Omeo Parts and Subsystems (cont.)
Redundancy / Safety
Omeo’s redundancy and safety features set
it apart from any other self-balancing device.
In-built redundancies provide for a backup to
take over from a particular part in the unlikely
event of failure, minimising the possibility of
an accident.
Omeo has multiple redundancy subsystems:
•
Controller Boards
•
Motors
•
Batteries
•
The Balance Sensor Assembly.
Active Seat Control and Joystick
The Active Seat Control (ASC) is a dynamic system
that allows you to pivot the seat using your
weight on all lateral axes. This in turn controls the
switching for drive, steering and braking.
The ASC also ensures your sitting position is
maintained level on slopes so that the device can
be controlled as if it was on a flat surface.
The Joystick working in conjunction with
the ASC.
for details on Seat control
and Joystick control settings) the steering control
is transferred to the Joystick. The side-to-side
movement of the ASC is locked and inoperable.
The drive and braking system of the Omeo is still
controlled by the forward and back movement of
the seat and not the Joystick.
CAUTION
The Joystick does not provide any forward
drive or braking. The steering only is controlled
by the Joystick.
Standard and Off-Road Wheel
and Tyre Kits
Your Omeo uses either the Standard Kit or the
Off-Road Kit for more extreme terrain.
WARNING
Do not use the Omeo without Wheel Guards
(Fenders) at any time. Using the Omeo without
Wheel Guards / Fenders could result in injury or
damage to the device or rider.
NOTICE
Use of non-approved wheels and tyres may void
the Omeo Worldwide Limited Warranty.
NOTICE
Always run and maintain both the Standard and
All-Terrain Tyres with the proper tyre inflation
as noted in Table 1 (Pg. 18).
