How to Install Da-Lite Tensioned Advantage Deluxe Electrol 189" Electric Projection Screen
- Plan the installation location carefully, ensuring the ceiling structure can support the screen housing and that there is ample space for the 189" diagonal drop and any required ventilation or projector placement considerations.
- Install the ceiling brackets by locating joists and using appropriate fasteners supplied with the kit. Use a level to ensure the brackets are perfectly aligned for a clean, even drop path.
- Hang the screen housing onto the brackets and secure it firmly, verifying that the enclosure sits flush against the ceiling with no gaps. Confirm that the integrated ceiling trim sits correctly to conceal the rough opening.
- Route the power cable according to local electrical codes, connect the motor to a power source, and mount the wall switch or ensure the remote is functioning. If a projector is being used, align the projector with the screen surface for optimal keystone-free image quality.
- Test the system: extend and retract the screen to confirm smooth motion, verify the bottom stop, and check for any interference with furniture or equipment. Make minor height or alignment adjustments as needed to ensure a perfectly flat, square image.
- Finish the setup by calibrating room lighting, seating positions, and projector throw to maximize image brightness and contrast. Store the remote in an accessible location and educate users on proper operation to extend the life of the motor and screen surface.
