how to install Da-Lite Model C Projection Screen with CSR

• Prepare the installation area by locating solid structural members in the ceiling or wall where brackets can be securely anchored. Verify that the mounting surface can support the screen’s weight and the anticipated usage in a busy environment.
• Unpack the screen and inspect all components for damage or missing hardware. Gather necessary tools, such as a drill, stud finder, level, and the mounting brackets provided with the kit.
• Attach the mounting brackets to the chosen surface, ensuring proper alignment so the screen will hang plumb and roll evenly. Use a level to confirm both the horizontal and vertical alignment before tightening all fasteners.
• Secure the screen housing to the mounting brackets and verify that the assembly seats firmly. Make any required adjustments to ensure there is adequate clearance for full extension and smooth operation of the CSR mechanism.
• Unroll the screen fully to engage the CSR system. Confirm that the screen extends cleanly to its full 150-inch diagonal and that the return action is quiet and controlled as the screen retracts into the case. If necessary, fine-tune alignment to achieve perfect flatness and unobstructed projection.
• Install and route the pull cord in a convenient location for technicians or presenters. Test several extension and retraction cycles to ensure consistent performance and to validate that the CSR feature operates reliably in daily use.
• Perform a final screening test with your projector to verify image alignment, focus, and throw distance. Adjust projector placement or screen position as required to optimize viewing for the room’s seating arrangement and lighting conditions.
• Provide end users with basic operating instructions: how to extend the screen to full size and how to retract it using the pull cord. Consider labeling the cord path to prevent accidental tangling or obstruction in high-traffic rooms.
• Establish a routine maintenance plan that includes periodic inspection of brackets, fasteners, and the screen surface. Clean the screen surface according to Da-Lite’s care guidelines to preserve image quality and prolong the life of the screen material.
