OPERATING THE REMOTE PLUS CONTROLLER
The Remote Plus Controller is used to operate your power chair and all of its
components.
The Remote Plus controller consists of (see figure 2):
1. joystick
2. keypad
3. controller communications connector
4. 3-pin off-board charger/programming socket
5. power module
6. intermediate harness with charger connection
Joystick Control
The joystick controls the direction and speed of your power chair. When you
move the joystick from the neutral (center) position, the electromagnetic brakes
release and allow your power chair to move. The farther you push the joystick
from its neutral position, the faster your power chair moves. When you release the
joystick and allow it to return to the neutral position, you engage the electromag-
netic brakes. This causes your power chair to decelerate and come to a complete
stop.
Keypad
The keypad is located directly in front of the joystick. It contains keys that you will
use to control your power chair. See figures 3 and 4.
On/Off Key
The on/off key turns the system on and off.
WARNING! Unless faced with an emergency situation, do
not use the on/off key to stop the chair. This will cause the
power chair to stop abruptly.
WARNING! Always turn the power off when you are stationary
to prevent unexpected movement.
