Parameter Purpose
Turning Acceleration The rate of response when the joystick is deflected left
or right from neutral. A value of 10% gives slow
Range 10 - 70 % response, 70% gives fast response.

This defines the rate at which the SLM attempts to
respond to a large increase in steering lock. A small
increase in lock demand is approached at the maximum
possible acceleration. The lock demand at which this
parameter is used is set by the PCD in the SLM
wheelchair program by the Turning Accel Pt
parameter.
Turning Deceleration The rate of response when the joystick is deflected left
or right towards neutral. A value of 15% gives slow
Range 15 - 100 % response, 100% gives fast response.
Accessed by : DCL
This defines the rate at which the SLM attempts to
respond to a large decrease in steering lock. A small
decrease in lock demand is approached at the
maximum possible deceleration. The lock demand at
which this parameter is used is set by the PCD in the
SLM wheelchair program, also by the Turning Accel Pt
parameter.
Note The Turning Deceleration value is normally set as high or higher than the
Turning Acceleration value. An inadequate Turning Deceleration value can result
in an unsafe wheelchair condition.
