How do I program stow and deploy positions on a Flex monitor using the controller?

This guide explains how to program Stow and Deploy positions for your Flex Monitor using a connected wireless or panel-mounted controller—no app required. Perfect for setting up your monitor quickly in the field right after power-up.

If you're working directly with a Flex Monitor and have a connected controller—either wireless or panel-mounted—you can program custom Stow and Deploy positions without using the TFT SmartPlex App. This is ideal for quick field setups or when a mobile device isn't available.

What You Need Before You Start

  • The monitor must be powered on.

  • You must begin the Stow programming process within 1 minute of startup.

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. Power On the Monitor

    • Ensure incoming power is connected.

    • Be ready to act within the first 60 seconds.

  2. Enter Program Stow Mode

    • Press and hold the Stow/Deploy button on the controller for 5–10 seconds.

    • The controller will begin flashing yellow to confirm you’ve entered programming mode.

  3. Move the Monitor

    • Adjust the monitor to your desired Stow position using the controller.

  4. Save the Position

    • Tap the Stow/Deploy button once.

    • A white flash confirms the position has been stored.

  5. Exit Programming Mode

    • Press and hold the Stow/Deploy button again for 5–10 seconds.

    • The controller will turn blue, confirming you’ve exited programming mode.

  6. Operate the Stow Function

    • Move the monitor freely as needed.

    • To test the stow, press the Stow button once.

    • The controller will flash yellow while stowing, then turn blue once complete.

  7. Deploy the Monitor

    • Press the Stow/Deploy button again.

    • The monitor will move to a preset deploy position, typically 50% horizontal and 50% vertical.
