VII. OPERATION

2. Battery Charge Level

The joystick LED array is composed of ten (10) LED’s. ♦Three (3) red

♦Four (4) amber ♦Three (3) green

When all ten LEDs are lit continuously, there is a full charge on the batteries. As you use your power chair and the batteries discharge, LEDs in the array will begin to turn off in descending order. A single lit red LED indicates the lowest state of operable charge on the batteries. The batteries should be charged immediately.

NOTE: To ensure a dependable battery charge, refer to the “Battery Charging” section on pages 29-30. Doing this will prolong the life of your batteries and spare you loss of operational power while you are using your chair normally.

3. Control System Status Indication

The joystick LED array is also designed to help you diagnose any problems with the electrical components of your power chair. The LED array does this by flashing on and off in a coded sequence. The battery gauge and maximum speed/profile indicator show the status of the control system.

Battery Gauge is Steady

This indicates that all is well.

Battery Gauge Flashes Slowly

The control system is functioning correctly, but you should charge the battery as soon as possible.

Battery Gauge Steps Up

The wheelchair batteries are being charged. You will not be able to drive the wheelchair until the charger is disconnected and you have switched the control system off and on again.

Battery Gauge Ripples

The joystick has been displaced (OONAPU) while the control system is switched on. Release the joystick to clear the fault.

Note that joystick OONAPU (Out Of Neutral At Power Up) is not a fault. Simply by removing your hand from the joystick and allowing it to return to the neutral position, the fault will immediately clear. If the condition persists after removing your hand, the joystick may be damaged. Consult a Golden Technologies representative.
