Runco VX-22d Owner’s Operating Manual 59 PREL IMINARY 5.1 Lamp Replacement The lamp should be replaced when it reaches the end of its life (typically 2000 hours), or sooner if a noticeable degradation in brightness occurs. When you replace a lamp, you should replace the filters as well. For lamp or filter replacement, please contact your nearest Runco authorized service center or Runco dealer. Do not attempt to replace the lamp yourself! 1. Turn off the projector and unplug the power cord. Allow the projector to cool down for approximately 45 minutes prior to removing the lamp assembly for replacement. 2. Loosen and remove the rear Lamp Cover screw. 3. Slide the Lamp Cover in the direction of the arrow to remove it. 4. Loosen the two, captive lamp assembly mounting screws using a coin or a large, flat-blade screwdriver. 5. Grasp the lamp assembly handle and pull gently, removing the lamp module from the projector housing. 5. Maintenance and Troubleshooting The VX-22d lamp is under high pressure. Handle it with great care at all times. Lamps may explode if dropped or mishandled. Never attempt to disassemble the lamp casing or dispose of the lamp casing in any manner other than by returning it to your Runco dealer. If the lamp breaks, leave the area immediately and stay away for at least 30 minutes. Ventilate the room to allow the mercury vapor to disperse. If you inhale the mercury vapor, see a physician immediately. WARNING

Replace the lamp cover and re-tighten all screws. 5.2 Filter Replacement Whenever you replace the lamp – or more often if the projector is installed in an extremely dusty environment – you should also replace the filter located at the right side of the projector. 1. Loosen the four captive screws holding the filter access panel in place. Then, remove the panel. 2. Pull the filter out of the projector and discard. Do not reuse filters. 3. Insert the new filter with the pleats facing in and the foam-covered side facing out. 4. Replace the filter access panel and tighten the screws to secure it. Side Filter Access Panel

If the suggested solutions fail to resolve the problem or if you encounter an issue not described here, please contact Runco Technical Support. Table 5-1. Troubleshooting Chart SymptomPossible 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 VX-22d incorrectly or not at all. The VX-22d is not plugged in or the AC outlet is not active. Verify the DVI-DL cable connection from the DHD Controller to the VX-22d ( Figure 3-7). Ensure that the VX-22d 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. A projected image from a DVD is split or otherwise scrambled. DVD player is set to progressive scan mode. Turn off progressive scan on the DVD player. 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. 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 (refer to Table 4-1). 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. The lamp has failed. Wait two minutes until the LED at the front of the DHD Controller turns red. Replace the lamp.

Runco VX-22d Owner’s Operating Manual 63 PREL IMINARY 6.1 RS-232 Connection and Port Configuration To interface the DHD Controller with a home theater automation/control system or a PC running terminal emulation software, connect it to your control system or PC as shown in Figure 3-13. Use a null-modem cable. If you are using a PC to communicate with the DHD Controller: 1. Start a terminal session on your PC using a terminal-emulation program, such as HyperTerminal. 2. Configure the 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. 3. Press . You should see a command prompt (>) in the terminal window. 4. Type a command from among those listed in Table 6-1 and press . 6.2 Serial Command Syntax Commands are in ASCII format and are not case-sensitive; on and ON are equivalent. For a command that takes no parameters, type the command followed by a carriage return; for example, to turn on the system, type ON. For a command that takes a parameter, type the command, one or more spaces and the desired value followed by a carriage return; for example, to switch to the S-Video input, type SSRC 1. When you enter a valid command, the DHD Controller executes it. When you send an on/off, input selection, aspect ratio or image preset command, the DHD Controller also responds with an acknowledgment on the command line. For example, when you issue the command SAR 2, the DHD Controller responds with Letterbox on the command line. When you enter a misspelled or otherwise invalid command, the DHD Controller ignores it and responds with Invalid Command on the command line. When you send a command followed by values outside the valid range for that command, the DHD Controller ignores it and responds with Invalid Parameter on the command line. 6. Serial Communications

Specifications 68 Runco VX-22d Owner’s Operating Manual PRELI MINARY Brightness and Contrast: Cinema Standards Measurement System (CSMS) Specifications - Brightness: 58.7 foot-Lamberts (fL) - Contrast Ratio: 321:1 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: 1391 ANSI Lumens - Contrast Ratio: 321:1 These specifications are obtained by calibrating the projector as described above for CSMS measurements. Industry-Standard Specifications - Light Output: 2850 ANSI Lumens - Contrast Ratio: 4000:1 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. Power Requirements: 100 to 240 VAC (auto-sensing), 50/60 Hz, 530 Watts Operating Environment:41°F to 95°F (5°C to 35°C), 0% to 90% humidity (non-condensing) Dimensions:See Figure 7-1 Weight (without lens):99.21 lbs.
