What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · April 26, 2026
The Specs IC is a small single-button switch with a 1.375-inch activation surface, designed to send a signal to any compatible switch-accessible device when pressed. It's well-suited for people with limited hand or finger movement who need a compact, mountable switch — including children or adults who wear it on their body rather than placing it on a surface. The package includes a flush base, a strap base, a 24-inch strap, and five interchangeable colored caps so the switch can be customized for visual distinction or user preference. This is just the switch itself — you'll need a separate switch-accessible device (AAC device, computer interface, toy adapter, etc.) to plug it into via a standard 3.5mm mono jack.

What Setup Looks Like
- Out of the box
Attach the preferred base (flush or strap), snap on a colored cap, and plug the 3.5mm cable into a compatible switch-accessible device — the switch is ready to use. - With professional help
- An occupational therapist (OT) or ATP should assess optimal switch placement, mounting angle, and activation force relative to the user's motor abilities.
- Expect 1-2 sessions to trial positioning and confirm reliable, consistent activation before finalizing the setup.
