SVS 7HSE Lift Installation Instructions Page 4 of 16

IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ THROUGH ALL INSTRUCTIONS

BEFORE BEGINNING YOUR INSTALLATION.

This Lift is designed to be used with a Wall Plate Controller, either automatically or manually controlled
and will function without any special training in the “Show” mode. The Wall Plate Controller features a
key switch which can be placed in the “Show” or “Auto” positions for normal operation. The “Off”
position disables the Lift. The “Service” position must be used only by trained technical personnel when
the Lift is lowered to floor level for service/access.

Note: The “Auto” position on the Wall Plate Controller is for Accessory #4 Power Sensor, Accessory #5
Power Sensor with Screen Control, and Accessory #15 12-Volt Trigger only

WARNING

To prevent personal injury and property damage when servicing any part of the Lift drive system
(electric motor/brake, drive chain/sprockets, steel lift cables, and/or drum lock assembly) the projector
must be removed and the Lift's lower frame supported by straps, chain, or cable to prevent it from
lowering unexpectedly while the drive system is being serviced.

IMPORTANT
Please read all Accessory Installation Instructions before beginning your installation. If an Accessory #2
Plenum Shroud or Accessory #12 Decorative Cover are to be installed with the Lift. Please read the
Accessory Installation Instructions before beginning your installation. The Lift support structure will
need to allow enough space to install the mounting hardware for the Plenum Shroud and/or Decorative
Cover.

TO AVOID CABLE SPILLS

• Do not push the lift bottom frame upwards once the Lift has been installed.

• Make sure that there are no obstructions in the Lift's path. If the bottom frame is lowered onto an

obstruction the cable will slack and spill over the cable drum.

4. PRELIMINARY INSTALLATION CHECKS

• SVS recommends that the Lift support structure holds at least four (4) times the weight of the Lift and

projector combined. Always follow your local building codes.

• Required space for the Lift, Projector, and accessories should be considered prior to installation. Check

for obstructions that may prevent the Lift or accessories from being installed or operated.

• Plan for necessary Lift low voltage control cabling, projector audio/video/control cabling, and power

connections.

• Do not install the projector on the Lift until the Lift, hardware, and any accessories have been properly

installed and are operational.

• This Lift has been adjusted with cables tightly packed on the cable drum and leveled for precise tracking

prior to being shipped from the factory. Do not remove the lift's shipping blocks until instructed to
do so in Section 7. SVS scissor lifts are shipped in a slightly open position to eliminate stress on the
limit switches and to maintain a tight cable pack on the cable drum. If physical height measurements are
taken before the blocks are removed from the Lift, they may not accurately reflect the height of the
closed Lift.

• All weight attached to the Lift must be centered between the lift's cables. The balance point of the

projector should be placed in line with the Lift cables (+/- 1-inch). If this is not possible you may need to
counter weight the Lift to keep the Lift level.

SVS 7HSE Lift Installation Instructions Page 5 of 16

• As a reminder, clear all persons and obstructions from the Lift's path during its operation. Keep fingers

and other objects away from the scissors and other moving parts. Technical personnel should always be
present whenever the Lift is in the Service mode.

5. CONSIDERATION FOR LIFT PLACEMENT

• Before beginning the installation, check the

dimensions of the lift against the available space
above the ceiling. Be sure to include the projector
lens and any accessories which may add to the
overall dimensions

• Preliminary measurements should also be made to

layout the orientation of the projector and lift to
the screen. Consider if the lens is offset from the
center of the projector and thus the center of the
Lift.

Note: SVS 7HSE Lift Dimensions may vary with
projectors. Please verify the Lift dimension on the Lift
Dimension drawing included in the Lift Installation
package.

6. LIFT SUPPORTING STRUCTURE

The SVS 7HSE Lift should be mounted from six 1/2” rods. The mounting hole locations are marked with a
<M> in Figure 4. The thread rods must be supported by a rigid structure. If the threaded rods exceed more than
2-feet (0.6 M) from the support structure to the lift's top mounting holes cross bracing should be installed
between the support rods. Figure 5 shows the cross bracing and the correct height for mounting the lift above
the false ceiling.

Figure 4 Top View

Figure 5 Cross Bracing & Correct Height

SVS 7HSE Lift Installation Instructions Page 7 of 16

If the ceiling clearance allows, an “X-Y” or a cross-supporting structure is strongly suggested as shown in
Figure 6 Recommended Lift Support Structure for Flat Ceilings. This allows for front-to-back and side-to-side
adjustments of the Lift for alignment to the screen.

