Controller Communications Connector

This connects the Europa to the power chair's batteries, motors, and motor brakes.

Off-Board Charger Socket

You may use an off-board charger to charge the power chair batteries through the 3-pin socket located
on the front of the Europa (see figure 1). If you use an off-board charger, the charger current should
not exceed 8 amps. Contact your Pride/Quantum Provider for more information.

Power Accessory Control

The Europa can support the control of up to five power accessory actuators once the actuator control
module is correctly configured. Power accessory actuators are selected and controlled using the joystick.
To select a power accessory actuator:
1. Press the drive program select key until the 7-segment display displays "A."
NOTE: The power chair will not drive in this mode.
2. Move the joystick left or right to move through the available actuators. Release the joystick to select
the desired actuator.
NOTE: The actuators are represented on the 7-segment display as a mixture of uppercase
and lowercase letters, which follow the sequential order of the actuators, e.g., Actuator 1 is
represented as "A" and Actuator 5 as "E." If your controller was programmed to operate a lighting
package, a sixth option "L" will be displayed.
3. Push the joystick full forward or full reverse to control the actuator adjustment.
NOTE: When using the Europa in conjunction with a TRx Seating System, give a reverse command
to extend the actuator, release the joystick, then give another reverse command to retract the
actuator. The reverse command toggles between extend and retract only for TRx units. If you
experience any problems with the operation of your TRx Seating System or your power chair,
contact your Pride/Quantum Provider.
4. Resume driving by moving the joystick back to neutral and selecting a drive program.
