Ensure your computer and all SmallHD monitors are connected to the same Ethernet or Wi-Fi network. You may use both Ethernet and Wi-Fi simultaneously if they share the same network.

Hardwired Ethernet (Recommended):

• Connect your SmallHD Production Monitors (Cine, Ultra, Quantum) via Ethernet for the most reliable experience.

Wi-Fi (Optional):

• Quantum 27, Quantum 32, and Ultra 10 support Wi-Fi natively when running PageOS 6.
• Cine 13, Cine 18, Cine 24, OLED 22, OLED 27, Vision 17, and Vision 27 require a third-party wifi dongle plugged in via USB. You can purchase one here.

The Status Panel provides real-time information about your monitor's incoming video signal to ensure accurate monitoring. Input source, resolution, frame rate, bit depth, color format, and chroma subsampling info can be seen here. Additionally, a Blink Monitor feature helps to identify monitors, especially helpful in multi-monitor environments.

• Input/Res - Displays the current input source (HDMI or SDI) and detected resolution
• FPS/Bit Depth - Shows the input signal’s frame rate and bit depth.
• Color Pipe- Indicates the applied color space or LUT.
• Chroma/Range - Displays chroma subsampling and legal/full range information.
• Blink Monitor - Flashes the monitor to help identify which device is being controlled.

The Pages Panel provides a complete view of all Utility, Custom, and Default Template pages, giving you full control over page organization and customization. From this panel, you can add or remove tools (except on the Dashboard page), enable or disable tools using the toggle switch, and adjust tool parameters through the icon. You can also disable Monitor Follows Page Selection to edit pages freely without changing the monitors active display.

Page Types

• Utility / Custom Pages Can be created or edited in Fleet Control or directly on the monitor.
• Default Template Pages Include Exposure, Focusing, Scopes, and Framing pages, which must be created on the monitor.
• Dashboard Page Serves as a display-only reference and cannot be edited in Fleet Control.

The PageOS Tool Control section allows you to modify pages, overlays, and exposure tools with the same precision and responsiveness as if you were operating directly on a physical monitor. Fleet Control mirrors the familiar PageOS interface, enabling seamless adjustments and intuitive navigation. Any changes you makesuch as modifying tool settings or updating page layouts are applied instantly across all connected monitors, ensuring a consistent and efficient workflow throughout your production setup.

Each pages' tools can be enabled and disabled with the blue toggle, and configured by clicking the > button. By default, the monitor will display the page and any tools you have enabled in Fleet Control. To configure other pages without making them visible on the monitor, Disable the Monitor Follows page selection toggle.

The Color Pipe tab provides a centralized view of all connected monitors, allowing you to compare and manage their color settings side by side. From this panel, you can assign specific color spaces and gamma curves to optimize HDR or SDR workflows, load custom LUTs or creative looks directly from your computer, and verify that color management remains consistent across every monitor in your production environment.

The Firmware panel in Fleet Control lets you view, manage, and update monitor firmware directly over the network. You can check the current firmware version, select or drag and drop a compatible update file, and install it instantly; no SD card required. Updates can be applied to individual monitors or pushed to multiple devices at once, ensuring all monitors stay current with the latest PageOS version.

The Projects and Groups feature lets you organize monitors into logical sets that match your production workflow. This is especially useful when managing multiple monitors across different locations or departments, allowing you to keep setups clear, structured, and easy to navigate.

• Projects: Create and name projects to track specific shoot days, scenes, or setups (e.g., Day 1 / EXT, Day 2 / INT). Each project can include multiple monitors with shared pages and configurations. You can add custom titles and assign devices to keep each setup organized. Note: Projects are temporary in this version of Fleet Control; persistent project saving will be introduced in a future release.
• Groups: Within a project, group monitors by creative role or location, such as Camera A, Video Village, or Director’s Tent, to synchronize settings and maintain consistency across devices. Groups can be created quickly using New Group from Selection for efficient management.

SmallHD PageOS monitors support Profiles, a snapshot of all the monitor's configuration. These files can be saved and loaded directly to the monitor's SD card, or by using the Fleet Control app.

When setting up for a project or resetting monitors afterward, you can save and load profiles on multiple devices simultaneously instead of having to do each one-by-one. To save a profile, click Save Profile above and choose the desired location for the file. To load a profile, click Load Profile, navigate to the file’s folder, and select it.

NOTE: You can also use Fleet Control to restore any monitor to its factory default settings.
