Operating the LiNX Controller

The LiNX controller is used to operate your
power chair and all of its components.
The LiNX controller consists of (see figure 1):
1. joystick
2. keypad
3. off-board charger/programming socket
4. controller connector
5. power module
Joystick Control
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 farther 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 neutral position, you engage the
electromagnetic brakes. This causes your power
chair to decelerate and come to a complete stop.
Keypad
The keypad is located directly in front of the
joystick. It contains keys that you will use to
control your power chair.
On/Off Key
The on/off key turns the system on and off and
also displays error codes. See "Error Codes."
WARNING! Unless faced with an
emergency situation, do not use
the on/off key 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.
NOTE: If the joystick is not in the neutral
(center) position when you turn on the power,
you may cause a fault in the system. See "Out
Of Neutral At Power Up (OONAPU)."
