Document Conventions and Menu Navigation
Commands are selected with the supplied infrared remote or the RS232 serial port. To
prevent possible command conflict, only one of these methods of command should be
used at a time. See the Serial RS232 Command Interface section for information on
serial commands. The infrared remote control command notation is described below:
•Remote buttons are named as shown on the remote in a bold font. Example:
MENU.
•For comma separated lists, press the buttons in the sequence shown.
•For parenthesized lists, select one button from the list.
•For square-bracketed lists, press the buttons as needed.
Example: For the list [, , , ], press the arrow keys as needed.
•For menu commands press the MENU button. The and arrow keys are used
to select the function. The arrow key (or OK) is used to enter sub-menus. This
is shown as: MENU →MenuItem →MenuItem. The arrow key (or EXIT)
steps up one menu level.
•Numerical entries are listed as value. The arrow key acts as a backspace key.
•Some commands are activated immediately without the need to press OK. Other
commands must be explicitly accepted by pressing OK. If needed, OK is listed
as part of the command, and will complete the command and return the menu to
one level higher in the menu system.
•For many commands, pressing EXIT cancels a partially completed command and
returns to one level higher in the menu system. For advanced commands
changes are completed from within the command and EXIT just returns to one
level higher in the menu system.
•There are four independent configuration memory types for each input (MEMA,
MEMB, MEMC and MEMD). The input setup and output resolution/timing
can be set independently for each memory. To program an input memory, first
select the input, then select the desired configuration memory and use the menu
system to configure.
•Some menu commands are only available when their associated input is selected.
•Before changes are saved, they can be discarded by entering standby (STBY)
mode.
•A Save must be performed after any changes or all changes will be discarded the
next time the unit enters standby (STBY), or power is lost. To save press
MENU, , OK, OK, OK.

Block Diagram
The function of the Radiance is to process the selected source and output video at the
appropriate resolution. If the video input is interlaced, it is first deinterlaced into a
progressive format. User enabled noise reduction algorithms are then applied and
proprietary No-ring™ scaling algorithms used to scale the resulting progressive video to
the optimal resolution for the display. As part of the scaling process, digital filtering is
used to enhance the image detail. This enhancement allows standard definition inputs,
such as DVDs, to appear to be much higher resolution.
The Radiance is comprised the following major functional sections:
•Video input selection
•Video deinterlacing
•Video enhancement, filtering and scaling
•Video output of HDMI digital video
HDCP encryption is supported. If the signal is encrypted, the HDMI inputs are decrypted,
processed, scaled and then re-encrypted for output as HDMI. For HDCP encrypted
inputs, a HDCP capable display is required.
Commands can be sent by infrared remote or via the serial RS232 port. The RS232 port
is used for software updates. Setup is done with the on-screen menu. User functions (e.g.
select input) use direct commands.
Configuration Memories
To understand how the Radiance functions, it is important to note that setup and
calibration parameters are split into “input memories” and “output configurations.” Input
memories control video source setup. Output configurations control display setup and
calibration and are specified by selecting a Mode, CMS and Style for each input, input-
memory, and input sub-resolution memory.

Section 2 –Overview
RadianceMini rev 11/17/108
The Radiance has four input memories (MEMA, MEMB, MEMC and MEMD). Each
input memory has eight sub-memories that are automatically selected for input
resolutions of 480, 576, 720p, 1080i50, 1080i60, 1080p24, 1080p60 and Other. The
“Other” memory is reserved as a “catch-all” for unspecified resolutions.
The following applies to software revision 102910, and later revisions: Each Input sub-
resolution memory can be independently linked to any one of the eight output mode,
CMS and style memories. They store setup data for the video display setup and
calibration. In the factory default condition all input sub-resolution memories are linked
to “Mode 0,” “CMS 0,” and “Style 0.” To change these enter MENU →Input →Video
Setup →[resolution]→Out Select →(Mode, CMS, Style). These settings can be
changed for each input sub-resolution memory. To “Save” new settings, enter MENU →
Save →OK →OK →OK.

