How to Use an RJ Cooper Switch Interface for Scanning

July 27, 2016

Your Tobii Dynavox T10 supports both autoscan (the software will automatically scan the page - you select the scanning speed, scan pattern, and number of passes) and two-switch scanning (Switch 1 advances the scan, and Switch 2 makes the selection).

To set up your T10 for scanning, you must set up a Bluetooth wireless connection ("pair") your T10 to the switch. Following are instructions for pairing your T10 to a RJ Cooper Bluetooth Switch Interface for scanning.

(The RJ Cooper Bluetooth Switch Interface is available at http://www.rjcooper.com/)

If you are only using one switch, make sure that it is plugged into the port indicated as “Port 1-2” on the switch interface. If you are using a second switch, plug that into the port indicated as “Port 3-4” on the switch interface.
 
1. Turn off your T10, then turn it back on.