Figure 6 Recommended Lift Support Structure for Flat Ceilings

Important

When attaching the Lift to a flat concrete ceiling, SVS suggest two (2) pieces of P1000T Unistrut (or
equivalent) approx. 10-feet (3.04 m) long, to be installed on the ceiling first. Proper spacing between the two
pieces will be based on the distance between the four (4) mounting holes of the Lift as shown in Figure 4.

You should use at least four (4) 1/2” bolts and anchors evenly spaced on each piece of Unistrut to distribute the
weight of the supporting structure. Attach the two lower pieces of Unistrut to the upper two pieces of Unistrut
using 1/2” threaded rods to the Unistrut, using Unistrut P3010 1/2” channel nuts in the channel, along with a
locking washer and nut below the channel to lock into place.

IMPORTANT
If you are installing an Accessory #2 Plenum Shroud or Accessory #12 Decorative with the Lift, please
read the Accessory Installation Instructions before beginning your installation. The Lift support structure
will need to allow enough space for the Plenum Shroud and/or Decorative Cover mounting hardware

7. LIFT INSTALLATION

a. Preparation:

1. The Lift is shipped in a wooden crate.

2. Do not remove the Lift from the crate until you are ready to install the Lift..

3. The Installation Instructions, Wall Plate Controller with control cable, and projector mounting hardware
are located in a cardboard box inside the crate.

4. Unbolt the Lift from the bottom of the crate to remove the lift from the crate.

SVS 7HSE Lift Installation Instructions Page 8 of 16

b. Installing the Lift in the Ceiling

1. Raise the Lift into the ceiling and line up the six (6)
mounting holes in the Lift's top frame with the 1/2”
threaded rods of the supporting structure. Make sure
that there is a top nut and a flat washer on each threaded
rod before the Lift is mounted. See Figure 7. (Plenum
Shrouds & Decorative Cover require additional
hardware installed on the threaded rods before the Lift.)

2. Once the Lift's top frame has been inserted, add a
hexnut to each threaded rod below the Lift frame.
Always leave the top nut loose to allow adjustments
until the Lift is leveled.

3. Level the Lift's top frame side-to-side and front-to-back

Figure 7 Lift Mounting Hardware

using the lower hexnuts on the threaded rods.

4. Once the Lift is leveled, secure the Lift to the threaded rods by tightening the upper hexnuts. Do not
over tighten the fasteners as it could distort the Lifts top frame.

5. If the Power Sensor is used, please refer to the Power Sensor Instructions, otherwise, plug the 12-pin
connector of the Wall Plate Controller into the 12-pin socket on the Lift's gray electrical box mounted on
the Lifts top frame. The Wall Plate Controller includes 75-feet of cable and is shipped with the Lift. It is
located in the cardboard box attached to the lid of the Lift's shipping crate.

6. Once the Lift is properly installed in the ceiling and leveled, you can remove the shipping blocks.
Remove the blocks by removing the screws and tie-raps holding them in place.

TO AVOID CABLE SPILLS

• Do not push the lift bottom frame upwards once the Lift has been installed.

• Make sure that there are no obstructions in the Lifts path. If the bottom frame is lowered onto an

obstruction the cable will slack and spill over the cable drum. If the cable spills over the cable
drum and the Lift is not stopped the cable will back-wind onto the cable drum causing severe
damage to the Lift and accessories.

8. ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

Electrical connections should be made at this time. The SVS 7HSE Lift requires 110V/60Hz at 2.3 Amps and is
supplied with a six foot power cord. The SVS 7HSE Lift is controlled with a 24VAC Low Voltage Controller
called the Wall Plate Controller. This controller can easily be connected to external controllers like Crestron,
AMX, Extron, etc. The Wall Plate Controller is supplied with 75-feet of cable (22 AWG, 9 conductor).

WALL PLATE CONTROLLER

2. Apply power to the Lift by plugging it into an AC Outlet.

a. How to use the Wall Plate Controller

1. To lower the Lift to the Show position, turn the key switch to the Show position and press the toggle
switch down. The lift will lower as long as you hold the toggle switch down, the lift will stop when the
rear scissor roller compresses the Show Position microswitch.

