DRIVE PROFILE SELECTION
Your Microdrive controller may be programmed for more than one drive profile
that allows the system to be custom tailored to your environment.
To select a profile setting:
1. Use the on/off switch to power on the chair and the controller.
2. Press the mode switch.
3. Move the joystick left or right to select the desired drive profile. Each of the
LEDs in the profile/speed indicator indicate a separate profile.
NOTE: The system can be programmed with up to 5 different profiles.
SPEED ADJUSTMENT
The Microdrive controller provides a speed adjustment dial to control the speed
of the power chair.
To change the speed:
1. Use the on/off switch to power on the chair and the controller.
2. To increase your speed, turn the speed adjustment dial clockwise.
3. To decrease your speed, turn the speed adjustment dial counterclockwise.
SLEEP MODE
The Microdrive controller offers a sleep mode feature which will shut off the main
power if the joystick remains stationary for a period of five minutes. The battery
condition meter will indicate sleep mode by blinking once every five seconds. To
restore power and resume operation of the chair, flip the on/off switch twice.
THERMAL ROLLBACK
The Microdrive controller is equipped with a thermal rollback circuit which moni-
tors the temperature of the chair’s motors and controller. If either exceeds 122° F/
50° C, the controller reduces the motor voltage by 5 volts for every degree over.
This reduces the chair’s speed and allows a cool down period. Once the tem-
perature returns to a safe level, the chair will resume normal operation.
