INTRODUCTION
Welcome to Quantum Rehab, a division of Pride Mobility Products
Corporation (Pride). Quantum Rehab is dedicated to the customization of
power chairs for users with advanced rehabilitation and mobility issues.
Quantum Rehab also expands possibilities for enhanced healthcare attendant
control over power chair functions to provide a secondary level of support
for our customers where necessary.
Dynamic Dolphin Remote
The Dynamic Dolphin Remote is a DX compatible control unit complete
with a joystick, fully functional keypad, and the capability to support up to
five different drive programs and several actuator functions.
This manual is designed to explain basic operation for the following functions
available with the Dolphin Remote:
1. Magnetic Key Lock System
- The user can lock the power chair to prevent unintended use of the
chair.
2. Joystick OONAPU
- OONAPU stands for “Out Of Neutral At Power Up.” This is a safety
measure designed to prevent unintended movement of the power chair.
3. Drive Program Selection
- The user can choose from one of five programs to control the movement
and speed of the power chair.
4. Actuator Control
- The user can control up to five actuators using the Dolphin Remote.
Figure 1 provides information on the Dynamic Dolphin Remote components
and connections. Use this diagram to familiarize yourself with the function
and location of each component before using the Dynamic Dolphin Remote.

MAGNETIC KEY LOCK SYSTEM
1. To arm the locking system, hold the magnetic key on or near the key
symbol on the Dolphin front panel. See figure 1. The system will beep
and automatically power itself down. No LEDs should be lit.
2. To turn the power chair back on, press the On/Off Switch. The system
will power on, but the locking system needs to be disarmed before normal
operation can occur. The key symbol will flash, indicating that the system
should be disarmed.
3. To disarm the lock, put the magnetic key on or near the key symbol. The
LED will stop flashing, and normal operation may resume. If the locking
system is not disarmed within one minute, the Dolphin will shut itself
off.
JOYSTICK OONAPU
If the power chair is powered up while the joystick is not in the neutral
position, the System Status LED will flash for as long as the condition persists
up to a maximum of five seconds. After five seconds, a Fault Flash Code is
signaled on the System Status LED, and the Remote Status LED will flash.
To clear the fault, power down, put the joystick in neutral, and power the
system back on.
DRIVE PROGRAM SELECTION
The Dolphin can control up to five drive programs. Drive Program 1 is
configured as the slowest, and Drive Program 5 is configured as the fastest.
To select the preferred drive program, press the Drive Program Select Switch.
The selected drive program will be displayed on the 7-segment display. See
figure 1. Each press of the Drive Program Select Switch will increase the
drive program to the next level until it cycles back to Drive Program 1.

ACTUATOR CONTROL
The Dolphin can support the control of up to five actuators if a correctly
configured actuator control module is present.
NOTE: Once an actuator is selected, driving will be inhibited until the
actuator is deselected.
1. Press the Actuator Switch representing the seat function needing
adjustment. See figure 2.
2. Push the joystick full forward or full reverse to adjust the actuator. A
forward command with the joystick will extend the actuator; a reverse
command will retract the actuator.
NOTE: When using the Dolphin in conjunction with a TRx Seating System,
give a reverse command to extend the actuator, release the joystick, then
give another reverse command to retract the actuator. The reverse command
toggles between extend and retract only for TRx units.
3. Press theActuator Switch again to deselect the actuator and resume normal
operation.
