REMOTE PLUS CONTROLLER
The Remote Plus controller system consists of the joystick and the controller box. The joystick sends signals to the controller box through a cable attached to the back of the joystick. This cable connects to the controller box through the utility tray. The Remote Plus joystick is typically located at the end of either the right or the left armrest. See figure 33. The Remote Plus controller box is located underneath the front of the power base.
JOYSTICK FUNCTIONS
The joystick function is similar for all controller configurations. The joystick controls the direction and speed of the wheelchair. See figure
34.When you move the joystick from the neutral (center) position, the electromagnetic brakes release and allow the wheelchair to move. The further you push the joystick from its neutral position, the faster your Jazzy moves. When you release the joystick and allow it to return to the neutral position, you engage the electromagnetic brakes. This causes the chair to decelerate and come to a complete stop. If your Jazzy 1400 begins to move in an unexpected manner, immediately release the joystick. Unless the joystick is damaged, this action should stop your Jazzy 1400.
WARNING: Do not use the on/off key to stop the chair. This may cause injury.
Battery Condition Meter
The battery condition meter consists of ten LEDs over the speed indicator. These lights are an accurate indication of your usable battery capacity. They also alert you of any faults found within your unit. See “Trouble Codes.”