Section 4 –Basic Commands
RadianceMini rev 11/17/109
Section 3 –Quick Start Guide
There are a number of system configurations that can be used when installing your
Radiance. Which one you use will depend on the specifics of your installation, such as if
you have multiple displays and how you connect audio.
Basic Setup Information
STEP 1 –Connect the Radiance outputs
1. Typical system configurations are shown in the System Configuration
Examples section.
2. By default, the Radiance automatically detects the supported Audio modes
by reading the TV/AVR’s EDID and reports these back to all HDMI
sources.
3. When audio is not desired turn the output audio off in the main Audio Menu.
4. By default, the Radiance automatically detects the optimal output resolution
and vertical rate for HDMI and DVI displays. For analog displays
(connected using a HDMI to analog converter) the output resolution must be
manually selected.
5. Set the output color format and level. YCbCr 4:2:2 is the optimal mode to
use, if the display supports it. For RGB format it is important to match the
display’s specified input level (video or PC). The command is:
Menu command: MENU →Output →Configs →[Config] →HDMI Format →Type →
(YCbCr422, YCbCr444, RGB-PC level, RGB-Video level)
NOTE:
For best switching, and power-on, times manually select the output resolution and select
“USER1 EDID” for the audio mode. For example, for a 1080p60 display pressing
MENU 0 2 7 OK selects 1080p60 and eliminates the need for the Radiance to read the
display video EDID. Selecting “Always”, and “USER1 EDID” in the Audio menu
eliminates the need for the Radiance to read the audio EDID information from the
AVR/TV. See the Output Configuration Commands section, and Audio section, for more
information. Remember to save any changes.
STEP 2 –Connect the sources to the Radiance
1. Use the appropriate cables to connect the HDMI output of your sources to a
Radiance input.
STEP 3 –Power up the Radiance
1. Plug the DC power cable, from the external power supply, into the 12 VDC
power connector on the back of the Radiance. Warning: Use only the
Lumagen power supply.
2. Plug the removable AC power cord into the connector on the external power
supply.
3. Plug the AC power cord into a power outlet. (100-240V at ~50/60Hz)
4. The LED on the front panel of the Radiance will light up with a red color.
5. To turn on the Radiance, press the “ON” button on the remote.
6. The LED on the front panel of the Radiance will change to a green color.
STEP 4 –Select an input on the Radiance
1. Select an active video input by using the numeric keypad on the remote
control. Press the “Input” button and then press the corresponding number
button on the remote.

“C,” and “D.” To select one of these memories press MEMA, MEMB, MEMC, or
MEMD, respectively. Note, RS232 codes are provided to directly access these memories.
Each input memory has eight input “sub-memories” that are automatically selected based
on the input resolution.
Each configuration memory, and sub-memory, is independent of the other memories. To
allow the memories to be used for mode selection (e.g. day/night), the type remains
unchanged when a new input is selected. (i.e. If input 2 memory B is active, pressing
“Input, 3” selects input 3 memory B).
Input Aspect Ratio Selection
The input source aspect ratio can be selected by pressing the 4:3, LBOX, 16:9, 1.85, or
2.35 button. To use the NLS feature, press “4:3, NLS”, “16:9, NLS”, or “1.85, NLS”.
•Use 4:3 for standard definition full-screen material.
•Use LBOX for “letterbox” standard definition material, such as analog-television
movies shown with black bars above and below the image.
•Use 16:9 for material labeled as “Enhanced for 16:9 televisions”.
•Use 1.85 for material labeled as “Aspect ratio 1.85”.
•Use 2.35 for material labeled as “Aspect ratio 2.35”.
•Use NLS to apply a horizontal non-linear stretch, to stretch 4:3 to 16:9, or 16:9 or
1.85 to 2.35. NOTE:
Make sure the “display aspect ratio” setting is 16:9 in the setup menu of
all video sources (e.g. DVD players or set top boxes), even if your display
is not 16:9.

