2.8.9 Notes for settings changed after delivery

2.9 Infrared mode
Applicable only for R-net control panels with a 3.5” or 2.8” color display with integrated infrared.

2.9.1 General
The infrared control, integrated in the joystick module, makes it possible to replicate commonly used infrared devices, such as remote controls for TV, audio, cable, satellite, or environmental controls.
This manual describes the method for learning infrared codes.
The wheelchair is prepared for infrared mode but there are no infrared codes stored in the system at delivery.

2.9.2 Infrared setup
The infrared setup menu can be accessed via the settings menu.
See 2.7 Settings menu, page 31.
On entering the infrared setup menu, the default appliances will appear. When an appliance is selected, its commands are shown. When a command is followed by a check mark it means that it has a stored infrared code. When a command does not have a check mark, its infrared code has not yet been stored.
Infrared codes can be stored or deleted as described in the following sections.
2.9.3 Learning an infrared code
An infrared receiver A is located above the screen on the control panel.
When learning a code, the remote control device must be held so that its infrared transmitter points toward the infrared A receiver on the control panel.

2.9.3.1 Learning an infrared code procedure
Enter the infrared setup menu.
Select an appliance, for example TV – (Device 1) as illustrated.
(Device 1) shows where the equipment’s unique name may appear on the screen.

The commands for the appliance will appear on the screen as shown in the figure. Select a command to learn.
In this example, Channel Up will be selected from the TV menu. Deflect the joystick right to select the command Learn Code when it is highlighted.
Point the TV remote control towards the control panel’s infrared receiver and press the channel up button twice.
If the learn code operation has been successfully completed, a green check mark will be displayed on the screen. If the learn code operation fails, a red cross will be displayed on the screen.
Please retry the learn code operation.

After the code has been learned, scroll down to highlight Exit. Deflect the joystick to the left to return to the appliance menu, infrared setup.
The first time an infrared code is learned, it is necessary to turn off the power at the control panel and turn it back on again.

2.9.4 Learning sequenced infrared codes
Multiple infrared codes can be learned for a single command in the infrared setup menu. This enables multiple infrared codes to be transmitted through a single command when in infrared mode.

Examples:

1. The on/off function for multiple appliances, the TV and the DVD for example, can be learned by a single entry in the infrared setup menu. The control panel will then transmit the codes for the learned command in one burst. In this case, turning on or off the TV set and the DVD recorder practically simultaneously.
2. Previously, selecting a TV channel required the user to select the individual channel’s digits from a list. This could be quite inconvenient when trying to select a TV channel with multiple digits for example 143.
   Now the individual codes for the numbers 1, 4, and 3 can be learned by a single command in the infrared setup menu. When this command is selected in the infrared setup menu, the infrared codes are transmitted practically simultaneously.

2.9.4.1 Creating a sequence

• Select the command to use as the sequence initiator. In this example, TV – ON.
• Select Learn Code by deflecting the joystick to the right while the command is highlighted.
