The screen will arrive in three separate cardboard boxes. One box will be very long and will house the 4.75” x 8.00” top and bottom main frame parts, the 1.50” x 1.50” frame parts, hardware and wall switch. The second cardboard box will house the 4.75” x
8.00” side main frame parts. The third cardboard box will house the fabric for the Curved Da-Snap Screen.
Have space for this available on a lat clean surface such a large table or loor. The work area should be larger than the frame size. If the loor is used, clean papers should be spread to keep all dirt from the screen surfaces. Do not use newspaper..
Tools Required for Installation
Phillips Screwdriver
1/8” Allen Wrench

Da-Snap Frame Assembly
1. Inside each box the frame pieces will be individually paper
wrapped and taped. Remove all paper from pieces.
Do not use a utility knife to remove paper from pieces.
2. Unpack the 1.50” x 1.50” frame parts and fabric from the
cardboard boxes. DO NOT unroll the screen surface at this time.
3. Slide the frame pieces together at corners. Secure frame
pieces with #10 black screws provided. Do not tighten screws until all are started, and then tighten (Figure 1).
NOTE: The frame pieces are labeled “TOP” and “BOTTOM”. Be
sure the frame pieces are assembled according to the labels. This will ensure the snap pattern on the frame and screen surface will match.
Corner
4. Unroll the screen on a clean surface. Do not use newspaper. Place screen surface over the frame, and while holding the frame with one hand, snap the screen surface onto the frame with the other hand while maintaining a steady pull on the surface. Start with the four corners.
5. Set assembly aside; it will be attached to the main frame.

10. Remove tape from the black steel wire tension cable located at the bottom left side assembly. Remove wire tie from the cable assembly. Run black steel wire tension cable down around pulley at end and bring back towards the end. You may have to pull slightly hard and clip the tension cable to the eyebolt secured in the slat bar as shown in Figure 9. Be careful not to pinch your ingers in the spring. Repeat this step for bottom right corner of screen.
Note for 192" Wide Screens Only: Move black steel wires
away from the front of the screen over and behind the steel pin located between the end of the aluminum guide track and the pinch guard.
11. Remove tape from the black steel wire tension cable located at the top left side assembly. Remove wire tie from the cable assembly. This cable assembly will have an extra safety wire
ran through the spring. Run black steel wire tension cable down around pulley at end and bring back towards the end.
You may have to pull slightly hard and clip the tension cable
to the eyebolt secured in the slat bar as shown in Figure 10. Be careful not to pinch your ingers in the spring. Repeat this step for top right corner of screen.
Note for 192" Wide Screens Only: Move black steel wires
away from the front of the screen over and behind the steel pin located between the end of the aluminum guide track and the pinch guard.

Curved Multi Format Imager Installation – Wall Mount
1. The screen is shipped with one wall hanger board. Two small brackets are included to hold the frame securely to wall at the bottom.
2. The wall hanger board must be mounted into at least four wall studs; it must be horizontally leveled.
3. Secure wall hanger board to wall studs at the desire height. Drill holes and attach wall hanger board into wall. You will need about 3” clearance above the top surface of the board. It is recommended to use a 1/4” x 21/2” lag screw and
1/4" lat washer (not supplied) to fasten the board to wall.
NOTE: the top surface of the wall hanger board will align the
top surface of the screen.
4. This step must be done by a lifting device or enough people to safely lift the weight of the screen over the wall hanger board. Lift the screen about 3” over the wall hanger board.
Wood Guide
Wall Hanger Board
5. Align the wood guide of the board with the metal guide of the screen. Make sure the sides of the screen are located at the same distance from the wall.
6. Move the screen until slightly touches the wall and let it come down slowly until it rests on the metal brackets. There is a lip on the back of the frame that slides down on the surfaces of the two metal brackets.
7. Attach two small brackets to the bottom of the frame with two #10 x 3/8” button head screws. Secure brackets to wall with two screws (not supplied).
8. Attach two side covers with (6) #10 x 3/8” button head screws.

Figure 18.
7. To adjust how far the mask travels outward towards the middle of masking screen, press and hold the down tactile button until the LED on back of switch turns solid red. This will put the motor in limit set mode. Turn the wall switch over and use the down button on front of switch. Press and hold until the desired travel position is reached. If you travel to far outward you can press the up to move mask inward. If you press and let go of either up or down button the motor will do a small jog in that direction for iner adjustment of mask. Once desired position is reached turn switch over press and hold the down tactile button until the LED on back of switch blinks red twice. The outward travel limit is now set.
8. To adjust how far the mask travels inwards away from the middle of making screen, press and hold the up tactile button until the LED on back of switch turns solid green. This will put the motor in limit set mode. Turn the wall switch over and use the up button on front of switch. Press and hold until the desired travel position is reached. If you travel to far inward
you can press the down to move the mask outward. If you
press and let go of either up or down button the motor will do a small jog in that direction for iner adjustment of mask. Once desired position is reached turn switch over press and hold up tactile button until the LED on back of switch blinks green twice. The inward travel limit is now set.
9. To test limit switch setting, press and release the up or down button on the wall switch to operate the mask.
10. To adjust travel of right mask. Unplug the 6P4C cable from the QEYE of primary splitter and plug into the QEYE of secondary splitter.
11. Locate the two tactile buttons on the back of the switch.
They are square silver with black round buttons as shown in
Figure 18.
12. To adjust how far the mask travels outward towards the middle of masking screen, press and hold the up tactile button until the LED on back of switch turns solid green. This will put the motor in limit set mode. Turn the wall switch over and use the up button on front of switch. Press and hold until the desired travel position is reached. If you travel to far outward you can press the down to move mask inward. If
you press and let go of either up or down button the motor
