Preparation
It requires two people to assemble a single panel IDEA Screen and four people to assemble a multiple panel IDEA Panoramic. To
maintain optimal projected image geometry and screen alignment, a lat and straight wall free from obstructions and angular
distortions should be used.
Choose a clean work area for assembly using padded material or other soft, clean materials. The work area should be larger than the
overall screen size and directly in front of the location where the screen is to be installed. Carefully unpack unit and place assembly on top
of the clean work area.

Wall Mounting Instructions for Single Panel Screens
NOTE: The screen is shipped with two 44” wall brackets. Use
appropriate mounting hardware for the wall type and to
accommodate for the screen’s hanging weight (Figure 1).
1. Secure the two wall brackets to wall studs at the desired height.
The outside edge of each wall bracket must be no greater than
5” away from the left and right edges of the frame. You will need
at least 1” clearance above the drilled holes to hang the screen
(Figure 1) .
2. To install the (2) L-brackets, you must measure the overall height
of the screen frame and subtract 1⅛”. Using that dimension,
measure down from the top edge of the wall brackets and mark
the wall for two screw holes. The outside edge of each L-bracket
must be no greater than 5” away from the left and right edges of
the screen frame (Figure 1).
3. Secure the two L-brackets to the wall at the marked locations. The
longest side of the two L-brackets should be pointing upwards
when secured in order to hide the L-brackets behind the screen
frame once the screen is installed.

4. This step requires two people. Hang the screen on the wall
brackets. There is a lip on the back of the frame that wedges itself
into the wall brackets once fully installed. Ensure that the screen
clears the L-brackets and that the screen weight is on the wall
brackets, not the L-brackets.

5. Tap the bottom of the two L-brackets with the rubber mallet until
they make contact with the frame. Secure the two L-brackets to
the frame with the remaining (4) #8 x ½” screws (Figure 2).

Assembly Instructions for Multi-Panel Screens
1. Carefully unpack unit and place all panels on top of the clean
work area. The viewing surface of each panel must face down.
2. Slide each panel together, aligning the both the top and bottom
frames (Figure 3).
3. Find (1) seam brace and remove the release liner from both strips
of adhesive tape.
4. Ensuring that the panels are still in alignment, line up the seam
brace with one of the panel seams with adhesive side facing
down. Do not press adhesive into panels yet. Maintain at least a
small gap between the adhesive and the panel.

Figure 4
5. Use ⅜” open wrench or socket driver and (4) 1032 nuts to attach
seam brace onto the studs on the top and bottom of screen
frame at the panel seam. Tighten all four nuts once attached to
the frame (Figure 4).
NOTE: For optimal seam alignment, hold the panels together
tightly while the seam brace is being adhered and the lock nuts
are being tightened.
6. Press adhesive into panels. Apply steady pressure along the
length of the seam brace to attach irmly.
7. For three panel screens, repeat Steps 36 to attach the second
seam brace.

Wall Mounting for Multi-Panel Screens
NOTE: The screen is shipped with four or six wall brackets that
vary by screen size. Two brackets will be used on each of the
panels. Use appropriate mounting hardware for the wall type and
to accommodate for the screen’s total hanging weight.
1. Secure two panel wall brackets to wall studs at the desired height.
The outside edge of each wall bracket must be no greater than 5”
away from the left or right panel seams. You will need at least 1”
clearance above the drilled holes to hang the screen.
2. Secure the second two panel wall brackets to wall studs at the
height selected in Step 1. Each panel wall bracket should be
centered between the seam brace and left or right outside edge
of the frame when mounted to the wall (Figure 5). If you are
installing a two panel screen, proceed to step 4.
3. Secure the third two panel wall brackets to wall studs at the
height selected in Step 1. Each panel wall bracket should be
centered between the seam brace and left or right outside edge
of the frame when mounted to the wall (Figure 5).
NOTE: Do not proceed if all brackets are not level with each other
or a gap may appear between each of the panels when mounted.
4. To install the panel L-brackets, you must measure the overall
height of the screen frame and subtract 1 1/8”. Using that
dimension, measure down from the top edge of each of the wall
brackets and mark the wall for two screw holes. The outside edge
of each center panel L-bracket must be no greater than 5” away
from the panel seams (Figure 5).
5. Secure the two center panel L-brackets to the wall at the marked
locations. The longest side of the two center panel L-brackets
should be pointing upwards when secured in order to hide the
L-brackets behind the screen frame once the screen is installed
(Figure 5).

6. Repeat Steps 45 to install the remaining L-brackets for the
remaining panels.
NOTE: At this point, all L-brackets will be mounted on the wall; two
L-brackets for each panel. Do not proceed if all L brackets are not
level with each other on the wall.
Steps 78 require at least four people. Place one person on the
far left end of the screen, one person at the left panel seam,
one person at the right panel seam and one person on the far
right end of the screen. More people can be utilized as
needed. When lifting the screen of of the clean work area to
the wall and then onto the wall, it is crucial that the screen
remain coplanar and does not bend at the seams.
CAUTION: Any bend between the panels at the seams may
damage the screen or result in a permanent gap between the
seams.
7. Using all four people, carefully lift the fully assembled multi-panel
screen to an upright position and place underneath the mounted
wall and L-brackets. The screen will be parallel to the wall at the
end of this step.
8. Using all four people, carefully and in a smooth motion lift the
screen to hang it on the four installed wall brackets. There is a lip
on the back of the frame that wedges itself into the wall brackets
once full installed. Ensure that the screen clears all L-brackets and
that the screen weight is on the wall brackets, not the panel
L-brackets.
9. Tap the bottom of the panel L-brackets with the rubber mallet
until they make contact with the frame. Secure the panel
L-brackets to the frame with the remaining (12) #8 x 1/2” screws
(Figure 6).

3. Position the bracket with the touch module along the top of
the IDEA frame according to your system’s installation
drawing. Using the two provided #8 x ½” screws, attach the
bracket and touch module to the IDEA frame with the touch
module facing towards the audience.
IMPORTANT: The vertical surface of the bracket should be
lush to the face of the IDEA frame.
4. Follow the instructions in the installation guide to set up
touch.
