VAT: Our prices are primarily displayed without VAT (Value Added Tax), as many of our customers qualify for VAT exemption due to disability. To benefit from this, simply complete a VAT exemption form, and we will refund the VAT on your first order. For future purchases, please create an account so we can update your account to VAT exempt status, ensuring that VAT will no longer be applied at checkout. If you are not eligible for exemption, VAT will automatically be added during checkout.Please note: that some products are VAT exempt by default.
Please Note: These products are sold with their intended purpose as described. We cannot be held responsible for any misuse of items where physical force has been used to damage the product or where it had been used in a manner that it was not designed for. If in doubt of its suitability, please get in touch.
The Pretorian USB Switch combines a low-profile 75mm assistive switch with a built-in USB switch interface. It connects directly to a compatible computer, phone or tablet, removing the need for a separate switch box for the main switch.
The function of the built-in switch can be selected using the controls and LED display on the reverse of the unit. A wide range of keyboard, mouse and gamepad functions is available, allowing the switch to work with different assistive technology software, educational activities and switch-access applications.
Two additional 3.5mm sockets allow external wired switches to be connected. The built-in switch and each external switch socket can be assigned a different function, creating a flexible one, two or three-switch access arrangement.
Adjustable switch-filtering settings can help accommodate different movement patterns. These include options for ignoring accidental short presses, preventing repeated activations, limiting the duration of a press and producing automatic repeated activations. When filtering is not required, the settings can remain off and the unit operates as a standard switch.
The built-in switch and each of the two external switch sockets can be assigned independently. This allows different functions to be combined within the same access arrangement.
The filtering functions are adjustable and remain off by default. Pretorian recommends configuring them around the individual user rather than applying the same settings to everyone.
Please note: A suitable adaptor cable is required for use with an iPad, iPhone or Android device and compatibility depends on the particular device, operating system and available connection. External assistive switches and mobile-device adaptors are not included. Switch-filtering settings should be selected around the individual user’s movement and access needs.
Further guidance is available in Pretorian’s Switch Filtering White Paper.
