  • Page 3 The G-Click offers Auto Positioning (see 1.5 below). Unlike a conventional switch that can be pressed and held a G-Click can only send a ’click’ ie a transient on then off. Although, it is possible to configure a G-Click to toggle its relay on then off based on two click actions.
  • Page 4: Manual Calibration

    See section 3 1.5 Auto Positioning Feature If a user changes position slightly whilst using a G-Click, the G-Click will self compensates and if the movement is significant it will trigger an auto recalibration. The G-Click will then continue to operate without the need for human intervention to realign it as would be required with a conventional switch.

    Notepad and make sure it is in focus ( ie click on the page ready to type) . When the G-Click is frozen (two yellow leds) press and hold the button until two red lids light (approx 6 seconds). The current configuration will then be typed into the open word processor document.
  • Page 8 3.2 Output style This configures the USB communication to the host computer. It can be a keyboard character or a left mouse click. It can also be turned off if only the relay is required. The relay will operate at all times and is not affected by the USB output selected.
  • Page 9: Operation

    As the G-Click is using a rate of change of tilt then if the sensitivity is set too high for a given movement it will trigger and if the G-Click is continuing to move in the triggering direction then another click or more could occur.
  • Page 10 In normal running alarms patterns below may be flashed on the LED dis- play, if this is only occasionally there is nothing to worry about however if frequent then action may be required. The G-Click will self adjust & an alarm may stay on for several seconds until this adjustment has complet- ed.
