4.3.8 –Function informations
To provide the user with additional function-specific information, the area at the bottom left of the function map may
display indicators related to :
Gyro status / Latched driving status / Ignore drive lockout
- Gyro status
Gyro enable
The gyro status indicates whether the gyro module is on or off for the current
function. No indicator is displayed if a gyro is not installed or connected.
Gyro disable
Latched driving status
If the function operates in a locked driving mode, the locked driving status indicator
reminds the user which type of locked driving has been selected. No indicator is
displayed if the locked pipe is not activated for the selected function.
See Table 15 for all indicators.
Ignore deive lockout
Si la conduite fonctionne avec la fonction ’’Drive LockOut ignored’’ activée,
l'indicateur Ignorer le verrouillage du lecteur s'affiche pour rappeler à l'utilisateur
qu'un verrouillage du lecteur ne se produit pas dans cette fonction.
4.4 – STEERING
Steering control - seat
For seating functions, the direction of the seat movement (extension/retraction) depends on the configuration of the
input control. See the LiNX Systems Installation Manual for details.
Speed Control – proportional mode
In proportional mode, the speed of the drive or seat function is proportional to the deviation of the joystick, so the farther
the joystick is from the neutral position, the faster the training or sitting function moves.
Speed Control – discrete mode
In discrete mode, the speed of the drive or seat function is fixed and is activated when the joystick is deflected beyond
a configurable threshold - see Joystick Switch Threshold in the LiNX system installation manual.
Stopping
In general, to stop driving or to stop a seating movement, bring the joystick back to the neutral position or release the
joystick and it will automatically return to the neutral position. However, this operation does not work for locked driving
modes. For a locked pipe, refer to the LiNX Systems Installation Manual.
Warning
When the joystick is tilted, the size of the space between the joystick skirt and the upper body of the module
decreases. This can be a risk of pinching. The user must release the joystick if a part of the body is pinched
.
Figure 55 : joystick
The joystick controls the direction and speed of the driving and seating functions (See Figure 55). It
can be configured to operate in proportional or discrete mode.
Steering control - driving
By default, when the joystick is deviated from the neutral position, the wheelchair moves in the same
direction as the joystick. However, this default behavior can be changed by configuring the joystick
rotation angle, swapping the joystick axes, or reassigning the joystick quadrants. See the LiNX
Systems Installation Manual for details.
