When using your video equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:
1. Read and understand all instructions before using.
2. 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.
3. The use of an accessory attachment not recommended by
the manufacturer may cause a risk of ire, electric shock, or
injury to persons.
4. Do NOT lift or push up on the camera arm mechanism at any
time. This may cause improper operation and/or component
failure or injury to persons.
Multi Vision Imager Assembly
Preparation: 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 Assembly: Phillips screwdriver, 1/8" Allen Wrench.
The screen will arrive in two separate cardboard boxes. One box will be very long and will house the 61/4" x 8" top and bottom main
frame parts, the 11/2" x 11/2" frame parts, hardware and wall switch. The smaller cardboard box will house the side main frame parts and
the fabric for the Da-Snap Screen.
Da-Snap Frame Assembly
1. Unpack the 11/2" x 11/2" frame parts and fabric from
the cardboard boxes. DO NOT unroll the screen surface
at this time.
2. Slide the frame pieces together at corners. (Note: Frame
assembly holes may not appear to it properly at the corners
until all fasteners have been attached. Once fasteners are
attached, the frame corners will be drawn in for a proper it).
Secure frame pieces with #10 black screws provided. Do not
tighten screws until all are started, and then tighten.
See 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.
3. Unroll the screen on a clean surface. Do not use newspaper.
Place the frame over the screen surface, and while lifting 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.
4. Set assembly aside; it will be attached to the main frame.

1. The main frame pieces are individually paper wrapped and
taped. Remove all paper from the pieces.
Do Not Use A Utility Knife To Remove Paper
2. Lay frame pieces out on the loor or table as shown in
Figure 2. The top frame assembly has the roller, motor and
tensioned fabric attached to it. The right side frame assembly
has the junction box attached to it.
3. Assemble left side of frame to the top and bottom of frame.
The large L brackets will slide into the aluminum extrusion
while the small L brackets will slide into the aluminum
channel. Use #10 x 3/8" button head screws to attach parts.
See Figure 2.
4. Using an 1/8" Allen wrench tighten screws. Adjust screws
so that the front surfaces evenly match at the corners.
5. Assemble right side of frame to the top and bottom of frame.
This is done exactly the same way as the left side.
6. Insert motor phone RJ45 jack into receptacle located
at the top of the junction box. Insert motor cable connector
to the connector located on the side of junction box.
7. Remove the shipping braces by removing #10 x 3/8" sheet
metal screws from the aluminum slat. Two of these screws
will be used later to “WALL MOUNT” screen to wall. Remove
black knobs and shipping braces. Carefully let the slat rest on
the inside of the top frame. Save the knobs, they will be used
to attach the Da-Snap frame to the main frame.
8. Carefully slide the Da-Snap frame inside the main frame as
per Figure 3. First, slide the bottom of frame under the
bottom bracket, then the top, under the top bracket(s). Make
sure the tensioned screen is not hit by the top of the Da-Snap
frame. Lift Da-Snap frame against the inside top and bottom
brackets, align holes and attach with black knobs.
At this point, preparations are needed to provide electrical power
to unit; see “ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION” and wiring diagrams
on pages 4 and 5.

1. The screen is shipped with two 46" wall brackets. Screens
with less than 87" viewing area width (not standard sizes)
are shipped with one wall bracket. Two small “L” brackets
are included to hold frame securely to wall at bottom.
2. Each wall bracket must be mounted into at least two wall
studs. Check to make sure both brackets are horizontally level
with each other. The distance between the outside ends of
the two wall brackets is the overall length of the top main
frame minus 20". See Table 1 for standard bracket distances.
If your screens viewing width is under 87" wide, center the
single wall bracket with the frame.
3. Secure large wall bracket(s) to wall studs at the desired
height. Make sure the brackets are level. Drill holes and
attach mounting brackets into wall. You will need at least
4" clearance above the drilled holes to hang the screen. It is
recommended to use a 1/4" x 11/2" lag screws (not supplied)
to fasten the brackets to wall.
4. This step must be done by a lifting device or enough people
to safely lift the weight of the screen over the wall brackets;
see chart of weights above. Hang the screen on the wall
brackets as shown on Figure 4. There is a lip on the back of
the frame that wedges itself into the wall brackets once fully
installed on brackets.
5. Attach two small L brackets to the bottom of the frame with
two #10 x 3/8" sheet metal screws and secure to wall with two
screws (not supplied).

to far down you can press the up to move the screen upward.
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
screen. Once desired position is reached turn switch over
press and hold down tactile button until the LED on back of
switch blinks red twice. The down limit is now set.
4. To adjust the up limit switch, 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 up
you can press the down to move the screen downward.
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
screen. 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 up limit is now set.
5. To test limit switch setting, press and release the up or down
button on the wall switch to operate the screen.
6. Replace switch and cover plate on the wall.
NOTE: If the screen is in limit set mode and no buttons are
pushed for 20 seconds, the LED on the back of the wall
switch will turn of, the motor will return to run mode and no
changes will be saved. If this occurs, return to step 3 for down
limit adjustment or step 4 for up limit adjustment.
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.
Screen Adjustment For 220V/240V Screens
1. Remove the cover plate from the 3-button wall switch and
remove the switch from the junction box.
2. Locate small 3-position switch on back of wall switch.
(See Figure 6)
3. To adjust the down limit switch, slide the 3-position switch to
the down position. Press and hold the down button to run
the screen down to the desired stop position. Release the
button to stop the screen. DO NOT PUSH THE STOP BUTTON.
4. When the screen is in the desired down position, slide the
3-position switch to the of (center) position. The down limit
switch is now set.

up position. Press and hold the up button to run the screen
up to the desired stop position. Release the button to stop
the screen. DO NOT PUSH THE STOP BUTTON.
6. When the screen is in the desired up position, slide the
3-position switch to the of (center) position. The up limit
switch is now set.
7. To test limit switch setting, make sure the 3-position switch is
in the of (center) position. Press and release the up or down
button on the wall switch to operate the screen.
8. Replace switch and cover plate on the wall.
NOTE: If stop button is pressed, the wall switch will reverse
direction. To correct this, press the stop button again. This will
reset the switch. You will have to re-set both the up and the
down settings.
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
4-conductor connection that is accessible.
