attendant control lcd panel manufacturer
The R-net Attendant Module can be connected to any point in the system communications bus and to provide control of drive, seating and any other function that is present. Transfer of control between user and attendant is via a simple pushbutton, with additional keys for setting the attendant"s drive speed and accessing other system modes.
Traditional attendant systems are set so that the user can never gain control from the attendant. However, for maximum flexibility, the R-net can be programmed to allow this exception to happen should it be required.
The compact Q-Logic EX Series Stand Alone joystick controller provides attendant control of a rehab power chair. This specialized piece of mobility electronics can be mounted throughout the chair, including chin and mid-line locations. It can also be installed as an auxiliary joystick allowing attendant control in addition to the user"s primary hand controlled joystick.
CP2 is an attendant control panel mainly applied in multifunction medical bed. It can support up to 29 buttons, which can be customized according to customer’s needs. It features 3.5 inch LCD display to support weighing function and status display of bed via working as one of Moteck proprietary bus (MoBus) control systems.
Stay flexible - two wheelchairs in one!If the situation requires it, the e-fix can also be easily moved by hand: You uncouple the drive wheels with a handle and your wheelchair can be pushed by hand as usual – either using the push rims or by an attendant. The manual wheels can usually still be used too.
Being in control of our own lives for as long as possible is something all of us want. Equipment like the e-fix add-on drive can help you achieve this. Great in all circumstances, the add-on drive is a huge help in everyday life. e-fix makes your wheelchair incredibly easy to control – you’ll learn to master it right away!
The powerful drive wheels of the e-fix are great for outdoor use too. Walks with your partner or friends, a stroll around the town – with e-fix, you can do all this and more. The speed is set to anything between 0.3 and 3.75 mph using the easy-grip controller. As a rule, the slower you drive, the swifter the wheelchair reacts. You steer, the e-fix responds!Here’s how it works: e-fix in simple terms
The e-fix Eco offers many of the same features and benefits as the e-fix, including enhanced mobility and independence, convenience, easier travel, and intuitive attendant controlHere’s how we made the e-fix Eco better
(Reuters) - Foxconn Technology Group is reconsidering plans to make advanced liquid crystal display panels at a $10 billion Wisconsin campus, and said it intends to hire mostly engineers and researchers rather than the manufacturing workforce the project originally promised.
Foxconn, which received controversial state and local incentives for the project, initially planned to manufacture advanced large screen displays for TVs and other consumer and professional products at the facility, which is under construction. It later said it would build smaller LCD screens instead.
Rather than a focus on LCD manufacturing, Foxconn wants to create a “technology hub” in Wisconsin that would largely consist of research facilities along with packaging and assembly operations, Woo said. It would also produce specialized tech products for industrial, healthcare, and professional applications, he added.
Rather than manufacturing LCD panels in the United States, Woo said it would be more profitable to make them in greater China and Japan, ship them to Mexico for final assembly, and import the finished product to the United States.
He said that would represent a supply chain that fits with Foxconn’s current “fluid, good business model.”FILE PHOTO: A shovel and FoxConn logo are seen before the arrival of U.S. President Donald Trump as he participates in the Foxconn Technology Group groundbreaking ceremony for its LCD manufacturing campus, in Mount Pleasant, Wisconsin, U.S., June 28, 2018.

Our Attendant Control Panel (ACP) makes work easier for flight attendants thanks to its intuitive, configurable, touch-screen display enabling flexible, user-friendly control of a number of cabin and galley functions. Its modular design allows the control panel features to be customized for a wide variety of aircraft interiors. The ACP makes adjusting cabin settings – such as temperature and lighting – easier, and allows crew members to communicate easily, while providing passengers with optimal comfort and service throughout the flight.
Designed with a manual switch panel to operate safety-critical functions, such as emergency evacuation and air-stair operation in emergency situations
Redundant controls provide “fail-safe” switchover; in multi-panel systems if any panel fails, zone control will automatically be available at another ACP
Integrated headsets provide direct input to the flight attendant allowing them to get notification from the passenger address and cabin intercom without being in front of the ACP
Relay and relay drivers support a wide variety of system functions including PC power, cell phone system, and work lights, allowing them to be controlled independently
Controller and Input Device. There is no separate billing/payment if a non-expandable controller and a standard proportional joystick (integrated or remote) is provided. An expandable controller, a nonstandard joystick (i.e., nonproportional or mini, compact or short throw proportional), or other alternative control device may be billed separately.
The RB modifier is used when an option or accessory is provided as a replacement for the same part which has been worn or damaged (e.g., replacing a tire of the same type). The RB modifier must not be used for an upgrade subsequent to providing the wheelchair base (e.g., replacing a standard seat of a power wheelchair with a power seating system). The RB modifier must not be used if the accessory is provided at the same time as the wheelchair base, even if the option/accessory is the same as one that the patient had on a prior wheelchair. (See section on Power Wheelchair Drive Control Systems for instructions on the use of the KC replacement modifier.)
