or Linux computer. Users may purchase a Bluetooth USB dongle
from the website to bring the full benefits of this wireless pedal to
any computer that is not Bluetooth compliant.
Unique Pairing
Multiple pedals can be operated in the same room without interfer-
ence. The Bluetooth pairing process uniquely establishes wireless
connectivity between the PageFlip Cicada and one computer. On
V3/V4/V5 pedals, Bluetooth pairing is automatically achieved with-
out a passkey once the pedal is selected among a list of discovered
Bluetooth devices on the tablet/PC. See Sec. 4.5 for instructions on
pairing older versions of the pedal. The label on the bottom of the
pedal identifies the version number by using a V2, V3, V4, or V5
marking.
External Switches
The PageFlip Cicada is compatible with a wide array of external
switches. Commonly used sip-and-puff and Jelly Bean pushbutton
switches may be plugged into the auxiliary switch outlet(s) via two
1/8" mono plugs.
Auto Power-Off Function
On all current pedals (version V5), PageFlip Cicada automatically
turns itself off 30 minutes after the last operation is performed. On
older versions of the pedal, the timeout period is 10 minutes. The
pedal has a battery life of 200 hours of continuous page turning,
or about 200,000 page turns. The pedal LEDs emit a triple flash
warning to indicate a low-battery condition.
Portability
Small lightweight pedal operates on AC power or two AA batteries.
