For example, if the connection between the control unit and seat motor is faulty, this error will only be indicated if
the user attempts to activate the motor. However, the driving function is still available.
Error
An error affects one or several functions of the power wheelchair. The power wheelchair and its functions are not
fully operational until the fault is resolved.
Structure of an error message
The control unit display shows both errors in the control system itself as well as errors in electrical components of
the power wheelchair or errors in the cabling. The error message contains the following information:
•
Affected module – e.g. JSM = joystick module (control panel); PM = power module (control unit)
• Error code (4 characters)
• Abbreviated error description
7.4.2 Procedure for warnings and error messages
• If a warning or error message appears, the power wheelchair can often no longer be driven. In this case, the
error message must be noted, the control unit switched off and the qualified personnel informed of the error
message immediately.
• If the error is related to a component which is not currently being used (e.g. to an actuator for adjusting the
seat function), the driving function of the power wheelchair is still theoretically usable. An error message simply
appears at regular intervals.
• Nonetheless, the control unit
must
be switched off for several minutes in this case. If the error message contin­
ues to appear after switching on the control unit, the error message
must
be noted, the control unit switched
off again and the qualified personnel informed of the error message immediately.
