How to Operate Flex® from the SmartPlex App

The TFT SmartPlex App allows full remote control of your Flex Monitor directly from your mobile device. By replicating the functionality of a panel-mounted or wireless controller, it gives operators the flexibility to adjust monitor direction, stream settings, and auxiliary devices on the fly.
