HOUSING INSTALLATION
Vision XTC2 is designed for flush ceiling mount. As shown in Figure 2a, Option 1 is the preferred mounting
method which requires access space above the ceiling. The mounting brackets may be placed anywhere along
the housing length as desired. However, it is best to evenly space them for uniform weight distribution. It is
recommended the end mounting brackets should not be more than 4 inches from each end of housing.
The housing has a built-in trim flange around the bottom. Ceiling tiles or drywall may be placed on top of this
flange to provide a finished appearance.
WARNING: SUPPORTING STRUCTURE MUST BE CAPABLE OF CARRYING 4 TIMES THE UNIT WEIGHT. CHECK WEIGHT
Threaded rods of 3/8 (10mm) diameter, hex nuts and helical lock washers are to be provided by installers.
After securing the housing in the ceiling check that the housing is level and plumb. Make adjustments as
necessary then tighten the hex nuts.
It is recommended that safety cables be added to the housing for additional safety concern. The cables may be
looped and tied to end mounting brackets between the housing and bracket (Figure 2c).

Option 1 - Suspended Mounting
An alternate mounting method is available as shown in Figure 3. This mounting option must be requested in
advance at the time of order placement for the mounting holes to be drilled.
It is the installer responsibility to supply proper mounting hardware for option 2 mounting.
Option 2 mounting requires the screen roller assembly to be removed to gain access for the mounting screws
along the middle section of the housing.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
If the unit was shipped complete with the motor and roller assembly inside; then there is a 4-wire pigtail
provided for a quick hook-up to operate the screen. Refer to Figure 4a or Figure 4b, make the required
connections to the switch for operations.
WARNING: THE INITIAL HOOK-UP AND CALIBRATION PROCEDURES ARE INTENDED TO BE PERFORMED BY A
Press the down direction on the switch to open the motorized door. Stop when the screen begins to descend.
On each end of the service door; slide the latch pin (Figure 2b) toward the center to open the door.
Turn off power and disconnect the switch from the pigtail.
QUALIFIED SERVICE MAN.
Figure 4a
Electrical Connections 120 VAC
Remove the electrical cover to gain access to the electrical compartment. Simply push up or using a screwdriver
and make a light hit upward on the cover to open (Figure 5a).
Pull down the Eurostrip to replace the pigtail with 4-conductor cable. The cable should go to location where the
wall switch is to be located.
Make connections to the switch as shown in Figure 4. Perform quick test by sending the screen down half way
and stop. Send the screen back up without closing the trap door then stop.
Push the Eurostrip back up in the electrical compartment and reinstall the electrical cover. Refer to Figures 5a
and 5b, maintain clearance for the DOL switch while pulling down on the cover. Note the cover is lightly force
fit inside the housing.
Close the service door and reinstall the latch pin on each end.
NOTE: FOR 230VAC INSTALLATION, REFER TO FIGURE 4b.

The screen may also be operated by optional IR/RF remote control, optional 12VDC trigger relay, optional Low
Voltage control or optional Home Automation control by AMX, Crestron, etc. Consult Vutec for further details.
FIRST OPERATION
CAUTION: THE FIRST CYCLE DOWN AND UP OF THE SCREEN MUST BE PERFORMED UNDER CONTROL OF AN
ATTENDANT. THE MOTOR LIMIT SWITCHES MIGHT BE DISENGAGED DURING SHIPPING WHICH WILL NOT
STOP THE SCREEN AUTOMATICALLY AND MAY CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE SCREEN IF IT IS ALLOWED TO
COME DOWN BELOW LEADER REQUIREMENT.
Verify the leader requirement for the installation. Send the screen down and expect it to stop at the leader
requirement. Stop if the screen appears to go up on the front side of the roller.
If the screen stopped at the leader requirement; send it back up to close the motorized door which in turn trips
the DCL switch to stop the door motor.
If the screen went below the leader requirement; stop! Send it back up half way, stop! Proceed to LOWER
LIMIT ADJUSTMENT Section for instructions.
CAUTION: THE MOTOR IS EQUIPPED WITH THERMAL OVERLOAD PROTECTION DEVICE. OPERATING THE SCREEN
WITHOUT ALLOWING SUFFICIENT OFF TIME COULD RESULT IN THERMAL OVERLOAD SHUT DOWN. IF
THIS OCCURS, SIMPLY ALLOW THE MOTOR TO COOL DOWN (APPROXIMATELY 15 MINUTES) BEFORE
RESUMING NORMAL OPERATION.

UPPER LIMIT ADJUSTMENT
The upper limit for the screen is approximately 2 inches inside the housing. Do not change the screen upper
limit unless absolutely necessary.
CAUTION: BE SURE THE MOTOR IS SHUT OFF WHEN THE MOTORIZED DOOR IS CLOSED. IF THE MOTOR STILL
RUNNING (HUMMING) THEN THE DCL SWITCH MUST BE ADJUSTED TO SHUT OFF THE MOTOR.
WARNING: FAILURE TO CHECK AND CORRECT THE MOTOR SHUT OFF CONDITION AFTER THE MOTORIZED DOOR IS
CLOSED MAY CAUSE SEVERE DAMAGE TO THE MOTOR AND VOID THE WARRANTY.
LOWER LIMIT ADJUSTMENT
WARNING: UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED AND ORDERED, STANDARD LEADER DROP IS 12 INCHES MAXIMUM.
EXCEEDING THE MAXIMUM MAY CAUSE THE SCREEN TO FALL OFF THE ROLLER AND VOID THE
WARRANTY.
HEX SOCKET LIMIT SWITCH
Key features of the hex socket (Figures 2a and 6) limit switch:
⇒ Each full turn (360 degrees) of the hex socket cause the screen to travel approximately 3/4 inch.
⇒ Follow the label affixed to the electrical cover plate for turning of the hex sockets.
⇒ As the hex socket is turning, the screen will move only in the direction of increasing travel.
Hint: Going down direction (lower limit) will see the screen move as more down being adjusted but not
the opposite.

Page 9
MORE SCREEN DROP
Send the screen down to the lower limit and it should stop automatically. Leave the control switch on.
Turn the White hex socket in the + direction (see label on electrical cover plate) to make the screen come down
more. Stop turning when the screen reaches the desired lower limit.
LESS SCREEN DROP
Send the screen down to the lower limit and it should stop automatically. Leave the control switch on.
Determine the number of turns required to stop the screen above the desired lower limit.
Turn the White hex socket in the - direction the number of turns that has been determined to make it stop above
the desired lower limit.
Send the screen up half way and stop. Send it down and expect it to stop above the desired lower limit.
Repeat the steps above until the screen has stopped above the desired lower limit.
When the screen stops above the desired lower limit; proceed to
to the desired lower limit.

DOOR MOTOR OPERATIONS
The lower limit of the door motor is
set and coupled to the door at its
maximum open angle of 85 degrees.
The door may be set to stop between
70 to 85 degrees by lightly bends the
DOL switch lever more or less. The
DOL trip lever contacts the switch
lever in the open and stops the door
accordingly.
Do not adjust the door motor limit
switches.
