(Radio

Frequency) and Optional IR (Infrared) Remotes:

The Kestrel Series screen includes both IR

and RF receivers that enable the consumer to use either the RF or an optional IR remote control. The RF

remote is best used when the screen is concealed or long distance control is required. The RF technology

therefore more versatile as it does not require line of to operate the screen. The optional IR requires a

direct line of sight through the screen’s IR receiver window.

Section 6: About Elite Screens

6.1 Company Description

Elite Screens Inc. is a California based company that specializes in making quality commercial and

home-theater projection screens for the retail and custom install sales channels. Our company

began as an innovative venture into the projection market by manufacturing veterans from the

AV/IT industry. Elite Screens quickly established itself as an entry level commercial and home

theater screen manufacturer. This was accomplished by making a quality product cost effective

with a focus on mass-producing screen material, sizes and aspect ratios that were most commonly

preferred by AV customers in general. We focused on uniformity with what would match the

mainstream demographic while including extra features that are not usually included by other

manufacturers. In time, we progressed from just retail sales into the realm of custom

installer/integrator manufacture as our numerous reviews and awards will attest. We stand behind

our product and are so certain of customer satisfaction with the quality of our product that we

offer a 2-year manufacturer's warranty which is twice the industry standard. In our continued

devotion to excellence in products and service, we are committed to implementing green practices

with our production. We have adopted manufacturing methods that promote conservative

regulation of our energy needs. Our simple product designs combined with the expertise of our

permanent staff ensures that our entire line of products are made by experienced hands devoted

to the high standards of today’s audio-video consumer.
