How to install Da-Lite Cosmopolitan 137" Electric Projection Screen

• Plan the installation location by measuring ceiling or wall clearance, ensuring there is adequate space for extension and ventilation around the motor housing.
• Verify the mounting surface supports the screen weight and use appropriate anchors or studs. Prepare the wall or ceiling with the included mounting brackets, confirming level alignment for an even screen drop.
• Unpack the screen and components, then attach the brackets to the chosen surface. Use a level to ensure precise alignment before securing all fasteners.
• Mount the two-piece aluminum case onto the brackets, secure, and then route any required control wiring. If using low-voltage control or the screen trigger interface, connect the wiring per the included installation guide or the projector manufacturer’s recommendations.
• Connect the power supply and test operation. If a projector trigger is utilized, power on the projector first and verify that the screen rises in conjunction with the projector’s signal. Calibrate the viewing height, lateral alignment, and projector throw to optimize image quality and comfort for the audience.
