    SVHS player While there are many different ways to connect your source equipment to your PFP Controller, the examples shown above are the most common and are recommended by Runco. • COMPOSITE VIDEO INPUT: Composite video is the most common type of signal used, but is also the lowest in picture quality.
  • Page 16: Overall Functional Description

    Besides being the system's control center, the PFP Controller is also a high-quality scaler, which outputs all signals in the native resolution of the DLC-2000HD Projector. The Composite, S-video and Component (non-progressive) signals are sent through the PFP Controller's 10-bit decoder, de-inter- laced then scaled to the native resolution of the Projector.

    Picture Quality Adjustments Main Menu INPUT SELECT Tint Color Standard Video: Brightness Composite Contrast S-Video Sharpness Luma Enhance* Component Red Gain Chroma Enhance* Green Gain Color Balance* High Definition: Blue Gain Component sub-menu ASPECT RATIO SELECT * Menus are only available during “Installer Mode”. INSTALLER ADJUST* Picture quality adjustments (also known as "Front Panel Controls") are the controls that change different param- eters of the image such as the amount of color, black level, etc.
  • Page 19 CONTRAST adjusts the white level of the image. Adjust contrast until there is a distinct definition between the two brightest bars. NOTE: For best results, Runco recommends that CONTRAST be set to 'midrange' or very close to it. BRIGHTNESS adjusts the black level of the image. To adjust this properly, adjust BRIGHTNESS until the 'below black' bar JUST disappears, but the 'above black' bar is still barely visible.
  • Page 20 SHARPNESS adjusts the amount of high-frequency detail in the image. This can be adjusted to the preference of the user. Keep in mind that when SHARPNESS is decreased, fine details in the image will become 'soft'; when it is increased, fine details will become sharper but will also make the picture appear 'noisy' if adjusted too high.
  • Page 21: Installation Menu

    Installation Menu The Installation menu is where you can adjust the image orientation, adjust keystone and even check the age of the lamp in the Projector. When the Controller is turned on for the first time, the INSTALLATION item will not appear in the main menu.
  • Page 22: Keystone

    Lamp Hours Lamp Hours displays the number of hours the lamp has been on. With the DLC-2000HD, the lamp life is around 1500 hours. This should be checked periodically to keep track of the lamp's age, and when the lamp is around 1500 hours old, a new one should be installed to prevent lamp failure, including implosion.
