JOYSTICK
The joystick allows the attendant to control the chair’s speed and direction of
travel when the attendant module is in charge; see section below on precedence
relationship between the handcontrol and the attendant module.
KEYPAD
The keypad has two buttons: an On/Off button and a Drive/Actuator Mode
button.
The Mode button is multi-functional. When the system powers up it will
enter Drive mode, and the Mode LED will be lit green or amber (depending on
which Drive mode was last active). Drive speed is limited by Attendant Speed
1 or 2 (see Speed Mode menu, page 25). A short press on the Mode button
toggles between Attendant Speed Modes 1 and 2.
