Lightwriter SL40 QR Range

A dedicated range of robust and stylish accessories have been designed for the Lightwriter® SL40, enabling users with a wide range of physical capabilities to carry or support their communication equipment with ease.

Eye blink switch

The Eyeblink 2 Switch uses an invisible infrared beam to detect eyeblinks, and discriminates between voluntary and involuntary blinks and only responds to voluntary blinks. It can be set up very quickly, and requires minimal calibration. It calibrates automatically and has Sensitivity and Duration Controls for additional fine tuning. It continuously re-calibrates to accommodate changes in background infrared levels (e.g. from changes in sunlight, and fluorescent lights being turned on and off), reducing the need for adjustment after it has initially been set up.

Click Switch
Low profile, low force switch with adjustable switch force in 5 steps between 1.5 and 4 oz (40 – 100 g).
This option is designed for users with progressive conditions who become unable to continue using the keyboard on an SL35 or SL38.

It plugs into the keyboard Lightwriter to allow scanning with 1 or 2 switches.

The Scan Module has high intensity backlit displays to cater for vision impairment, and also has a text display to show the sentence being spelled, so the Scan Module is fully self-contained and can be mounted on a wheelchair tray, or over a bed away from the Lightwriter itself. Ideal for intubated patients in Intensive Care.

We offer protective covers to avoid damage due to accidental spillage over the keyboard, and to prevent food, etc clogging up the keyboard.
