Introduction
The Self-Calibrating Auditory Tone Infrared (SCATIR) Switch is a multi-
purpose momentary-contact optical switch with auditory feedback designed for
use by persons who experience difficulty in activating mechanical switches. It
works by detecting a beam of reflected pulsed infrared light. It is suitable for use
with a variety of movements, including eye-blink, eyebrow movement, finger
movement, head movement or facial muscle movement. The controlling body
part does not need to be in physical contact with the switch sensor.

Description
1. Front of Sensor Box
Relay Out: Plug the relay cable into this port. It connects directly to the
device you want to control.
Relay On: This green light is on as long as the relay is closed/switch
closure occurs.
Valid: The valid light flashes three times when the unit is turned
on, when the dip switches are changed or the mode is set.
To Sensor: The end of the sensor plugs into this port.
Mode/Status: Flashes when switch closure occurs.
Sens Power: The red light blinks continuously as long as the sensor box has
power.
Off/On: Slide to off position when not in use.
Charge: The light stays on while the unit is being charged.

2. Back of Sensor Box
12/24 VDC: Plug the 12V charger into this port to charge the
internal 9V rechargeable battery.
Battery: This is a rechargeable 9 volt battery that has been
installed for you.

3. Bottom of Sensor Box
Dip Switches: These switches are used to control the tone, the sound
of the tone and the calibration mode.
Set Switch: This recessed switch is used when setting the manual
calibration.

Operation
1. Dip Switches
On the bottom of the unit you will find 4 dip switches or four small white
switches. These switches are used to control the tone, the sound of the tone and
the calibration.
Up is on. Down is off.

Beep Off SW1 Down
Continuous Tone SW2 Up

2. Adjusting Activation Distance
The maximum distance allowed for activation (“activation distance”) can be
adjusted from a few centimeters to less than a millimeter. This adjustment can
be made manually or automatically (self-calibration), as explained below. When
the activation distance is reduced to its minimal value, the switch simulates a
zero force touch switch. When activation distance of, say, four centimeters, is
chosen, the switch can be activated from as far away as four centimeters.

3. Self Calibrating Mode
When the switch is being activated by a body part that cannot always maintain a
constant activation distance from the sensor, the switch can be operated in self
calibrating mode. In this mode, placing the activating body part at ANY given
distance within range of the switch will serve to define that distance as the
activation distance. Once activated at this distance, the switch may be turned off
by moving the body part completely out of the range of the sensor.
To set the self calibrating mode:
1. Turn the sensor box off.
2. Set the dip switches to: SW3 Down
SW4Up
3. Position the sensor.
4. Place the body part in front of the sensor.
5. Turn the sensor box on.
Once activated the switch will be turned on by moving the body part any where
within the range of the sensor.

4. Manual Calibrating Mode
When in manual calibrating mode, the activation distance is set by the user.
1. Turn the sensor box off.
2. Set the dip switches to: SW3 Up
SW4Down
3. Position the sensor.
4. Place the activating body part just beyond the desired activation
distance.
5. Turn the sensor box on.
6. Press the set switch beside the Dip Switches with the end of a pencil
until you hear three beeps and the valid light flashes three times.
7. The manual calibrating mode is now set.

5. Auditory Tone
The switch incorporates an auditory tone which emits a beep when the switch is
activated. This auditory feedback can be enabled or disabled by means of a dip
switch. The user can select either of two auditory feedback modes:
Beep Tone Mode:
A short momentary beep is emitted to indicate
activation. The relay light remains on throughout the
full period of activation.
Continuous Tone Mode:
A tone is emitted which lasts as long as the switch is
activated. The relay light remains on throughout the
full period of activation.
