2. Operation
2.1 Introduction
The CJA R-net is a joystick module that can directly be connected to the R-net control
system of
PG Drives Technology
(PDGT). So we refer to the R-net Control System
Technical Manual – SK77981 – from PGDT.
The relevant contents of this chapter should be included in the wheelchair operating guide.
Further copies are available from Permobil Europe BV in either written or disk (Adobe
PDF) format. Copies of the SK77981 of PGDT are available from PGDT in either written
or disk (Adobe PDF) format. Copies of these 2 documents should not be made without the
expressed permission of Permobil Europe BV or PGDT.
The operation of the R-net varies dependent on programming. This chapter covers the
special types of operation for the CJA R-net. For a complete description of the system we
refer again to the SK77981 of PGDT. It is the responsibility of the wheelchair manufacturer
or local dealer to ensure that only the relevant sections of this chapter are included in the
wheelchair’s operating manual.
Please read this chapter carefully - it will help you to keep your wheelchair reliable and
safe.
2.2 General
An R-net control system comprises a minimum of two modules - Joystick Module and
Power Module. Because of the modular design, the depth of the control system can be
greatly increased. The following diagram shows the basic set-up.
2.2.1 Handling
Avoid knocking your control system and especially the joystick. Be careful not to strike
obstacles with the control system or joystick when you drive. Never drop the control
system.
When transporting your wheelchair, make sure that the control system is well protected.
Avoid damage to cables.
