92 | R-net Technical Manual | Chapter 3 – Programming
If any Profile has latched actuators set, then an Emergency Stop Switch must be fitted to the system via the Profile jack
socket on the Joystick Module. If it is required for the system to operate without an Emergency Stop switch, this can be
achieved via the parameter, Emergency Stop Switch.
WARNING:
Curtiss-Wright accepts no liability for losses of any kind resulting from the use of a wheelchair with latched drive or actuator
operation and with no normally closed Emergency Stop Switch fitted.
8.3
LATCHED TIMEOUT - (TIME)
This sets the time-out period for latched drive and actuator control.
The programmable range is 0 to 250 Seconds in steps of 1 Second.
The time-out period is the maximum length of time the joystick can be in the neutral position before latched movement ceases.
If the period is exceeded, the latched movement will stop. Time-out is therefore an important safety feature that will stop drive
or actuator movement should the user be unable to stop the functions in the usual way. It is important that an appropriate
time-out period is set.
If a value of 2 or less is set, then the time-out function is disabled. This value should only be used in exceptional circumstances
and after all the risks have been fully assessed.
WARNING:
Curtiss-Wright accepts no liability for losses of any kind resulting from the use of a wheelchair with latched drive or actuator
operation and with a Latched Timeout value of less than 2.
8.4
LATCHED TIMEOUT BEEP - (BLEEP)
This sets whether a beep occurs as the end of the time-out period approaches. The beep is a reminder to the user to give a
joystick command to maintain the latched drive or actuator movement.
The programmable options are Yes and No.
If set to Yes, there will be a beep as the timeout period approaches.
If set to No, there will be no beep.

SEATING
9.0.1 SEATING MODULE ENABLED
This parameter sets whether a Power Module is compatible with an ISM or with a Seating Module.
The parameter options are Yes or No.
