Getting to know your new LiNX remote module / Joystick

The new 

MyLiNX

 system and application provides professionals and end users an unparalleled insight 

into the health and performance of their chairs.

MyLiNX functionality is incorporated into the LiNX powerchair system and collects data about the powerchair, 

then transmits it, via Bluetooth wireless technology, to the MyLiNX App on a user’s smart phone. 

The app displays this data for the user to view and transfers it wirelessly, over a cellular or WiFi network, to a 

data warehouse located within the cloud. The information about specific powerchairs is then made available to 

subscribed support organizations through the MyLiNX website.

Clarity of Information 

Tired of looking at a flashing red light and thinking “what does that actually mean”?

The MyLiNX App eliminates the guess work from things such as remaining battery life and fault codes (e.g. 

brake disengaged).

The app will provide a clearer understanding of a powerchair’s state of health and also give a quick, simple 

mechanism for communicating issues with the chair’s dealer or supplier.

The MyLiNX App provides on demand advice - linked to diagnostics from your chair - to help better maintain 

your powerchair, increasing performance and minimizing both risk and servicing needs.

Quicker, Easier support

The MyLiNX App can send fault data directly to support teams, removing the need for a technician to schedule 

a home visit, or for a user to send their chair to a service center to diagnose faults.

Hopefully, our powerchairs will never malfunction, but in the event one does, with the MyLiNX App users can 

eliminate some of the stress typically associated with getting their chair fixed.
