Product Description:
The Aeon Series is a fixed frame projection screen that uses Elite’s EDGE FREE® technology. The EDGE FREE®
design resembles a giant size flat panel TV display. The Aeon includes a bezel trim to further enhance the frame
appearance and absorb projector overshoot. An optional LED kit is available for backlighting.
Congratulations on your new Aeon CineGrey 3D® AT purchase! The ISF Certified CineGrey 3D® AT is an
ambient and ceiling light rejecting (ALR/CLR®) front projection screen material that is perforated for acoustic
transparency. It is precisely formulated for environments with minimal control over room lighting. It was designed
to enhance picture brightness, offer accurate color fidelity, improve contrast and allow sound to pass through.
In order for the CineGrey 3D® AT material to maintain its projection qualities and provide optimum performance

Frame Assembly
Step 1: Place the included soft padded EPE sponge sheet on a clean area where the screen will be assembled.
Step 2: Position the pieces of the frame on the EPE sponge in the arrangement shown below
Step 3: Insert center joint (a/b) connectors into one-half of the horizontal frame (B/C) and secure with the M4x7
screws (M) as shown in the illustration below.
Step 4: Connect the elbow joints (c/d) to the top and bottom sections of the vertical frame. Once inserted, connect
the vertical sections to the horizontal frame sections. Make sure all holes are in alignment and the frame pieces are
flush (no gaps). They should form perfect right angles.
Step 5: Secure the elbow joints by fastening them with M4x7 screws ( g) , 4 at each corner.

Step 8: Carefully and gently place the assembled frame on top of the screen material in the marked areas as shown
below. Make sure to not allow the angle edge of the frame to come in direct contact with the screen material to avoid
puncturing it.
Step 9: Hook one end of the spring and secure inside the groove of the frame, use the spring hook (h) to attach the
spring to the hole located on the screen material’s outer edge in the following order.
Begin by first attaching the center points on both vertical (left/right) sides, steps 1-2. Then the center points on both
horizontal (top/bottom) sides, steps 3-4. Once all center points have been secured, make sure the screen material is
still within the marked areas before proceeding to attach the next springs.
Continue attaching the rest of the springs to the material in the following order in steps 5-12.

To avoid ripples forming in the material it is imperative that all of the corners are properly wrapped around the
edges as illustrated in the check mark diagrams.

JA04012020 www.elitescreens.com U-00157 6
Note (after all springs have been attached):
Correct material installation –Corners of the screen material are properly wrapped around the corner edges of the
frame and material is evenly tensioned and flat, creating a nicely taut surface.
Incorrect material installation –The corners of the screen material are not properly wrapped along the edge of the
frame leaving the material with unbalanced tension and an uneven finish. To correct, detach springs from material at
the corner(s) where material does not lie flat along the edge of the frame, reposition the material so that it lies flat
and wraps along the edge of the frame, and reattach springs to the material.
Center Support Bar
Step 10: Insert the Center Support Bar (o) into the upper top groove on the back of the frame with the bottom end
near the approximate center point of the frame and rotate it in at an angle so that both ends of the bar are in alignment
with the groove.
Diagonal Sizes of 150” and below use 1 x Center Support Bar
Attention: Do not proceed with the Edge Trim installation until making sure there are no ripples in the material.
How to avoid getting ripples on the screen’s material surface
Solution: Pull and smooth out the material using your hand from the center to the corners, creating a nicely taut
surface as shown below.

Notice to Installer:
Please use the following installation instructions to obtain superior optical performance from the
CineGrey 3D®Angular Reflective ALR (Ambient Light Rejecting) Screen.
Make sure to follow these instructions in order for the CineGrey 3D®to perform correctly.
1. Ambient Light must not come from the same direction as the projector’s light
2. Minimum Lens Throw Ratio of 0.8ximage width
Note: To use short-throw projectors, you will need a minimum 0.8 lens throw ratio or greater
3. Not compatible with Ultra-Short Throw Projectors
Projector Ceiling Installation: Make sure the projector (light in) is angled (ϴ1) to reflect (ϴ2) at the mirror-
opposite angle (light out) to align with the viewer’s eye level.
Projector Tabletop: Make sure the projector (light in) is angled (ϴ1) to reflect (ϴ2) at the mirror-opposite angle
(light out) to align with the viewer’s eye level.
Images are not up to scale and are for illustrations purposes only.
Note: Improper installation will result in light loss and produce a dark image. This is due to the projector’s light
reflecting in the wrong direction.

Wall Installation
Step 13: Measure the overall length and height of the frame and drill holes for the top brackets. Line up the wall
brackets with the drilled holes on the installation location and screw them in using a Phillips screwdriver. If not
installing into a structural wood stud, use a hollow wall anchor then screw in the M5x50 wood screws with a
screwdriver. Make sure the brackets are leveled.
Step 14: Position the fixed frame screen onto the top wall brackets as shown below and push down at the center of
the top of the frame to secure.
