SECTION 5-WHEELCHAIR OPERATION Joystick Proportional drive control located at the front of the control provides smooth control of speed and direction. Battery Gauge Display (BGD) Located at the rear of the control provides information on the remaining charge in the batteries. At full charge, the two left segments and the farthest right segment of the bar graph are lit. As the battery becomes discharged, the farthest right segment will progressively move to the left until only the last two bars are lit; at this level the last two bars will start to flash on and off to indicate the user should charge the batteries as soon as possible. The BGD also serves as a system diagnostic device when a fault is detected by the control module. A specific number of bars (up to eight bars) will start to flash on and off to indicate the type of fault detected. A chart of the diagnostic indications is given in the Diagnostic Code Section of the electronics manual, part number 1043576. Mode and Level Indicators Two LED indicators are located on either side of the battery bar graph display. The Mode light is On (operational) with no options attached and level indicators are only operational when the optional ECU/Recliner Control or optional joysticks are utilized or the Reset switch is activated. These indicators provide information of the status of the control system and the environmental controls. The GREEN Mode indicator shows one of five control states.

Joystick
Proportional drive control located at the front of the control provides smooth control of
speed and direction.
Battery Gauge Display (BGD)
Located at the rear of the control provides information on the remaining charge in the
batteries. At full charge, the two left segments and the farthest right segment of the bar
graph are lit. As the battery becomes discharged, the farthest right segment will
progressively move to the left until only the last two bars are lit; at this level the last two
bars will start to flash on and off to indicate the user should charge the batteries as soon
as possible.
The BGD also serves as a system diagnostic device when a fault is detected by the control
module. A specific number of bars (up to eight bars) will start to flash on and off to
indicate the type of fault detected. A chart of the diagnostic indications is given in the
Diagnostic Code Section of the electronics manual, part number 1043576.
Mode and Level Indicators
Two LED indicators are located on either side of the battery bar graph display.
The Mode light is On (operational) with no options attached and level indicators are only
operational when the optional ECU/Recliner Control or optional joysticks are utilized or
the Reset switch is activated. These indicators provide information of the status of the
control system and the environmental controls. The GREEN Mode indicator shows one
of five control states.
The RED Level indicator provides information on the control level within each mode. Its
operation changes with each mode:
