Before you begin
Wireless access.
The skydrop™controller uses
WiFi and must be installed close
to a strong signal source for
optimal performance.
If the WiFi signal strength is low,
you may need to move your
wireless router or install a WiFi
range extender.
Installing outdoors.
The skydrop™controller is
designed to be installed
indoors. If you need to place it
outdoors, ensure it is encased
in a weather-resistant enclosure.
Visit skydrop.com/outdoors for
additional information.
Power Down.
If you need to remove
the controller, it is highly
recommended to power down
the device rst. To power down,
press and hold the power
button located on the bottom
of the device until the jog
dial glows yellow and wait 10
seconds. Then you can detach
the controller from the wall plate.

when mounting to wood studs. Do not
over-tighten screws; hand tightening is
recommended.

optimal screen viewing.

slot (or through the breakaway tab on the rear of