Section 5 –Video Configuration
RadianceMini rev 11/17/1013
Section 5 –Video Configuration
Output Video Configuration Commands
By default the output is set to Mode0, “Auto” The selection “Auto” means the Radiance
automatically reads the EDID for the device connected to its and automatically selects the
appropriate output resolution. For “Auto” mode the output vertical rate is selected based
on the input vertical rate. For example, input formats 480i60, 720p60, 1080i60
automatically select a vertical output rate of 60 Hertz. For 576i50, 720p50, and 1080i50
inputs a 50 Hertz output rate is selected. For 1080p24 inputs a 24 Hertz output vertical
rate is selected (if the display allows, otherwise a 60 Hertz output vertical rate is
selected).
For analog displays, and digital displays that do not properly support EDID, the output
Mode must be selected using commands shown below.
Video Output Select Menu
The output Mode, CMS, or Style, are selected using the Video Output Select Menu. The
Video Output Select Menu does not affect the audio settings. See the Audio Configuration
section for information on configuring audio modes. Once selected, the parameters for
the Mode, CMS, and Style are changed using the MENU →Output →(Modes, CMS’s,
Styles) menus.
The Video Output Select Menu can be accessed in two ways. To make global changes to
the output mode, it is accessed from the output menu. To make changes for a specific
input sub-resolution memory, it is accessed from the input video setup menu. An example
of the Video Output Select Menu is shown below:
Input Out Mode CMS Style
If 2D: Mode0 CMS0 Style0
(Auto)
If 3D: Auto CMS0 Style0
From MENU →Output →Output →Global Setup menu the Video Output Select
Menu globally changes the output Mode, CMS or Style for 2D, and 3D. It can select these
for a single input, or for all inputs. After the selections are made and you press OK, the
menu asks for the extent to which the change should be applied (“current input” or “all
inputs”). Use the left and right arrow keys to change the extent as needed and then press
OK. All input sub-resolution memories for the selected input(s) are changed to the new
selections.
To select the output Mode, CMS or Style for a specific input sub-resolution memory, first
select that input, and send the desired resolution to that input. NOTE: In Service mode,
any sub-resolution memory for the current input can be updated independent of the
current input resolution. Select the desired Mode, CMS, and Style using Video Output
Select Menu under the MENU →Input →Video Setup →[Input Resolution] →Out
Select menu. Once changes are made and you press OK, the menu asks for the extent to
which the change should be applied (e.g. “This Input Resolution, This Mem”). Use the
left and right arrow keys to change the extent as needed and then press OK.
Note:
2D and 3D each have their own mode. For current software the 3D Mode is always

Section 5 –Video Configuration
RadianceMini rev 11/17/1014
“Auto.” However, the CMS and Style can be changed. If the 3D option has not been
installed, the 3D modes are not applicable
Output Mode –Global Presets
This command is not generally needed. However, it can be useful when driving displays that do not report EDID and
where no video is visible until a specific format is sent. It changes the Output Mode for all Inputs and input memories.
Select the Output Mode from the table below. The command is:
MENU →Output →Configs→[Config] →Select Mode →OK
The direct commands to select output resolution are:
480p60: MENU 0 2 1 OK 540p60: MENU 0 2 2 OK
720p60: MENU 0 2 4 OK 768p60: MENU 0 2 5 OK
1080p60: MENU 0 2 7 OK 1080i60: MENU 0 2 8 OK
Sync Polarity
By default the output sync polarity is selected automatically. This command allows the
user to override the automatic selection. The command is MENU →Output →Output
→SyncPolarity.
Configuration
By default the display’s 3D capability is automatically detected using its EDID
information. However, some 3D displays do not properly report their 3D capability in
their EDID. This command allows the 3D output capability to be manually enabled (or
disabled). The command is MENU →Output →Output →3D.
Exact Output Timing
After selecting an output format, its timing can be modified on a pixel basis. Do not
change the timing using this menu unless it is really needed. Some digital displays lose
picture if timing is changed by even a single pixel. The command is:
MENU →Output →Configs →[Config] →Timing →Mode Timing
Rate Match
Some material may be sourced at 24.00/60.00 Hertz refresh rates instead of the standard
23.98/59.94 Hertz rates. It is desirable to slightly alter the output rate to match the input
rate as long as the display works with these different rates. The default setting is 'Off.'
Use 'Off' if your display will not accept these rates. The command is:
MENU →Output →Configs →[Config] →Timing →Rate Match →(On,
Off)
Screen Aspect Ratio
Select the screen aspect ratio. The screen aspect ratio range is 1.10 to 2.50 and is entered
in units of hundredths (e.g. 16:9 is entered as 1 7 8). If you have a normal fixed aspect
display, select the “Single output aspect” which is the default setting. If you have a
movable anamorphic lens, select “Output aspect per input aspect”.
There is a special case when you use NLS input aspect with “Output aspect per input
aspect”. When the input aspect is 4.3+NLS the output aspect assigned to the 16:9 entry is
used. When the input aspect is LBOX+NLS, 16:9+NLS, or 1.85+NLS the output aspect
assigned to the 2.35 entry is used. The command is:

