How to Choose the Right Control Box and Handset for My Frame
The control box and handset are the brain and interface of your Progressive Desk. Here's how they match to frame models and what to know if you're replacing or upgrading them.
How the Control Box and Handset Work Together
The control box receives power from the wall and drives the motors in each leg. The handset is a display and button interface that sends commands to the control box. They communicate via a dedicated cable (RJ45 style). The control box and handset are paired to a specific frame system — not all combinations are interchangeable.
Control Box by Model
| Model | Control Box | Handset | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mini Ryzer | Integrated with motor column | Basic memory handset | Control box is not user-replaceable separately |
| Solo Ryzer | External 2-leg control box | RT-11 (4 memory presets) | Standard — most common |
| Prime Ryzer | External 2-leg control box | RT-11 (4 memory presets) | Same system as Solo Ryzer |
| Corner Ryzer | External 4-leg control box | RT-11 (4 memory presets) | 4-leg box is Corner-specific — not interchangeable with 2-leg |
Handset Types
- Basic handset:Up/Down buttons only — no memory presets, no display
- RT-11 memory handset:LED display showing height, 4 memory preset buttons, M button for programming — standard on all current models
Replacing a Handset or Control Box
If your handset or control box needs to be replaced, contact Progressive Desk support with your model name and serial number. Replacement parts are available but must be matched to your specific frame. Do not assume a control box or handset from a different model will be compatible.
💡 Already have a Progressive Desk? To find your model and serial number, check the sticker on the underside of the crossbeam or on the control box housing.
