Drive Program
The Drive Program – as the name suggests – defines the driving performance
of the powerchair, including:
•
Setting maximum forward, reverse and turn speeds
•
Setting forward, reverse and turn acceleration and deceleration
rates
•
Define the chair response to joystick movements and its ability
to negotiate different driving surfaces
•
Define the amount of ‘Traction’ (or assistance SHARK will
provide) when a Stability Profile with ‘Chair Tamer’ is selected
The powerchair manufacturer defines three default Drive Programs that are
stored in the SHARK Power Module. The Dealer selects the most appropriate
Drive Program and then customizes it for each user.
