamorphic vx2k/6k Current SourceFormat Input Resolution Aspect Ratio You must enter a passcode to access the Service menu.

To enlarge the picture (zoom in), move the zoom tab toward the Runco logo on the front of the projector. To make the picture smaller (zoom out), move the tab in the other direction. Vertical Lens ShiftTo change the projected image position, use a 9/64” hex driver to shift the lens in the desired direction; see Figure 3-15. The vertical lens shift control is at the top of the projector. (The tool will automatically center on top of the adjustment nut when inserted into the access hole.) Figure 3-15.

Installing and
Adjusting the
CineWide Anamorphic
Lens
If you are installing a CineWide-equipped projector, proceed as follows to install and
adjust the anamorphic lens.
The standard VX-2000d/CineWide uses a prismatic-style anamorphic lens. This type of
lens compresses the height of the image (as opposed to stretching the width) to achieve a
2.35:1 aspect ratio with a 1.78:1 display device.
The standard VX-2000d Anamorphic lens mount kit consists of everything shown in Figure
3-16. 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 Runco
Customer Service at (800)
23-RUNCO.
Figure 3-16. VX-2000d Anamorphic Lens Mounting Assembly - Exploded View
1. Use the Pitch Adjustment Screws (item
#3) and Washers (item #6) to attach the
Mounting Brackets (item #2) to the
Anamorphic Lens (item #1).
2. Use the four Y-Adjustment Screws
(item #5) and Washers (item #4) to
attach the Anamorphic Lens assembly
and Spacers (item #7) to the front of the
projector. (Do not fully tighten the
screws yet.)
It is extremely important that the primary lens is properly
adjusted before you install the anamorphic lens. Ensure that
the image from the primary lens is perfectly centered on the
screen. Note

Installation Runco VX-2000d Owner’s Operating Manual 35 PREL IMINARY Adjusting the Lens Height (Y): 1. Project a white field on the screen. 2. Ensure that the four Height (Y) Adjustment Screws are loose enough to allow vertical movement of the lens assembly. 3. Slowly move the anamorphic lens into place so that there are no shadows on the top or bottom of the screen: 4. When the height is properly set, tighten the Height Adjustment 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 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: The anamorphic lens will almost always be angled with respect to the projector; this is normal. Once the proper lens angle has been set, firmly tighten the Pitch Adjustment Screws to secure the lens in place. There may be some pincushion distortion even after the lens is 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.
