    TWO YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY
    For Projectors, Video Processors and Controllers
    Congratulations  on  your  purchase  of  a  Runco  video  product  and  welcome  to  the  Runco  family!  We  believe 
    Runco  produces  “The  World’s  Finest  Home  Theater  Products”.  With  proper  installation,  setup  and  care,  you 
    should enjoy many years of unparalleled video performance.
    This  is  a  LIMITED WARRANTY  as  defined  in  the  Magnuson-Moss  Warranty  Act.  Please  read  it  carefully  and 
    retain it with your other important documents.
    SERVICE LABOR:
      Runco will pay for service labor by a Runco  Authorized Service Center when needed as 
    a result of manufacturing defect for a period of two (2) years from the effective date of delivery to the end 
    user (excluding the lamp).
    PARTS:  (Not including the lamp) Runco will provide new or rebuilt replacement parts for the parts that fail 
    due to defects in materials or workmanship for a period of two (2) years from the effective date of delivery 
    to the end user. Such replacement parts are then subsequently warranted for the remaining portion (if any) 
    of the original warranty period.
    PROJECTOR LAMP:  Runco will pay for service labor by a Runco Authorized Service Center when needed as 
    a  result  of  a  manufacturing  defect  for  a  period  of  six  (6)  months  or  1000  hours,  which  ever  comes  first,  from 
    the effective date of delivery to the end user.  In addition, Runco will provide a new or rebuilt replacement lamp 
    for the lamp that fails due to defects in materials or workmanship for a period of six (6) months or 1000 hours, 
    which ever comes first, from the effective date of delivery to the end user.  Such replacement lamps are then 
    subsequently warranted for the remaining portion (if any) of the original warranty period.
     
    This  Limited  Warranty  only  covers  failure  due  to  defects  in  materials  and  workmanship  that  occur  during 
    normal use and does not cover normal maintenance. This  Limited Warranty does not cover cabinets or any 
    appearance  items;  failure  resulting  from  accident,  misuse,  abuse,  neglect,  mishandling,  misapplication, 
    faulty or improper installation or setup adjustments; improper maintenance, alteration, improper use of any 
    input  signal;  damage  due  to  lightning  or  power  line  surges,  spikes  and  brownouts;  damage  that  occurs 
    during shipping or transit; or damage that is attributed to acts of God. In the case of remote control units, 
    damage resulting from leaking, old, damaged or improper batteries is also excluded from coverage under 
    this  Limited Warranty.
    CAUTION:    THIS  LIMITED  WARRANTY  ONLY  COVERS  RUNCO  PRODUCTS  PURCHASED  FROM  RUNCO 
    AUTHORIZED  DEALERS.    ALL  OTHER  PRODUCTS  ARE  SPECIFICALLY  EXCLUDED  FROM  COVERAGE 
    UNDER THIS LIMITED WARRANTY.  MOREOVER, DAMAGE RESULTING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY FROM 
    IMPROPER  INSTALLATION  OR  SETUP  IS  SPECIFICALLY  EXCLUDED  FROM  COVERAGE  UNDER  THIS 
    LIMITED  WARRANTY.

    Runco  limits  its  obligations  under  any  implied  warranties  under  state  laws  to  a  period  not  to  exceed  the  warranty 
    period. There are no express warranties. Runco also excludes any obligation on its part for incidental or consequential 
    damages related to the failure of this product to function properly. Some states do not allow limitations on how long 
    an  implied  warranty  lasts,  and  some  states  do  not  allow  the  exclusion  or  limitation  of  incidental  or  consequential 
    damages. So the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, 
    and you may also have other rights that vary from state to state.
     
    This warranty begins on the effective date of delivery to the end user. For your convenience, keep the original bill of 
    sale as evidence of the purchase date.
     
    Please fill out and mail your warranty registration card. It is imperative that Runco knows how to reach you promptly 
    if we should discover a safety problem or product update for which you must be notified.
     
    Repairs made under the terms of this Limited Warranty covering your Runco video product will be performed at the 
    location of the product, during usual working hours, providing location of product is within normal operating distance 
    from a Runco Authorized Service Center. In some instances it may be necessary for the product to be returned to the 
    Runco factory for repairs. If, solely in Runco’s judgment, location of product to be repaired is beyond normal operating 
    distance of the closest Runco Authorized Service Center, or the repair requires the unit be returned to the Runco factory, 
    it is the owner’s responsibility to arrange for shipment of the product for repair.  These arrangements must be made 
    through the selling Runco Dealer. If this is not possible, contact Runco directly for a Return Authorization number and 
    shipping instructions. Runco will return product transportation prepaid in the United States, unless no product defect is 
    discovered. In that instance, shipping costs will be the responsibility of the owner.

    Introduction
    The  Runco  VX-40d,  VX-50d,  VX-60d  and  VX-80d  Video  Xtreme™  projectors  are 
    professional  3-chip  projectors  based  on  next-generation  Digital  Light  Processing™ 
    (DLP™)  technology  by  Texas  Instruments™.  These  projectors  are  compatible  with 
    standard  international  video  formats  and  can  interface  with  IBM
    ®-compatible PC, 
    Macintosh®  computers  and  workstations.  All  models  deliver  high-brightness,  high-

    fully scaleable)
    •  10-bit video processing
    •  Built-in multi-standard video decoder

    contrast.
    How the Projector Works
    The projector accepts video input signals for projection onto front or rear flat screens. 
    High-brightness light is generated by an internal Xenon lamp then modulated by 
    three Digital Micromirror Device (DMD) panels that provide digitized red, green or blue 
    color information. Light from the “on” pixels of each panel is reflected, converged 
    and then projected to the screen through a single front lens, where all pixels are 
    perfectly superimposed as a sharp full-color image.
     
    The following listed items are shipped with your projector. Ensure you have received all 
    these items before using your projector.
