Proper mounting preparation will ensure a great
installation. Mounting brackets must be level to each
other, and screwed into structural members of some
kind, such as wall studs. You may use wood screws
provided, or other anchors (not provided) capable of
carrying the load, that is suitable to the substrate.
DO NOT MOUNT TO ONLY SHEET ROCK.
Install the Quick Release Brackets
1. Determine the top of the desired viewing area on
the wall.
2. The mounting brackets should be located 1 " + Drop
+ the desired top of viewing height. The factory set
drop is 1”, but may be programmed to be up to 12”.
Ex: 10" Drop + 1 " + 82” viewing area above floor =
93 ” bracket screw height.
NOTE : Maximum drop for Short Throw material is 4".

4. Determine the desired viewing area with vertical
centerline of the projected viewing area.
5. The Solo Pro screen must be installed with the
brackets no more than 10 inches from each end of
the cassette. Measure the overall length of the
cassette to determine the min. and max. horizontal
spacing of the mounts. Mark the location of the quick
mount brackets over a stud and within an appropriate
distance from the ends. If the location of the studs
does not let the screen center match the projector
center, another board or plate will have to be installed
on the wall to take the mount fasteners.
6. Remove the snap-on cover (Item 2) from one of the
supplied quick mounts.

mount. Place a level on the tops of the both quick
mounts to verify that they are indeed level before
installation. Correct if necessary and securely install
the second bracket.

Low Voltage Power Supply
Parts in the box 1. Connect the power supply - Solo Pro with an RTS
motor is shipped with the remote already paired to
the screen. Plug the power supply into the wall and
plug the connectors together.
2. The screen is ready for operation.
RUNNING
Solo Pro is very easy to operate. The RF remote,
supplied with the screen, controls the opening and
closing from up to 40 feet away. Enjoy!
RF controlled projection screens operate at
433.42MHz. Minimize or eliminate any sources of RF
interference and shielding. Any metal, wire, or foliage
can reduce or block the signal - reducing the operating
range of the controls. Other nearby transmitters may
cause interference also.

RTS - RF CONTROL
1. Press the down button on the RF remote to send the
screen to its lower limit.
2. Hold the UP and DOWN buttons simultaneously until
the screen jogs once.
3. Use the DOWN and UP buttons to position the
viewing area vertically, up to 12” (4" for Short Throw)
from the bottom of the cassette.
DO NOT set the lower limit (top of viewing) more
than 12” (4" for Short Throw) from the cassette.
Doing so risks damaging the screen material.
4. Once the viewing area is positioned, hold the STOP
button until the screen jogs once. This saves the new
lower limit. If this Step is not completed, the screen
will jog once after about 3 minutes, indicating that it
is no longer in program mode, and the motor will
only recall the previous lower limit. No changes will
be saved.
PROGRAMMING
Setting the Drop - Solo Pro is factory preset to have 1”
of drop, the distance between the top of the viewing
area and the cassette. The drop can be changed to
be up to 12” (4" for Short Throw) to adjust the viewing
area vertically for image placement. To adjust the drop,
do the following:
1” - 12”
Drop - set by factory at 1". Can be
set up to 12" max."
NOTE: Max. drop for Short Throw is 4".

PAIRING ANOTHER RF REMOTE
If another remote was purchased, it will not come
paired to your screen motor. To pair it, first take the
working remote supplied with the Solo Pro and press
the Program button on the back of the remote until
the screen jogs once. Holding the new remote, briefly
press* the Program button on the back. The screen
will jog once. The new remote is now paired with the
screen.
*A brief press is about ½ second long. Too short or too long of
a button press may not perform the desired operation.
