How to install Da-Lite Advantage 133" Electric Projection Screen

• Plan your rough-in layout by identifying the ceiling height, viewing distance, and cable routes. Ensure the ceiling recess is sized to accommodate the screen case with allowance for the trim and motor housing.
• During rough-in, mount the screen case in the chosen ceiling cavity using manufacturer-recommended fasteners and hardware. Confirm alignment and clearance to avoid contact with any structural elements or HVAC components.
• Install the ceiling trim in place to ensure the final appearance is seamless and to conceal the rough opening. This step is critical for achieving the clean, professional look expected from the Advantage series.
• Route power and control wiring to the projector and screen system, following local electrical codes. Use a dedicated circuit if possible to improve performance and reduce electrical noise.
• Finish the installation by mounting the screen mechanism (if not pre-attached) and performing a full range test: lower and raise the screen, verify alignment, and confirm that the projection surface remains flat with uniform tension.
• Calibrate the projector and adjust any keystone or focus to ensure the 133" 16:9 image fills the screen precisely. Program the remote or control panel for easy operation from the seating area.
