Beam
The Beam is generally used by those with adaptive switches that wish
to break the hard connection between the switch and
Swifty. Often this is a power wheelchair owner that wants
independence from an attendant for connecting and disconnecting his
or her switch.
Features:
• 3 Standard 1/8-inch (3.5-mm) Connectors, for up to 3 Switches
• 3.75 x 2.5 x 1.1 inches (95-mm x 64-mm x 28-mm)
• Weighs less than 5-ounces (140 grams), Including Batteries
• Powered by Two Internal AA Alkaline Cells
• One Year Warranty
For a Swifty user, the Beam sends up to 3 button events that Swifty
interprets as mouse buttons, joystick, buttons, or keyboard keys
based on Swifty configuration.
The Beam uses low power infrared light to communicate with the
Swifty much like a television remote control. A receiver is built
into Swifty and is located under the window in the overlay.
The Beam has internal batteries that will provide months of typical
operation.
The switch jacks accept industry standard adaptive switches, which
use 1/8-inch (3.5-mm) plugs. Single and dual switches with mono or
stereo plugs may be used with Beam. For example, our Sip/Puff Switch
may be used with one cable to the Beam for left and right mouse
buttons.
Swifty includes an integrated wireless receiver. With Beam, our
available infrared transmitter, someone can use adaptive switches
without being tethered to the computer. Beam also has an additional
input for up to 3 adaptive switches.
