Works, but designed by a 60's egghead without any common sense.
It works as advertised, but whoever designed this had to be on mind-altering drugs, and the instructions had to be written by an engineer writing technical manuals. So, it controls up to 8 tools. You would think the tool would have 8 switches, right. Wrong. The tool and the controller (called a switch) all have 6 toggle switches (very small toggle switches). The controller is set using only the first 2 toggles for 4 combinations (off off/on off/off on/on on). Apparently the other 4 toggles don't do squat. This gives you System Addresses A,B,C,D. Pretty clear eh? Just a thought...8 switches in every box. That might even be intuitive, don't you think? Or, just 4 in the switch and 8 in each tool controller?Then for the first tool you want to control, on the separate tool controller (which also has 6 toggles) you toggle on switch 4. Obvious right? The second tool you want to control, you turn on toggle 5, and the third you turn on toggles 4 and 5...up to tool 8 that has ALL THE switches on OFF. If you remember the binary system and hex codes from high school math, this will be a snap for you (after you read the instructions a dozen times). Still not sure what the 4 systems do (A,B,C,D). My guess is that you can have 4 of these, each controlled 8 tools. Anyone have 32 tools they need to hook up to vacs?Anyway, it works, and appears to be the only game in town unless you want to walk back and forth between your table saw and dust collector. Without this I tend to forget to turn on the vac, and thus my shop has always been covered in fine dust. Hopefully this solves the problem. Good luck setting up your system.
