Install Your Toast Flex for Guest

If you've just purchased a new Toast Flex for Guest for your restaurant, check out the installation steps below. 

Note: Before you begin, turn off and unplug your Flex terminal from the outlet. 

 

  1. Gently flip and place your Flex Terminal so that the display faces down and you have easy access to the thumb screws on the back. Unscrew the two thumb screws and lift up to remove the back plate.
  2. Next, unplug the green (GFD) and blue (HDMI) cables and remove the cable from the terminal by guiding it back through the stand. Note that there may not be any cables plugged in. If nothing is plugged into the green and blue ports, then move on to Step #3.

  3. Grab the free ends of the 5 ft extension cable attached to your guest wedge device and connect the green (GFD) and blue (HDMI) cables to the Flex terminal. Make sure the "UP" text is facing up when plugging in. Place the cable through the slot in the top of the terminal to make it easier to put the back plate on.

Connect a Longer Cable (5 ft) to Your Toast Flex for Guest

If your restaurant currently has a Toast Flex for Guest (wedge), you can add a longer 5 ft cable to further add more distance between the terminal and the Guest-Facing Display (GFD). 

Prior to connecting your new 5 ft cable, make sure to disconnect your GFD from your terminal and remove the existing cables from the installation process. Then, follow the steps outlined in this PDF.
