12 | Basic Operation Instructions |
Speed Dial
The GC Controller provides a speed dial to control the speed of the power chair. See figure 3.
To change the speed:
1.Push the on/off key to power on the chair and the controller.
2.To increase your speed, turn the speed dial clockwise.
3.To decrease your speed, turn the speed dial counterclockwise.
NOTE: We recommend that the first few times you operate your power chair, you set the speed to the slowest setting until you become familiar with your new power chair.
Maximum Speed Indicator/Battery Condition Meter
The maximum speed indicator/battery condition meter consists of five LEDs ar- ranged in an arc over the on/off and horn keys. See figure 1. When functioning as the battery condition meter, this indicates the status of the electrical system using LED codes. For example, as the battery voltage drops, the number of LEDs reduces from right to left. When the battery capacity drops to 10% or below, the left red LED will flash.
Battery condition meter codes are as follows:
!Left Red LED Flashing Slowly or Steady: Battery charge is low; Charge the batteries as soon as possible.
!Step up of LEDs: The controller is in programming, inhibit, or charging mode.
!All LEDs Flashing Quickly: The joystick was not in the center position when the power was switched on, or the controller system detected a fault; Refer to the Fault Code Table.
LOCK MODE
The controller is equipped with a feature that enables you to “lockout” unautho- rized users.
To lock the controller:
1.While the power is on, press and hold the on/off key until it beeps (approximately 1 second.)
