1.0 iVAC Pro Switch DEC Dust Extractor Controller) – Overview
This Handbook covers the Operation, Configuration and Installation of the iV C Pro
Switch DEC (Dust Extractor Controller).
The iV C Pro Switch DEC is the component within the iV C Pro System that is used to
control your Dust Extractor.
Installation and operation is simple and easy as the iV C Pro Switch DEC
communicates with all other Pro System components wirelessly – no cable links are
required.
To operate your Pro Switch you need one or more iV C wireless transmitters - Pro
Remotes or Pro Tool Plus's.
Wireless remote control of the Pro Switch can be Manual, utomatic or Both:
Manual, The Pro Remote is portable (hand held) and allows you to switch your
Extractor ON or OFF from anywhere in your workshop.
Automatic, The Pro Tool Plus is clamped onto your power tool supply cable, it detects
when the tool is running and automatically switches your Extractor ON and OFF as
required.
Manual & Automatic, Pro Remotes and Pro Tool Plus's will work together without
conflict.
The iV C Pro Switch integrates perfectly with all other iV C Pro System components,
to create a clever, modular system that you can adapt and expand over time.

2.0 User Operation - iVAC Pro Switch DEC
2.1 Warnings - User Operation
2.1.1 Please read this Handbook before use. Retain for future reference.
2.1.2 The Pro Switch is intended for indoor use, in dry locations only.
2.1.3 When turning the Dust Extractor ON and OFF manually
(by means of the Mode Switch), care should be taken
not to exceed the cycle time specified by the Extractor
manufacturer (cycling ON/OFF too quickly can damage
some Extractors and Electronic Controllers).
2.1.4 lways isolate the Extractor when it is unattended (i.e.
nights and weekends). Wireless interference to the Pro
Switch could start the Extractor unexpectedly.
2.1.5 lways isolate the Extractor before servicing. Safe
isolation is essential as the Extractor can be started by
another person, remotely.
2.2 Pro Switch function
The iV C Pro Switch is the component of the iV C wireless Pro System that is used to
control your Dust Extractor - e.g. turn it ON or OFF.
2.3 Mode Switch – 3 position rocker
The Mode switch is manually set to UTO, OFF or ON.
AUTO The Pro Switch responds to wireless ON / OFF
commands from Tool Plus and Remote units.
The LED will flash and blink to indicate wireless
activity (details in section 2.5)
ON Power will be supplied constantly to the Dust Extractor regardless of
wireless commands from Tool Plus and Remote units.
The LED will be ON constantly.
OFF Power is removed from the Dust Extractor regardless of wireless
commands from Tool Plus and Remote units.
The LED will be OFF constantly.
Note 1: When no USB Power is supplied to the Pro Switch, regardless of the Mode Switch position
( UTO or OFF or ON) The Pro Switch will have no impact on the Dust Extractor.
Note 2: When using the Mode Switch to manually control the extractor, the ON delay, OFF delays, Wait
Until Extractor Stops and Minimum Run Time functions will not operate (see section 2.6). void quick
cycling ON & OFF as this could damage extractors and controllers.
DEC handbook (5 wire) MJA R14 5 of 20

