CHAPTER 2 - INSTALLATION

DOCUMENTATION
1.1
R-NET OPERATION
Study Chapter 1. It is important that the operation information in Chapter 1 is supplied with the wheelchair, either as part of the
wheelchair user handbook or as a separate document.
This Chapter sets out the installation conditions that must be complied with in order to meet the safety requirements of TÜV
(Germany), ISO7176-14 and EN12184.
1.2
PROGRAM SETTINGS
The R-net control system is supplied with preset settings that are chosen with the wheelchair manufacturer to ensure safe
operation and compliance with relevant legal requirements, over the whole of the operating r ange of the wheelchair.
WARNING:
It is the manufacturer’s responsibility to program the control system to suit the vehicle model and ensure safe operation in
compliance with relevant legal requirements over the whole of the operating range. Curtiss-Wright accepts no liability for
losses of any kind due to failure to, or incorrect programming of the R-net Control System. Refer to Chapter 3 for
programming details.
The wheelchair must stop within the maximum distance specified for the country in which the wheelchair will be used. TÜV
Product Service (Germany) specify the distance to be as stated in EN12184.
If users with particular disabilities need very low braking rates and this results in a longer stopping distance, the maximum
speed must be re-programmed so that the stopping distance requirement is satisfied.
State in the wheelchair user handbook that it is the responsibility of the person programming the control system to make sure
that the stopping distance requirement is satisfied. If the braking rate is low, the forward and reverse maximum speed settings
may need to be re-programmed. To assist the person in this task, include a graph in the wheelchair user handbook showing the
relationship between the maximum forward/reverse speed settings and the forward/reverse braking rate which is required to
ensure the correct stopping distance.
It may be possible to program settings which compromise the stability of the wheelchair. Perform suitable tests to establish
which programming restrictions are needed to prevent instability. State any programming restrictions in the wheelchair user
handbook.
State in the wheelchair user handbook that it is the responsibility of the person programming the control system to make sure
that the settings are safe and to note any programming changes that they make.
WARNING:
Programming should only be conducted by healthcare professionals with in-depth knowledge of Curtiss-Wright electronic
control systems. Incorrect programming could result in an unsafe setup of a wheelchair for t he user. Curtiss-Wright accepts
no liability for losses of any kind if the programming of the control system is altered from factory pre -set values. Curtiss-