A wheel braking and lock system (E2228) is a caliper or disc type braking system that permits the controlled slowing of a manual wheelchair or the controlled descent on inclines. It also has full wheel lock capability.

A mechanical shear reduction feature (E1004 and E1007) consists of two separate back panels. As the posterior back panel reclines or raises there is a mechanical linkage between the two panels which allows the patient"s back to stay in contact with the anterior panel without sliding along that panel.
A power shear reduction feature (E1005 and E1008) consists of two separate back panels. As the posterior back panel reclines or raises there is a separate motor which controls the linkage between the two panels and allows the patient"s back to stay in contact with the anterior panel without sliding along that panel.
A power leg elevation feature (E1010) involves a dedicated motor and related electronics with or without variable speed programmability which allows the legrest to be raised and lowered independently of the recline and/or tilt of the seating system. It includes a switch control which may or may not be integrated with the power tilt and/or recline control(s). It includes either articulating or non-articulating legrests. The unit of service of code E1010 is a pair.
A power seat elevation system (E2300) includes: a motor and related electronics with or without variable speed programmability; a switch control which is independent of the power wheelchair drive control interface; any hardware that is needed to attach the seating system to the wheelchair base. It must provide a seat elevation of at least 6 inches.
A power standing system (E2301) includes: a solid seat platform and a solid back; detachable or flip-up fixed height armrests; hinged legrests; anterior knee supports; fixed or flip-up footplates; a motor and related electronics with or without variable speed programmability; a basic switch control which is independent of the power wheelchair drive control interface; any hardware that is needed to attach the seating system to the wheelchair base. It does not include a headrest. It must have the following features: ability to move the patient to a standing position; ability to support patient weight of at least 250 pounds.
Codes E2310 and E2311 describe the electronic components that allow the patient to control two or more of the following motors from a single interface (e.g., proportional joystick, touchpad, or nonproportional interface): power wheelchair drive, power tilt, power recline, power shear reduction, power leg elevation, power seat elevation, power standing. It includes a function selection switch which allows the patient to select the motor that is being controlled and an indicator feature to visually show which function has been selected. When the wheelchair drive function has been selected, the indicator feature may also show the direction that has been selected (forward, reverse, left, right). This indicator feature may be in a separate display box or may be integrated into the wheelchair interface. Payment for the code includes an allowance for fixed mounting hardware for the control box and for the display box (if present).
POWER WHEELCHAIR DRIVE CONTROL SYSTEMS:The term interface in the code narrative and definitions describes the mechanism for controlling the movement of a power wheelchair. Examples of interfaces include, but are not limited to, joystick, sip and puff, chin control, head control, etc. (Note: In the Power Mobility Devices policy, the term "control input device" is used instead of "interface.")
A proportional interface is one in which the direction and amount of movement by the member controls the direction and speed of the wheelchair. One example of a proportional interface is a standard joystick.
The term controller describes the microprocessor and other related electronics that receive and interpret input from the joystick (or other drive control interface) and convert that input into power output which controls speed and direction. A high power wire harness connects the controller to the motor and gears.
May have the ability to control up to 2 power seating actuators through the drive control (for example, seat elevator and single actuator power elevating legrests). (Note: Control of the power seating actuators though the Control Input Device would require the use of an additional component, E2310 or E2311.)
Operate 3 or more powered seating actuators through the drive control. (Note: Control of the power seating actuators though the Control Input Device would require the use of an additional component, E2310 or E2311.)
For power wheelchairs which are capable of being upgraded to an expandable controller (K0835-K0891), E2377 is used if an expandable controller is provided at the time of initial issue.
A harness (E2313) describes all of the wires, fuse boxes, fuses, circuits, switches, etc. that are required for the operation of an expandable controller. It also includes all the necessary fasteners, connectors, and mounting hardware. Code E2312 is separately billable in addition to an expandable controller both at initial issue and with complete replacement of the expandable controller. However, if individual components of the harness are replaced, code K0108 should be used.
A switch is an electronic device which turns power to a particular function either "on" or "off." The external component of a switch may be either mechanical or nonmechanical. Mechanical switches involve physical contact in order to be activated. Examples of the external components of mechanical switches include, but are not limited to, toggle, button, ribbon, etc. Examples of the external components of nonmechanical switches include, but are not limited to, proximity, infrared, etc. Some of the codes include multiple switches. In those situations, each functional switch may have its own external component or multiple functional switches may be integrated into a single external switch component or multiple functional switches may be integrated into the wheelchair control interface without having a distinct external switch component.
A direction change switch allows the patient to change the direction that is controlled by another separate switch or by a mechanical proportional head control interface. For example, it allows a switch to initiate forward movement one time and backward movement another time.
A function selection switch allows the patient to determine what operation is being controlled by the interface at any particular time. Operations may include, but are not limited to, drive forward, drive backward, tilt forward, recline backward, etc.
