Tremor dampening
Use this parameter to reduce the effect of hand tremors
on the joystick. Low values are suitable for users with low
frequency (slow) tremors. Higher values will suit users with
higher frequency (fast) tremors. Setting the parameter value
to 0 % results in no tremor dampening.

9.6 Setting up a system for latched driving

To set up a wheelchair for latched driving, an external stop
switch must be fitted to the wheelchair. Ideally, the external
stop switch should be highly visible and easily accessible to
provide an extra level of safety and security for the user.
Connect the external stop switch to a control input. Invacare
recommends to connect the external stop switch to the
input module. The external stop switch should be a single
pole, normally-open switch. Mostly latched driving is used in
combination with a Sip and Puff array, where the lip switch
serves as external stop switch.
Configure external stop switch parameters
Configure following parameters to set up the external stop
switch.
