OONAPU
OONAPU (“Out Of Neutral At Power Up”) is a safety feature that prevents accidental movement of
the wheelchair, either when powering up, or when the wheelchair comes out of an inhibit state.
If the LiNX LE System is turned on (or comes out of an inhibit state) while the joys
ck is not in the
UPANOO na ,noitisop ertnec warning is displayed. During an OONAPU warning, the ba
ery gauge
LEDs will flash con
nually to alert the user, and the chair will not drive. If the joys
ck is returned to
the centre posi
on within five seconds, the warning will clear and the wheelchair will drive normally.
However, if the joys
ck remains out of neutral for longer than five seconds, an OONAPU error will
occur; the error is displayed by the Status indicator flashing red, and the chair will not drive. To clear
the error, return the joys
ck to the neutral posi
on and power the unit off and then on again.
The
The joys ck controls the direc on and speed of the wheelchair.
When the joys
ck is deflected from the centre posi on, the wheelchair will
move in the direc
on of the joys ck movement.
The speed of the wheelchair is propor
onal to the joys ck deflec on, so that
the further the joys
ck is moved from the centre posi on, the faster the
wheelchair will travel.

The speed dial allows the user to limit the maximum speed of the wheelchair
(that is, the speed when the joys
ck is fully deflected) to suit their preference
and environment.
The dial offers 10 discrete steps between the lowest speed (dial set to the le
)
and the highest speed (dial set to the right).

As a visual reminder, a speed symbol (shown le ) is posi oned just below the
speed dial to indicate the low and high posi
ons of the speed dial.
