On/Off Button

This button is located at the front of the joystick housing. It is used to turn the wheelchair
on and off, to remove the joystick from sleep mode (if programmed) and to lock or unlock
the joystick (if programmed).

Speedometer

The speedometer is used to gauge the relative speed of the chair in comparison to the
maximum speed possible. The right-most LED indicates current maximum speed. As the
joystick is pressed, the LED's in the speedometer will light until the maximum speed is
reached. If the bottom, left GREEN LED is flashing, the joystick is in speed limit mode,
which limits the drive speed to a pre-programmed value, typically when the seat has been
elevated and the wheelchair is required to drive at 20% speed. Refer to Adjusting the
Speed on page 30 for more information.

Joystick

The joystick has proportional drive control, meaning that further the joystick is pushed
from the upright (neutral) position, the faster the wheelchair or seat moves. Your top
speed, however, is limited by the programmed settings.
To slow the wheelchair to a stop, simply release the joystick. The wheelchair has
automatic speed and direction compensation to minimize corrections.

Charger/Programming Input

Located at the front of the joystick housing. This provides easy access for charging the
wheelchair batteries. This port also serves as the Remote Programmer Communication
connection.

Information Gauge Display

Located on the front of the joystick housing, it provides the following information to the
user on the status of the wheelchair -
1. Power is On.
2. True state-of-battery-charge, including notification of when the battery requires
charging:
A. GREEN LEDs are lit, indicating well charged batteries.
B. AMBER LEDs are lit, indicating batteries are moderately charged. Recharge
batteries before taking a long trip.
C. RED LEDs are lit, indicating batteries are running out of charge. Recharge batteries
as soon as possible.
The Information Gauge display also serves as a system diagnostic device when a fault is
detected by the control module. A specific number of flashes of the LEDs indicate the type
of fault detected. Refer to the table for the diagnostic indications of the wheelchair status.
