Ceiling Ambient Light Rejecting Projection Screen
Aeon StarBright CLR® 16 Series
The EDGE FREE® Aeon StarBright CLR® 16 is a ceiling light rejecting fixed frame screen. It has a high gain front projection surface that increases projector brightness while absorbing overhead light to produce vivid, colorful, contrast-rich images in ambient light room environments.
The thin frame design maximizes the viewing area into a smaller footprint which is more appealing in appearance and in accommodating room décor. An LED light kit is included to enhance the frame appearance and room lighting.

Aeon Series FAQ’s
There is a hex screw that must first be inserted on the back channel of the bottom and top frames. Then, the center support bar attaches to the hex screw.
Most ultra-short throw projectors despite claiming they can go up to a certain size, if they have a focus adjustment should be able to adjust the picture to 103” (if a 100” UST projector) or 123” (if a 120” UST projector) and fill in the entire screen area. In some cases, certain UST projectors that have a fixed focus lens can go up to 103” and 123” with minimal impact on the picture and allowing to fill in the screen size.

General Fixed Frame Screens FAQ’s
In addition to an appealing aesthetic appearance, the advantage of having a black velvet covered frame is to help absorb projector overshoot.
Center support bar for larger size fixed frame screens goes inside the top of the groove located on the back of the frame.
Elite Screens does not recommend attempting such an installation as in most cases it would not be possible. This is because the frame has to be lifted directly above and then placed down onto the brackets. The brackets will then latch onto the grooves of the frame and hold it in place. Mounting the wall brackets flush to the wall and ceiling would not provide the clearance needed for the frame to be lifted above the brackets. Elite Screens recommends the wall brackets be placed no closer than 4-6”(depending on the thickness of the frame) below the ceiling as that ditstance would give you the clearance needed to lift the screen above and then onto the brackets.
