Hi,
For special wheelchair controls with switches I have in the past using
the motors clicking in (ie disengage) to give the feedback to the
patient whilst checking switch positions. At least one of the more
modern chairs when the motor engage lock is disengaged then does not
provide any power to the motor relays. Does anyone use an inline switch
tester box for positive feedback, one with voice saying "left" and
"right" would be even better than a simple beep noise too.
Thanks,
