How to install Draper Acumen E screen

Installing the Draper Acumen E is a straightforward process designed to minimize ceiling work while maximizing alignment precision and aesthetic appeal. Begin by identifying a suitable mounting location that can safely support the weight of the screen in its closed position. Use the floating mounting brackets to determine the ideal distance from the wall and ceiling line, ensuring there is enough clearance for the screen housing and for the screen to retract fully without interference. If you are replacing an older projector screen, remove the existing fascia and brackets, then mount the Acumen E’s pre-aligned bracket points to the ceiling or wall as per your room’s geometry. Connect the 110V power supply to the screen’s motorized drive, following local electrical codes and ensuring the supply is switched off during wiring. Once powered, slowly lower and raise the screen to verify smooth, quiet operation and correct alignment. Adjust the fascia and the side brackets to achieve a flush, seamless finish against the ceiling edge. Finally, test the image with your projector, calibrate for brightness and color, and program any remote or wall switch controls to your preferred input. With the fascia removed during setup, routine cleaning and fabric inspection are simple, helping to preserve the screen’s pristine appearance over time. The Acumen E’s design prioritizes both form and function, enabling a professional installation that looks as good as it performs.
