Setting up Wired Screen Using Moab
DC Wire Diagram Illustrating Inital Setup
5. If the screen is wired with wired communication or 485 control, it will include a motor control board,
Moab. This control board allows for setting limits and/or controling the screen. Typically, this board is
located in the head end/equipment location. See the wiring chart on page 11 to determine maximum
wire length.
6. Upper and lower limits are already factory-set. Once all connections are made including the power
supply, you may now adjust the lower limits using the Moab control board.

By removing the cover during installation, inspection of the roll and screen material are possible.
SERVICING NOTES:
• Depending on the mounting, removal and reinstallation of the screen may be required to access the
end cap locking screw.
• Before removing the tube, ensure all wireless battery screens are put to sleep. See page 22.
• A best practice is to remove the screen from the levers to minimize risk to the screen during
servicing; place the screen on a clean, at surface.
• Beware of obstructions when removing cover; if there is an obstruction, unlatch the levers,
disconnect wiring, and remove screen off the brackets to service, laying on a clean, at surface.
1a. To service the Solo 3, begin by loosening the end cap-locking screw on each end cap.
1b. To unlatch the cassette face and access the motor and screen material, hold the end caps level and
push upwards on each side of the cassette face. Unless two installers are available to each unlatch
one side of the cassette face, unlatching one side at a time is recommended.
The cassette face can be felt and heard disconnecting from the locking screw.

2. Drop the screen to lower limit to reduce the diameter of the roll, lessening the chance of screen
material interference when removing the cover. To remove the cover, pull the cover towards yourself,
rotating upwards slightly.
Inspection of the roll and accesss to the motor and screen material are now available with the
cover removed.

2. Material tube removal from the cassette:
Locate the motor side of the material tube; push toward the opposite, idler side. The idler spring will
depress and disengage, allowing disengagement of the motor (connector) side from the end caps.
Once the motor side clears the end cap, pull the tube assembly away from the idler to complete
removal.
NOTE: At least two people are required to safely perform tube removal.
NOTE: The screen system is now ready for any service.
If any concerns on swapping the motors or material tube arise, call SI Screen Support at
512.832.6939 or email [email protected]

SERVICING SOLO 3 375 – TUBE INSTALLATION
To reinstall the material roll, begin by seating the motor head into the motor end cap.
1. To ensure correct t of the motor head, pay particular attention that the rubber noise isolators are
fully seated in their corresponding end cap recesses.
2. Fully depress the spring-loaded idler; pivot the tube until the idler is in-line with the idler bearing.
The idler can be released once it has cleared the edge of the end cap.
NOTE: Reverse roll screen end caps have additional channels; should the idler engage one of these
channels, use a screw driver to depress the idler and shift into the correct bearing.

3. To level Solo 3 375 models, note that the idler bearing is positioned on a spring loaded plate that
moves up and down. To level this model, set the plate to the appropriate position and tighten
using the hole at the bottom of the end cap.
