Attaching the Screen Material to the Frame
1. Make sure the screen material and frame are both lying face down on a clean, dry, and non-abrasive
surface.
2. Carefully unroll the material inside the frame. (Fig.3)
Please note the material will be noticeably smaller than the frame, as the material must be stretched to create a
sufficient amount of tension for perfect material flatness.
3. Attach the fix plates.
(1)
Stretch the material to the corner and insert the screen material’s edge in the groove of the frame. While
one hand holds the material in place the other hand snaps in the push plate (Fig.4-Fig.5).
(2) Begin by securing the four corners in the following sequence A→B→C→D (Fig.6).
(3) Insert the fix the plates as shown on Fig. 5. Fix plate ① is about 10cm away from the frame’s corner.
Fix plate ② is about 5cm away. (Fig.7)
(Fig. 6)

Polar Star™ Angular Reflective ALR (Ambient Light Rejecting) Screen.
•Angular-Reflective material is not compatible with ultra/short-throw projectors
•Minimum lens throw ratio 1.5x image width
•Ambient light must not come from the same direction as the projector
Since angular-reflective means that the projected image will reflect at the mirror-opposite angle, it
isimportant to position the projector so that the viewer will get the best possible image.
Step 1: Establish the general “eye level” of the viewers
Step 2: Set the appropriate projection level
Step 3: Adjust the screen height level and projection angle
Input Angle (A) = Output Angle (B) aligns with the viewer’s angle
