12.0  R-net Control System

12.1 R-net controller

A controller will usually have three basic functions:

• Driving and steering a wheelchair 

• Operating electrical seat adjustments

• Charging the wheelchairs batteries 

There are many different control systems for wheelchairs 

on the market. If the controller on your wheelchair does not 

resemble the one in Fig. 12.1, contact your dealer. 

R-net by PG Drives Technologies is a collective name for the 

entire control system of the wheelchair. The wheelchair is 

operated by means of a controller. Main components of the 

controller can be found in chapter 12.3.

12.2 R-net attendant steering

It is possible to connect an extra controller on the back (Fig. 

12.2). This so the attendant can control the wheelchair and 

operate electrical options.

12.3 Gyro Module

If your Q100R-Q200R is fitted with the R-net control system, a 

Gyro Module with the latest GYRO module technology can be 

fitted. 

Gyro technology adds an extra dimension to controlling a 

wheelchair, by maintaining the desired drive direction 

irrespective of the external forces acting upon the wheelchair. 

GYRO benefits are: 

• Superior drive control.

• Eliminates spin-out.

• Eliminates fish-tailing.

• Enhances control on cambers.

• Straight line driving over obstacles.

• Enhances drive profiles when switched speciality controls, 

(such as head arrays), are used.

 WARNING!

• The Gyro CANNOT be used on moving vehicles, such as 

buses, trains or boats. When travelling on moving vehicles 

the 

GYRO MUST BE DISABLED

 by selecting drive profile 1 

on your controller.

• DO NOT remove the GYRO from your product. If the GYRO is 

disconnected the powerchair maximum speed will be limited 

by 50%.
