    See if this sounds familiar...
Image: wheelchair You're in a wheelchair. You have some equipment sitting on a table that can be operated by a special switch (a joystick, a large push button, etc). However, in order to use the equipment you must either:
Move your chair over to the table to operate the equipment
Welcome
Here!
OR
Mount the switch on your wheelchair and run a wire from the switch to the equipment (just like a leash). Now you are stuck within a few feet of that table! Also, make sure you don't run over the wire and knock it loose!
Either one of these possibilities is better that nothing, but not much better.

Now you have an alternative!
Using our IRLink Remote Switch, you can now mount your special switch on your wheelchair and control your equipment from anywhere in the room WITHOUT ANY WIRES CONNECTING YOUR CHAIR TO THE EQUIPMENT!
How does it work?
The IRLink is made up of 2 sections - a transmitter and a receiver. The transmitter mounts on your wheelchair and converts up to 5 switch closures to infrared (IR) light. The light is then beamed to the receiver which then converts the IR light back to switch closures to control your equipment. Pretty neat, eh?

We offer 3 different models:
A single switch version. that uses a standard 1/8" mono jack for connection to many types of industry standard switches. This version sells for $77.99. Photo: irlink1.jpg
A version to handle two switch closures that has a standard 1/8" stereo jack for $87.99.
One that handles up to five switch closures and has a 9 pin jack for connection to many types of switches (joysticks, etc). This one sells for $97.99.
All three versions include everything you need:
Infrared transmitter
Infrared receiver
power cable for the IR transmitter
transformer for the IR receiver
cable to connect the IR receiver to your equipment
user's manual with complete operating instructions

We also sell a complete selection of switch cables and adapters to ensure that our IRLink Remote Switch will work with any type of equipment and special switch!

Now you can enjoy the freedom offered by our
IRLink Remote Switch!
