radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment
does harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the
equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the
following measures.
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna of the device which may be causing interference

1. 5-12V Trigger: The built-in 5-12V trigger input for
your new Evanesce Tension allows your screen to
synchronize its drop and rise with the projector's power
cycle. The screen drops when the projector powers up and
retracts when the projector powers down. The 5-12 volt
adaptor connects to your projectors trigger output via a
separate cable that may or may not be provided by the
projector manufacture. The trigger feature will not work
without an output cable from the projector, but it can be
tested using a 9-volt battery by simply connecting the Red
(+) and Green (-) cable to the 9-volt battery.
2. 3-way switch and IR (Infrared) Eye Receiver: The 3-way Wall Box switch enables the consumer to manually
operate the screen's drop/rise capabilities. The IR “eye” protrudes from the bottom of the casing to present a low profile
line-of-sight control option for your IR remote. It is a low-visibility alternative to using the 3-wall switch and its ability to
protrude from the bottom of the screen allows line-of-sight control even in a recessed ceiling installation.
Both accessories require connection to the RJ-45 port and can only be used one at a time.

3. Infrared (IR) and Radio Frequency (RF) Remote Controls: Although the IR remote requires a direct line of sight
with the IR sensor to function, the screen’s case can be hidden from sight and operated using the RF remote. When
depressing the directional buttons you should hear a faint click signifying that the mechanism is working properly.

1. Installation:
1. Measure and cut the ceiling installation space. The width should not exceed 120mm. Please refer to
the length on the screen size table (C3).
Note: The length of the installation space is not greater than the screen size table (C3), and the width is
not less than the screen size table (A5). Consult the table below (C1) in regards to accommodating the
screen casing.
2. Drill 4 holes in the ceiling that correspond with the attachments on the various casing sizes.

3. The expanding bolts (A) mount into thick wood beams, stone or concrete and will support the
screen. Use the Socket wrench (G) to attach the hexagonal screws (D). The expanding bolts should be
firmly tightened and tested to make sure that they will hold the weight of the screen.
5. Push the screen up into the space. Use the threaded rods (B) to attach the screen assembly to the
ceiling. The hexagonal screws (D) will connect the screen to the rest of the assembly. Once firmly in
place, use the nuts (C) to ensure a firm connection. Use the socket wrench (H) to make sure that the bolts
are firmly tightened.

FAQ’S
1. Q: What are the differences between the IR and RF remotes?
A: An IR （Infra-Red）remote is designed for short distance use, like your typical
television remove. IR requires direct aim at the IR receiver inside your 3-way wall
box. RF remote control is designed for long distance use. The RF code is unique only
work to your 3-way wall switch that also came with you screen. If the RF remote
control is lost or destroyed, the entire 3-way wall switch will need to be replaced in
order to continue having RF control.
2. Q: How is the screen material cleaned?
A: The screen material can be cleaned with mild soap and water only. Do not use
cleaning substances, chemicals, or abrasives as will damage the screen material.
3. Q: What type of batteries do the remote controls use?
A: The IR and RF remote controls use AAA alkaline batteries.
4. Q: Can you manually pull down this electric screen?
A: Absolutely not, manually pulling down the screen will damage the electronic
motor rolling system.
5．Q：What is the recommended distance my first row of viewers should be at?
A: The recommended minimum distance should equal the diagonal width of your
screen viewing surface. However, this may vary depending on the projector
type and lighting environment.
6Q：How high should I hang the projector screen?
A: The recommend lowest level of the projector screen should at an eye level of
the first row seat.
