4.5 Screen Operation
Electric Current: Depending upon region, your Elite Screen will operate on 100v, 110v, or 220v voltage.
1. After ensuring the power outlet & screen are compatible (voltage), plug the power cord into the power outlet.
2. Once the screen has power, you’ll be able to control it using any of the 6 methods described below.
6 ways to control your Evanesce
1. IR remote control (Item A, Fig 1): The Infrared functions by direct line of sight contact with a beam range of
30 feet. Aim the IR remote at the “eye” receiver once it has been connected to the control box’s RJ45 port.
2. IR “Eye” Receiver (Item E, Fig 2): The IR “Eye” Receiver plugs directly into the control box’s RJ45 port to
present a low profile line-of-sight control option for your IR remote control even in a recessed ceiling installation.

3. RF Remote Control (Item B): The radio waves eliminate the need for a direct
line of sight with a range of 100 feet.
4. 3-Way Wall Switch (Item C, Fig 3): The 3-way wall switch is a wall mount
switch with an up/stop/down button and plugs directly into the control box’s RJ45 port.
5. 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 to 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 in conjunction with the Wireless 5-12 volt trigger cable. The radio frequency
technology can be programmed to send a wireless signal to synchronize its drop/rise with the projector’s power
cycle.