2. To lower the Lift to the Service position, turn the key switch to the Service position and press the toggle
switch down. The Lift will lower as long as you hold the toggle switch down, the Lift will stop when the
rear scissor roller compresses the Down Limit microswitch. The Service position bypasses the Show
Position microswitch.

3. To raise the lift press the toggle switch up. The Lift will rise until the Up Limit microswitches are
compressed. The Lift will rise as long as you hold the toggle switch up. The Lift can be raised with the
key switch in either the Show or Service positions.

4. The Off position on the key switch disables the Lift.

5. The Power light on the Wall Plate Controller only comes on when the Lift is raising or lowering (Lift
motor turning), not when power is applied to the Lift.

Figure 9 Wall Plate

Figure 8 Wall Plate Controller Wiring Diagram

Controller

Important: The toggles switch on the Wall Plate Controller must be pressed to raise or lower the Lift, releasing
the toggle switch stops the Lift. This is designed as a safety feature. The key switch is an extra precaution, when
the key is removed, the Lift is secure.

b. Connecting a Touch Screen Controller (External Controller)

The simplest external controller connections are to use the White wire (pin 1) as the common and the Brown
wire (pin 3) for down to Show position and the Red wire (pin 2) for up. For this and other wiring options please
refer to the external controller wiring diagrams in the Appendix. Also:

1. Program a release of relays to stop the Lift on up and down positions

2. Program a time out after the normal runtime, 2 seconds max. (SVS Lifts raise/lower at 1-inch/second.)

3. Program an exclusive lockout on up and down so that both cannot be activated at the same time. ( Note:
SVS Lifts have a lockout function that disables the Lift when it receives a up and down command at the
same time. Removing one of the two commands releases the lockout condition.)

SVS 7HSE Lift Installation Instructions Page 10 of 16

4. Hold relays on to raise/lower the Lift.

5. Never leave voltage on the up and down. Always program a release after the travel time has been
achieved.

If you have any questions please contact SVS for proper wiring.

9. ACCESSORY INSTALLATION

Please refer to the accessory installation instructions located in the accessory shipping crates for specific
instructions for each accessory. The Accessory #2 Plenum Shroud and Accessory #12 Decorative Cover require
that hardware be added to the threaded rods supporting the Lift before the Lift is installed. The Accessory #1
Ceiling Closure and FP1 Closure Panel attach the ceiling closure support brackets on the platform of the Lift
using supplied threaded rods.

10. MOUNTING THE PROJECTOR

After checking the Lift operation and all clearances you can install the projector on the Lift. The projector is
placed on the Accessory #13 Metal Platform (non-inverted). For custom mounting option please contact SVS.
All weight placed on the Lift must be centered between the lift's cables. The balance point of the projector
should be placed in line with the lift cables (+/- 1-inch). If this is not possible you may need to counter weight
the lift.

Leveling the Projector

• If you can not level the projector using the projector's leveling adjustments, you can adjust the level of
the lift.

• Level corrections are made with the projector mounted after confirming that the cable is packed tightly
and is straight on the Cable Drum.

• It is best to lower the lift to the Service position and then completely up before leveling the projector.

• Level adjustments should be made with the projector in the Show position.

• Position a level across the front of the projector. Fine adjustments are done by adjusting the nuts on the

bottom of the cable eye bolts. Raise and lower the Lift until satisfactory level is achieved.

• After adjustments are made tighten the eye bolt nuts.

11. CABLE MANAGEMENT

The SVS 7HSE Cable Retractor is a spring-loaded reel on the rear of the Lift. The Cable Retractor is used to
keep the projector cables away from the scissors during Lift operation. The retractor automatically retracts your
cable as the Lift ascends and releases your cable as the Lift descends.

Instructions:

1. Please read all instructions before installing your cable on the Cable Retractor.

2. Lower the Lift to its maximum down position (Service position).

3. Clamp your cable securely to the outrigger on the top frame of the Lift.

4. Wind the cable reel clockwise:

 2 ¾ complete turns for the SVS 7HSE-9
 3 ¼ complete turns for the SVS 7HSE-11
 4 complete turns for the SVS 7HSE-13
 4 ½ complete turns for the SVS 7HSE-15

SVS 7HSE Lift Installation Instructions Page 11 of 16

 5 ¼ complete turns for the SVS 7HSE-18
 6 complete turns for the SVS 7HSE-20
 6 ½ complete turns for the SVS 7HSE-22

Warning: Over-winding the reel or winding the reel counter-clockwise will damage the

cable reel springs. Broken cable reel springs are not be cover by the Lifts warranty.

