12 Selecting the positioning angle
System with sensors:
The positioning angle is selected by pressing and holding the
“Angle” key and activating the Plus or Minus selection key. The
positioning angle set appears in the angle and time display
window. The setting range is 5 - 30° and can be adjusted in 1°
increments.
The positioning angle is the same for each side (right or left).
Depending on local conditions, there may be discrepancies
between the positioning angle selected and the angle achieved.
The angle displayed is the angle on the underside of the soft
orthopaedic mattress in the area of the shoulders of the person
receiving care.
It is only possible to select another angle for each positioning side
by using the freely programmable programme (P5).
For more details, refer to the “Freely programmable programme”
section.
System without sensors:
In this case the angle is controlled via the filling time.
The filling time can be set to between 1 and 7 minutes. Here 1
minute corresponds to approx. 5°, which means that 6 minutes
equals about 30°.
This is adjusted by pressing and holding the Angle key while
simultaneously activating the Plus or Minus key.
Note: when starting the system you should check that there is no
air in the air chamber system. If there is any air remaining in the
chamber system, this can be emptied by holding down the Stop
key.
