Single Switch Auto Scanning Setup and Use
The following steps are for setting up Switch Control with one external switch and auto scanning. The
scan will automatically move across the screen and the user will activate one switch to make selections.
Step 1: Setup Your Accessibility Shortcut
The Accessibility Shortcut gives you the ability to easily turn Switch Control on or off by triple clicking the
Home Button on your iDevice.
Follow these steps to setup your Accessibility Shortcut:
1. Go to Settings App > General > Accessibility > Accessibility Shortcut
2. Choose Switch Control
Step 2: Connect Your Switch
If you are using a Bluetooth
®
switch like the Blue2™ from AbleNet, you can pair it with your iDevice.
Follow these steps to pair your Bluetooth switch with your iDevice:
1. Turn your Bluetooth switch on
2. Go to Settings App > Bluetooth
3. Turn Bluetooth to On
4. Choose your Bluetooth switch from the list of Devices
5. Once paired it will say Connected
Step 3: Setup Your Switch
Once your switch is connected to your iDevice, you will need to set it up within Switch Control.
Follow these steps to set-up your switch with Switch Control:
1. Go to Settings App > General > Accessibility > Switch Control > Switches
2. Choose Add New Switch
3. Choose External
4. You will be prompted to activate your external switch. Once activated you will be prompted to give your
switch a name. Because you can setup multiple switches, we suggest using an intuitive name like
“orange switch” so that you can identify it at a later time.
5. Choose Select Item
6. Choose Switch Control at the top of the screen to go back to the main Switch Control Settings screen.
