Anleitung Zusammenfassung
When the joystick is at rest, it is in the neutral (center) position, and the chair is stationary. In order to drive the chair, the joystick must be taken out of neutral. Moving the joystick in any direction will switch the chair from neutral to drive, and the chair will move in the direction indicated by joystick position. The farther away from the neutral position the joystick is, the faster the chair will move in that direction. To stop chair movement, simply release the joystick or move it back to the neutral position. The chair’s electromagnetic brakes will engage after the chair has come to a controlled stop. GC2 Controller Basic Operation Instructions BATTERY CONDITION METER ON/OFF KEY HORN KEY SPEED DIAL JOYSTICK Figure 3. Control Panel Control Panel The control panel is located directly in front of the joystick. It contains keys and a dial 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! Unless faced with an emergency situation, do not use the on/off key to stop the chair. This will cause the power chair to stop abruptly. WARNING! Always turn the power off when you are stationary to prevent unexpected movement. Horn Key The horn key activates a warning horn. Speed Dial The GC2 controller provides a speed dial to control the speed of the power chair. See figure 3. GC2 Controller Basic Operation Instructions To change the speed: 1. Push the on/off key to power on the chair and the controller. 2. To increase your speed, turn the speed dial clockwise. 3. To decrease your speed, turn the speed dial counterclockwise. NOTE: We recommend that the first few times you operate your powerchair, you set the speed to the slowest setting until you become familiar with your new power chair. Battery Condition Meter The battery condition meter consists of five LEDs arranged in an arc over the on/off and horn keys. See figure 1. When functioning as the battery condition meter, this indicates the status of the electrical system using LED codes. For example, as the battery voltage drops, the number of LEDs reduces from right to left. When the battery capacity drops to 10% or below, the left red LED will flash. Battery condition meter codes are as follows: • Left Red LED Flashing Slowly or Steady: Battery charge is low; charge the batteries as soon as possible. • Red and Yellow LEDs Flashing: Battery charge is low; charge the batteries overnight. • LEDs Scroll From Left to Right: The controller is in inhibit or charging mode. • LEDs Ripple Side-to-Side Twice, then All LEDs Flash Quickly: The joystick was not in the center position when the power was switched on, or the controller system detected a fault; refer to “Fault Codes.” NOTE: Your GC2 controller may be equipped with a battery charge reminder feature. This feature will be activated if your power chair isturned off AND it has been driven for 8 hours without being charged. Ifequipped, the red LED on the battery condition meter will flash four (4) times in 0.5-second intervals until the batteries are charged. GC2 Controller Basic Operation Instructions CONTROLLER COMMUNICATION CONNECTOR The controller communications connector provides the GC2 with a connection to the power module. MANDATORY! Prevent controller harness damage! Avoid routing the controller harness on the outside of the armrest pad. Route the harness under the armrest or toward the inside of the armrest pad. Use correct tie-down points for the controller harness to prevent the harness from getting caught in the drive tires, pinched in the seat frame, or damaged when passing through doorways. LOCK MODE The controller is equipped with a feature that enables you to “lockout” unauthorized users. To lock the controller: 1. While the power is on, press and hold the on/off key until it beeps (approximately 1 second). 2. Release the on/off key. 3. Move the joystick to the full forward position until it beeps. 4. Move the joystick to the full rearward position until it beeps. 5. Release the joystick. There will be one long beep. The controller system is now locked. NOTE: The battery condition meter will be stepping up from left to right. The sequence will continue to step up for two full cycles and then turn off. To unlock the controller: 1. Press the on/off key to turn on the controller. The battery condition meter will ripple the “locked” sequence. 2. Move the joystick to the full forward position until it beeps. 3. Move the joystick to the full rearward position until it beeps. 4. Release the joystick. There will be one long beep. The controller system is now unlocked. GC2 Controller Basic Operation Instructions SLEEP MODE Your GC2 Controller has a sleep mode feature. Sleep mode is a built-in circuit that automatically shuts off the main power if the joystick is not moved in any direction for a period of time predetermined by the controller progra...
