Setup
The Elite Screens Sable Frame 2 ER180WH2 is a wall-mounted fixed frame projector screen. Proper installation is crucial for optimal performance.
1. Frame Assembly
Assemble the aluminum frame according to the included instructions. The frame is wrapped in black velvet to enhance aesthetics and absorb projector overshoot, improving image contrast. Ensure all frame sections are securely connected.
2. Screen Material Attachment
Carefully attach the CineWhite UHD-B screen material to the assembled frame. The material features a black-backed surface to eliminate light penetration and boost contrast. Use the provided tension rods and springs to ensure a perfectly flat and wrinkle-free viewing surface. It is recommended to perform this step in a clean, dust-free environment.
3. Wall Mounting
Identify the desired location for your screen. Use the sliding wall brackets for easy horizontal adjustment and perfectly centered installation. Mark the drilling points, drill pilot holes, insert anchors (if necessary), and secure the wall brackets using the provided wood screws. Carefully lift the assembled screen and hang it onto the secured wall brackets. Ensure the screen is level and stable.
