The D-BOX 2250i/2400i actuators system is designed to be installed into the armrest of qualified
home theater seating.
1- D-BOX 2250i/2400i, 2 axis actuators system overview
When properly installed the system will give you a two (2) axis motion simulator designed for
home entertainment. The seat will move you front to back and side to side. Only the rear of the
seat will move since there is a pivot point in the front. In order for the seat to be able to stand the
motion and be supported by a single front pivot, it is important that the
structure be well built.
We suggest seat manufacturer to reinforce the seat by making a single piece wood panel on the
back
,
supporting the armrests or by adding a steel bar that will join the two side armrest
together.
The front reinforcement part can also be made of hard wood or steel. See pictures at the end of
this document for more details.
Each actuator has a piston that will go in and out of the cylinder to make the motion. At the end of
each piston there is a hard plastic pivot piece that will be in contact with the floor (or a floor
protector and anti-slip cup). Under each cup there is a rubber pad to protect the floor and also to
make sure that the seat will stay in place during a movie or a game.

Caution:
When removing the actuators from the packaging box, be careful not to bend the metal
plate holding the two actuator cable
connectors. Also, be careful not to pull on the two
connectors.
One connector powers the motor (3 pins white connector) while the other carries the
optical encoder signals.
