Safety precautions General Multi Switch is intended to control multiple devices/technical aids with one input device (switch). Incorrect use or installation may lead to risk of injury to the user and damage to the connected device or other property. In order to reduce these risks, you should carefully read this instruction manual, paying particular attention to the safety instructions and warning texts.

Page 14
CAUTION! Testing Multi Switch should always be tested in a safe surrounding after the physical installation of the Multi Switch unit and/or a Multi Switch proximity sensor or adjustment of the parameters.
The Multi Switch unit is USB-powered, and contains its own control electronics. One 3.5 mm stereo input jack allow to connect a mechanical switch or a mo-Vis proximity sensor as input device. Two 3.5 mm stereo jacks allow to connect up to four separate outputs.
Page 16
The small 12 mm sensor allows installation on a very limited space. The regular 24 mm sensor offers a more sensitive activation, thanks to a larger sensor surface. The sensitivity of both sensors is fully adjustable with the mo-Vis Configurator software.

CAUTION Moisture (e.g. rain) is also a conductive substance. A few drops of rain will not cause issues, but a water film can cause the sensor to be activated all the time. The bigger the surface of the sensor the more sensitive it will be.
For all details on how to install and use the software, we advise you to consult the manual of the mo-Vis Configurator software (included in the software download). User profiles Depending on your profile (user, attendant, dealer, OEM), you will...

Installation instructions Safety precautions CAUTION The Multi Switch is not waterproof. Mount the device in such a way that no water (rain) can enter the device. Some drops of water will not cause problems, excess water must be avoided. CAUTION The Multi Switch Proximity sensors may be influenced by Moisture.
CAUTION The Multi Switch should not be used in conditions where malfunctioning of the device can cause potential risk situations. CAUTION The device contains a controller that continuously checks the integrity of the device, whenever a problem is detected the device will be switched off automatically.
Connect the Multi Switch with the USB connection lead to a PC on which the mo-Vis Configurator software is installed. The device will be powered on automatically and an USB connection will be established allowing to use the mo-Vis configurator.

Make sure that the user has visual contact with indication LEDs at the front of the Multi Switch, to enable him to check the status. Although every action can trigger an auditive signal, it is not advised to have this signal as only available check for the user. Secure all cables with straps or fasteners.
Usage Safety precautions CAUTION The Multi Switch Proximity sensors may be influenced by Moisture. Moisture (e.g. rain) is a conductive substance. A few single drops of rain will not cause issues, but a water film can cause the sensor to be activated all the time. CAUTION Keep radio transmitters (e.g.
First time use Dealer assistance During first time use by the user it is advised that the dealer or service engineer assists and explains the different possibilities to the customer (the user and/or his attendant). If needed, the dealer can make final adjustments. User testing It is important that the customer is fully aware of the installation, how to use it and what can be adjusted to optimise his experience.
Is every function accessed by the switch functioning providing the least effort for the user? If needed, adjust the Multi Switch (with the mo-Vis Configurator software if required) and retest till optimal position and functioning. Explain to the customer possible problems and how to address them (see Troubleshooting).
Operation modes Note: When power is removed from the Multi Switch all outputs will return to their open condition. Select Modes The select mode is used to select one of the active outputs. If only one active output is selected, the select modes have no meaning because there is nothing to select.

A corresponding number of beeps is generated. The selection LEDs are activated. When the desired output is selected, press again to activate it. The output will react depending on the output’s ‘Lock’ setting: the output is closed as long as the input is kept closed, or ...
Momentary/Timed or Switched Momentary The output will be closed as long as the input is closed, or The output will be closed for a set time. Switched The output will toggle between open and closed. This is useful to switch something on continuously.
Calibration Mode Auto The system will automatically adjust over time. This is only usable when the user of the device is able to keep a distance of at least 30mm from the sensor when not operated. Manual Ask the user to go to the position where he would like the input to be open, then press the button on the box, the system will store that position as the open reference.
Troubleshooting Flash codes When a fault occurs the LED will start to flash. There is a long delay and then a number of flashes with a short delay. Count the number of flashes and look up the according code in the table below. Flash Reason Required action...
