9.0 R-net Control System
9.1 R-net control system information
An alternative control system called R-net is available for the
wheelchair.
The R-net system has extended options and is suitable for
individuals with complex needs or when there is a preference
for screen based menu options and information displays.
The R-net control system offers simple, effective solutions
to many situations, thereby enhancing the lifestyle and
independence of the user.
The operation of the R-net wheelchair control system is simple
and easy to understand. Both the R-net and VR2 control
systems incorporates state-of-the-art electronics, the result of
many years of research, to provide you with ease of use and a
very high level of safety.
Because of the comprehensive nature of the R-net control
system, a separate R-net Owner's Manual is supplied
whenever this system is fitted.
The R-net control system can be programed to suit the drive
performance needs of the user. The R-net control system
can be programmed via a hand held or PC programmer.
Programming can significantly change the drive profiles of the
wheelchair: For this reason programming must only be carried
out by your approved Sunrise Medical dealer/service agent.
Please refer to the R-net Owner's Manual for details
of R-net hand control functions.
