The electronic controller is what you use to operate your power chair. It takes the battery voltage and sends it to the appropriate system.

Also, it may be used to control some optional systems such as power elevating seats and lights.

The Pilot electronic controller is an integral electronic controller. All of the electronics necessary to operate the power chair are contained in one module. See figure 25.

The Pilot consists of:

1.joystick

2.on/off button

3.battery condition meter

4.speed control knob

5.off-board charger/programming socket

6.controller connector

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 further 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 netural position, 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.

On/Off Button

This is a green button located in front of the joystick. It turns the Pilot on and off.

WARNING! Unless faced with an emergency situation, do not use the on/off push button to stop the chair. This will cause the power chair to stop abruptly.

WARNING! Always turn the power off when you are stationary to prevent unexpected movement.
