Programming
Warning:
Incorrect or inappropriate programming of a DX System may put the
wheelchair into a dangerous state.
Dynamic Controls accept no responsibility or liability for accidents caused by
incorrect programming.
This chapter must be read and understood before attempting to program a
DX System containing an SLM.
7.1
Introduction
The driving performance of an SLM is dependant on its programming. An SLM can be
adjusted for a particular application and the driving performance defined to suit the
requirements of an individual.
The SLM is programmed at the time of manufacture with factory settings defined by
the wheelchair manufacturer (OEM) and Dynamic Controls. Some parameters may
be modified later using the HHP, for individual user requirements. If more than one
type of wheelchair is to be used by the customer, each wheelchair type may have its
own set of optimum settings.
Non-module specific programming of a DX System is contained in the Power Module
and DX Remote Installation Manuals. A servo steered DX System with one drive motor,
uses a single channel DX-PMB2-S, while a two drive motor system uses a DX2-PMAxx.
These are programmed appropriately at the time of manufacture (see the relevant
Power Module Installation Manual).
The DX Remote can access as many as five drive programs, which are treated
differently in a servo steered DX System. The settings contained in these programs
must be selected with reference to this SLM Installation Manual. In addition, three
lighting parameters must be set in the DX Remote program if lighting functions are
required.
7.1.1
Adding an SLM to the DX System
Any DX Remote can be used to control either conventional or servo steered DX
Systems. When changing to a servo steered system, select a servo wheelchair
template and modify it to suit the requirements of the wheelchair type.
Similarly, to change a DX Remote from a servo to a conventional application, select
a conventional wheelchair program to edit as required and download to the DX
Remote.
