Each of the speedometer's 6 large LEDs
typically represent 0%, 20%, 40%, 60%, 80%
and 100% of the chair's absolute maximum top
speed.
REMD supports 2 modes of top speed
adjustment - "5 Speed" and "VSP" modes.
In the "5 Speed" mode pressing the
Increase Speed and Decrease Speed buttons
steps between on of the 5 top speeds 20% to
100%.
In the "VSP" mode a quick single press
of the Increase Speed and Decrease Speed
buttons also steps between one of the 5 speeds
20% to 100%. However, pressing and holding
the Increase Speed (Decrease Speed) Button
ramps the top Speed up (down) in fi ne steps,
allowing practically any top speed to be selected. This can be particularly useful for matching
the chair speed to the walking speed of an accompanying pedestrian.
VSP is an extremely powerful feature, allowing both fast stepping between fi xed top speeds
by using quick presses or fi ner control using long presses. The VSP feature can be enabled or
disabled. Users can toggle between the "VSP" and "5 Speed" Modes by holding down both the
Increase Speed and Decrease Speed Buttons for approximately 2 seconds while the unit is pow-
ered up. The control unit will beep when the mode has been changed.
2.1. USING THE SPEEDOMETER
The Speedometer is used to gauge the
relative speed of the chair in comparison to the maximum speed possible. The right-most LED
indicates current maximum speed, which can be adjusted using
the Increase (Decrease) Speed button. Refer to Adjusting the
Driving Speed for further details. Using the joystick, as the speed
of the chair increases, the LED's will fi ll in until the maximum
speed (as displayed) is reached.
Top Speed 1
Typically 20% but programmable using the
Lowest Forward Speed parameter.
Top Speed 5
Typically 100% but programmable using the
Maximum Forward Speed parameter.
