Abstract

An external selector assembly, such as a spring-loaded bayonet style switch, is removably attached to a compatible electronic device, such as a wireless microphone transmitter intended to be worn by a performer. A contactless magnetic interface has at least one signal magnet in the external selector assembly and an array of one or more Hall sensors within the device housing. If mounted on the compatible electrical device, the external selector assembly enables the user limited control without requiring any physical changes to the compatible electrical device except for the mounting of the external selector assembly. The external selector assembly and contactless magnetic interface are compatible with a sealed housing (e.g. sealed to prevent dust ingress and/or water).
