Accessories for Evanesce B Series

1. 5-12V Trigger: The built-in 5-12V trigger input
allows your screen to synchronize its drop & rise

with the projector’s power cycle. The screen

deploys when the projector powers up and will
retract when the projector powers down. The 5-

12 volt adaptor connects to your projector’s

trigger output via a separate cable that may or
may not be provided by the manufacturer of the
projector. The trigger feature will not work
without an output cable from the projector, but it
can be tested by connecting the Red (+) and
Green (-) cable to a 9-volt battery.

2. 3-Way Wall Switch: The 3-way wall
switch is a wall mount control box with
an up/stop/down button and plugs
directly into the screen’s RJ-45 input.

screen’s RJ-45 input to present a low profile
