Design and Function

Intended Use
7.1
The
Multi Switch
is intended to control up to four devices/technical aids with one input device (mechanical
or proximity switch). The mechanical switch is only intended to support auxiliary wheelchair function. The
Multi Switch offers the user greater freedom of operation and increased function control. The switch is USB
powered and contains its own control electronics.
The
Multi Switch
is also available as part of a package which includes proximity sensors. The sensors can be
used as input devices and require no force to activate. The addition of mo-Vis proximity sensors increases the
level of autonomy afforded the chair user.
Multi Switch Features
7.2
mo-Vis'
Multi Switch
features:
•
one 3.5mm stereo input jack, allowing a mechanical switch or proximity sensor input connection;
•
two 3.5mm stereo output jacks, allowing up to four separate outputs (with splitter cables, sold
separately);
•
a LED for each output channel, indicating status and activity of the channel;
•
clear, audible feedback;
•
fully adjustable input and output parameters via configuration software; and,
•
multiple mode settings.
Proximity Sensor Features
7.3
mo-Vis proximity sensors, sold separately from and compatible only with the
Multi Switch
, feature:
•
two size options:
•
12mm for installations with limited space; and,
•
24mm for installations requiring increased sensitivity.
•
sensitivity adjustment via configurator software; and,
•
easy calibration and configuration.
CAUTION
Moisture (e.g., rain) is a conductive substance. While a negligible
amount of liquid may not interfere with device operation, a coating
of moisture can cause the sensors to constantly read as activated.
