7.0 Using the Power Base Joysticks
7.3 Using the Invacare MKIV A Joystick
By pulling up and releasing the toggle switch, the controller will be placed in the standard drive selection mode. The mode indicator light will remain on in drive selection mode. To place the con- troller in the power positioning mode (ECU/Recline), the controller must sit inactive until the mode indicator light begins to flash, then the joystick must be tapped to the left. (For complete instructions on the set-up and operation of the power positioning system through the joystick, please refer to the Invacare Owners Manual). The power positioning functions may be assigned to one or more drive modes depending on the system set-up. To select the required drive mode, the toggle switch must be pulled up again and released. This operation will be repeated until the required drive mode light appears. To operate the power positioning functions*, the joystick can be moved in the forward, reverse, left and right directions. The mode indicator light will remain OFF while in the power posi- tioning mode. To return the controller to standard drive selection mode, the controller must remain inactive until the mode indicator light begins to flash, then the joystick may be moved once in any direction.
*Note: The power positioning functions may be assigned to the joystick depending on the type of seat- ing system and the users preferred set-up (eg. forward= tilt, reverse= recline, etc...) An Invacare Programmer is required in order to program/assign the specific motor functions to the MKIV-A Joystick. Please refer to the Invacare Manual for complete programming instructions.
