PRODUCT DESCRIPTION AND
INFORMATION
2.1 DESCRIPTION
Standing frames are adjustable in height and have four
wheels, at least two with brakes. The decision on which model
to use is based on the patient’s residual motor and
coordination skills and can only be made by physicians with
adequate specialization.
Depending on the model, the user can get up manually,
clinging to the large side handles and the edges of the tray, or
by means of an electric motor with rechargeable battery,
operated by hand control, or servo-assisted by a gas spring.
It features oversized handles to provide standing support, as
well as a large tray to hold items.
The aid is easy to access and can be adapted to the user’s
morphological characteristics through a wide range of
adjustments. In particular, the main body can be adjusted
according to the user’s height by means of a servo-assisted
system by the gas spring or by an electric motor.

5.3 THE JOYSTICK
The models that provide autonomous mobility have a driving
system consisting of a joystick for moving and the drive
wheels.
There are two Joystick models, based on the purchased aid
model. They differ in shape, size and type of user experience,
but both have common characteristics.
Compact Model Standard Model
The compact model comes with the power button and top
speed dial set further back than the control handle. Both
Joysticks have the charging connector into which the battery
charger plug, supplied as standard, will be inserted, and the
button for the horn. The control knob is a lever that can be
tilted 360° in space and provides an analog steering system
that provides an even speed distribution from idle to
maximum based on how much tilt the knob is given. To
summarise:
Speed dial of the maximum speed in the
standard model. Turning clockwise increases
the maximum speed
Speed dial of the maximum speed in the
compact model. Turning counter-clockwise
increases the maximum speed
Audible warning (horn)
Switch on the steering system
Charging connector for the battery charger
Since the movement takes place from the front drive wheels,
it may be advisable to familiarize yourself with the use of the
joystick control lever to understand how movement occurs in
space. When switched on, the joystick shows the status of the
machine and the battery charge through luminous
indications.
The amount of LEDs lit indicates the percentage of battery
charge.

10
100% charged batteries
Batteries charged to 80%
Batteries charged to 60%
Batteries charged to 40%,
recharging is recommended
Batteries charged to 20%, use is
not recommended, charge
immediately
Generally it is good practice to always keep the batteries
charged, so daily recharging or recharging with low-
discharged batteries is recommended compared to less
frequent recharging or with very discharged batteries. Short
charging cycles extend the life of the batteries. In certain
situations, the charge LEDs take on different meanings, which
are described in detail in the paragraphs below.
5.4 THE HANDSET
Some models of the aid have motorized height adjustment or
motorized lifting support or both. These functions are
activated by using the handset connected to the device via a
long spiral cable, as can be seen from the descriptive photos.
The handset has 4 buttons of different colours. One pair is
dedicated to height adjustment (1) and one pair is for lifting
(2).
1
Increased height of the structure
Decrease in the height of the structure
2
Lifting the patient

5.5 THE REMOTE CONTROL
Some models have the remote steering system, designed
exclusively to approach or move away the aid equipped with
drive wheels. This function allows the patient both to
approach the aid when he needs to stand upright and move
independently, and to move the aid away when he has
finished using it, but there are no people nearby who can
assist him in this regard. In both situations, the situation of
departure or arrival is the patient positioned on a seat or bed
and the aid a few meters away. The control was not designed
for use over long distances, so it has a limited range.
The remote control is coded and has a specific variable code
encryption algorithm linked to a unique identification for
each remote control. This ensures that only the remote
control associated with the aid can work with it and does not
interfere with any other similar aid that may be present in the
vicinity.
Each remote control has a unique identification stamped on
the back and the aid to which it has been associated has a
label with the same identification, to quickly identify which
remote control it has been associated with.
To make the best use of the remote control and understand
the commands more quickly, it is recommended to use it by
turning it 45 ° clockwise. In this way, the correspondence with
the Joystick movement commands is noticeable more quickly.
In this position it is easier to understand in which direction
the movement of the aid will be commanded.
Moving forward
Moving backwards
Left rotation, counter-clockwise
Rotation to the right, clockwise
The remote control only works when the aid is in remote
driving mode. This mode can only be activated by entering a
specific sequence, to avoid abuse by third parties. This
sequence is indicated in the chapters dedicated to using the
device (See 7.3.1.4 ).
