Connecting the Screen Trigger Interface (STI) option

The optional low-voltage STI enables operation of the screen in conjunction with a projector, tuner, VCR, cable box, or switched AC outlet.

Once the AC power outlet is installed near the screen, an electrician is not needed to connect the screen trigger interface to the power source. Attach the 12 V trigger wire (2 conductor 20-24 gauge) to the jack in the J-box as shown in Figure 4.

OPERATING THE SCREEN

WARNING!

When operating the screen:

‹Stand clear from the screen when it is in motion.

‹Supervise children and animals when the screen is in motion.

‹Keep hands and limbs away from the door and arm assemblies when the unit is in operation.

Use the switch or remote control to activate the screen. Do not block the path of the door or screen when in motion.

When you lower or retract the screen, it will stop at its factory preset limit and the door will close.

The motor is designed to be used for short operations such as raising the screen in preparation for viewing. The motor is not designed for continuous duty. If the motor operates continually for more than a few minutes, it may automatically shut off to prevent damage from overheating. If the motor occasionally needs to be run more than normal, for example during initial setup and positioning, allow time for the motor to cool down.

In general, when a screen is not in use, you should store it in the fully retracted position.

Caution

Do not operate the motor when any of the following occurs:

‹The unit emits any smoke, heat, abnormal noise or unusual odor.

‹The unit is damaged in some way, such as damage from a water leak.

If any of these situations occur, call a qualified service person.
