Frequently Asked Questions

Answers about compatibility, DIY cabinet integration, motorized sliding operation and precise UST projector positioning for the SCREENPRO Motion Drive Module.

What is the Motion Drive Module?

The SCREENPRO Motion Drive Module, or MDM, is a motorized sliding drive system designed for DIY Laser TV cabinets and custom Ultra Short Throw projector installations.

It allows the projector tray to extend smoothly from inside the cabinet while keeping the main drive structure concealed.

What is the MDM designed for?

The MDM is designed for custom Laser TV cabinets, built-in media furniture and DIY home theater installations that require a UST projector to move forward into its operating position.

How does the MDM integrate with a cabinet?

The MDM is installed inside a compatible cabinet structure. When activated, the projector tray moves forward while the side rails and main drive mechanism remain inside the cabinet.

This creates a cleaner and more integrated Laser TV installation.

Does the entire mechanism extend from the cabinet?

No. Only the bottom projector tray is designed to extend outward. The side structures, drive rails and supporting mechanism should remain fixed and concealed inside the cabinet.

What cabinet opening is recommended?

The recommended DIY cabinet clearance is approximately:

905 × D × 230 mm (W × D × H)

The required depth depends on the selected tray depth and cabinet structure.

How should the required cabinet depth be calculated?

The internal cabinet depth should be based on the actual tray depth, plus at least 5 mm of additional installation allowance.

Additional space may be required for cables, connectors, ventilation and manufacturing tolerances.

What is the maximum recommended projector size?

The recommended maximum projector dimensions are approximately:

730 × D × 170 mm (W × D × H)

Actual compatibility also depends on projector weight, ventilation requirements, connector position and cabinet design.

Which UST projectors are compatible?

The MDM is suitable for many Ultra Short Throw projectors, provided the projector fits within the available tray and cabinet space.

Always confirm the projector width, depth, height, weight, ventilation requirements and connector locations before installation.

Can the MDM be used with a custom-size projector tray?

Available tray size depends on the selected MDM configuration. The cabinet and projector dimensions should be confirmed before production or installation.

Does the MDM provide vertical lifting?

No. The MDM is designed as a motorized horizontal sliding drive module.

It moves the projector tray forward and backward but does not provide vertical lifting.

Why is precise positioning important for UST projectors?

Ultra Short Throw projectors are highly sensitive to changes in distance, height and angle.

Even a small position change can affect image size, geometry, focus and alignment with the projection screen.

Does the MDM return to the same operating position?

The motorized drive is designed to provide stable and repeatable movement for consistent projector positioning.

The exact control and position-setting functions depend on the selected MDM configuration.

How is the MDM controlled?

The operating method depends on the selected control configuration and cabinet installation.

Confirm the required trigger, remote-control or integrated control method before ordering.

Can the MDM operate together with a projector or screen?

Synchronized operation may be possible when the MDM is connected to a compatible control or trigger system.

The actual operating sequence depends on the projector, screen and control configuration.

Does the cabinet require a top opening?

Normally no top opening is required because the MDM moves the projector horizontally rather than vertically.

The cabinet front must provide sufficient clearance for the projector tray to extend without interference.

What should be checked before installation?

Check the projector dimensions and weight, cabinet width, cabinet height, required depth, tray size, ventilation, cable routing, screen position and projection distance.

A complete extension and retraction test should be performed before the cabinet is permanently finished.

How should power and signal cables be routed?

Allow sufficient flexible cable length for the full sliding movement.

Cables should be secured away from the rails, drive components and tray edges to prevent pinching, pulling or movement obstruction.

How much ventilation space should be provided?

Ventilation requirements vary by projector model. Do not block the projector intake or exhaust openings.

The cabinet should provide adequate airflow around the projector in both the retracted and extended positions.

Does the MDM require routine maintenance?

Keep the tray, sliding path and cabinet interior free from dust, loose cables and foreign objects.

Periodically check the mounting points and confirm that the tray can extend and retract smoothly without interference.

