How to install Da-Lite Tensioned Large Cosmopolitan Electrol 208" Electric Projection Screen

• Confirm the installation site: verify structural support for the screen weight, ensure the wall or ceiling can accommodate a ceiling- or wall-mounted electric screen, and check that there is adequate clearance for full travel of the screen housing.
• Prepare the mounting surfaces: locate joists or structural supports if mounting to a ceiling, or secure to a solid wall surface. Use the provided installation template to mark anchor points accurately.
• Attach mounting brackets: install the mounting brackets to the ceiling or wall per the template, ensuring the brackets are level and securely fastened with appropriate hardware for the surface type (wood, concrete, or hollow wall anchors as required).
• Mount the screen housing: lift and align the projection screen housing with the brackets. Secure the housing firmly, re-check leveling, and verify that the travel clearance around the housing is unobstructed for full extension and retraction.
• Make electrical connections: connect the screen’s power supply to a dedicated 120V AC circuit (as required by local electrical code). Ensure there is a convenient control option (remote or switch) within reach of typical operation zones while maintaining safety and cable management to avoid trip hazards.
• Install control options and test: pair the remote or wall switch with the screen’s motor, then power on to test the extension and retraction. Verify that the screen travels smoothly to its deployed and stowed positions without binding or noise, and adjust any limits as needed according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
• Final adjustments and cleaning: confirm the screen is level and that the surface remains free of wrinkles once deployed. Clean the projection surface only with manufacturer-approved methods, avoiding abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the finish.
