    Operation: DR-300 Projector MENU TREE The menu system of your DR-300 is comprised of three sections- the MAIN menu, the SUB MENUS and the adjustable ITEMS. Please note that not all items will work for all types of inputs; items in italics are for service personnel only.
  • Page 12: Aspect Ratios

    Obviously, watching a movie like this does not lend itself to a truly cinematic Experience! This is why Runco invented the first-ever multiple aspect-ratio projection system back in 1991, so true movie-lovers can watch actual widescreen (letterbox) movies on a WIDESCREEN! The term "WIDESCREEN"...
  • Page 13 The way we create a widescreen (or LETTERBOX) aspect ratio is to take a full 4:3 image, then 'blank' (or cut off) the top and bottom so the displayed image is in a widescreen format. For movies recorded in 'letterbox', there would be no information above and below the screen anyways, so we're not losing any of the picture.
  • Page 14: Source Select

    However, if you will be switching between RGB and component sources, ensure all five cables (R,G,B,H,V) are connected. The projector will automatically detect whether a signal is component or RGB. Therefore, no com- mand(s) need to be sent to the projector to tell it to change from one to the other.

    An image with Keystone error This may occur in installations where the projector needed to be angled as a result of a larger vertical offset. This keystone feature will correct for trapezoidal distortion for as much as a 15° projector angle.
  • Page 17 This should normally not need to be adjusted, as the projector automatically detects the incoming signal and calibrates itself accordingly. PHASE is a fine adjustment that can be used to sharpen text and other fine details in a computer image.

    'time out' or disappear from the screen. Choose from either MANUAL (in which you must manually remove the menus with the cancel button), Auto 5 secs, Auto 15 secs and Auto 45 secs. Runco rec- ommends that this be left in Auto 5 secs.
  • Page 20 CENTER Position (default) BOTTOM Position The 16:9 POSITION feature can be used in lieu of angling the projector and using keystone, and can ONLY be used on 16:9 screens and CANNOT be used if an anamorphic lens is installed on the projector.
  • Page 21 NOTE: Runco HIGHLY recommends that this feature be left disabled (unchecked). To ensure long life and reliability of your DR-300 projector, ALWAYS turn the unit on and off with the remote control. POWER MANAGEMENT: When this is checked, the projector will shut itself off if no RGB signal is detected for a period of five minutes.
  • Page 22 There are three choices: LAST: When the projector is turned on, it will go to the last input it was on before it was turned off. AUTO: Enables the projector to search for an active source on its own in the following order: RGB/Component, S-video, Composite Video.
