Installation
Considerations
Proper installation of your Crystal Series LCD will ensure the highest possible picture
quality. Whether you are installing the Crystal Series LCD temporarily or permanently, you
should take the following into account to ensure that it performs optimally.
Wall-Mounting the Crystal
Series LCD
You can either place the Crystal Series LCD on a table or in an entertainment center, or
mount it on a wall.
If you do decide to wall-mount the Crystal Series LCD, ensure that the wall-mount bracket
is installed according to the instructions included with it. The wall must be capable of
supporting a redundant weight factor three (3) times the weight of the display, or be
reinforced.
Runco recommends that this be done by a custom installation specialist.
Ambient Light
In general, minimize or eliminate light sources directed at the display. Contrast ratio in your
images will be noticeably reduced if light directly strikes the display, such as when a shaft
of light from a window or floodlight falls on the image. Images may then appear washed
out and less vibrant.
Other Considerations
Other considerations and tips that can help improve your installation:
• Keep the ambient temperature constant and below 35°C (95°F). Keep the display away
from heating and/or air conditioning vents. Changes in temperature may cause drifts in
the display circuitry, which may affect performance.
• Keep the Crystal Series LCD away from devices that radiate electromagnetic energy
such as motors and transformers. Common sources of these include slide projectors,
speakers, power amplifiers and elevators.

Connections to the
Crystal Series LCD
Proceed as follows to connect the Crystal Series LCD to your video sources, external
controller(s) – if present – and AC power.
When connecting your equipment:
• Turn off all equipment before making any connections.
• Use the correct signal cables for each source.
• Ensure that the cables are securely connected. Tighten the thumbscrews on
connectors that have them.
• Use the left audio input when connecting mono audio sources.
Use only the Runco-approved wall-mount kit designed for your
display.
