Product Overview
Versatile Screen Controller for Da-Lite Motorized Projection Screens
The Da-Lite Screen Controller is a powerful accessory designed to enhance the functionality of Da-Lite motorized projection screens with either integrated or external low voltage control. This advanced interface box enables remote screen operation through multiple control methods, including TCP/IP connection, VPI (Video Projector Interface) trigger, Dry Contact, and RS232 communication. It’s the ideal solution for professional AV environments that demand flexible and reliable screen automation.
PoE+ Powered for Simplified Installation
Designed with efficiency in mind, the Screen Controller is powered via PoE+ (Power over Ethernet), requiring a connection to an Ethernet switch that supplies a minimum of 30W. This eliminates the need for separate power cables, reducing installation complexity and clutter. If PoE+ is not available, a PoE injector can be used to power the device, offering flexibility for a variety of AV system configurations.
Web-Based Interface for Easy Setup and Management
The Screen Controller features a user-friendly web interface for initial setup, administrative control, and ongoing operation. It is fully compatible with the Vaddio Deployment Tool, which scans the network for Da-Lite and Vaddio devices, identifies unconfigured units, and provides direct access to each device’s web interface. This streamlines deployment and ensures consistent configuration across multiple screens and locations.
Wireless Remote Options for Enhanced Control
For added convenience, the Screen Controller supports optional wireless remote kits, including IR (infrared) and RF (Bluetooth Low Energy) options. These remotes pair directly with the controller, allowing for flexible screen operation without the need for physical connections. Each kit is available with or without a PoE+ mid-span power injector and AC cord sets, giving users the ability to customize their control setup to match their specific needs.
Comprehensive Control for Professional AV Integration
Whether you're integrating with a projector trigger (5–12V), using dry contact interfaces, or managing screens via RS232 or IP-based control, the Da-Lite Screen Controller delivers a complete suite of control options. It’s engineered for seamless compatibility with third-party systems, making it a go-to solution for custom AV installations in boardrooms, classrooms, auditoriums, and more.
TAA Compliant and Built for Institutional Use
Fully TAA compliant, the Da-Lite Screen Controller meets federal procurement standards, making it suitable for government, military, and educational applications. With its robust feature set, PoE+ power support, and compatibility with Da-Lite motorized screens, this controller is a smart investment for organizations seeking scalable, professional-grade screen control solutions.
