PREPARING THE INSTALLATION

Before proceeding with the installation of this screen, take time to thoroughly read and understand 
these installation instructions 

INSTALLATION

The Gemini projection screen is ready to install when first removed from its shipping crate  Remove 
outer paper that surrounds the housing  You will notice that there are (4) mounting holes located at the 
upper corners of the housing  You can use All Thread, lag screws, chain or other hardware fasteners as 
necessary to secure the Gemini to the sub structure  

Professional mounting techniques and appropriate rated hardware must be used to secure the Gemini 
screen to its mounting location  Stewart Filmscreen cannot be held liable for faulty or sub-standard 
installation practices 

Ensure that the housing is level and plumb once secured / mounted  The screens must be level for normal 
/ best operation   

After the Gemini is installed, make sure to remove any remaining packing materials or batten retaining 
clamps  Failure to do this will cause screen failure during first time activation 

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

The Gemini control system can be accessed by removing the hex nuts that secure it to the electrical 
internal end of the Gemini  Alternate connectivity provisions can be made or altered as needed  See 
photo on next page for controller access 

Perform all necessary switch wiring connections before power is applied to the control box  The supplied 
AC power cord can be plugged into a standard AC outlet or the cord’s plug can be removed and then the 
power cable can be hard wired directly into a J-box   

 

 

 

 

 

     

Connect the dual channel keypad to Port 0 on the screen board and trigger cable (if required) to the 
controller’s low voltage switching input  Also at this time make any other necessary connections as 
required  These could be third party or serial control connections
