SECTION 2—EMI INFORMATION  
SECTION 2—EMI INFORMATION  
WARNING  
CAUTION: IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT YOU READ THIS INFORMATION  
REGARDING THE POSSIBLE EFFECTS OF ELECTROMAGNETIC  
INTERFERENCE ON YOUR POWERED WHEELCHAIR.  
Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) From Radio Wave Sources  
Powered wheelchairs and motorized scooters (in this text, both will be referred to  
as powered wheelchairs) may be susceptible to electromagnetic interference (EMI),  
which is interfering electromagnetic energy (EM) emitted from sources such as  
radio stations, TV stations, amateur radio (HAM) transmitters, two way radios, and  
cellular phones. The interference (from radio wave sources) can cause the powered  
wheelchair to release its brakes, move by itself, or move in unintended directions. It  
can also permanently damage the powered wheelchair's control system. The  
intensity of the interfering EM energy can be measured in volts per meter (V/m).  
Each powered wheelchair can resist EMI up to a certain intensity. This is called its  
"immunity level." The higher the immunity level, the greater the protection. At this  
time, current technology is capable of achieving at least a 20 V/m immunity level,  
which would provide useful protection from the more common sources of radiated  
EMI.  
There are a number of sources of relatively intense electromagnetic fields in the  
everyday environment. Some of these sources are obvious and easy to avoid.  
Others are not apparent and exposure is unavoidable. However, we believe that by  
following the warnings listed below, your risk to EMI will be minimized.  
The sources of radiated EMI can be broadly classified into three types:  
1) Hand-held Portable transceivers (transmitters-receivers with the antenna  
mounted directly on the transmitting unit. Examples include: citizens band (CB)  
radios, "walkie talkie", security, fire and police transceivers, cellular telephones,  
and other personal communication devices).  
NOTE: Some cellular telephones and similar devices transmit signals while they are ON,  
even when not being used.  
2) Medium-range mobile transceivers, such as those used in police cars, fire trucks,  
ambulances and taxis. These usually have the antenna mounted on the outside of  
the vehicle; and  
3) Long-range transmitters and transceivers, such as commercial broadcast  
transmitters (radio and TV broadcast antenna towers) and amateur (HAM)  
radios.  
NOTE: Other types of hand-held devices, such as cordless phones, laptop computers,  
AM/FM radios, TV sets, CD players, cassette players, and small appliances, such as elec-  
tric shavers and hair dryers, so far as we know, are not likely to cause EMI problems to  
your powered wheelchair.

SECTION 2—EMI INFORMATION  
WARNING  
Powered Wheelchair Electromagnetic Interference (EMI)  
Because EM energy rapidly becomes more intense as one moves closer to the  
transmitting antenna (source), the EM fields from hand-held radio wave sources  
(transceivers) are of special concern. It is possible to unintentionally bring high  
levels of EM energy very close to the powered wheelchair's control system while  
using these devices. This can affect powered wheelchair movement and braking.  
Therefore, the warnings listed below are recommended to prevent possible  
interference with the control system of the powered wheelchair.  
Electromagnetic interference (EMI) from sources such as radio and TV stations,  
amateur radio (HAM) transmitters, two-way radios, and cellular phones can affect  
powered wheelchairs and motorized scooters.  
FOLLOWING THE WARNINGS LISTED BELOW SHOULD REDUCE THE  
CHANCE OF UNINTENDED BRAKE RELEASE OR POWERED WHEELCHAIR  
MOVEMENT WHICH COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY.  
1) Do not operate hand-held transceivers (transmitters receivers), such as citizens  
band (CB) radios, or turn ON personal communication devices, such as cellular  
phones, while the powered wheelchair is turned ON;  
2) Be aware of nearby transmitters, such as radio or TV stations, and try to avoid  
coming close to them;  
3) If unintended movement or brake release occurs, turn the powered wheelchair  
OFF as soon as it is safe;  
4) Be aware that adding accessories or components, or modifying the powered  
wheelchair, may make it more susceptible to EMI (NOTE: There is no easy way  
to evaluate their effect on the overall immunity of the powered wheelchair); and  
5) Report all incidents of unintended movement or brake release to the powered  
wheelchair manufacturer, and note whether there is a source of EMI nearby.  
Important Information  
1) 20 volts per meter (V/m) is a generally achievable and useful immunity level  
against EMI (as of May 1994) (the higher the level, the greater the protection).  
2) This device has been tested to a radiated immunity level of 20 volts per meter.  
3) The immunity level of the product is unknown.  
Modification of any kind to the electronics of this wheelchair as manufactured by  
Invacare may adversely affect the EMI immunity levels.

