REMOTE PLUS CONTROLLER

The Remote Plus is a modular electronic control system. The electronics necessary to operate the power chair are con- tained in several modules located on different parts of your power chair. The master remote is located typically on the end of an armrest. The other components are located inside the power base.

The Remote Plus system consists of the following components:

!master remote

!communications cable(s)

!power module

!motor wiring harnesses

!battery wiring harnesses

!actuator lighting module (for optional equipment)

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.
