3.6.3 Switch Medium Change
A direction change occurs at the instant the User Switch is
operated, provided the parameter Double Click has been set
to 0. If the User Switch is released and a Forward/Reverse
command is entered, then drive will commence in the newly-
selected direction.
If the User Switch is not released and is held for a time period
set by the programmable parameter, Switch Medium, then this
is interpreted as a conventional User Switch operation, i.e. the
User Menu will be entered. There will be no direction toggle in
this instance.
As with the other two methods, if the User Switch is operated
for a period greater than the time set by the programmable
parameter, Switch Long, then the OMNI2 will go to sleep.
3.6.4 Seating Control
Standard control of seating movement is via the Forward/
Reverse command, while Left and Right commands will
select a different seat axis for movement. The direction of
movement is selected in the same way as that for changing
drive direction.
As is often required in head array situations, it is possible to
re-program the OMNI2 to control the seating movement in
alternative ways.
Refer to your health care professional or servicing agent.
3.6.5 Associated Programming
There are several standard R-net programming features that
may be useful when using this SID type. These include Joystick
Throw, Joystick Orientation and Joystick Deadband.
Refer to your health care professional or servicing agent.
For latched operation using this SID type, refer to section
Latched Operation.
It is possible to set up the OMNI2 so that the functions can be
navigated audibly. This can be useful if the user cannot easily
always see the OMNI2's screen. Refer to section Using the
Omni by Sound in the Advanced Section of this manual.

Driving is via a tube connected to the OMNI2's pneumatic
input and the User Switch is used to enter the User Menu.
For this type of SID, as well as a standard user switch, there is
the option of a pneumatic user switch.
Contact your servicing agent.
There are four sip and puff commands, each of which relates
to a drive direction. The table Fig. 3.3, shows the relationships.
In addition, the OMNI2 can be programmed so that two
pneumatic operations, made within the period set by the
parameter Double Click Time, will mimic a short operation of
the User Switch in Standby.
Refer to your health care professional or servicing agent.
The standard R-net programming parameter Joystick
Orientation may also be useful when using this type of SID.
Refer to your health care professional or servicing agent.
Standard control of seating movements is via a Hard Puff or
Sip and a Soft Puff or Sip will select a different seat axis for
movement.
If required, it is possible to re-program the OMNI2 to control
the seating movement in alternative ways.
Refer to your health care professional or servicing agent.
For latched operation using this SID type, refer to Latched
Operation.
