IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

When using your video equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:

1. Read and understand all instructions before using.

2. Position the cord so that it will not be tripped over, pulled, or contact hot surfaces.

4. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble this appliance. Contact an authorized service dealer when repair work is required. Incorrect reassembly can cause electric shock when the appliance is used subsequently.

3. If an extension cord is necessary, a cord with a current rating at least equal to that of the appliance should be used. Cords rated for less amperage than the appliance may overheat.

5. The use of an accessory attachment not recommended by the manufacturer may cause a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.

TOOLS REqUIREd FOR INSTALLATION

1/8” Hex Key

(included)

#2 Phillips Screwdriver

PRE-INSTALLATION

1. Carefully unpack screen and remove outer wrapping from case.

2. Set aside the Installation Kit. Items inside will be used during installation.

INSTALLATION

NoTe: Carefully unpack screen. Use supplied 1/8" hex key to remove silver shipping brackets attached to slat and screen case.

There are three ways to install the Tensioned Contour electrol —

Wall Mount, Ceiling Mount, or Ceiling Hook. Procedures for each method are as follows:

Wall Mount

1. Using a #2 Phillips screwdriver, loosen the two stop screws and remove the wall mount bracket from the back side of the case (Figure 1).

NoTe: The ceiling flush mount and ceiling hook mount brackets are attached to the top side of the case. These brackets are not necessary for wall mounting and can be removed at this time.

2. Secure the wall mount bracket to the wall at the desired height.

The wall mount bracket should be fastened to the wall studs or some reinforcement within the wall. Concrete or brick walls require special fasteners and anchors. Allow at least 2-3/8” above the wall mount bracket to be able to position the case on the bracket (Figure 2).

3. Make sure the bracket is level.

4. Hang the screen case on the wall mount bracket as shown in Figure 2. Be sure the case is fully seated on the bracket.

5. Tighten the two stop screws against the wall mount bracket using a #2 Phillips screwdriver (Figure 1).

Ceiling Flush Mount

1. The ceiling hook brackets are attached to the top side of the housing. They must be removed prior to ceiling flush mount.

NoTe: Do not remove the wall mount bracket, even if you are not using it for mounting. This provides structural stability to the case.

2. Using a #2 Phillips screwdriver, loosen the four 1/4”x 5/8” screws holding the ceiling flush mount brackets (Figure 3).

3. Slide the ceiling flush mount brackets so that the mounting holes extend beyond the ends of the case. All four 1/4”x

5/8” screws must remain within the channels.

4. Tighten the four 1/4”x 5/8” screws holding the ceiling flush mount brackets (Figure 3).

5. Before mounting your Tensioned Contour electrol, be sure the ceiling has adequate reinforcement.

6. Hold the screen case up to the ceiling and mark the hole locations. The brackets have a set of front holes and a set of rear holes. Attach the Tensioned Contour electrol using the appropriate hardware for your ceiling type. It is best to use at least one hole in each set.

Ceiling hook Mount

1. The ceiling hook mount brackets are tied together and attached to the ceiling flush mount bracket at one end of the case. Remove the ceiling hook mount brackets.

2. Remove the ceiling flush mount brackets using a #2 Phillips screwdriver. See Figure 3. Retain four 1/4”x 5/8” screws.

Note: Do not remove the wall mount bracket, even if you are not using it for mounting. This provides structural stability to the case.

3. The top of the screen case has two channels with threaded nuts that slide the length of the case. Attach the two ceiling hook mount brackets using the 1/4”x 5/8” screws and threaded nuts, two per bracket. The brackets can be attached anywhere within 12" of the ends of the case (Figure 4).

4. Before hanging your Tensioned Contour electrol, be sure the ceiling has adequate reinforcement.

5. Using the holes in the ceiling hook brackets, hang the

Tensioned Contour electrol using the appropriate hardware and fasteners for your ceiling type.

ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION

1. open the junction box on the left end of the case using a

#2 Phillips screwdriver. Install electrical connections that apply to your unit. Make sure to review the wiring diagram for proper hook up. Replace the junction box cover.

NoTe: Must be installed in accordance with the requirements of the Local Building Codes, the Canadian electrical Code (CeC), CAN/CSA C22.1 and the National electric Code (NeC), NFPA 70.

2. Test installation by running screen up and down a few times.

Be prepared to stop screen should any objects obstruct the movement of the screen. To prevent damage to the motor, the standard duty cycle is 1 minute on and 3 minutes off.