Section 5 –Video Configuration
RadianceMini rev 11/17/1015
MENU 0 6 (Single output aspect, Output aspect per input aspect) OK xxx
OK or MENU →Output →Configs →[Config] →Aspect Ratio →(Single
output aspect, Output aspect per input aspect) →Ok →xxx →Ok
Graybar Intensity NOTE:
Consult a home theater specialist for assistance setting the graybar intensity.
Some degree of burn-in will occur on any susceptible display, but this command can help
minimize it by allowing the intensity of the graybars to be adjusted. The command is:
MENU →Output →Configs →[Config] →Other →Graybar →(Sides,
Top/bottom)
Output Type
You can specify the digital output range as “RGB-PC level” (e.g. for 8-bit 0 to 255) or “RGB-Video level” (e.g. for 8-
bit 16 to 235). “YCbCr 422” is the recommended output format. For the HDMI RGB output, setting the level as video
allows blacker-than-black and whiter-than-white. The command is:
MENU →Output →Configs →[Config] →HDMI Format →Type →(YCbCr422, YCbCr444. RGB-
PC level, RGB-Video level)
Dither
Some fixed pixel displays show contouring on images that have gradients because the actual repixel depth of each pixel
is limited. The dither control can be used to enhance the resolution of the display and reduce contouring. Dither
position sets the bit size of the pixel for dithering. Orientation controls the frame-to-frame randomization and can be
fixed of dynamic. Masking can be turned on to clear the lowest bits after the dither position. The command is:
MENU →Output →Configs →[Config] →HDMI Format →Dither
Mask
The "mask" command allows you to “blank” the edges of the video image on the output
without changing its position or scaling. This is useful to blank bad pixel data from the
source that shows on screen, when you want to keep the “pixel perfect” setup (i.e. no
scaling). The gray level of the mask is adjustable from black to white in sixteen steps.
The command is:
MENU →Output →Configs →[Config] →Mask/Shrink →Mask
Shrink
The “shrink” command allows you to adjust the image size to fit inside a screen masking
system. This command is useful for rear-screen and flat-panel displays when the
manufacturer uses too much “overscan”. The command is:
MENU →Output →Configs →[Config] →Mask/Shrink →Shrink
Gamma Factor
The Gamma Factor adjusts the gamma of the video output up or down. Since the
Radiance is in the middle of the video chain, its default goal is to not affect the image
Gamma and so the default Radiance gamma of 1.00. Changing the Gamma Factor allows
the Radiance a “coarse correction” control for display Gamma. It should be set to
(Desired_Gamma / Measured_Gamma). The command is:
MENU →Output →Configs →[Config] →Color Mgmt →Gamma Factor
→OK
Copy Output Settings
This command copies the current output configuration to the selected output
configuration or configurations. You can choose whether to copy the mode settings,
