Joystick Operation (Driving And Braking); Operating Console Lock - Vermeiren LiNX 200 Manuel D'utilisation

4.4 Joystick operation (driving and braking)

Operating the joystick in a specific direction will move the electric
wheelchair in that direction. The speed of movement depends on the
displacement of the joystick. If the joystick is pushed/pulled to
maximum displacement, the speed will be maximal (within the selected
drive mode).
By moving the joystick to its central position (neutral) during driving,
the brakes will start working until the wheelchair stops:
 For gradual braking, move the joystick slowly
 For a quick stop, release the joystick; the wheelchair will stop as
quickly as possible.
Make sure that the joystick is in neutral (central) position when pressing the on/off
button, otherwise the electronics will be locked.
After switching the operating console ON by the ON/OFF button, the joystick has to
stay in the central position for at least five seconds. The console has been
programmed this way for technical and safety reasons. If the joystick and ON/OFF
button are activated at the same time, the steering unit is locked and will only unlock
after switching completely OFF.
Make sure that the free-wheel lever is in braking position BEFORE switching the
wheelchair ON. Electromagnetic brakes do NOT function if the wheelchair is in free-
wheel mode. This is indicated on the operating console. Driving is not possible.

4.5 Operating console lock

The lock function is primarily used to prevent unauthorized use of the wheelchair, but it
can also help prevent unintentional use of the controls when the system is not used for
any length of time. When the system is locked, the system is powered down and the user
controls are not responsive. If the power button is pressed when the system is locked, the
locked status is displayed to the user by the battery gauge.
