How to install Elite Screens Spectrum ELECTRIC125H2 125" Electric Projection Screen
Installing the Spectrum ELECTRIC125H2 is designed to be straightforward for both DIY enthusiasts and professional installers. Begin by selecting a suitable location with ample clearance above the screen when retracted and enough depth to accommodate the housing. The screen should have a clean, unobstructed view of the projection surface from your primary seating area. If mounting to a wall, locate studs and ensure the wall is sturdy enough to support the screen’s weight. If mounting to a ceiling, verify ceiling structure and available access for wiring. Power should be connected to a switched outlet or a dedicated circuit as required by local electrical codes. Once the location is prepared, follow these steps:
- Unpack and inspect: Check the screen and all mounting components for any shipping damage. Ensure you have the mounting brackets, screws, and wall anchors appropriate for your wall type.
- Attach mounting brackets: Use a pencil to mark the bracket locations, align with studs or solid anchors, and securely fasten the brackets to the wall or ceiling. Confirm that brackets are level to ensure the screen retracts evenly.
- Mount the screen housing: With a helper, lift the housing into place and anchor it to the brackets. Double-check the alignment to ensure the screen drops straight down without tilting.
- Connect power and control: Plug the screen into a nearby power source or wall switch, and pair the remote control if included. If you’re integrating a smart hub or a local control system, follow the manufacturer’s wiring diagram and local electrical codes.
- Test operation and alignment: Power on the screen and use the up/down function to verify smooth travel. If the image needs alignment, adjust the bracket screws or reposition the housing slightly until the screen deploys evenly and the picture fills the projection area without keystone distortion.
- Set up the projection area: Calibrate your projector to the 125" diagonal and 16:9 aspect ratio. Adjust focus and keystone if needed, and test with a variety of content to ensure color balance and brightness meet your expectations.
Tip: If you’re mounting in a room with ambient light, consider wall coverings or light-control curtains to maximize contrast and brightness. For rooms with existing electrical wiring, it may be beneficial to hire a licensed electrician to ensure safe, code-compliant connections and clean cable management. The Spectrum ELECTRIC125H2 is designed to integrate discreetly into most spaces, delivering professional results with minimal setup time.
