THE EUROPA CONTROLLER

The electronic controller is what you use to operate your power chair. It takes the battery voltage and sends it to the appropriate system. The electronic controller also enables you to monitor battery charge, electronic controller functions, and the condition of your electrical system. Also, it may be used to control some optional systems such as power elevating seats and lights. The Europa electronic control system is a modular system. See figure 24. The electronics necessary to operate your power chair are contained in several modules located on different parts of your power chair. Typically, the Europa Controller is mounted to one of the armrests. The other components are located inside the power base.

The controller supplied with your power chair has been pre-programmed to meet your needs. The program is set using either a personal computer with software provided by the controller manufacturer or with a hand-held programmer, also provided by the controller manufacturer.

WARNING! The controller program can affect speed, acceleration, deceleration, and braking. If it is programmed incorrectly or outside of the safe limits as determined by your healthcare professional, it can create a dangerous situation. Only the power chair manufacturer, an authorized representative of the manufacturer, or a trained service technician should program the controller.

The Europa Controller consists of:

1.

of the power chair. When you move the joy-

 

stick from the neutral (center) position, the elec-

 

tromagnetic brake will release and allow the

 

power chair to move. The farther you push the

power chair will move. When you release the

 

joystick and allow it to return to the neutral po-

 

sition, you engage the electromagnetic brake. This helps the power chair decelerate and come to a complete stop. You can also use the joystick control power actuators.

WARNING! If your power chair begins to move in an unexpected manner, immediately release the joystick. Unless the joystick is damaged, this action should stop your power chair.

Out Of Neutral At Power Up

Your power chair joystick is equipped with Out Of Neutral At Power Up (OONAPU). If you power up the system and the joystick is not in the neutral position, the system status light flashes rapidly for either as long as the joystick is out of the neutral position or five seconds. If this has happened and the all the segments on the battery condition meter are flashing, you may have set a fault code. See “Europa Error Codes.”
