The Screen Menu allows you to recall multiple sets of stored values for certain controls
(Output Shift and Image Alignment, to name two) that are saved for each aspect ratio.
Such settings are also saved “per screen.” To recall the Output Shift and Image Alignment
settings associated with “Screen 1” or “Screen 2,” make that selection here.
Picture
Use the controls in the Picture Menu to calibrate each DHD Controller input to achieve
optimum picture quality.
The DHD Controller has been designed to incorporate setup and calibration standards
established by the Imaging Science Foundation (ISF). The ISF has developed carefully
crafted, industry-recognized standards for optimal video performance and has
implemented a training program for technicians and installers to use these standards to
obtain optimal picture quality from Runco video display devices. Accordingly, Runco
recommends that setup and calibration be performed by an ISF certified installation
technician.
All signal types require separate processing. Therefore, you need to calibrate each DHD
Controller input separately.
Although it may be possible to obtain satisfactory picture quality using the naked eye and
regular program material, Runco recommends using an external test pattern source
(Ovation Multimedia, Digital Video Essentials or AVIA test DVD or equivalent) for best
results.
Connect your test pattern source to the input that you are calibrating and proceed as
follows.

On your external test pattern source, select a PLUGE pattern. (PLUGE is an
acronym for “Picture Line-Up Generation Equipment.”) Figure 4-2 shows a typical PLUGE

When you change a picture quality setting, save the change to a
preset afterwards. Otherwise, the change will be lost when a
different input is selected. (Picture quality settings are saved for
each input and display mode separately.) For information about
saving settings, refer to

on page 38.
