Yard Master Electric Series

Elite’s MaxWhite® FG and Spectra White FG are very comparable as they both are self-supporting matte white front projection screen surfaces with fiberglass backing. Having a fiberglass backing is beneficial as the embedded fiber glass improves rigidity which results in a more stiff material. Thus, the fiberglass backing provides the flattest possible surface a non-tensioned screen can offer. Additionally, the fiber glass backing eliminates any side curling non-tensioned materials are susceptible to, especially under cold temperatures. Both the MaxWhite® FG and SpectraWhite FG will provide an excellent quality image in light controlled environments. The main difference between the materials is that the MaxWhite® FG utilizes a more neutral white material for better white levels. Both the Spectra White FG and MaxWhite® FG have viewing angles of 180° (90° left and right). The wide diffusion uniformity on both the materials maintain luminance levels throughout the entire surface. The MaxWhite® FG is also offered on many more of or products, whereas the SpectraWhite FG is solely available on the Starling and Starling Tension. The Spectra White FG material is also slightly thicker than the MaxWhite® FG.

Elite Screens’ MaxWhite® and MaxWhite® FG are excellent screen materials for front projection presentations. The materials have a multi-layer weave and textured surface coating that offer perfect diffusion uniformity, color reproduction, and black and white contrast. Both have a 1.1 gain that allows for 180° viewing angles (90° left and right) and are black-backed which avoids light penetration. They are also easy to clean, mildew resistant, and GreenGuard® Gold UL 2818 certified. The key difference between the MaxWhite® and MaxWhite® FG is that the MaxWhite® FG has a fiber glass backing. This is beneficial as the embedded fiber glass improves rigidity which results in a more stiff material. Thus, the MaxWhite® FG provides the flattest possible surface a non-tensioned screen can offer. Additionally, the fiber glass backing eliminates any side curling non-tensioned materials are susceptible to, especially under cold temperatures. Lastly, the MaxWhite® FG is also flame retardant and complies with NFPA 701 Standards.

Tension material provides a flatter screen surface and for better uniformity and even light distribution without waving or curving on the projection surface. These problems could be caused by temperature variations in multiple layer materials. Newer non-tensioned materials such as our MaxWhite® or MaxWhite® FG have greatly reduced occurrences of this flaw to the point of arguably matching its flatness in some cases. Some prefer non-tensioned due to aesthetics but tension still generally has superior flatness.

The viewing angle of the MaxWhite® material is 180°.

After the screen closes upon the initial syncing process, simply turn off the projector’s power cycle, and restart it again. When the projector turns back on, the screen will deploy to its fullest extent.

Wireless 12V Trigger for Yard Master Electric – ZOMS-TR12V
For the instructional guide on synchronizing the ZU12V, please click here.

Here are the instructions on how to sync your RF remote. Radio Frequency (RF) Remote Synchronization Instructions for: ZOMS-RF-W-V1.0 and  ZOMS-RF-W-V2.0

1. Unplug the screen’s power cable from the power outlet.
2. Press and HOLD the UP button on the RF remote
3. While holding the UP button, plug the screen’s power cable back into the power outlet. a. You should hear a single “beep” when the power cable has been plugged in, indicating it has entered pairing mode.
4. After hearing a set of multiple “beeps”, release UP button for 2 seconds, then press UP button again.
5. You should now be able to control your electric screen with the RF remote control.
6. If unsuccessful repeat from Step 1.

All Yard Master Electric Screens only use Radio Frequency to control the screen’s operation. If you have a projector that does not have a dedicated 12v trigger output port, you can use the ZOMS-TR12V-V2. This wireless 12v trigger accessory is included with all Yard Mater Electric/Tension with serial numbers beginning with 19AE and newer. The ZOMS-TR12V-V2 plugs to the projector’s power terminal so no 12v projector trigger is required.  Please click here for instructions on how to program the ZOMS-TR12V-V2.

The RF remote is not rechargeable and requires one button cell CR2032 battery.