2.4 AUTO Mode - Operation process
When set to UTO, The Pro Switch receives and processes wireless ON / OFF
commands from iV C Remotes and Tool Plus's.
The Pro Switch records these ON / OFF commands into it's memory in preparation for
turning your Dust Extractor ON or OFF.
NOTE: The first power tool to turn ON will start the Extractor, The last power tool to
turn OFF will stop the Extractor
2.4.1 – Wireless ON commands
When the Pro Switch receives the first ON Command from any Remote or Tool Plus, it
waits for 1.5 seconds and then starts the Dust Extractor. See section 2.6.1
2.4.2 – Wireless OFF commands
s the Pro Switch receives OFF commands from the active Tool Plus's or Remotes, it
keeps the Extractor running until the last OFF command is received, then it waits a
while before stopping the Extractor. See section 2.6.2
2.5 LED Indicator (V17 firmware – subject to change)
1. LED flashes 2 times at 1 Second intervals (approx 4 seconds). This is during the
Pro Switch initial power up (power-up reset - see section 2.6.5)
2. LED blinks once every 4 seconds. Standby mode - power is applied (the
Extractor is OFF)
3. LED is constant OFF. The Pro Switch has no power applied – it is off
4. LED is constant ON. The Pro Switch has turned the Dust Extractor ON and is
waiting for a Tool Plus or Remote OFF command.
5. LED flashes at a steady rate of approx. 2 times per second. This is during the
Minimum Run Time period (see section 2.6.4).
6. LED blinks at about 5 times per second. This is during the Delay OFF period –
after the last OFF command was received until the extractor switches OFF (see
section 2.6.2).
7. LED blinks twice and a short pause. (1) This is the Wait Until Dust Extractor
Stops period - (see section 2.6.3) (2) This can also indicate that a power failure
has occurred (see NVR function - section 2.6.7).

2.6 Functional Features Explained
2.6.1 Turn ON Delay Time
The Turn On Delay is to avoid two start-up power surges occurring at the same
time on a supply circuit that is feeding both the Power Tool and the Dust
Extractor. This function is to avoid tripping the main circuit breaker (overloading).
The Turn On Delay time is factory set to 1.5 seconds.
2.6.2 Turn OFF Delay Time
The Turn OFF Delay is to allow the Dust Extractor to continue to run after a Power Tool
has been turned off. This function is to clear up any remaining debris at the power tool
and in the ducting. It may also be used to avoid quick (potentially damaging) cycling of
the Extractor (details in section 3.3.1).
2.6.3 Wait until Dust Extractor Stops
This feature is provided for certain specific Dust Extractors that require the Dust
Extractor Motor to completely stop before restarting (details in section 3.2).
2.6.4 Minimum Run Time
Larger Dust Extractors can be damaged if they are turned ON/OFF too frequently. The
Pro Switch has the ability to make sure that the Dust Extractor runs for a Minimum Run
Time. It can also be used for smaller Dust Extractors to avoid frequent cycling of the
Dust Extractor motor (details in section 3.3.2).
2.6.5 Pro Switch Initial Power Up when power is applied via USB)
Pro Switch Power Up Sequence:
1. The Pro Switch resets and clears it's memory.
2. The Pro Switch Ensures the relay contacts are open (the Extractor is OFF).
3. The LED lights 2 times (approx 4 seconds) to confirm it has reset.
4. The LED blinks once every 4 seconds – it is in standby, ready to operate.
5. The LED blinks twice and a pause – requires Mode switch moved to OFF.
NOTE: The Pro Switch has a safety feature (NVR) that prevents the Extractor turning
ON if the mode switch is set to ON or UTO when power is applied – see section 2.6.7
2.6.6 Master Reset
In today’s environment there are many devices that use wireless radio
frequency communications. In the unlikely event that the Pro Switch does not
function correctly due to wireless interference, the Pro Switch can be reset by
removing its power (e.g. by disconnecting its USB Power Supply) for 5 about
seconds.
DEC handbook (5 wire) MJA R14 7 of 20

2.6.7 Power Failure Protection NVR - No Voltage Release)
The Pro Switch will help to ensure that in the event of a power failure, your Extractor
does not start up automatically when power is reinstated.
The Pro Switch has a safety feature that prevents the Extractor turning ON if the mode
switch is set to ON or UTO when USB power is applied
How this works depends on the position of the Mode Switch when the power failure
occurred:
AUTO The Dust Extractor will only turn ON when a wireless ON command is
received from a Tool Plus or Remote.
ON The Dust Extractor will remain OFF (LED blinks twice and a pause). To
turn the Dust Extractor ON the Mode Switch must be first moved to OFF
and then back to ON
OFF The Dust Extractor will remain OFF
For this feature to operate correctly, the Pro Switch USB power supply and the Dust
Extractor should be on the same supply circuit.
NOTE Your Extractor will be factory fitted with a switch or NVR, these should be left in
circuit and operational. The Pro Switch is installed in addition to these.
