VII. OPERATION
REMOTE PLUS CONTROLLER
The electronic controller is what you use to operate your power chair. It takes the battery voltage and sends it to
the appropriate system. The electronic controller also enables you to monitor battery charge, electronic controller
functions, and the condition of your electrical system. Also, it may be used to control some optional systems such
as power elevating seats and lights.
The Remote Plus is a modular electronic control system. The electronics necessary to operate the power chair are
contained in several modules located on different parts of your power chair.
The controller supplied with your power chair has been pre-programmed to meet your needs. The program is set
using either a personal computer with software provided by the controller manufacturer or with a hand-held
programmer, also provided by the controller manufacturer.
WARNING! The controller program can affect speed, acceleration, deceleration, and
braking. If it is programmed incorrectly or outside of the safe limits as determined by your
healthcare professional, it can create a dangerous situation. Only the power chair
manufacturer, an authorized representative of the manufacturer, or a trained service
technician should program the controller.
The Remote Plus system consists of the fol-
lowing components:
! master remote
! communications cable(s)
! power module
! motor wiring harnesses
! battery wiring harnesses
! actuator lighting module (for optional
equipment)
The master remote is located typically on the
end of an armrest. The other components
are located inside the power base.
Remote Plus Master Remote
The Remote Plus master remote consists of the following (see figure 28):
1. joystick
2. keypad
3. controller communications cable
4. off-board charger/programming socket
Joystick
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.
