Gen4 RF remote replacement
The Gen4 motors were designed with the LED
dongle to not only give you yet another light to blink
in your home theater, but to give you access to a
programming button. This button will assign a RF
remote to the motor. If you accidentally pressed this
button, just follow through the remote assignment
process.
1) Press the little red button on the screen’s
LED dongle. This will cause the LED to start
blinking; telling you the motor is looking for a
partner.
2) Press stop on the remote. This will conclude
the courtship and partnership will follow.
3) Being legal in some states, if you’re joining
another remote to the happy couple, just repeat steps 1 and 2, and you’ll have two remotes with
the power to constantly tell your screen what to do.
Troubleshooting
No one likes it, but it happens: here are some possible issues and fixes. If we didn’t cover your issue,
you may be more unique than you’ve been told, so you’ll need to contact us for assistance.
Waves
The Center Stage screen uses a woven material, which for acoustical transparency and fineness of
video resolution is an advantage. The disadvantage is that the material doesn’t naturally stretch like a
piece of plastic wrap, so balancing the tension forces across the screen is critical to not having stresses
build up and cause waves.
The new Center Stage XD
™
has features built into the weave to eliminate waves in almost every case,
so if you find yourself struggling too much, consider using our generous upgrade policy and get the XD
material.
To adjust the tension, there are two turnbuckles on each side of
the screen. The horizontal ones (hereafter called “horizontal”)
feature a standard thread on the rod joining the black plastic
piece attached to the screen. Just focus your eyes on this half
of the turnbuckle, so when we say “tighten,” you think “righty-
tighty, lefty-loosey.” The other half with the screw is reverse
thread and will mess with your mind.
The similar, vertical turnbuckle features its standard thread on
the eyelet joining the cable, with the little nut. We put a dollop of
thread adhesive on this one to keep it from drifting. If you need
to adjust this one, it’s a bit tricky and best with three hands and sets of needlenose pliers. First, pop out
the little plastic endcap on the weight bar so you can grab the in-bar eyelet. Then, grab the eyelet at
the cable loop so it doesn’t twist. Then, with your third hand and pliers, break the nut out of the way.
Finally, the turnbuckle barrel can be grabbed and adjusted as necessary.
