3 OPERATION WITH JOYSTICK-TYPE SIDS
Driving is via the SID’s joystick and the User Switch is used to enter the User Menu or to sequence through the other functions
of the powerchair.
There are several standard R-net programming features that may be useful when using this SID type. These include Joystick
Throw, Joystick Orientation and Joystick Deadband. Refer to the user guide for the programming method you are using for
further details of the available adjustments.
Standard control of seating movement is via Forward and Reverse commands, while Left and Right commands will select a
different seat axis for movement.
If required, it is possible to re-program the Omni2 to control the seating movement in alternative ways. Refer to the Actuator
Selection and Actuator Axes sections in the Programming chapter for further details.
For latched operation using this SID type, refer to the Latched Operation section.

5 OPERATION WITH 3-AXIS PROPORTIONAL AND SWITCH-TYPE SIDS (HEAD ARRAYS)
These types of SID contain a Forward/Reverse command, Left and Right commands, as well as a User Switch(es)*. Driving is
via the Forward/Reverse, Left and Right commands
* Depending on the installation, as well as a normally-closed User Switch, there may be a User Switch integrated into the head
array. This switch would connect to the Omni2 via the Fifth Switch pin on the D-type connector.
User Switch commands are then used to change drive direction and to enter the User Menu or to sequence through the other
functions on the powerchair. There are 3 ways to program the Omni2 to provide this functionality and each is described in the
following sections.
