The power wheelchair can be equipped with a separate LCD monitor with infrared and Bluetooth

The LCD monitor displays the current statuses of all power functions and electrical components, as well as
faults and malfunctions.
•
The LCD monitor allows devices with infrared control to be controlled with the control panel joystick. First the
devices are programmed into the control unit using a learning mode:

–
Light switches or dimmers
–
Switches to operate blinds
–

The LCD monitor is the interface to the connected special controls. The input devices of the special controls
(e.g. sip-and-puff control, chin control) can also be used for infrared functions. Detailed information can be
found in the "Special Controls" instructions for use, article number 647G636=*.