An integrated proportional joystick and controller is an electronics package in which a joystick and controller electronics are in a single box, which is mounted on the arm of the wheelchair.
The interfaces described by codes E2312, E2321, E2322, E2325, E2327-E2330, and E2373-E2377 must have programmable control parameters for speed adjustment, tremor dampening, acceleration control, and braking.
A remote joystick is one in which the joystick is in one box that is typically mounted on the arm of the wheelchair and the controller electronics are located in a different box that is typically located under the seat of the wheelchair. The joystick is connected to the controller through a low power wire harness. A remote joystick may be used for either hand control, chin control, or attendant control.
A standard proportional remote joystick is one which requires approximately 340 grams of force to activate and which has an excursion (length of throw) of approximately 25 mm from neutral position. It can be used with a non-expandable or an expandable controller. There is no separate billing for a standard proportional remote joystick when it is provided at the time of initial issue of a power wheelchair whether it is used for hand or chin control by the patient or whether it is used as an attendant control in place of a patient-operated drive control interface.
A mini-proportional (short throw) remote joystick (E2312) is one which can be activated by a very low force (approximately 25 grams) and which has a very short displacement (a maximum excursion of approximately 5 mm from neutral). It can only be used with an expandable controller. It can be used for hand or chin control or control by other body part (e.g., tongue, lip, finger tip, etc.) There is no separate billing for control buttons, displays, switches, etc. There is no separate billing for fixed mounting hardware, regardless of the body part used to activate the joystick.
A compact proportional remote joystick (E2373) is one which has a maximum excursion of about 15 mm from neutral position but requires approximately 340 grams of force to activate. It can only be used with an expandable controller. It can be used for hand or chin control or control by other body part (e.g., foot, amputee stump, etc.) There is no separate billing for control buttons, displays, switches, etc. There is no separate billing for fixed mounting hardware, regardless of the body part used to activate the joystick.
A sip and puff interface (E2325) is a nonproportional interface in which the patient holds a tube in their mouth and controls the wheelchair by either sucking in (sip) or blowing out (puff). A mechanical stop switch is included in the allowance for the code. E2325 does not include the breath tube kit which is described by code E2326.
A proportional, mechanical head control interface (E2327) is one in which a headrest is attached to a joystick-like device. The direction and amount of movement of the patient"s head pressing on the headrest control the direction and speed of the wheelchair. A mechanical direction control switch is included in the code.
A proportional, electronic head control interface (E2328) is one in which a member"s head movements are sensed by a box placed behind the member"s head. The direction and amount of movement of the patient"s head (which does not come in contact with the box) control the direction and speed of the wheelchair. A proportional, electronic extremity control interface (E2328) is one in which the direction and amount of movement of the patient"s arm or leg control the direction and speed of the wheelchair.
A nonproportional, contact switch head control interface (E2329) is one in which a member activates one of three mechanical switches placed around the back and sides of their head. These switches are activated by pressure of the head against the switch. The switch that is selected determines the direction of the wheelchair. A mechanical stop switch and a mechanical direction change switch is included in the allowance for the code.
A nonproportional, proximity switch head control interface (E2330) is one in which a member activates one of three switches placed around the back and sides of their head. These switches are activated by movement of the head toward the switch, though the head does not touch the switch. The switch that is selected determines the direction of the wheelchair. A mechanical stop switch and a mechanical direction change switch is included in the allowance for the code.
An attendant control is one which allows a caregiver to drive the wheelchair instead of the member. The attendant control is usually mounted on one of the rear canes of the wheelchair. This code is limited to proportional control devices, usually a joystick. Code E2331 is used when an attendant control is provided in addition to a patient-operated drive control interface.
Code K0108 is appropriately used at the time of initial issue only when the drive control interface that is provided is not included in the base code and there is no specific E code which describes it. Code K0108 is appropriately used at the time of replacement in the following situations:
Due to a change in the member"s condition an integrated joystick and controller is being replaced by another drive control interface - e.g., remote joystick, head control, sip and puff, etc.; or
The member had a drive control interface described by codes E2321-E2322, E2325, E2327-E2330, or E2373 and both the interface (e.g., joystick, head control, sip and puff) and the controller electronics are being replaced due to irreparable damage.
A drive wheel is one which is directly controlled by the motor of the power wheelchair. It may be either a rear wheel, mid wheel, or front wheel, depending on the model of the power wheelchair.
A caster is a smaller wheel that is in contact with the ground during normal operation of the wheelchair and which not directly controlled by the motor. It may be in the front and/or rear, depending on the location of the drive wheel.
Code E2351 describes an electronic interface used with a speech generating device. An electronic interface that is used to allow lights or other electrical devices to be operated using the power wheelchair control interface must be billed with code A9270 (non-covered item). The provider cannot bill the member for the non-covered device.
