The horn button is also used to unlock a locked system. Refer to
6.9 Locking/Unlocking the Remote, page 18.
6.9 Locking/Unlocking the Remote
1.
1. Press the ON/OFF button A for more than four seconds.
When entering the locked state, the battery indicator
indicates the transition by flashing LEDs red, amber and
green (far left, middle and far right) three times.
1. Press the ON/OFF button A.
2. Press the horn B twice within 10 seconds.
If you implement the unlock sequence incorrectly or press the
ON/OFF button again before the unlock sequence is complete,
the system returns to the locked state.
During an unlock attempt, the battery indicator indicates the
system is in a locked state by flashing LEDs red, amber and
green (far left, middle and far right) until either the system is
powered off or unlocked or the Sequence Timeout is reached.
6.10 Using Sleep Mode
Sleep mode is not set at the factory but can be enabled by your
provider. If this parameter is set to ON, the system goes into
sleep mode after a period of time without user activity. This
period can be set by the provider.
During the transition period, the remote module LEDs gradually
dim. The joystick, horn, speed dial and power button continue
to operate.
To wake the system from sleep mode, press the ON/OFF button
or move the joystick, if this parameter has been enabled by the
provider.
6.11 Using Rest Mode
The rest state of the LiNX system provides the occupant with a
safe environment in which to sleep, rest or carry out other
activities without fear of accidentally triggering an unwanted
action with the driver control.
The rest state is entered automatically after a period of user
inactivity (timeout) or manually by the user via a control input,
as configured by the provider. Contact your provider for more
information.
6.11.1 Entering Rest
The system can be programmed to enter rest automatically
after a period of inactivity or manually via a control input or
both. Specifically, rest can be entered from:
lA drive or seating function via timeout
lAny function via a control input, such as an egg switch
lMenu select via timeout
lMenu navigation via control input
Entry to rest is prohibited when a system is being
programmed. If the system is in rest and a LiNX Access
tool connects to a LAK, rest is exited.
Entering Rest from a Drive or Seating Function via Timeout
To enter rest from a drive or seating function via timeout, the
function's profile must be enabled for timeout into rest and the
rest timeout must expire. The rest timeout is reset whenever
there is user activity.
Entering Rest from Any Function via Control Input
To enter rest from any function via a control input, a user must
activate a control input that has been configured to enter rest
when activated. Entry to rest will not occur in the following
conditions:
lThere is any demand from the driver control
lThe wheelchair is driving

lAny seating actuator is active
Entering Rest from Menu Select via Timeout
To enter rest from menu select via timeout, the profile that was
active before entering menu navigation must be enabled for
timeout into rest and the rest timeout must expire. The rest
timeout is reset whenever there is user activity.
Entering Rest from Menu Navigation via Control Input
To enter rest from menu navigation via control input, a user
must activate a control input that has been configured to enter
rest when activated. Entry to rest will not occur in the following
conditions:
lThere is any demand from the driver control
lAny seating actuator is active
6.11.2 In Rest
If audible cues are enabled in the system, when the system
transfers into rest from a function or menu navigation, an
audible signal is emitted to let the user know that they are
entering into the rest state.
The LiNX system can operate in the rest state with the driver
control fully or partly disabled. When the driver control is fully
disabled, user demands from the driver control have no effect.
This is the most secure option for users, giving them the
confidence that any subsequent demands from the driver
control, intentional or accidental, will not result in any action,
such as driving or seating.
When the driver control is partly disabled, the system is
allowed to respond to a long press into one or more of the
driver control's quadrants to perform a preconfigured action.
The action could be Exit Rest or one of any number of available
actions.
Although the partly disabled mode does not provide the same
extent of confidence as the fully disabled mode, it is useful for
those users that require quick access to valued or often-used
functions and actions. For example, the driver control can be
configured to provide quick access to a favorite menu or
function.
When in rest mode, only the power button is illuminated. All
other indicators are switched off.
6.11.3 Exiting Rest
The system remains in rest until one of the following occurs:
lNormal operation is resumed manually.
lThe system times out into sleep if configured to do so.
lThe system is power cycled.
How normal operation is resumed manually depends on if the
driver control is fully disabled or partly disabled.
To manually resume normal operation when the driver control
is fully disabled, the user can:
lActivate a control input that is normally configured for
accessing user functions, menu navigation or settings.
lActivate a control input that is normally configured for
performing a profile or function change.
lActivate a control input that is specifically configured to
exit rest and return the user to the location they were in
before entering rest; this is used for both user functions
and menu navigation.
To manually resume normal operation when the driver control
is partly disabled, the user can:
lPerform a long press into a quadrant that is configured for
accessing user functions, menu navigation or settings.
lPerform a long press into a quadrant that is specifically
configured to exit rest and return the user to the location
they were in before entering rest.
lPerform long press into a quadrant that is configured for
performing a profile or function change or any other
action available when configuring the long press.
If audible cues are enabled, an audible signal is emitted as the
system re-enters the functions or navigation menu.
6.12 Operating Powered Seating Functions
Powered seating functions, such as powered elevating legrests
or powered recline, are carried out as described in this section.
6.12.1 Through External Switches
Not all configurations and combinations of powered
seating functions through external switches are
available on all products.
With an external switch, seating functions can be controlled
while driving and without using the joystick.
Egg Switch
The egg switch alternates powered seating functions of the
following single power configurations:
lPowered recline only
lPowered seat tilt only
lCenter-mount elevating legrest (LNX) only
