sequence of buttons

Yes, no Used to set whether an alarm signal sounds when the wheelchair is driving
in reverse
Emergency Stop
Switch
Yes, no Used to set whether an emergency stop switch must be used when operati-
on in latched mode is programmed.
When set to Yes, an emergency stop switch (break contact) must be con-
nected to the socket for the input device for the external profile on the joy-
stick module when latched driving or operation of the variable motor in latch
mode is programmed. If no emergency stop switch is installed, operation of
the wheelchair is blocked.
When set to No, no emergency stop switch is required. This setting should
only be used following an analysis of all the associated risks, i.e., no emer-
gency stop can be performed when driving or operating a variable motor in
latched mode.
Ottobock shall not be liable for any losses etc. of any kind resulting from
the use of a wheelchair which is programmed for driving or operation of a
variable motor in latched mode and which has not been installed with an
emergency stop switch.
