Da-Lite FullVision FC10A40.5X72 16:9 Parallax 1.0 Fixed Frame Screens (82" Diagonal)

Product Overview

The Da-Lite FullVision FC10A is a borderless 16:9 HDTV fixed frame projection screen engineered for high-ambient-light commercial AV environments. The FC10A40.5X72 provides an 82" diagonal viewing area measuring 40.5" × 72" with the Parallax 1.0 ambient light rejection (ALR) surface, designed specifically for standard-throw projectors in rooms where ambient light cannot be fully controlled. The aluminum frame installs just 1-3/16" off the wall with wall and ceiling-cable mounting support, and the borderless design integrates visually with the wall surface when the projector is off.

Product Description

The Da-Lite FullVision FC10A series brings the borderless fixed frame design together with the Parallax 1.0 ambient light rejection surface — a combination engineered for conference rooms, collaborative workspaces, and corporate environments where window light or overhead fluorescent lighting cannot be fully dimmed. The FC10A40.5X72 provides a 40.5" × 72" 16:9 HDTV viewing area at 82" diagonal, a compact footprint well-suited to smaller meeting rooms and huddle spaces. The Parallax 1.0 surface uses a micro-structured lenticular optical design to preferentially reflect projector light toward the viewer while rejecting ambient light from above and the sides, maintaining image contrast in challenging lighting conditions when used with a standard-throw projector. The borderless aluminum frame extends only 1-3/16" from the wall, and the screen surface attaches to the rear of the frame via Velcro for field replacement. Standard black backing prevents light bleed-through from behind the screen. The seamless surface spans the full 82" diagonal with no visible center joint. Wall mounting uses two screws; ceiling cable suspension is supported as an alternate.

For ceiling-recessed electric screens in similar sizes, see the Tensioned Advantage and Tensioned Contour series at creationnetworks.net.

Key Features

• Borderless Frame Design — No visible frame border; the screen blends with the wall when the projector is off.
• Ultra-Low Profile — Only 1-3/16" from wall to screen surface.
• Velcro Surface Attachment — Field-replaceable screen surface without removing the frame.
• Lightweight Aluminum Frame — Rigid construction; two-screw wall hanging bracket.
• Ceiling Cable Suspension Option — Alternate installation where wall mounting is not available.
• Standard Black Backing — Prevents ambient light transmission; maintains full image contrast.
• Seamless Viewing Surface — No center seam on any model.
• Parallax 1.0 ALR Surface (Gain 1.0) — Lenticular micro-structure ambient light rejection surface designed for standard-throw projectors in high-ambient-light environments; rejects overhead and side ambient light while maintaining projected image brightness.
• 16:9 HDTV Format — Native format for 1080p, 4K UHD, and all standard HDTV signal sources.

Typical Applications

• Conference rooms and huddle spaces with significant ambient light from windows or overhead fixtures
• Corporate meeting rooms where full light control is not feasible
• Open-plan collaborative environments where standard-throw projection with ALR is specified
• Commercial AV installations requiring a borderless fixed frame screen with ambient light rejection

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How does the Parallax 1.0 surface differ from standard HD Progressive surfaces?

A: Parallax 1.0 is an ambient light rejection (ALR) surface that uses a lenticular micro-structure to preferentially reflect projector light toward viewers while rejecting off-axis ambient light from overhead fixtures and windows. Standard HD Progressive surfaces (0.6, 0.9, 1.1, 1.3) do not have ALR properties. Parallax 1.0 is specifically designed for standard-throw projector configurations.

Q: Is the FullVision FC10A available in larger sizes?

A: The FC10A series is available in 16:9 format. Contact Creation Networks at creationnetworks.net for current size availability and pricing across the Parallax and Parallax Stratos surface lines.

Q: Can the screen surface be replaced without removing the frame?

A: Yes. The surface attaches to the rear of the frame with Velcro, allowing field surface replacement or upgrade without disturbing the frame mounting.

Q: What is the installation method?

A: The aluminum frame mounts to two screws in the wall. Alternately, the frame can be hung from the ceiling using cables for a suspended installation where wall fastening is not available or desired.
