PictureUse the controls in the Picture Menu to calibrate each Dimension Digital Controller input to
achieve optimum picture quality.
The Dimension Digital 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
Dimension Digital 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. Perform the adjustments in the order listed here.

1. 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 Memory Presets on page 74.
2. For best results, Runco recommends that you set
ConstantContrast (available only on the SC-30d) to Off before
adjusting Brightness, Contrast and other image quality settings in
this menu (refer to ConstantContrast (SC-30d only) on
page 82). After you have completed the initial calibration, set
ConstantContrast to On if desired.
