Operating the Europa Controller
The Europa Controller is used to operate your power chair and all of its components. See figure 2.
The Europa controller consists of:
1. joystick
2. keypad
3. controller communications connector
4. 3-pin off-board charger socket
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 electromagnetic 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 figure 3.
On/Off Key
The on/off key turns the system on and off.
WARNING! When faced wih an emergency stop situation, release the joystick, them press on/
off to stop the power chair. Use caution. Be advised that pressing the on/off button may cause
the power chair to stop abruptly.
WARNING! Always turn the power off when you are stationary to prevent unexpected movement.
NOTE: If the joystick is not in the neutral (center) position when you turn on the power, you may
cause a fault in the system. See “Out Of Neutral At Power Up.”
