ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

The unit requires standard AC input (unless an alternate voltage has been specified) 

i

i

 CAUTION

Professional techniques need to used when making any electrical connection  A qualified electrician 
should perform these procedures 

Be sure to follow all standard safety procedures for installing electrical devices 

Do not disassemble or alter the configuration of the motor or the unit’s electrical connections  This 
may cause injury to you or damage to the product  The electrical connection should be made only 
to the type of power source indicated on the marking label  

Stewart Filmscreen supplies a short electrical connection wire that is fitted with a Molex motor connector  
Connect the harness (pigtail) to the incoming AC Romex or service cord by wire nuts 

1   Feed the incoming AC Romex or service cord through the Romex connector on the housing 

2   Connect the pigtail with wire nuts on the inside of the housing  The AC connection to this pigtail 

should never be made on the outside of the enclosure as this would violate NEC electrical code 
and UL standards 

WARNING!

Make sure the motor leads do not get pinched between the end plate and housing once the screen 
/ bezel has been installed  Should this occur the motor will short causing failure 

CONNECTING THE CONTROL SYSTEM

IMC supports:

 

`

Screen Trigger Interface

 

`

Dry contact closures for use with a low-voltage wall switch or home automation controller

 

`

Stewart 3-button wall pad with infrared sensor and handheld IR transmitter RS-232 via IBT100 Serial
