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

PRE-INSTALLATION

1. Carefully unpack screen and remove outer wrapping from case.
2. Make sure to recheck measurements of screen location before installation.

FIGURE 1

CASE INSTALLATION

1. The case provides multiple attachment points for bolts, cables, or threaded rod. Page 7 shows threaded rod installed. The variable position-mounting bracket may be located anywhere along the length of the case. It is recommended to keep the brackets spaced evenly enough to distribute the weight of the screen. The case has a self-trimming flange around the bottom. Ceiling tiles or drywall may be placed on top of this flange to provide a finished appearance.
2. After securing the case in the ceiling check that the case is level and plumb.
3. Install electrical connections that apply to your unit. Refer to the following diagrams for proper installation. The diagrams on page 4 are for standard controls; the diagrams on page 5 are for SCB100 controls and page 6 for SCB200 controls. The terminal block for the wall switch connections is located under the metal housing surrounding the junction box. Remove two screws for access.

If your screen was shipped with the motor and roller already installed proceed to step 6.

1. Remove the screw from each end of the access door (front door) and open the door. See figure 1.
2. Carefully unpack screen and roller assembly. Leave packing paper on the roller.
3. Place the roller assembly into the case with the motor on the left side. The limit switches should be facing down. Line up the square pin on the motor with the square hole in the bracket.
4. Lift the pin end (right end) of the roller into position and slide the bracket onto the roller pin. Tighten two nuts to secure the bracket.
5. Complete electrical hook-up by snapping motor wire connector into case connector.

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

1. Carefully remove tape strips securing picture surface around roller. Slat should move freely (Fig. 2). (Only if the roller assembly is preinstalled.)
2. Test installation by operating the screen several times. Be prepared to stop the screen. Standard Duty Cycle: 1 MIN. ON/3 MIN. OFF. The fabric door (rear door) will not close until the wall switch is placed in the up position and when the screen motor stops at its limit switch in the up direction.

NOTE: Excessive continuous operation may cause the motor to overheat. If this happens the motor will shut off until it cools to a normal operating temperature.

1. Run the screen down enough to open the fabric door. Close the access door and reinstall the screws to secure the door.

SCREEN ADJUSTMENT

RECALIBRATION

The screen controller (standard control, not SCB100 or SCB200) is factory calibrated to control the screen and door sequence timing. If the line voltage varies 10% or more from the factory setting, the door will not close properly and the unit will need to be recalibrated. The steps are:

1. The screen surface must be all the way up
2. Press and hold the stop button for 10 seconds

The screen will then run through a whole cycle and be recalibrated upon completion. Press "up" button to close door after recalibration.

If the screen limit switch setting is changed in the up direction, the unit must be recalibrated. Surface travel is stopped automatically in the fully opened and closed positions by limit switches that are factory set 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 5/32" Allen wrench to make adjustments.

MORE SCREEN DROP

1. Place operating switch in "down" position.
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.

CAUTION: Do not adjust for more drop than what was ordered. At least 1-1/2 wraps of fabric must remain on the roller. This screen comes standard with 0'' or 2'' black at the top. See the specification data sheet for details.
3. Recalibrate according to above instructions. Press "up" button to close door after recalibration.

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.
4. Recalibrate according to above instructions. Press "up" button to close door after recalibration.
