Adaptive Switch Connection and Operation
Kindle’s Next Page and Previous Page functions can be accessed using two adaptive switches or just a single
switch.
Adaptive switch(es) can be attached to PageBot via the 3.5mm connector ports labeled NEXT and PREV.
Adaptive switches come in many shapes, styles, sizes and colors to meet the needs and capabilities of the
user. The most prevalent connector type for adaptive switches is a standard 3.5mm plug which can be easily
attached to PageBot.
For information on the Sip/Puff Switch and Tap Switch offerings from Origin Instruments and to reference a
resource list of adaptive switch vendors, see
www.orin.com
.
Two Switch Operations
A two switch configuration can be achieved on PageBot by either connecting two physically separate adaptive
switches or one dual-switch. For operating PageBot with two separate adaptive switches, connect one switch
into the NEXT port and the second switch into the PREV port on PageBot.
For single dual-switch operations (e.g., The Sip/Puff Switch from Origin Instruments) connect the stereo cable
of the dual-switch into either the NEXT or PREV ports on PageBot.
NOTES: DIP Switches 1 and 2 should be in ON position for two switch mode
Single Switch Operation
You can also page forward and page back on PageBot using one single switch. To use one switch, connect
the switch to either the NEXT or PREV port on PageBot.
Example:
Connect a single switch into NEXT port and set DIP Switch 1 to OFF with Switch 2 in ON position.
In this configuration, a brief tap will turn to the next page, and a switch “hold” for 1.0 second will turn to the
previous page.
NOTES: Both mono or stereo cables work in either configuration and the detection and operation is automatic. Set the single switch
hold time via DIP Switch settings.
Attach one or two adaptive switches via 3.5mm connector to
PageBot here.
