Page 20: Positioning
0.25 m. Note It is recommended that the low force compact remote module (DX2-RJM-LF) is not used as an attendant remote. If the remote is dropped, the mass of the remote, relative to the joystick deflection force, makes a runaway more likely than if the full deflection force joystick (DX2-ACU) is used. - Page 21 GBK65701 DX2 Compact Remote Modules Installation Manual Issue 1 Cables must be secured between their connectors and any point of flexing so that flexing forces are not transferred to the connectors. Warning Route and position cables and remote modules so that they are free from physical strain, abuse or damage, such as snagging, crushing, impacts from external objects, pinching or abrasion.

Page 22: Programming
Note Dynamic Controls recommends that you do not select ACU for the Joystick Source parameter for profiles 1 - 5. The ACU profile is automatically selected by the master remote module when the ACU takes control of a system. If another profile, other than the ACU profile, is selected and the profile has been configured with the ACU as the joystick source, then the Attendant indicator will not operate—the Attendant indicator only operates with the ACU... -
