Speed Turn Rate:
The speed turn rate
parameter defines the
maximum turn speed
while driving. This
parameter is only used
in specialty input. Used
with switched input, the
value has to be smaller
than the turn speed.

<(**) Note that in 3 switch mode a toggle command is used to change
between forward and reverse drive commands. This will not be possible
when the tremor suppression is set to a high value. In this case the short
command to toggle the direction is perceived as a strong tremor and is
therefore ignored as a input command.
<When using a sip puff specialty control this parameter must be set to
other specialty input.
Specialty Input
Input setup 1-switch Parameter programming
1-Switch input parameter:
When the display is programmed in a single switch application the user will need a secondary switch in the
mode port of the Enhanced Display to activate drive and seating functions. The Enhanced display screen will
display direction arrows and a mode selection around the outside edge of the screen. The number of directions
can be programmed to be a 4way or 8way scan. Other associated parameters are scan rate, 4 or 8 way scan,
and 1-switch time-out. These will be discussed later in the presentation.

Input setup 2-switch Parameter programming
2-Switch input parameter:
With two-switch control (Left, Right), a remote Mode key is optional. Without a Mode key, cycling through the
profiles can be done with a double short Left command.
To drive forward, the user gives a short Right command followed by a long Right command; to drive in reverse,
the user gives a short Left command followed by a long Left command. Single Left and Right commands are
used to make turns.
To navigate within a menu, a short plus a long Right command highlights the previous menu item, and a short
plus a long Left command highlights the next item. A short Left command is used for escape, and a short Right
command for select.

3-switch input parameter:
With three-switch control (Forward, Left, Right), a remote Mode key is optional. Without a Mode key, cycling through the
profiles is done with a double short Left command. As there is no Reverse switch, the Forward switch is used for both
directions. A short Forward command toggles between forward and reverse. A direction arrow on the Enhanced Display
indicates which direction is selected. The Forward switch can then be used to drive in the indicated direction. When navigating
within the Seat menu, the Right and Left commands are used to select the desired seat function; a short Forward command
toggles between up and down movement, and the Forward switch can then be used to move the selected part in the indicated
direction. In the Aux menu, a short Forward command toggles between previous and next, and the Forward switch can then be
used to move through the menu in the selected direction. The Right command is used to select items, and the Left command
to exit.
4-switch input parameter:
Four-switch control (Fwd, Rev, Left, Right) does not use a Mode key. Commands are straightforward: the Forward, Reverse,
Left, and Right switches select those directions, and also navigate within menus. In the Seat menu, a Right command selects
the next seat function, and Forward and Reverse correspond to up and down movement; to exit the Seat menu, use either a
Left command or a Mode command. In the Aux menu, Forward and Reverse commands move to the previous and the next
menu item; a Right command selects the highlighted menu item, and a Left (or Mode) command exits the Aux menu. Cycling
through the profiles is done with a double short Left command.
5-switch input parameter:
Five-switch control (Forward, Reverse, Left, Right, Mode) requires a Mode key—either the Mode switch that is part of the 9pin connector of the ED (and connected to pin 6 the 9-pin D-sub), or an external Mode switch connected to the Mode
jack.Commands are straightforward: the Forward, Reverse, Left, and Right switches select those directions, and also navigate
within menus. In the Seat menu, a Right command selects the next seat function, and Forward and Reverse correspond to up
and down movement; to exit the Seat menu, use either a Left command or a Mode command. In the Aux menu, Forward and
Reverse commands move to the previous and the next menu item; a Right command selects the highlighted menu item, and a
Left (or Mode) command exits the Aux menu. The Mode key is used to cycle through the profiles.

3-switch head commands.
Drive commands:
Forward/Reverse Untilted( 3-switch head only): Forward and reverse are selected by toggling the Back switch. The Back
switch is then used to drive in the selected direction..
Left/Right Untilted(3-switch head only): Left and right are selected with the Left and Right switches. A double command of the
left head pad will change to a different profile.

Specialty Input
Input setup 3,4 , & 5-switch head tilt threshold head
programming parameter
Tilt Threshold Head
Control:
This threshold only is active if
a head array is used as the
input device. Such as 3-switch
head, 4-switch head, and 5switch head. If this threshold is
on and the tilt is beyond the
set degree on this parameter,
but below the degree set for tilt
threshold driving, the driving
will change from 3, 4, or 5
switch mode to 2 switch mode.
This means forward and
reverse driving will be
controlled with the right head
pad and left and right driving
directions with the left head
pad.

3, 4, and 5 switch head commands when tilted:
Drive commands:
Forward/Reverse. Tilted(3,4,&5 switch head):In the programming under the seat parameter<tilt sensing you will find Tilt
Threshold Head. When this threshold degree is set, and it is below the full drive lockout, the user can return to a drive profile and
the display screen will have 2 arrows on it. The head array will now work drive functions as follows. Forward and reverse are
selected by toggling the Right switch, which then is used to drive in the selected direction.
Left/Right. Tilted(3,4,&5 switch head): In the programming under the seat parameter<tilt sensing you will find Tilt Threshold

Input setup Proportional Parameter programming
Proportional and 3 Direction Proportional input:
Four-axis and 3-axis joystick operation are both possible. In both cases a Mode switch is required, to switch
between profiles. The parameter Input Setup is set to “proportional” when a proportional input is used.
A 4-axis joystick provides proportional control in each of the four directions. A 3-axis joystick enables a user who
has difficulty making pulling motions to nevertheless command four directions. Forward and reverse share the
same joystick position, and the user toggles between them. An arrow on the LCD indicates whether forward or
reverse is active.
Examples of these types of devices are: RJM, Finger Steer, Magitek, Mini Joystick, and Touch Pads. A 3direction proportional device example would be a RIM control
