- 1. Power Switch: Powers on and off the receiver. The switch will illuminate when the unit is on.
- 2. Synchronize port 1: Enables a footswitch to work with the receiver when aligned with the synchronize logo on that footswitch. The footswitch will be designated as “footswitch 1.”
- 3. Mode button 1: Selects which device footswitch 1 will control (which “mode” the footswitch is in). Pressing and holding this button will clear the Footswitch.
- 4. Active-device display 1: Displays which device is currently active and can be controlled by footswitch 1 (which “mode” footswitch 1 is in).
- 5. Active-device display 2: Displays which device is currently active and can be controlled by footswitch 2 (which “mode” footswitch 2 is in).
- 6. Mode button 2: Selects which device footswitch 2 will control (which “mode” the footswitch is in). Pressing and holding this button will clear the Footswitch
- 7. Synchronize port 2: Enables a second footswitch to work with the receiver when aligned with the synchronize logo on that footswitch. The footswitch will be designated as “footswitch 2.”
- Rear Panel
- 1. TPS output: Provides a dedicated connection to the TPS console, enabling the commands issued from the footswitch to be routed to the TPS console.
- 2. SERFAS output: Provides a dedicated connection to the SERFAS console, enabling the commands issued from the footswitch to be routed to the SERFAS console.
- 3. Expansion port: Provides a generic connection to addition devices, enabling the commands issued from the footswitch to be routed to the console.
- 4. Expansion port: Provides a generic connection to addition devices, enabling the commands issued from the footswitch to be routed to the console.
- 5. SFB Serial Connectors: Enables firewire connection with newer devices, such as CORE and SERFAS Energy, eliminating the need for multiple connection cables.
- 6. Volume control: Controls the output volume.

The Footswitch
The footswitch rests on the operating-room floor and provides foot control of all
devices connected to the iSwitch system. The footswitch houses three buttons
and two pedals, which enable the user to alternate between operating-room
devices and perform device-specific functions. When a button or pedal is pressed,
the footswitch transmits a radio signal to the receiver, where the command is then
routed to the appropriate device.
The footswitch and its features are described in Figure 2 below.

1. Footswitch Handle
2. Button II (Mode Button): Selects which device the footswitch will
control. See the “System Settings” section of this manual for Mode
options.
Note Button/pedal function for all other buttons and pedals depends
on which operating-room device, or “mode,” is selected. See the
“Using the footswitch controls” section in this manual for device-
specific button functions.
