3 Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) Information
3.1 Electromagnetic Compatibility
Refer to the power wheelchair base and seating system user manuals for more electromagnetic compatibility information
for your mobility device.
Dynamic Controls Electronic Controllers have been tested on typical, representative vehicles to confirm compliance with the
following appropriate EMC standards:
lUSA: ANSI/RESNA WC-2:2009 Sec 21
lEurope: EN12184:2014, ISO7176 - 21:2009
National and international directives require confirmation of compliance on particular vehicles. Since EMC is dependent on a
particular installation, each variation must be tested. The guidelines in this section are written to assist with meeting EMC
requirements in general.

The utility screen allows you to operate system controls (such as the lighting functions and the horn), as well as control outputs with
external inputs. The Utility screen function is suitable for both three-quadrant (3Q) and four-quadrant (4Q) inputs.
The utility screen allows you to operate two controls/outputs per quadrant, according to the duration the user input is activated:
lA Short/Momentary press
lB Long press
By default, this function is enabled only for chair configurations with an external control input that will not allow the control of the
horn or lights. Contact your provider to change the configuration and to set your desired operations.
For an example of how to use a utility screen in daily use, see 6.12 Operating Lighting Functions and the Horn via the Utility Function
Card, page 51.

4.4 Navigation Button
Depending on the configuration of the remote module and the user’s needs, the navigation button displays on the bottom-left or
bottom-right of the screen.
When activated, the navigation button changes color from grey to blue.
The navigation button has two important functions:
1. A visual indication of the configured interaction mode.
