Screen Material Installation
1. Lay the screen material completely flat with the front facing down on a clean surface in a horizontal position. The
back side of the screen material should be placed upwards.
Note: The back side of the material has the velcro borders all around the edges.
2. Carefully and gently place the assembled frame on top the screen material 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.
Four corners join correctly to form a perfect
square. Use the included screwdriver (L) to
fasten the Mx15 screws (H) into each corner
by aligning the frame screw holes to the
holes in the elbow joint (A).

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.
•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 is important 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
