REMOTE PLUS 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 a power elevating seat and lights through an actuator/lighting module (ALM) located on the power base. The Remote Plus electronic control system is a modular system. The electronics necessary to operate your power chair are contained in several modules located on different parts of your power chair. Typically, the Remote Plus joystick is mounted to one of the armrests. It is connected to a power module located on the power base through the controller communications connector.

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 Remote Plus master remote consists of the following (see figure 28):

1.joystick

2.keypad

3.controller communications cable

4.off-board charger/programming socket

Joystick

The joystick controls the direction and speed of your power chair. When you move the joystick from the neutral (center) position, the electromagnetic brakes release and allow your power chair to move. The far- ther you push the joystick from its neutral position, the faster your power chair moves. When you release the joystick and allow it to return to the neutral posi- tion, 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, immediately release the joystick. Unless the joystick is damaged, this action should stop your power chair.

Keypad

The keypad is located directly in front of the joystick. See figure 29. It contains keys that you will use to control your power chair.
