When using your video equipment, basic safety precautions
should always be followed, including the following:
1. Read and understand all instructions before using.
2. Position the cord so that it will not be tripped over, pulled, or
contact hot surfaces.
3. If an extension cord is necessary, a cord with a current rating
at least equal to that of the appliance should be used. Cords
rated for less amperage than the appliance may overheat.
4. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble this
appliance. Contact an authorized service dealer when repair
work is required. Incorrect reassembly can cause electric
shock when the appliance is used subsequently.
5. The use of an accessory attachment not recommended by
the manufacturer may cause a risk of ire, electric shock, or
injury to persons.
Save These Instructions

3-conductor 2024 gauge wire can be used in place of the
supplied RJ14 cable to connect the wall switch. Connect the BUS
terminals on the wall switch to the corresponding BUS terminals
on the splitter board.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The wall switch is REQUIRED to make any
limit switch adjustments, EVEN if a third party control system is
used. Therefore, it is advised to wire the switch or provide a
3-conductor connection that is accessible.

120V Wiring Diagram with Optional Built-In Video Projector Interface
CAUTION: The projector must be turned of before
connecting the trigger wires to the projector. Failure to do
so may damage the controller.
ATTENTION: Le projecteur doit être éteint avant de brancher
les ils de déclenchement à celui-ci. Tout manquement à
cette instruction pourrait endommager le contrôleur.
Use 2-conductor 2024 gauge wire to extend the low voltage
connection from the projector’s 5 or 12-volt screen trigger output
to the length required to reach the VPI. When extending the low
voltage connection from the projector’s screen trigger output
polarity does not matter. The red and black wires from the VPI
are interchangeable.
