Clever Tips That Help You Use Your XL Projector Screen the Right Way from Day One

If you’ve bought the Acumen XL V, you’ve picked a strong, high-quality projector screen that works great in large rooms. But even the best screen needs to be used properly to work well.

We’ll go through clear and simple tips so you know how to use your XL Projector Screen the right way from the very beginning. These are the kinds of things that make a big difference in day-to-day use. If you’re in the UAE or nearby, Evig, the official Draper UAE distributor, can help you with advice, support, and setup too.

Make Sure It’s Mounted Straight and Secure

This screen isn’t small. The case can hold screens up to 18 feet wide. That’s a big setup. The case itself is about 9- 1/4 inches high and 8- 1/8 inches deep, so it needs proper space. Use the floating brackets or ceiling brackets that come with it. These are made to help the screen stay steady and straight.

Tip: If the screen isn’t level when installed, the picture won’t look right, and it might roll unevenly. Always double-check before locking the brackets in place.

Don’t Pull or Push the Screen Surface

The Acumen XL V has a special flat surface that stays smooth because of its tab-tension system. It’s made to stop wrinkles, even over time. This helps the picture stay clear. But if someone pulls on the sides or presses on it while it’s moving, that can ruin the flatness.

Tip: Let the screen move up and down on its own. Keep kids and visitors from touching it while it’s moving.

Use the Wall Switch for Daily Use

The screen comes with a built-in low-voltage controller and a wall switch. This is easy to use and doesn’t get lost like remotes sometimes do. While you can still use the remote, the wall switch is more dependable in the long run.

Tip: Use the wall switch for regular control. Keep the remote as a backup just in case.

Leave Space for the Black Drop

There’s a 12-inch black drop at the top of the screen. It helps center the image better and gives you some flexibility with how high the screen sits. Don’t block this space with furniture or wall shelves.

Tip: Always check how much space you have above the screen before installation, especially in rooms with low ceilings.

Clean It Gently

Dust collects on everything. But don’t spray the screen with cleaner or use rough cloths. The surface can handle high-resolution images like 8K, so you must treat it with care.

Tip: A soft, dry microfiber cloth works best. Wipe gently. Once every few weeks is enough in most rooms.

Don’t Try to Open the Case Unless Needed

The screen’s case looks nice and clean, with a curved design. There’s a removable fascia that lets you access the roller and motor inside. But unless you know what you’re doing, don’t take it apart.

Tip: If you ever need to service the screen, ask a technician or contact Evig for help. It’s not worth damaging anything.

Choose the Right Viewing Surface

The Acumen XL V supports several surface types, including TecVision. These are designed for different lighting setups, room types, and projectors. Some are good for bright rooms, while others are suitable for home theaters. Some support 8K resolution.

Tip: If you’re not sure which surface to pick, ask Evig. They know the full range and can guide you based on your space and projector.
