Preparation
Note: It requires two people to assemble an IDEA Screen. To
maintain optimal projected image geometry and screen
alignment, a lat and straight wall free from obstructions and
angular distortions should be used.
Tools Required For Assembly
Phillips Screwdriver Level Rubber Mallet Measuring Tape
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.

Wall Mounting Instructions for Screens with 24” Marker Tray
NOTE: The screen is shipped with two wall brackets. Screens in
widths of 84 ¾” and below receive (2) 28” wall brackets. Screens
above 84 ¾” in width receive (2) 44” wall brackets. Use
appropriate mounting hardware for the wall type and to
accommodate for the screen’s hanging weight (Figure 2).
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 2) .
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 2).
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 3).

Cleaning
The supplied cleaning cloth can be used to clean marks on the screen surface made by everyday dry erase marker usage. Use clean or
dry sections of the microiber cloth when erasing the screen. This is important to prevent smearing on the screen while cleaning. To
clean persistent marks from dry erase markers, use the supplied Da-Lite spray cleaner and cleaning cloth. Windex Original spray cleaner
can be used to remove tough to clean or smeared areas. To clean permanent markers and other unintentional marks on the surface,
use the supplied Da-Lite spray cleaner and cleaning cloth or a melamine foam cleaning pad.
