The joystick display
The joystick display is a multifunctional visual display. This display provides three
types of information:
On / Off status;
Battery indicator;
Fault diagnostics.
Battery indicator
The joystick LED array is composed of 10 LED lights:
Three: Red;
Four: Orange;
Three: Green.
When all LED lights are lit continuously, there is a full charge on the batteries. As
you use your power chair the batteries will discharge The LED lights in the array will
begin to turn off in descending order. A single red LED light indicates the lowest
state of operable charge on the batteries. The batteries should be charged
immediately.
Control system status indication
The joystick LED array is also designed to help you diagnose any problems with the
electrical components of your power chair. The LED array does this by flashing on
and off in a coded sequence. The battery gauge and maximum speed/ profile
indicator show the status of the control system.
Battery indicator is steady
This indicates that all is well.
Battery indicator flashes slowly
The control system is functioning correctly, but you should charge the batteries as
soon as possible.
Battery indicator steps up
The power chair batteries are being charged. You will not be able to drive the power
chair until the charger is disconnected and you have switched the control system off
and on again.
Battery indicator ripples
The joystick has been displaced out of the neutral position while the control system
is switched on. Release the joystick to clear the fault. Note that this is not a fault. If
the condition persists after removing your hand, the joystick may be damaged.
Contact your Travelux dealer.
Battery indicator flashes rapidly
The control system safety circuits have operated and the control system has been
prevented from moving the power chair. This indicates a system trip, i.e. the VR2
has detected a problem somewhere in the power chair’s electrical system.
