What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · April 26, 2026
The it-Control Pro is a dual-channel battery-powered controller that lets a person activate up to two switch-adapted toys independently or simultaneously, using either wired or wireless switches. It's designed for children with physical disabilities who have difficulty operating standard toys — including those who benefit from cause-and-effect play — and can be configured to require two people to press switches at the same time, making it useful for inclusive group play and developing early social skills. You're getting the controller unit itself; you'll also need separately purchased switch-adapted toys and at least one compatible switch to actually use it. The wireless capability pairs with Inclusive Technology's own it-Switch line, so check compatibility carefully before assuming any wireless switch will work.

What Setup Looks Like
- Out of the box
Install 2 AA batteries (included) and connect at least one wired switch via the 3.5mm jack to get basic on/off control of a switch-adapted toy. - With a guide
- Set the control mode (direct, latched, timed, or cooperative) using the LED indicator buttons — refer to the manual for the button sequences.
- Pair wireless it-Switches to each channel following the pairing procedure in the documentation.
- Allow 20–30 minutes for initial configuration and testing of both channels. See manufacturer support resources for detailed instructions.
- With professional help
- An occupational therapist (OT) or special educator can assess which control mode and switch placement best supports the child's motor abilities and learning goals.
- For children using this as part of a cause-and-effect or early AAC progression, an SLP or AT specialist can integrate it into a broader intervention plan — typically 1–2 sessions.
