Screen operation 

Electric Current

: The screen operates on AC110V at 60Hz/ 1.18A 

1.After ensuring the power outlet & screen are compatible (voltage), plug the power cord into the power outlet. 
2. Once the screen has power, you’ll be able to control it using any of the 6 methods described below. 
 

6 ways to control the Polar Max Aerie

 

 

 

1. 

IR remote control

 (

Item A, Fig 1

): The Infrared functions by direct line of sight 

contact with a beam range of 30 feet. Aim the IR remote at the “eye” receiver once it 
has been connected to the control box’s RJ45 port. 

2. IR “Eye” Receiver

 (

Item E, Fig 2

): The IR “Eye” Receiver plugs directly into the 

control box’s RJ45 port to present a low profile line-of-sight control option for your 
IR remote control even in a recessed ceiling installation. 

3. RF Remote Control

 (

Item B

): The radio waves eliminate the need for a direct line 

of sight with a range of 100 feet. 

4. 3-Way Wall Switch

 (

Item C, Fig 3

): The 3-way wall switch is a wall mount switch 

with an up/stop/down button and plugs directly into the control box’s RJ45 port.

 

 

 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 

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. 

 

 
 
6. Wireless 5-12 volt trigger
 (Item F, Fig 5)

:  The RF  

remote control serves as a dual purpose, independently as a 
handheld remote control, or in conjunction with the Wireless 
5-12 volt trigger cable.  The radio frequency technology can 
be programmed to send a wireless signal to synchronize its 
drop/rise with the projector’s power cycle.
