IV. WHEELCHAIR USE & CONFIGURATION
C. Contact Surfaces
WARNING: Handling of wheelchair surfaces with elevated temperatures can result in a
potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in injury.
•
Do not expose the chair and components to any extreme cold. Extremely cold metal
surfaces may result in skin freezing to the surface and resulting in skin damage.
Be aware that prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or other sources of radiant heat may
increase the temperature of surfaces on your wheelchair above recommended limits estimated
by standards.
Caretakers should assess patients for adverse reactions on the skin from contact surfaces such
as redness, swelling, irritation sensitization, allergy, immune response or other reactions.
D. Power Tilt
The Focus Power Tilt uses a Reac RCB10 battery and interface control box when operating with
adaptive switches. The Reac Control Box - RCB10 is a compact and flexible 4 channel control
box with a 2 Ah battery pack and an external charger. The RCB10 is designed to comply with
standards for powered wheelchairs (EN 12184) and assistive products (EN 12182). See Fig. 1.

Charging
Cable Port
Interface Control Box Mounting
Mount the interface control box and cable in a location that the cable will not be pinched, cut,
trapped by moving components or obstruct tilt movement. The interface control box must be
close enough to the battery so that the cable is not stretched or pulled free. Ensure cable is not
exposed to being caught or snagged by any other objects.
Connecting Adaptive Switches to Interface Control Box (See image above)
For a single switch, connect the single switch interface cable to port three on the interface
control box. For a dual switch, connect the two dual switch interface cables to port one and two
of the interface box. Route the adaptive switch cable(s) so it will not be pinched, cut, trapped by
moving components or obstruct tilt movement. Ensure there is enough slack in the cable(s) so
they are not stretched or pulled free from the interface control box or mounting location.
NOTE: The interface control box cable accepts a 3.5mm / 1/8" mono phono jack.
WARNING: Ensure hand control box and cables are secure and out of the way of any
moving parts to prevent possible damage and/or a possible fall which can result in injury.
