Runco RS-900 Series RS1100 Series Betriebsanweisung

By default, the RS-900/RS1100 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.

Press MENU on the remote control. 

2.

Select Installation from the Main Menu and press ENTER. 

3.

Select Orientation from the Installation Menu.

4.

Choose Floor Rear, Ceiling Front or Ceiling Rear to match the installation method.

If you are installing a CineWide-equipped projector, proceed as follows to install and 
adjust the 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. Two, cylindrical anamorphic lens options are available: Rainier II and McKinley. 
Although they differ in size and throw distance range (refer to Table 3-3), the installation 
procedure for both lenses is similar.

The following models are available with either a prismatic or a cylindrical anamorphic lens:

• RS-900/CineWide

• RS1100/CineWide

• RS1100 Ultra/CineWide

The following models always use a cylindrical lens:

• RS-900/CineWide with AutoScope

• RS1100/CineWide with AutoScope

• RS1100 Ultra/CineWide with AutoScope

If you are installing a CineWide projector with a prismatic lens, refer to Whitney 
(Prismatic) Anamorphic Lens Installation and Adjustment on page 45. If you are 
installing a CineWide projector with a cylindrical lens, continue with the next section.
