Switching Modes
To switch from Active Mode to tandby Mode, touch the Active/ tandby
witch. ee figure 1. When in tandby Mode, the Red tatus LED will blink.
To return to Active Mode, touch the Active/ tandby witch for less than 1.5

Active Mode Operation
The Finger teering Control detects
the position of your finger and
translates that into a proportional
speed. If your finger is in the neutral
position, the power chair will remain
stationary. When you move your
finger to the outer limits of the finger
area, the chair will drive. The further
away your finger is from the neutral
position, the faster the speed. ee

NOTE: If required, a metal rod or other conductive material can be used to
operate the control. This alternate device must make constant contact with
the user to be operational.
