Device selection module and method for selecting devices

摘要

A device selection module and a method for selecting one or more devices to be controlled based on operation of a foot pedal apparatus are provided. The foot pedal apparatus has a moveable member. The device selection module includes a first switch having a first operational state for selecting a first device. The device selection module includes a processor configured to detect an operational state of the first switch. The device selection module includes an RF receiver operably communicating with the processor. The RF receiver is configured to receive a first RF signal. The first RF signal indicates at least partial displacement of the moveable member of the foot pedal apparatus. The device selection module further includes an RF transmitter operably communicating with the processor. The processor is further configured to induce the RF transmitter to transmit a second RF signal having a first device selection identifier in response to the first RF signal when the first switch has the first operational state. The first device selection identifier indicates the first device is selected.
