Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about the emoswitch blue and the 30-day trial
Connectivity & compatibility
How does the Bluetooth connection work?
The emoswitch Blue uses Bluetooth® HID (Human Interface Device) and is recognized by the connected device as a standard keyboard input device. No additional software or driver installation is required. Enable Bluetooth®, connect the emoswitch Blue and get started right away.
Which devices and systems is the emoswitch Blue compatible with?
The emoswitch Blue can be connected to Bluetooth®-enabled PCs, laptops, tablets and compatible medical systems. Since the foot switch is recognized as a standard input device via Bluetooth® HID, no special software or additional integration is usually required. It is designed for use with common operating systems such as Windows, macOS and Linux. Actual compatibility depends on the specific device and the application used.
How much effort does setup take?
Setup is quick and straightforward: enable Bluetooth® → select the emoswitch Blue → connect → done. No USB dongle, additional software or drivers are required.
What is the difference between emoswitch connect, emoswitch wireless and emoswitch Blue?
The three variants offer different connection options for different requirements: emoswitch connect is wired (no USB dongle, ideal for fixed installations), emoswitch wireless connects via radio through a USB receiver (good for systems without Bluetooth®), emoswitch Blue uses a direct Bluetooth® connection without any USB dongle (ideal for modern, Bluetooth®-enabled systems). This way each variant remains the right choice for its use case.
Why is a connection without a USB dongle an advantage?
The emoswitch Blue does not need an additional USB receiver. That means: no occupied USB port, no additional hardware on the computer, no dongle that can get lost or damaged, fewer components during setup. This is especially convenient with modern laptops and tablets that have few ports. Simply connect via Bluetooth® and start working right away.
Do I need a USB port on my computer?
No. The emoswitch Blue connects directly via Bluetooth®. A USB port is not needed for the connection.
Can I use the emoswitch Blue with my existing medical application?
Usually yes, provided your system supports Bluetooth® HID input devices. The emoswitch Blue is recognized as a standard keyboard input device and can therefore be used with applications that process corresponding keyboard input. Not sure whether your system is compatible? Our team will gladly help you check.

Is the emoswitch Blue waterproof and disinfectable?
The emoswitch Blue has an IP67 protection rating and is therefore protected against dust and temporary immersion in water. The rugged aluminum housing and the materials used are designed for professional use and resistant to common cleaning agents and disinfectants. This allows the foot switch to be cleaned reliably even in everyday medical use.
