What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · April 26, 2026
This starter pack combines a dual-channel switch controller with a wireless pressure switch, allowing someone to operate battery-powered toys or devices using minimal physical effort. It's designed for children or adults who have very limited hand or finger movement and can't activate standard toy controls — the wireless switch responds to the slightest touch, and the controller box handles the timing and activation logic so the user doesn't need precise or sustained pressure. You get the controller unit and one wireless switch, which together form a complete working system for switch-adapted toys (the toys themselves are sold separately and need 3.5mm switch jacks or a battery interrupter). One thing to be aware of: to actually control a toy, you'll need either a switch-adapted toy or a battery interrupter cable, and if you want two-switch cooperative play, you'll need to purchase an additional it-Switch separately.

What Setup Looks Like
- Out of the box
- Insert AA batteries into the it-Control Pro.
- Pair the wireless it-Switch to the controller by following the pairing sequence.
- Connect a switch-adapted toy or switch-adapted device via the 3.5mm output jack.
- Select your desired activation mode using the controller's mode button, then press the switch to activate the toy.
- With a guide
- Choose the appropriate activation mode (direct, timed, latched, or cooperative) for the user's needs — consult the included manual for mode descriptions.
- Adjust timing settings as needed using LED indicators as feedback.
- Position the switch within 10 metres of the controller for wireless use — consider mounting options for optimal placement. Allow 20–30 minutes for full setup. See manufacturer support resources for detailed instructions.
- With professional help
- An occupational therapist (OT) or ATP can assess the user's motor access site (hand, foot, head) and recommend correct switch size and placement.
- An OT can configure cooperative modes for two-user interaction or therapeutic cause-and-effect goals.
- Expect 1–2 sessions to trial placement and mode settings for best outcomes.
