FLIGHT 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 enables you to move the power chair, as well as monitor battery charge, electronic controller functions, and the condition of your electrical system. The FLIGHT is part of a modular electronic controller system. The system consists of more than one module. Typically, the FLIGHT is mounted to one of the armrests. See figure 24. It is connected to a power module located on the power base through the controller communications cable. The FLIGHT may be used to control some optional systems, such as lights.

The controller supplied with your power chair has been pre-programmed to meet the needs of the end user. The program is set using either a personal computer with software provided by the controller manufacturer or with a hand-held program- mer, 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 FLIGHT consists of:

1.joystick

2.keypad

3.off-board charger/programming socket

4.controller connector

5.controller power module

Joystick

The joystick controls the direction and speed of your power chair. When you move the joystick from the neutral (cen- ter) position, the electromagnetic brakes release and allow your power chair to move. The farther you push the joy- stick from its neutral position, the faster your power chair moves. When you release the joystick and allow it to return to the neutral position, you engage the electromagnetic brakes. This causes your power chair to decelerate and come to a complete stop.

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

Keypad

The keypad is located in front of the joystick. It contains keys necessary to operate your power chair. See figure 25.
