5. 5-12 volt trigger (Item D, Fig 4):
The built-in 5-
12V trigger input allows your screen to synchronize
its drop & rise with the projector’s power cycle. The
screen deploys when the projector powers up and will
retract when the projector powers down. The 5-12 volt
RJ45 cable connects to your projector’s trigger output
via a separate cable that may or may not be provided
by the manufacturer of the projector. The trigger
feature will not work without an output cable from the
projector, but it can be tested by connecting the Red
(+) and Green (-) cable to a 9-volt battery.
