ACOM 560 Electronic Solid-State CW Paddles
ACOM 560 Electronic Solid-State CW Paddles are a modern electronic Morse code paddle designed for use with an external keyer or any contemporary transceiver equipped with a built-in CW keyer. Unlike traditional mechanical paddles, the ACOM 560 utilizes advanced force-sensing technology to detect operator input, delivering precise and repeatable keying performance without moving mechanical contacts. At the heart of the design is a microcomputer-controlled operating system with an integrated LCD display and menu-driven controls. Operator input is detected through load-cell sensors, eliminating internal moving parts that can wear over time and helping ensure long-term reliability. The paddle's activation force is adjustable from 10 to 60 grams, allowing operators to tailor the feel of each lever to their individual preferences. Force settings can be configured independently for the dot and dash levers and saved in up to five preset memory groups for quick recall. This precision pressure sensing provides consistent keying response and accurate dot and dash generation. Because the levers do not rely on mechanical contacts, the ACOM 560 operates silently and requires no routine maintenance associated with conventional mechanical paddles. The keying technique remains familiar to experienced operators while supporting higher operating speeds. A weight of approximately 2.20 pounds and a non-slip base help keep the paddle stable during operation. The ACOM 560 supports five operating modes: • Dual Lever Mode • Single A Mode • Single B Mode • Ultimatic Mode • Side Swipe Mode This flexibility allows operators to select the keying style that best matches their operating preferences.
