WiseDX

Short Description
The wiseDX is an electronic system that enables a person to drive an electric wheelchair with switches or a joystick or with other special controls. It will also give the user independent control over their environment and other assistive technology (including electronic communication devices), using the same switches or joystick. It has a built in infrared transmitter giving access to hundreds of different devices.

Price Guide
Refer to supplier details for pricing.

Features
The wiseDX contains a built-in infrared transmitter in the form of a Gewa Prog. It is completely integrated as part of the wiseDX system, allowing the user to have environmental control as well as powered mobility.
Mount
The wiseDX consists of two units:
The main unit, which can be mounted on the back/base of the chair - switches and cables are connected to this,
and the Display Unit that must be seen by the user.
In addition, a master remote needs to be mounted - perhaps as an attendant control.
Dispaly
The display has window dimensions 45mm X 15mm. Good sunlight visibility, but may require a "hood" for shading in strong direct sunlight.
There are 8 bright red "Bar LEDs" and 8 green "Bar LED`s". In addition there is an 8 character LED alpha numeric display.
System Requirements
The wiseDX is Dynamic DX compatible only. It is a DX-Key based module similar to a master remote but still requires a master remote.
