BlueSwitch User Manual
Thank you for purchasing BlueSwitch! BlueSwitch is a Bluetooth hub
for interfacing to switch accessible devices. BlueSwitch enables the
switch user to connect as many as three external switches to control
up to three Bluetooth devices (cell phones, computers, tablets). The
user has the ability to cycle through the Bluetooth devices and select
the device they want to control. In this way, one set of switches
controls up to three different devices. In addition, the user can choose
to output their switch activations to two relays, enabling the user to
control wired devices such as a nurse call button.

Input Switches
There are three switch jacks and buttons labeled SW1, SW2, and SW3.
This is where you will connect the user’s switches. BlueSwitch accepts
any 3.5mm mono switch output, such as a push-button switch or the
output of a Sip-and-Puff switch. The small
buttons beside each switch jack are there for
convenience to test the functionality of
switches during setup – pressing a button is
identical to activating its associated switch.
All three switch inputs DO NOT provide the
same functionality. It is important to connect
the switches to the correct switch input as
described in the “Switch Configurations”
section, based on the user’s desired
configuration.
Relay Outputs
There are two jacks labeled “Out 1” and “Out
2”. These are relay outputs, allowing the user
to connect wired devices they wish to control
such as a nurse call button. The relays support
a maximum of 1 amp of current and 30 volts
DC. Exceeding these specifications will damage
BlueSwitch.
