PRE-INSTALLATION

INSTALLATION

1. Install screen by raising unit into position between joists at one end only. Install lag screws in mounting bracket or

hang from 3/8" rods.

2. Level unit lengthwise with a carpenter’s level and plumb level. Secure opposite end.

CAUTION! Do not secure access door or seal in until screen has been secured in position and properly tested for satisfactory

operation.

3. Remove screw at each end of roller access door (Fig. 1).

4. Remove junction box cover plate.

If your screen has the low voltage control built-in, remove access cover on right end of case. See Figure 3.

5. Install electric hook up that applies to your unit. Make sure to review your electrical installation checklist and wiring

diagram (included) for either 120 volt switch, 220/240 volt switch, or DRC low voltage control.

NOTE: Screen has been internally wired at Da-Lite. Wiring designated “external” is completed by installer conforming to local

and national codes.

CAUTION! DO NOT CUT TAPE ON FABRIC WITH A KNIFE OR ANY SHARP TOOL. REMOVE BY HAND.

▲

1. Carefully unpack screen and remove outer wrapping from case.

2. Make sure to recheck measurements of screen location before installation.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

When using your video equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the

following:

1. Read and understand all instructions before using.

2. Position the cord so that it will not be tripped over, pulled, or contact hot surfaces.

3. If an extension cord is necessary, a cord with a current rating at least equal to that of the appliance

should be used. Cords rated for less amperage than the appliance may overheat.

4. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble this appliance. Contact an authorized

service dealer when repair work is required. Incorrect reassembly can cause electric shock when

the appliance is used subsequently.

5. The use of an accessory attachment not recommended by the manufacturer may cause a risk of

fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

1. Run picture surface downward until picture surface door fully opens.

2. Install junction box cover plate.

3. Close access door.

4. Install screws at each end of access door.

ACCESS DOOR INSTALLATION

SCREEN ADJUSTMENT

Surface travel is stopped automatically in the fully opened and closed positions by limit switches that are properly

adjusted at Da-Lite. Should it be necessary to adjust for more or less drop of picture, proceed in the following manner:

NOTE: Use a screw driver or Allen wrench to make adjustments.

6. Carefully remove shipping brackets by removing the hex head screws from aluminum slat and case. Slat should

move freely (Fig. 2).

CAUTION! Remove shipping brackets before operating screen.

7. Test installation by carefully running picture surface up and down several times. Be prepared to stop screen.

NOTE: When rolled down, the picture surface should wrap fully around the roller. No part of the roller should be exposed.

Picture surface will automatically stop in the down position.

8. Run the picture surface upward. The surface door will automatically close when the picture surface rolls into the

case. A second motor pulls the door closed. When the door closes, a limit switch is tripped and the motor shuts

off.

9. Check for satisfactory condition by operating screen a few times.

CAUTION! Excessive continuous operation may cause overheating. If this happens, the motor will shut off until it cools to

normal operating temperature.

2. When the screen stops, turn the white “down” limit knob (Fig. 2) one-quarter turn counterclockwise. Test by raising

picture surface approximately two feet, then lower again. Repeat until desired picture surface position is attained.

NOTE: Must leave 1-1/2 wraps of fabric on roller.

LESS SCREEN DROP

1. Raise picture surface approximately two feet above desired level.

2. Place operating switch in “off”position.

3. Turn the white “down” limit switch (Fig. 2) one-quarter turn clockwise. Test by raising picture surface

approximately two feet, then lower again. Repeat until desired picture surface position is attained.
