Summary

This article will cover how to activate an external device such as a switch-adapted toy or appliance with a LITTLE Step-by-Step switch.

Required Items

• LITTLE Step-by-Step switch
• Switch-adapted toy or appliance (PowerLink and Battery Device Adapter available for toys and appliances that have not been adapted)

Instructions

1. While recording a message, press the record button one time to assign the toy/appliance to that message.
2. Record any additional messages to the other levels.
3. Once you’ve completed recording all messages, plug your toy or appliance into the 1/8-in (3.5-mm) labeled Toy/Appliance output on the back of the device. 
4. The toy or appliance will now activate for the duration of the message.

Tips and Troubleshooting

• We recommend a message of at least 3-5 seconds for the output to activate your toy or appliance
• You can increase the length of the toy or appliance activation time by recording a longer message. 
• Some toys or appliances require a 1/8-in (3.5-mm) mono plug-to-plug adapter cable to connect an external device. This is included with your BIG Step-by-Step.