Is professional installation recommended?

Yes. Professional installation is recommended because the cabinet structure, projector geometry, electrical connections, movement clearance and screen alignment must be coordinated accurately.

DIY installation should only be completed by users familiar with cabinet construction, electrical safety and UST projector positioning.

A small change.
A big impact.

The Sync-Trigger System, also known as a projector screen synchronizer, allows compatible SCREENPRO projection screens to respond automatically to the projector's power status. When the projector powers on, the screen extends; when the projector powers off, the screen retracts.

This creates a cleaner, smarter, and more integrated home theater experience.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you may want to know before choosing a SCREENPRO® projection screen.

The ideal screen material depends on your projector type, room lighting, and installation environment.

  • UST projector → UST ALR screen material
  • RGB triple laser projector → 3C or 3W anti-speckle material
  • Standard throw projector → white screen or long throw ALR material
  • Dedicated theater → acoustic transparent screen material

If you are unsure, SCREENPRO can recommend a suitable projection screen solution based on your projector model and room layout.

A standard white screen is best for dark or controlled lighting rooms. An ALR screen is designed to reduce the influence of ambient light and improve perceived contrast in brighter environments.

  • White screen → best for dark rooms
  • ALR screen → better contrast with ambient light
  • UST ALR screen → designed for ultra short throw projectors
  • Long throw ALR screen → designed for standard or long throw projectors

The best screen for contrast depends on your projector type and room lighting. In dark rooms, a high-quality white or acoustic transparent screen can deliver natural contrast. In rooms with ambient light, ALR screen materials help maintain deeper blacks and stronger perceived contrast.

  • UST projector → UST ALR screen
  • Standard throw projector → Long throw ALR screen
  • RGB triple laser projector → 3C or 3W anti-speckle material
  • Dedicated cinema room → White or acoustic transparent screen

For RGB triple laser projectors, SCREENPRO recommends 3C Anti-Speckle or 3W Woven Anti-Speckle materials. These materials are designed to reduce laser speckle while preserving image contrast, color performance and viewing comfort.

Technically yes, but a dedicated UST ALR screen usually provides better image performance. UST projectors project light from a steep angle, so a normal screen may show lower contrast, uneven brightness or visible texture depending on the material.

Screen size should be selected according to viewing distance, room size, projector brightness and installation space.

  • 8–10 ft viewing distance → 100"–120"
  • 10–12 ft viewing distance → 120"–135"
  • 12–15 ft viewing distance → 135"–150"

For commercial, church, education or large venue applications, custom screen size recommendations may be required.

  • 3C → balanced anti-speckle performance for RGB laser projectors
  • 3W → stronger anti-speckle performance with woven acoustic transparency

3C is suitable for many triple laser projection setups, while 3W is recommended when stronger speckle reduction and acoustic transparency are required.

Most SCREENPRO® floor-rising screens are designed as freestanding systems and do not require wall fixation for normal use. For special installations, wall brackets or additional securing methods may be recommended depending on the environment.

Temporary waves or wrinkles may be caused by transportation, temperature changes, humidity, storage conditions or installation tension. Tab-tensioned and fixed frame structures generally provide better long-term flatness than non-tensioned or folding screen systems.

Many SCREENPRO motorized projection screens support RF remote control, 12V trigger, USB trigger, RS232, Tuya Smart, Alexa and Google Assistant integration. Compatibility may vary depending on the motor and control system selected.

Yes. Material samples are available for testing before purchasing a complete screen system. Samples can help you compare brightness, contrast, texture, acoustic transparency and anti-speckle performance in your own environment.

Yes. SCREENPRO supports customized screen sizes depending on the screen type, material, aspect ratio and application requirements. Custom options are commonly used for home cinema, commercial spaces, conference rooms, churches and OEM/ODM projects.

Warranty coverage varies by product category. Motorized systems, projection surfaces and accessories are covered under SCREENPRO warranty policies. Please contact SCREENPRO for specific warranty details based on your product model and installation type.
