1 Read instructions through completely before proceeding.
2 Follow instructions carefully. Installation contrary to instructions invalidates
warranty.
3 Pick up screen case from ends only. Picking case up at other points will
damage case and may damage fabric.
4 To insure a safe installation, the entire weight of the unit MUST BE
supported by the end-plates.
5 Entire bottom of screen case should be unobstructed to permit access to
bottom panel for making electrical connections or servicing.
6 Screen should be installed level (using a carpenter’s level).
7 Operating switch(es) packed separately in screen carton. Do not discard
with packing material.
8 Screen operates on 220V AC, 50 Hz., 1ph. current.
NOTE: Screen has been thoroughly inspected and tested at factory and found to
be operating properly prior to shipment.
Removing Shipping Brackets
DO NOT OPERATE SCREEN BEFORE REMOVING THESE SHIPPING
BRACKETS FROM THE SCREEN CASE
1 Loosen and remove fasteners from both
bracket clamps attached to the screen case.
2 Run the screen DOWN to expose bracket
clamp fasteners attached to the screen dowel.
3 Loosen screws holding bracket to dowel
endcap enough to remove the bracket.
4 Re-tighten dowel endcap screws.
Regardless of mounting method used, the
following points apply:
1 Screen should be lifted into position only by the end mounting brackets.
Keep case level by lifting end plates simultaneously to prevent surface damage.
Draper provides eyebolts to use in hoisting the screen. DO NOT use eyebolts to
mount screen. Using both mounting holes in the mounting brackets makes for a
much more stable installation. Never attempt to lift screen along its length.
2 The entire weight of the unit MUST BE supported by the end plates to provide
a secure installation. Anchoring of the intermediate case support brackets is
typically only needed to reduce any visible case deflection when the unit is
mounted into a ceiling pocket or ceiling tile opening. For installations that are
not recessed, the amount of case deflection is usually not noticeable.
3 Screen should be positively and securely supported so that vibration or even
abusive pulling will not weaken installation.
4 Installer must insure that fasteners used are of adequate strength and suitable
for the mounting surface chosen. Installer must also insure that wall or
ceiling structure are of adequate strength. Supporting hardware (chains,
cables, rods, etc.) must be essentially vertical.
5 Entire bottom of case must be readily accessible after installation is complete.
6 Front, back and top of case must be straight—not forced to warp or bow. Use
threaded rod and support brackets to keep large cases from warping.
DO NOT use support brackets to support the weight of the screen.
7 Do not use case to support adjacent sections of ceiling.
8 If optional ceiling flange trim kits are attached, use hardware provided.
9 If case is painted, slots on bottom of case should be shielded to protect viewing
surface from paint splatters or overspray.
After the case is mounted, and before the screen is
operated, you will need to remove the shipping spacers
from inside the case. First, remove the closure panel
(see instructions on page 2). You will find the hexagonal
spacers on the motor end — one in front of the roller
and one behind (see Fig. 1) Remove the black
hexagonal pacers with a wrench, taking care not to damage the fabric or loosen the
wiring (see caution note below). Replace the closure panel.
Caution: Screen is shipped with motor wiring mounted to the case. Be careful not to pull
the wiring loose from the case while removing the spacers—if wiring is loose, it could be
damaged during screen operation. If wiring does come loose, re-mount as it was.
Do not seal unit in ceiling until electrical connections have been made and
screen has been operated successfully.

Mounting Screen
Caution
Figure 1 (roller and fabric removed for clarity)
Screen operates on 220V AC, 50 Hz., 1ph. current.
Junction box is located just above the closure panel, at the motor end of screen
(left hand motor location only on Paragon). To properly remove closure panel, two
people should follow the steps on page two of these instructions. The junction
box access plate is held closed with pan head screws and may be opened with a
Phillips screwdriver.
Removal of access plate exposes brown, black and blue pigtail leads and green
internal ground wire per attached wiring diagram.
Screen is shipped with internal wiring complete and control switch(es) fully boxed.
Wire connecting screen to switch(es) and switch(es) to power supply should be
furnished by installer. Connections should be made in accordance with attached
wiring diagram, and wiring should comply with national and local electrical codes.
All operating switches should be “off” before power is connected.
Please Note: Do not wire motors in parallel.
Operation
When screen is first operated, be cautious! Cycle unit down and up several times
to confirm satisfactory operation.
220V AC Single Station Control—
3-position up-off-down switch permits operation to be stopped at any point. Factory
adjusted limit switches automatically stop screen when fully down or fully up.
220V AC Multiple Station Control (Not CE approved)—
Switches are similar in appearance to 220 V AC Single Station Control. Screen
stops when switch is released and may be restarted in either direction. Factory
adjusted limit switches stop screen automatically when fully down or fully up.
24V Control—
Three-button up-stop-down switch(es) stop at any point desired, operate in any
sequence. Factory adjusted limit switches automatically stop screen when fully
down or fully up. Installer should incorporate an all-pole disconnect in the fixed
wiring.
Key Operated Switching (Not CE approved)—
Two kinds of key-operated switches are optionally available with this unit.
1 The key-operated power supply switch controls power to the screen and
switches. When it is “off”, the switches will not operate screen. Key may be
removed from the switch in either “on” or “off” position.
2 A three-position key switch permits the screen to be operated directly by key. In
this case, the screen’s operator must always have a key.
RS232/Ethernet—
Serial communication and network communication optionally available with wall
switches, RF or IR remote.
Suitable for use in
environmental air space
in accordance with
Section 300-22(c) of
the National Electrical
Code, and Sections
2-128, 12-010(3) and
12-100 of the Canadian
Electrical Code, Part 1,
CSA C22.1.
Caution: Do not remove the roller assembly from the case unless necessary for repairs. If the roller assembly is removed, be sure motor is fully
re-seated in the bracket, and re-secure it carefully with the motor retaining
spring and screw (see diagram below).
Please note: Maximum torque for
tightening screw is 5 lb-inches.
