Indicates that the wheelchair is locked. To unlock the wheelchair,
deflect the joystick forwards until the control system chirps. Then deflect the joystick in reverse until
the control system chirps. Release the joystick, there will be a long beep. The wheelchair is now unlocked.
To lock the wheelchair, while the control system is switched on, depress and hold the on/off button.
After 1 second, the control system will chirp. Now release the on/off button, deflect the joystick forwards
until the control system chirps, and deflect the joystick in reverse until the control system chirps. Release
the joystick, there will be a long beep. The wheelchair is now locked.
This indicates that the chair is charging . The chair will be ready to drive as soon as the charger is unplugged.
This indicates that all is well.
The control system is functioning correctly, but you should charge the battery as soon as possible. At 22 V, the red
light starts to blink. Each bar represents a .5V value. The controller requires 18V to start and a minimum of 16V to
work once started
Indicates the wheelchair batteries are being charged with the offboard charger. You will not be able to drive the
wheelchair until the charger is disconnected and you have reset the control system by switching off the
power and then powering up again.
The control system has "gone to sleep" because the wheelchair has not been driven for a period of time.
The time period depends on the programming of the system. To re-start, reset the system by switching
off the power and then powering up again.
Make sure the Joystick is completely released (Joystick should be centered and/or nothing is pushing the gimbale
out of center). The control system safety circuits have been activated and the control system has been prevented
from moving the wheelchair. This indicates a system trip, i.e. the VR2 has detected a problem somewhere in the
wheelchair's electrical system. Please refer to Section 3 (VR2 Controller Diagnostics).