SECTION 5—PERFORMANCE ADJUSTMENTS  
Performance Menu Description  
The performance adjustment menu items are listed below with a description of each  
function.  
MENU ITEM  
DESCRIPTION  
FORWARD SPEED  
Sets the maximum forward speed. The fastest speed setting is 100%. Use the  
and  
keys to change the value.  
TURNING SPEED  
Sets the TURNING SPEED as a percentage of the maximum forward speed. The  
turning speed is independent of the forward speed setting so that the turning  
speed can be greater than the forward speed. The fastest turning speed setting  
is 60%. Use the  
and  
keys to change the value.  
ACCELERATION - FWD  
ACCELERATION - REV  
ACCELERATION - FWD sets how quickly the controller will accelerate when  
the joystick is moved forward from neutral.  
ACCELERATION - REV sets how quickly the controller will accelerate when  
the joystick is moved to the rear from neutral.  
TURN  
ACCELERATION  
TURN ACCELERATION sets how quickly the controller will accelerate when  
the joystick is moved to the left or right from neutral.  
TURN  
DECELERATION  
TURN DECELERATION sets how quickly the controller will decelerate when  
the joystick is moved to the left or right from neutral.  
BRAKING FORWARD  
BRAKING REVERSE  
REVERSE SPEED  
BRAKING FORWARD sets how quickly the controller will decelerate when the  
joystick is moved toward neutral from a forward position.  
BRAKING REVERSE sets how quickly the controller will decelerate when the  
joystick is moved toward neutral from a reverse position.  
The maximum speed the controller will drive with the joystick full reverse and  
the speed pot fully clockwise.  
TREMOR DAMPENING  
As the wheelchair approaches a required speed (determined by joystick  
position) acceleration/deceleration will reduce. A higher value will soften the  
transition from acceleration/deceleration to that speed.  
TORQUE  
This parameter allows the controller to compensate appropriately for adverse  
driving conditions, for example when going over curbs and ramps. It is the  
parameter that optimizes the driving performance of the controller to the  
motors being used by setting a specific motor resistance.  
The controller will not control the wheelchair correctly unless this is carefully  
set.

PROGRAMMER  
Overview  
NOTE: For this procedure, refer to FIGURE 6.1.  
The Remote Programmer is the information center of the control module. Through simple  
key sequences, the Remote Programmer allows modification of the performance  
characteristics, gives diagnostics information for troubleshooting and permits calibration  
of the control module.  
NOTE: The joystick power switch must be on for the programmer to operate. If the programmer  
displays “Communication Error”, disconnect the programmer and reconnect it with the joystick  
turned on.

SECTION 6—REMOTE PROGRAMMER  
Remote Programmer Terminology  
Function  
A function is a performance characteristic which can be adjusted or modified to improve  
the operation of the wheelchair for a particular control need. Two examples are:  
The forward speed function may be adjusted to a higher or lower speed the same way as  
you would adjust a trimpot in other controls.  
Stand-by Mode Function may be turned ON or OFF the same as a switch would be used.  
All functions are listed in a menu.  
Value  
Each function has a value. It is the degree or amount of the function which is used to  
influence the overall wheelchair performance. Most values are numerical or in  
percentages, for instance - high speed may be set to 75% of the wheelchair's maximum.  
For others, the value is either ON or OFF, for example - Stand-by Mode. Changing a value  
is called Adjustment.  
Program (Preset Programs with Standard Value Settings)  
The standard programs are fixed function values which are used as an initial set up point  
from which individualization of the wheelchair performance can begin. Standard values  
Temporary Memory  
This is the location where function values may be altered to suit individual needs by using  
the remote programmer. Unless saved, changes to the values in the temporary memory  
will be erased when the wheelchair power is turned off. Refer to User Memory Values  
below.  
User Memory Values  
User memory is the location where the individualized function values are permanently  
stored. Each time the power switch is turned on, these values are copied to the temporary  
memory and are used to control the wheelchair performance. The user memory values  
can only be changed through the Remote Programmer by first modifying the temporary  
memory values and then by saving them in the user memory where they become the user  
program. The Remote Programmer is activated by pressing the POWER key when the  
wheelchair is in neutral. The wheelchair cannot be driven when the LCD display is  
illuminated. The display will automatically turn itself OFF after 45 seconds if no keys are  
pressed. It can also be turned OFF by pressing the POWER key.

