    The light touch of a finger turns circuits on and off without pressing down a contact. Program these switches to fit your application—control their color, pattern, and sensitivity. Change the color to show different process statuses. For more visibility, change the intensity of the color or choose a light pattern. These switches can flash, rotate, and show other patterns, all at speeds you can control. To change how much force they need to actuate, alter the sensitivity. With a high sensitivity, they’ll actuate even if you’re wearing gloves. With a low sensitivity, they’re more resistant to accidental actuation.
    To program your switch, download the free Banner Pro Editor Software. You’ll need a switch programming kit (sold separately) to connect your switch to the software.
    Copolyester Actuator Base—Switches with a copolyester base are FDA compliant for incidental food contact once installed.
    Style D—Style D switches let you program their action to be momentary or maintained.
    Audible Alarm Alert—Switches with an audible alarm can be programmed to 12 different tones ranging from sirens to melodies.
