13.0 Specialty Input Devices (SIDs)

13.1 Installing the SID onto a Power Chair

Because of the wide variety of SIDs available and the
constantly changing specifications, it is not practical to provide
a definitive list of SID classifications in this manual.
You, your health care professional, and wheelchair provider
will determine the exact classification of the chosen type of
SID. Further details on each SID type are given in the
following sections.
In addition to the SID for controlling the power chair functions,
the Omni has facility for the connection of an optional, user
operated On/Off switch. The function of this switch is identical
to the On/Off button on the Omni's front panel.
13.2 Connection of SID, (Fig 13.0)
Port comprises:
A 3.5mm (1/8") mono jack for the User Switch.
A 9-way input connector with a TRACE standard pin-out.
A Sip and Puff input.
Make sure that all SID connections to the Omni are securely
mated.

13.3 D-type Connector

Ensure the connector is correctly inserted and if there are
locking screws, ensure they are fully tightened.
Some SIDs will have a "detect link" fitted. This link enables
the Omni to detect if the D-type connector has become
disconnected.
To enhance the system safety and to ease diagnostics, it is
recommended that this feature be used if the SID has such
a link. If this feature is used and the Omni detects the SID
is disconnected, a screen as in Fig 13.1 below will appear.
