eliminate the need for a direct line of sight and has a
range of 100 feet.
2. IR “Eye” Receiver (Item E, Fig 2): The IR “Eye”
Receiver plugs directly into the screen’s RJ-45 input
to present a low-profile line-of-sight control option
for your IR remote control. It is an extended eye-
receiver to accommodate a recessed ceiling
installation.
4. 3-Way Wall Switch (Item C, Fig 3): The 3-way wall switch is a wall mounted control box with an

4. 5-12 volt trigger (Item D, Fig 4): The built-in 5-
12V trigger input allows your screen to
synchronize its drop & rise with the projector’s
power cycle. The screen deploys when the
projector powers up and will retract when the
projector powers down. The 5-12 volt RJ45
cable connects t
5. o your projector’s trigger output via a separate
cable that may or may not be provided by the
manufacturer of the projector. The trigger
feature will not work without an output cable
from the projector, but it can be tested by
connecting the Red (+) and Green (-) cable to a
9-volt battery.
6. Wireless 5-12 volt trigger (Item F, Fig 5): The
RF remote control serves as a dual purpose,
independently as a handheld remote control, or as a
Wireless 5-12 volt trigger using the trigger cable.
The radio frequency technology can be programmed
to send a wireless signal that synchronizes screen
drop & rise with the projector’s power cycle.
Here’s how to set up your Wireless 5-12 volt trigger | Synchronization Instructions
Step1: Connect one end of the 3.5 mm wireless 5-12 volt trigger cable to the RF remote.
Step 2: Connect the other 3.5 mm end of the wireless 5-12 volt trigger cable to your projector
Step 3: Make sure to unplug your screen from the power outlet
Step 4: Hold the UP button on your RF remote
Step 5: While holding the UP button, plug the screen back to the power outlet
Step 6: Wait 5 seconds and then release the UP button
Step 7: Your 5-12V wireless trigger should now be activated with your screen and ready to be used and able to
control your screen with your projector’s power cycle
Repeat the steps again if not successful.