5. Hold the cable reel in this position to stop the reel from unwinding.

6. Attach upper half of your cable to the cable reel between two of the four (4) holes with 3/16” tie-wraps.
Leave the tie-wraps semi-loose in case adjustment is needed.

7. Make one and a half turns around the cable reel counter clockwise with your cable. Lock your cable in

the same way as the previous step, to the two remaining holes (180° from the first two holes used.)

8. Clamp your cable securely to the outrigger on the bottom frame of the Lift.

9. Run the Lift up and down to check the slack in your cable. Your cable will be slacked at the top of the
Lift when the Lift is in a full up position, and equally slacked at the bottom in a full down position.

Note: The Cable Retractor is located near the center of the scissors, but due to different number of scissors and
the opening time of the scissors, there can be slack in your cable above or below the cable reel as the Lift
lowers. Excess slack can be removed by adjusting the cable clamping on the cable reel after tracking the Lift up
& down. If the slack is adjusted correctly, the cable will be more even when in the up and down positions, with
slack occurring only in the middle position.

10. When proper cable tension is achieved, you can securely tighten the tie-wraps.

Figure 10

12. SETTING THE SHOW POSITION

The Show position is adjusted by positioning the Show position microswitch located on the rear right of the
Lift's top frame so that the large roller washer compresses the Show position switch when the Lift reaches the
Show position.

1. Place the key switch in the Service position and lower the Lift to the desired Show Position.

SVS 7HSE Lift Installation Instructions Page 12 of 16

2. Loosen the thumb screw holding the Show
microswitch (bracket) in place and slide the Show
microswitch (bracket) along the Lift frame until the
large roller washer compresses the microswitch. You
should hear a slight click as you position the
microswitch over the washer and the microswitch is
compressed.

3. Moving the Show microswitch toward the rear of the
Lift raises the Show position and moving the Show
microswitch toward the front of the Lift lowers the
Show position.

4. Tighten the thumb screw. Make sure that the
microswitch is not positioned too close to the washer
because the washer must be able to pass under the

Figure 11

microswitch to reach the Service position.

5. The Show position is now set. Raise the Lift to a closed position and place the key switch in the Show
position and press the toggle switch down. The Lift will lower and stop at the Show position you set. It
maybe necessary to repeat steps 1 through 3 to get the Show position set where you want it.

6. The Lift will only stop at the Show position when lowering from above the Show position and not when
rising from below the Show position.

7. The Show position is adjustable with an accuracy of +/- 1/8-inch (0.32 cm).

13. MAINTENANCE AND ADJUSTMENTS

a. Maintenance

• Inspect the Lift occasionally for any loose bolts or cable clamps. The scissor bolts are adjusted for no
slack, but must not be too tight. If scissor bolts are found loose, tighten to approximately 151 lbs torque,
the back off 1/8-inch. These bolts have nylon locking nuts and should stay at this position.

• Check Lift and projector cables for damage or wear.

• Check the Drum Lock Assembly to see if the Drum Lock solenoid energizes and raises the Drum Lock

arm when you press the Down toggle switch to lower the Lift. At all other times the Drum Lock
solenoid is de-energized and the Drum Lock arm stays in its down position. If the solenoid does not pull
up, the microswitch will not allow the motor to turn when to lowering the Lift.

• Check the Drum Lock pawl (white nylon piece) located on the Cable Drum. The pawl should move
freely and drop when when it reaches the top of the Cable Drum's rotation, avoiding contact with the
Drum Lock arm. If the drum rotates too fast, the pawl will swing out and catch the arm, locking the
drum after the first rotation.

• The Cable Drum Bearings (pillow block bearings) are pre-lubricated and do not require attention.

• The Lift motor does not require attention. If the magnetic brake (part of the Lift motor) does not hold

properly, it should be replaced immediately.

SVS 7HSE Lift Installation Instructions Page 13 of 16

WARNING

To prevent personal injury and property damage when servicing any part of the lift drive system (electric
motor/brake, drive chain/sprockets, steel lift cables, and/or drum lock assembly) the projector must be
removed and the lift's lower frame supported by straps, chain, or cable to prevent it from lowering
unexpectedly while the drive system is being serviced.
