INSTALLATION Step 2: Attach Motor Controller Attach the LP Connect’s smart motor controller to chair frame with (2) self- tapping bolts. Location is dependent on design of mechanism and chair. Suggested locations are depicted in Figure 1 below. An optional angle mounting bracket (3434490001) can be used for additional installation options (see Figure 2). Be careful not to over tighten bolts. Location: top left Location: bottom left Location: bottom right Location: top right Figure 1.
INSTALLATION Figure 3. LP Sense ring terminal suggested location Step 4: Attach LP Connect Bridge The LP Connect bridge is necessary for one chair per row of seats. Each chair is connected into the previous chair for communication, and the LP Connect bridge is installed at the end of the row. If not installing LP Connect bridge on this chair, skip to Step 5. Attach the LP Connect bridge to the wood base of the chair with (2) 1.5” wood screws using a Phillips screwdriver. Location is dependent on design of chair.
INSTALLATION Step 5: Occupancy Detection Pad If not installing Occupancy Detection Pad, skip to Step 6. Using the latest in capacitive sensing technology, the system detects when an individual enters and exits the chair. The Occupancy Detection Pad should be installed between the foam cushion layer and the fabric layer. Once installed, connect the occupancy sensor to the 2 pin connector labeled “1” on the side of the smart motor controller as shown in Figure 5. Occupancy Detection Pad: installed just under the fabric layer of the seat cushion Occupancy pad plugs...
INSTALLATION THE FOLLOWING STEPS CAN BE COMPLETED AT MANUFACTURING OR ONSITE. Step 6: Connect Cables In Figure 6 below, Smart Motor Controller ports and associated cabling are identified for a single chair configuration. Connector sleeves are designed for tighter fit and water tight seal. It also reduces the risk of disconnection. Port A: the chair button switch 8 pin to 8 pin DIN adapter connects into port A.

INSTALLATION Connecting Multiple Chairs Figure 7 shows the wiring for two adjacent chairs in a row. For a loveseat configuration or the first set of chairs in a row, replace the power injector cable with a direct power cable (7706160001). Connect additional chairs by repeating the pattern shown in figure 7, connecting the power injector cable for each additional set of chairs to the open socket on the button adapter cable from the previous chair. Connect the LP Connect bridge to the open socket on the button adapter cable (right) of the last chair in the row. An example of four chairs in a row is shown in figure 8. Not shown: LP Sense Standard 5-pin button 5-pin to 8-pin button occupancy pad (7706150001), adapter cable (7706190001) LP Sense ring terminal cable (7706200001)
INSTALLATION OPTION 3: Manual configuration using end-of-line software with a single chair. An end-of-line software package will be provided to manufacturers that allows the configuration parameters to be downloaded to the motor controller. This software can also assign an ID. Please see Step 10 for more details. Step 10: Configuration of Chair The LP Connect package allows you to programmatically set soft limits, auto-close and other settings. Instructions are below. 1. An end-of-line software package will be running on a PC. This allows the configuration parameters to be downloaded to the motor controller. 2. A button will be pressed on the PC software that will download the parameters and may also run the chair through a self-test, generate a serial number, etc. The following parameters can be configured: •...
OPERATION Auto-Close Based on Exit (if enabled) This chair may be configured with the LP Sense Occupancy Detection System. This allows the chair to auto-close when guest exits the chair without closing the ottoman completely. LP Sense Auto-Stop Based on Touch Using the latest in capacitive sensing technology, LP is a safety-enhancement feature intended to stop the motor when human skin contact is detected on the...
