Controlling 4 CONTROLLING Caution: Do not display a stationary image with full brightness and contrast for longer than 20 minutes, otherwise you risk damage to the CRTs. Battery Installation in the RCU A new battery has been packaged inside the plastic bag with the power cord. Before using the RCU, install the battery first. Remove the battery cover on the backside of the RCU by pushing the indicated handle a little to the bottom of the RCU. Lift the top side of the cover at the same time (fig. 1).
Controlling Projector Address The Runco DTV-1101 can be controlled with a. the RCU b. the built-in RCU (local keypad) a. Software set up of the projector address The procedure and results of controlling the projector with either of these RCU options is essentially the same. See 'Change Projector Address' in Chapter 2, 'Service Mode'. Every projector requires an individual address between 0 and 255, which is set in the Service mode.
Controlling How to Display a Projector Address Analog Picture Controls Press the ADDRESS key (recessed key on the RCU) with a pencil. The projector's address will be displayed in a 'text box'. This text box will disappear after a few seconds. The analog picture controls can be adjusted with the RCU. The control keys are located on the lower right side of the key panel of the RCU and indicated with the name of the control and an icon.
Controlling Controlling Chained Projectors Projectors can be controlled individually as well as in a group. For individual control, see previous pages. For group control of the projectors, see Input Selection and Analog Picture Control. Program the 'zero address' into any RCU. Press on the address key and key in the address ('0') with the numeric keys on the RCU itself. Once address '0' is pressed, all projectors will be controlled together until a new address is entered on the RCU.
Start Up of the Adjustment Mode 5 START UP OF THE ADJUSTMENT MODE Adjustment Mode All picture geometry and convergence adjustments are made while in the 'Adjustment Mode'. Press the ADJUST key to enter the 'Adjustment Mode'. Enter the digits with the numeric keys on the RCU. You are now in the 'Adjustment mode'. The Control disk is used to make menu selections and also vertical and horizontal adjustments. The ENTER and EXIT keys are used to move forward and backward through the menu structure.

RANDOM ACCESS ADJUSTMENT MODE PICTURE TUNING GEOMETRY CONVERGENCE FOCUSING COLOR SELECT ENTER continues to the Focusing (Color Select) Menu. EXIT returns to Internal Crosshatch Selection or Setup Pattern Selection Menu. Select with or then to return. FOCUSING ADJUST returns to Operational Mode.
Random Access Adjustment Mode Geometry Adjustments The geometry adjustments have to be done only on the green image. These adjustments are automatically implemented for the other color images: Left-right (EW) and Top-Bottom Corrections, Blanking, Horizontal Amplitude, Vertical Amplitude, Vertical Linearity, and Horizontal Phase.
Random Access Adjustment Mode Raster Shift Adjustment The green raster must be centered both horizontally and vertically on the center of the CRT surface. To center the green raster, look into the green lens and use the control disk to move the raster. CAUTION: It is necessary to look into the lenses to perform these adjustments. To avoid eye discomfort while looking into the lenses, reduce the contrast and gradually increase the brightness level until the raster becomes visible on the face of the CRT.
Random Access Adjustment Mode Left-Right (East-West) Adjustments Left-right adjustments affect only the vertical lines of the projected image. Only the green image is displayed while making left-right adjustments. The red and blue images will automatically be corrected in the same manner. Convergence corrections are automatically disabled for the duration of these adjustments.
Random Access Adjustment Mode Seagull Correction Use this correction only if, after adjusting the vertical lines with the side bow or side keystone, an 'S' deformation is still visible on the left and the right side of the image. The default value on the bar scale for this correction is 50. Push the control disk up or down to highlight SEAGULL CORRECTION on the Left-Right Menu and then press ENTER.
Random Access Adjustment Mode Top-Bottom (North-South) Adjustments Top-Bottom and center adjustments affect only the horizontal lines of the projected image. To start up the Top-Bottom and center corrections, follow the next procedure: Push the control disc up or down to highlight TOP-BOTTOM (N/S) on the Geometry Menu and then press ENTER. Only the green image is displayed while making top-botton adjustments. The red and blue images will automatically be corrected in the same manner.
Random Access Adjustment Mode Seagull Correction Use this correction after the image has been adjusted with top and bottom bow and keystone. If a deformation is still visible (like a seagull) on top and bottom of the image, proceed to the seagull correction. Due to interaction, it is possible that the top and bottom bow will have to be readjusted after adjusting the seagull correction to obtain an improved image. The default value on the bar scale of this correction is 50.
Random Access Adjustment Mode Vertical Linearity Adjustment The vertical linearity adjustment function corrects for vertical nonlinearities that extend from the center of the image to the top and bottom of the image. Push the control disk up or down to highlight V LINEARITY on the Geometry Menu and then press ENTER.
Random Access Adjustment Mode Blanking Adjustments Blanking adjustments affect only the edges of the projected image and are used to frame the projected image on to the screen and to hide or black out unwanted information (or noise). A 0% on the bar scale indicates no blanking.
Random Access Adjustment Mode Convergence Adjustment Convergence adjustments affect both the horizontal and vertical lines of the setup pattern. These adjustments are performed on the red image while superimposed on the green image and then on the blue image while superimposed on the green image. Start with the Coarse Convergence Adjustments and finalise with the Fine Convergence Adjustments.
Random Access Adjustment Mode Vertical Corners To make a coarse adjustment of the red or blue horizontal lines in zone 10, 14, 18, and 22 simultaneously, highlight 'Vertical Corners' and press ENTER to start the adjustment.
