Installation

CAUTION: Before you start with the installation:
  • Please check the packaging and verify that all items are included.
  • Make sure that you have all the necessary documentation and knowledge to install this device.
  • Check the condition of the device.

Installation Plan

Set up an installation plan before beginning the installation. Based on the users' needs and capabilities, this plan should take into account:

  • Where which part of the device should be placed.
  • How the device will be operated.
  • A robust and reliable positioning. Hard or sudden movements of the wheelchair may not disorganize the installation.
Warning: Protect the device against bumps. Mind damaging the unit and wiring. Make sure that cabling is mounted in such a way that excessive wear and tear is avoided.
Warning: Make sure that loose parts of the cable are out of reach to avoid strangulation or other injuries.
CAUTION: Long periods of repetitive motion using the product may be associated with nerve, tendon or muscle injury in your hands, wrists, arms, shoulders, neck or back. See a qualified health professional for pain, numbness, weakness, swelling, burning, cramping or stiffness.
CAUTION: Do not pull or wrap the cable around the device.

Installation

  1. Define the position of the device. Make sure that it is easily accessible to the user.
  2. The device should be mounted on a flat surface. It should be mounted securely with consideration for minimal risk of jamming or blocking (access to) the device.
    Note: Use the delivered screws for surfaces with a thickness of up to 2 mm. If you use a thicker surface, be aware that the depth of the insert is 3 mm max.
  3. The connector jack should stay clean and needs to be inserted completely into the device.

Adjusting the dip switch

Adjust the dip switch by following these steps:
  1. Disconnect the switch.
  2. Remove the rubber insert on the bottom of the device.
  3. Configure the dip switch by using a small screwdriver (see positions below).
  4. Reapply the rubber insert.
    CAUTION: If the rubber insert is not fitted correctly or even at all, this can compromise the waterproofness of the device.
    Position Functionality
    Default position: compatible with default systems which require a normally open connection.
    R-net resistor values: Compatible with Curtiss-Wright specifications for the CJSM II and Omni II.
    LiNX Band 10 resistor value
    LiNX Band 1 resistor value
  5. You can now reconnect and use the device.
Note: Some R-net and LiNX parameters need to be set correctly before the safety switch functionality is operational. See .