WARNING  
DO NOT mismatch a program with the wheelchair type (i.e. selecting a rear wheel  
drive program for a center wheel drive wheelchair or vice versa). Confirm that the  
settings and program match the wheelchair before selecting or saving. Otherwise,  
unintended and unsafe joystick control of the wheelchair will occur, possibly result-  
ing in serious bodily injury.  
The program settings are available as a reference point for initial set-up of the wheelchair,  
for final user setting or whenever major changes have been made in the performance and  
a known starting point needs to be reestablished. Confirm that the settings and program  
match the wheelchair before selecting or saving.  
Three programs are available.  
1. Select PROGRAMS from the main menu to display the standard value menu.  
2. Press

Description of Other Functions  
Select OTHER from the main menu to display Motor Balance, Joystick Throw, Fault Log,  
and Usage Statistics. Use the  
and  
keys to select the function desired. The SELECT  
key will display the current value and permit modifications. Always press SAVE after  
changes are made.  
NOTE: At any point, press the MENU key to return to the previous screen.  
MENU ITEM  
DESCRIPTION  
MOTOR BALANCE  
Motor balance corrects for veer when going straight on level ground. To correct  
for a veer to the right, move the bar graph indicator to the right using the  
key.  
To correct for veer to the left, move the bar graph indicator to the left using the  
key.  
JOYSTICK THROW  
Joystick throw calibration is used to calibrate the neutral position and the full speed  
travel of the proportional joystick. The control module stores the maximum dis-  
placement of the joystick and later, during driving, uses the values to generate a full  
speed command whenever that displacement is reached. Exceeding this displace-  
ment does not product further increase in speed. The result of this method of cali-  
bration is a customized driving template.  
FAULT LOG  
The Fault Log shows the fault codes that have been detected by the diagnostic sys-  
tem since the control was built in the factory. The fault codes correspond to the  
Diagnostics Codes given in the next section. The Fault Log can be used by the ser-  
vice technician to uncover the cause of intermittent faults that are not evident when  
the wheelchair is being serviced.  
NOTE: It is normal to have some codes in the Fault Log, even in a new wheelchair, because  
they are generated during factory testing and calibration.  
USAGE STATISTICS  
The usage statistics screen displays how long the wheelchair has been on in hours:  
minutes, the total number of times the wheelchair has been powered up and how  
many times the wheelchair has been driven.

SECTION 9—DIAGNOSTIC CODES  
SECTION 9—DIAGNOSTIC CODES  
What Are Diagnostics Codes?  
The joystick information gauge and the Remote Programmer give indications of the type  
of fault or error detected by the control module. When a fault is detected, the wheelchair  
will stop and not drive. All of the lights on the information gauge will begin to flash (SPJ  
and CSPJ joysticks) or the service indicator light will flash (SPJ+ and SPJ+ w/ACC  
joystick). The number of flashes indicates the nature of an abnormal condition. An error  
code and a quick description of the fault will begin to scroll across the Remote  
Programmer display. If multiple faults are found, only the first fault encountered by the  
control module program will be displayed. Refer to the Power Wheelchair Service  
Manual for detailed troubleshooting and repair instructions. A table of the diagnostics  
codes and their causes follows.  
*NOTE: The fault log displays a four digit number. The first two digits are the diagnostic code and  
the remaining two digits are the sub code.

Drive Control Input (DCI)  
NOTE: Wheelchairs equipped with DCI have seating options (i.e. elevate and tilt).  
The DCI allows the wheelchair mode to depend on the resistance of the DCI “Loop”:  
• Inhibit - prevents the wheelchair from driving, typically when the wheelchair is being  
charged, or when the seat is tilted.  
• Slow - limits the drive speed to a predetermined value, typically when the seat is  
raised.  
To determine the mode, an appropriate resistance must be placed across the DCI input  
pin (I) and the DCI Battery Negative (-) pin. Depending on the resistance value, the  
controller will inhibit, slow, and/or swivel driving. Resistors used must be 5% tolerance  
resistors.
