We recommend having 2 people set up the SilverScreen System for ease and safety.
1. Open the tripod stands by loosening the lower knob and separate the legs until fully
extended. Tighten the lower knob to secure. Repeat this step for the second stand and
position it approximately 9 feet away from the first stand.
2. Attach one end of the screen into the top hole of the tripod stand using a hex bolt,
and twist knob. Push the Hex bolt through the top hole of the screen and secure to the
tripod with the twist knob. Do not fully tighten yet! Repeat this step for the other side.
3. Attach the Eye Bolt into the first hole of the tripod stand under the screen. Secure in
place using a twist knob. Repeat this step for the other side.
4. Adjust the screen height by loosening the adjustment knob on the tripod stand. While
holding the top tube of the stand, remove the safety lock pin. Raise the tube up a
couple holes at a time and reinsert the safety lock pin. Tighten the knob to secure the
tube. Repeat this step for the other side.
5. Now that the screen is at the desired height, fully tighten down the twist knobs securing
the screen to the tripod stands.
6. From the center of the stand take one large step out and twist one stake into the
ground 3 feet to your left and the other stake 3 feet to your right. Repeat this step for the
other side.
7. Hook the first tie down strap into the eyebolt at the top of the stand and connect its
other end to the rear twist stake. Connect the second tie down strap to the hook of the
first strap and connect the bottom end to the front tie down stake. Pull straps to tighten
Repeat this step for the other side.
8. Attach the active speaker to the tripod stand on the right side. There is a hole in the
bottom of each speaker that will mount on top of the tripod stand. Tighten the knob on
the back of the speaker to secure. Repeat this for the passive speaker on the left side.
This will require the use of a step stool or ladder to mount the speakers.
9. Plug in the screen power cord into the 3-way plug adaptor, then plug the 3-way plug
adaptor into the extension cord. Plug in the extension cord and lower the screen.
10. Secure the bottom of the screen by attaching a bungee cord to the screen’s bottom
eyelet and wrapping it around the base of the tripod.
Repeat this step for the other side.

We recommend having 2 people and a step ladder to set up the Speakers for ease and safety.
1. Attach the active speaker to a tripod stand. There is a hole in the bottom of each speaker that
will mount on top of the tripod. Secure it in place by tightening the knob on the back of the
speaker. If the speaker does not fit on the tripod stand easily, make sure the knob is fully loosened.
Repeat this for the passive speaker on the same side.
2. Plug the power cord into the back of the active speaker. Plug the other end into the 3-way plug
adaptor. Now, plug the ¼” metal connector end of the speaker cable into the output that is
labeled “Speaker Out”. Run the other end of the cable to the passive speaker and push and twist
the blue plastic connector to lock into place in the port labeled “Input”.
3. Take the RCA cord and plug it into the “Line In” port on the back of the active speaker.
4. Run the end of the extension cord back to your projection station along with the RCA cord
about 10-15 feet in the front center of the screen and plug the extension cord into the outlet strip.

Setting Up Your Speakers
Setting Up Your Projector Station
1. Set up a small table about 10-15 feet centered in front of the screen. You may have to adjust
the distance slightly depending on the type of media you are projecting and the screen size you
have. You can also use the projector’s zoom, focus, and keystone controls to fine tune the
projection.
2. Place the projector on the case and plug in its power cord. Connect the Amazon Fire Stick (or
other media source) to one of the HDMI Inputs of the back of the projector.
3. Connect the RCA cord to the 3.5mm adaptor and plug in the adaptor to the headphone jack
on the projector.
4. Plug the Projector and Amazon Fire Stick to the Multi-Outlet Strip and power up! Your system is
ready to use!

Run Into Trouble?
Read These Super Helpful Hints!
Volume Controls
There are 2 ways to control the volume on your system! We’ve found this is the best place
to start! We don’t typically recommend using the projector or speaker remotes. Instead,
use the back of your active speaker as your main volume control.
1. Make sure the volume is all the way up on the projector! The sound leaves the projector
and goes out to the speakers. So, if you don’t have sound, it’s probably down all the way
on the projector.
2. Set your speaker volume to a quarter on the back of the active speaker to start. You
can always adjust it later but it’s best to start there, so you aren’t startled by the sound!
You can always crank it up!
Speaker Mode Settings
The speakers have 2 “Modes”, “Bluetooth” and “FM Radio”. Keep it set to “Bluetooth”.
Even though the speakers are hard-wired that is the correct setting. The speakers know to
bypass searching for a Bluetooth signal if you don’t have any devices paired to it. It will
default to the “Line In” automatically.
Amazon Fire Stick
We recommend you set Up your Fire Stick beforehand inside on a TV. Log Into all your
apps and connect to your Wi-Fi so it’s ready to go when you want to stream content!
Using Other Media Sources
You can use any media that connects with and HDMI cord! Try out video game systems,
laptops, phones, cable, anything!
