-
Should the power plug be mounted locally? Yes, the pre-attached cable has no end-plug.
-
How much space is required for installation? This depends on the size of the screen. Please refer to the CAD drawings and the installation manual in the Downloads section for detailed information on how much space is needed for each screen size.
-
Can the Supernova Flex Classic be mounted on the ceiling? Yes, the Supernova Flex Classic can be mounted either on the wall or the ceiling.
-
Can the Supernova Flex Classic be mounted in the ceiling (recessed)? It is possible but dnp denmark does not offer such solution.
-
Can something be installed behind the Supernova Flex Classic? When the screen is installed on the wall, the clearance between the wall and the bottom bar is 10mm [0.4”]. Since it may sway slightly, we recommend that you do not install anything behind the screen. If it is important for the customer to have something behind the screen, the Supernova Flex Classic should be mounted on the ceiling instead. This is a standard option.
-
Is the housing available in customised colours? The housing is available in white only, unless you are buying large quantities.
-
Is the Supernova Flex Classic available in customised sizes/formats? The screens are available in standard sizes/formats only, unless you are buying large quantities. See the product specification sheet in the Downloads section for available sizes.

What is the length/height of the standard drop? The standard drop is 400mm [15.7”] calculated from the bottom of the housing to the top of the upper masking frame.
-
Can the drop length/height be customised? It is possible to order the screen with custom drop for an extra cost and extended delivery time. The maximum possible drop is 700 mm [27.6”].
-
Can the lower set point be adjusted? Yes, the bottom stop can be adjusted with enclosed Allen key. We recommend to lower the screen to full drop for best flatness. The factory preset is at full drop.
-
Can the top set point be adjusted? Technically it can be done, like you set the bottom stop, but it is highly recommended NOT to adjust the top stop position. If this is not done correctly and the Supernova foil touches the cabinet when rolled up there is a high risk of severe imprints and other damages to the screen. Please note that the top stop adjustment screw is sealed from the factory and that the warranty is void if the seal is removed.
-
In what side is the motor and wire positioned? The motor is positioned in the left side of the screen, when viewed from the front.
-
How long is the pre-attached wire? The pre-attached wire is 2m [6.5ft] long
-
What are the differences between version 3.0 and 3.1 The main difference is the motor and the stop set adjustment method but cabinet length, cabinet details, IR sensor and IR remote are other changes. Contact your dnp denmark representative for details.
