The Mounting Switch consists of a round pad mounted on a lever arm. The lever arm is attached to a white plastic mounting block. Pressing on the pad causes the arm to move and to activate the switch housed in the mounting block. The Mounting Switch is designed to be operated by head movements. Activation force can be adjusted and the arm reshaped to suit individual needs. Tactile and auditory feedback is provided.

Extra product information
Re shaping the lever arm
The arm can be permanently bent to suit the users needs using a hair dryer or heat gun.
Changing activation force
The switch comes set to the maximum required force.
The force is adjusted by cutting the spring. Instructions are provided with the switch.
Factors to Consider
The switch can be positioned out of the person's line of vision as the click feedback will alert them that the switch has been activated.
Adjustable activation force allows the exact activation force to be set, which may be suitable for users with changing needs.
The foam will absorb moisture and also provides a soft surface if used by cheek, chin or other sensitive areas.
The Mounting Switch needs to be attached securely with a mounting system to provide a reliable and secure switch position.
