Figure 3-26. Active 3D Emitter Connection Connecting to AC Power Projector/Dimension Digital Controller: Plug the female end of one power cord into the AC receptacle on the rear of the X-400d/X-450d (AC 100V ~ 240V). Then, connect the other end to your AC power source. Similarly connect the Dimension Digital Controller to a nearby AC outlet. AutoScope Lens Motor: With AutoScope-equipped projectors, an additional power cord is provided for the lens motor. Plug the female end of the AC power cord into the AC input on the rear of the lens motor assembly. Connect the other end to a 110 VAC power source. Secure the emitter in the desired location using double-sided tape or a similar adhesive material.

If this is an AutoScope-equipped projector, turn on the main power switch at the rear of the AutoScope lens motor. The lens motor power switch is located next to the AC input (see Figure 3-17). 3. Turn on the main power switch at the rear of the Dimension Digital Controller. 4. Press the ON button on the remote control (or the ON/STA N D B Y ( ) button on the Dimension Digital Controller front panel) to turn on the system. The vacuum fluorescent display on the Dimension Digital Controller front panel briefly displays “Initializing System,” followed by “Starting X-400d/X-450d.” 5. When the display is ready for use, the fluorescent display indicates the active source, input resolution/frame rate and aspect ratio/screen; for example: 6. When the projector is turned on, the Active 3D Emitter turns on as well. The LEDs display a red moving pattern while the emitter attempts to acquire a 3D signal and until a signal is found. If the emitter searches for a signal for longer than 60 seconds, a signal is assumed to not be present. 7. Upon finding a 3D signal, all LEDs turn blue. Once the LEDs indicate a 3D signal, the 3D glasses can be used to experience 3D. For more information on using the Active 3D Glasses, refer to Using the 3D Glasses on page 98.

This allows you to adjust the focus and image size while at the screen for more accurate results. To access the motorized lens controls: 1. On the Dimension Digital Controller remote control or front panel, press MENU. 2. Select Service from the Main Menu and enter the Service Menu passcode. 3. Select Display Device from the Service Menu. 4. Select Configure from the Display Device menu, then select Lens. The Lens menu controls operate as described below. Focus To focus the projected image, use the cursor buttons to highlight “In” or “Out.” Then, press and hold the ENTER button. Zoom To make the picture smaller (zoom out), use the cursor buttons to highlight the minus sign (-). Then, press and hold the ENTER button. To enlarge the picture (zoom in), use the cursor buttons to highlight the plus sign (+). Then, press and hold the ENTER button. Vertical and Horizontal Lens Shift To change the lens position, use the cursor buttons to highlight “Left,” “Right,” “Up” or “Down” in the Lens menu. Then, press and hold the ENTER button to shift the lens in that direction. To return the lens to its home position (no horizontal or vertical shift), use the cursor buttons to highlight “Home” in the Lens menu. Then, press the ENTER button. 3.10 Adjusting the Picture OrientationBy default, the X-400d/X-450d 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. On the Dimension Digital Controller remote control or front panel, press MENU. 2. Select Service from the Main Menu and enter the Service Menu passcode. 3. Select Display Device from the Service Menu. 4. Select Configure from the Display Device menu, then select Installation. 5. Select Orientation, then choose Floor/Rear, Ceiling/Front or Ceiling/Rear, to match the installation method. You must enter a passcode to access the Service menu. Note You must enter a passcode to access the Service menu. Note
Installation 50 Runco X-400d/X-450d Installation/Operation Manual PREL IMINARY 3.11 Adjusting the Image GeometryProjector and/or screen placement — among other things — can cause geometric distortion in the projected image. To correct this, the Dimension Digital 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 3-27. Figure 3-27. Keystone and Pincushion Distortion Vertical Keystoning Horizontal K e y s t o n i n g Pincushion Distortion
Installation Runco X-400d/X-450d Installation/Operation Manual 51 PREL IMINARY “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 Dimension Digital Controller remote control or front panel, press MENU. 2. Select Calibration from the Main Menu and enter the Calibration Menu passcode. 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 3-28. Figure 3-28. Image Alignment Controls You must enter a passcode to access the Calibration menu. Use the built-in test pattern when adjusting the image corners or midpoints. To access it, check the Test Pattern box in the Corner Alignment or Midpoint Alignment menu.

Installation 52 Runco X-400d/X-450d Installation/Operation Manual PREL IMINARY 3.12 Installing and Adjusting the CineWide Anamorphic LensIf you are installing an X-400d/X-450d/CineWide or X-400d/X-450d/CineWide with AutoScope, proceed as follows to install and adjust the secondary anamorphic lens. Runco offers two types of anamorphic lenses for its CineWide projectors: prismatic and cylindrical. The prismatic 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 cylindrical anamorphic lens has a larger aperture than the prismatic lens. It stretches the width of the image to achieve a 2.35:1 aspect ratio with a 1.78:1 display device. The X-400d/X-450d/CineWide is available with either a prismatic or a cylindrical anamorphic lens. The X-400d/X-450d/CineWide with AutoScope always uses a cylindrical lens. If you are installing a CineWide projector with a prismatic lens, refer to Whitney (Prismatic) Anamorphic Lens Installation and Adjustment on page 58. If you are installing a CineWide projector with a cylindrical lens, continue with the next section. 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 FOCUS

Remove the two Yaw/X Adjustment Levers and Washers (8) from the bottom of the Anamorphic Lens Holder (6). 2. Place the Anamorphic Lens Holder on top of the AutoScope Carriage Plate or Fixed CineWide Base Plate (7). Position the bracket so that the long slot at the bottom of the lens holder is perpendicular to the corresponding slots on the plate. 3. Secure the Anamorphic Lens Holder to the plate using the Hex Bolts/Washers (9) and Yaw/X Adjustment Levers that you removed in Step 1. 4. Use the Height/Y Adjustment T-Screws/Washers (4), Pitch Adjustment T-Screws/Washers (5) and T-Nuts (1) to attach the Pitch Adjustment Yoke and Lens Adapter Ring to the Anamorphic Lens Holder. The Yoke should be as close to the primary lens as possible. 5. Attach the lens to the Lens Adapter Ring by threading it clockwise. Figure 3-30.
