Before mounting your Nocturne Exterior Projection Screen, mark build-
ing for placement of mounting brackets and pre-drill mounting holes
and electrical access holes (if necessary) in mounting surface. It is
installer’s responsibility to make sure appropriate fasteners are used for
mounting surface. The Nocturne Exterior Projection Screen is shipped
with screen case assembly complete (see Fig. 1).
Mounting Through Back of Screen Case:
①Remove fascia from screen case. If your unit is equipped with a crank
operator, first remove the crank attachment from the unit, then remove ad-
ditional screws holding fascia onto back/top and rotate fascia up and off of
unit (see Fig. 2).

➁You will then need to find the programming button which is a small
button on the back or side of the transmitter. You will need to de-
press the button for 10-15 seconds. The motor should jog up and
down once then pause and jog a second time during this time
period. Once the motor has completed its second jog, then you can
start at step 1 of initial programming as the motor is clear.
Add/Delete a Channel/Transmitter
Add:
➀Select the channel/transmitter that is currently operating the motor,
then press the programming button until the motor jogs.
➁Select the new channel/transmitter that you want to add to the
motor, then press the programming button until the motor jogs.
➂The motor should now work on both the old and new channel/
transmitter.
Delete:
➀Select the channel/transmitter that is currently operating the motor
and you want to keep, then press and hold the programming button
until the motor jogs.
➁Select the channel/transmitter that you want to remove, then press
and hold the programming button until the motor jogs.
➂The motor should now only work on the channel/transmitter from
step 1.
Adjust Limits in User Mode
If your initial limits have changed or you want to fine tune a motor,
you do not need to reset the motor and re-program it. You can just
change the limits with these steps.
➀Move the motor to the limit (upper or lower) that you want to
change.
➁Press and hold the UP and DOWN buttons until the motor jogs.
➂Move the motor to its new limit location.
➃Press and hold the STOP button until the shade jogs.

RTS Motor/Remote Programming Instructions
If you receive a Nocturne with an optional RTS motor from Draper,
Inc., the motor has no programming on it, so it must be learned and
programmed to work on the transmitter that you have. The limits must
also be set. Here are the initial programming instructions.
➀Connect power to motor. Select the transmitter/channel to which
you plan to learn the motor. Press and hold the UP and DOWN
buttons at the same time until the motor jogs, then release.
➁Check the motor run direction by press either the UP or DOWN
buttons. This is important because if you do step 3 without doing
this step, then you will need to reset the motor. If you need to
reverse the motor direction, then press the STOP button (middle
button which might be labeled MY) for 5 seconds until the motor
jogs. Check the direction again to make sure that it works.
➂Move the motor to its upper limit position. Press the STOP and
DOWN buttons at the same time until the motor starts to move
down, then release. You will stop the motor at its lower limit. You
can use the UP and DOWN buttons to adjust the motor to the
correct lower limit position if need be.
➃Once the motor is at its lower limit position, then press the UP and
STOP buttons at the same time until the motor starts to move up,
then release. The motor should move to the upper limit position in
step 3 and stop.
➄Once the motor has stopped at its upper limit position, then press
and hold the STOP button for 5 seconds until the motor jogs.
➅Now, you must put the motor into USER mode. Find the program-
ming button which is a small button on the back or side of the trans-
mitter and press it until the motor jogs. Once you have done this,
then the motor will operate in normal fashion.
➆Disconnect power to this motor and move to the next in your
installation and start with step 1. Reconnect motor to power when
all motors are programmed.
Reset Motor Instructions
If the motor is not working or responding correctly and you want to
reprogram it from the beginning and clear all previous programming,
then follow these steps.
➀Disconnect the motor from power for 2-5 seconds, reconnect to
power for 10-13 seconds, disconnect from power for 2-5 seconds,
and reconnect to power. The motor should move down a little after
you reconnect to power the last time.
