Intended Use 3.2
The i-Drive control system allows the use of alternative input devices to drive an
electric wheelchair. Up to six input devices — such as an egg switch, proximity
pad, Sip ’n’ Puff, head array, and tray array — are able to be supported. The i-
Drive system relies primarily on two types of input interpretations, switched and
proportional. The interpretation used for each channel is dependent upon the
function assigned to it. The i-Drive system includes software that can display
real-time diagnostic data (e.g., desired direction of motion) to help set up and
verify a configuration.

Index 6.0
Index 6.1
Configurable Parameters (Switched): There are two additional configurable
parameters in the i-Drive configuration application for switched inputs, sensor sensitivity
and linked left/right.
Sensor Sensitivity: This parameter shifts the position of the switch no-
change region. A higher value therefore means that a switch will always be
interpreted as ON, whereas a lower value means that a switch will almost always
be interpreted as OFF.
Linked Left-Right: The left and right inputs can be linked so the chair
moves forward when both are engaged. This feature may be enabled under the
sensor settings for Left or Right in the configurator apps, or by selecting Linked
Left and Linked Right to the respective channels in the i-Drive Programmer
Windows application.
Configurable Parameters (Proportional): Proportional inputs have the following
additional configurable parameters. Note that it is best to handle these by first
calibrating the input through Joystick Calibration in the i-Drive configuration
applications.
Dead Band Region: This may be used to define the dead band low and high
relative to the proportional minimum and maximum. Calibration is required in
order to calculate the center voltage.
Calibration: This feature is accessible directly through Config Mode rather
than the Channels menu after a proportional function has been assigned. The
calibration procedure calculates the center voltage as well as the recommended
values for the proportional region and dead band region based on user input.
Configurable Parameters (Multi-Tap): The multi-tap feature is configurable under
Multi-Tap in the i-Drive configuration applications. Two parameters are configurable,
Input Delay and Output Speed.
Multi-Tap: The i-Drive system implements an extended double-tap timer to
accommodate clients who need a longer double-tap input time. The double-tap
extension time is shared with the triple-tap activation time in mouse mode.
Input Delay: This is the longest time that the i-Drive system will wait for
additional taps after the first tap is detected. It may be set manually or
calibrated using the Calibrate option in the i-Drive Configuration applications.
No single- or double-tap input will be acknowledged until after time has
expired; this delay should be set as short as possible based on how fast the user
can reliably tap the input.
Output Speed: This is the speed of the multi-tap pulse that is sent to the
chair. The i-Drive system simulates a user inputting a multi-tap to the chair at a
faster rate. This may be set manually in the i-Drive configuration applications.

i-Drive Bluetooth Minimum System Requirements 8.1
EMC Requirements 8.2
Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) up to 20 V/m.
Control System Overview 8.3
The i-Drive system operates in different modes, including RUN and CONFIG modes. In
RUN mode, changes to the settings are not allowed, and computed outputs are sent to the
chair.
In CONFIG mode, settings changes are allowed, and computed outputs are not sent to
the chair. To prevent unwanted input activations due to low voltage, The i-Drive system
automatically switches to CONFIG mode if the system voltage falls below 10 volts.
The USB cable enables an external device to communicate with i-Drive via the use of a
virtual communications port. The Bluetooth interface enables an external device to com-
municate with the i-Drive via a secure Bluetooth connection.
For both connections, authentication is required for access.
