4 T700 - CONTROLLER INFORMATION 4 PCB CONVERSION The T700 PCB is compatible with any previous 120/130 stairlift (post 2005). Before converting your current PCB to a T700 Controller, ensure you have the following items: • T700 PCB • T700 1.5A 28DCv Power Supply • T700 Digital Display PCB • T700 Digital Display Lead • T700 User Manual • T700 12v Battery Monitoring Lead POWER SUPPLY (PSU) The T700 1.5A 28vDC power supply features Universal Input, which allows you to connect an AC power lead from any country. This unified power supply will replace the 1.5A 15 ACV transformer used in the past (USA 2.5A 15 ACV). Note: The T700 PCB CANNOT be used with the previous 15 ACV transformer. CHARGING SYSTEM The T700 uses 2x 12V / 7Ah Lead-Acid batteries. Once the stairlift is parked on a charge point, the T700 charging system will re-charge the batteries, until reaching its maximum capacity.

5 5 T700 - CONTROLLER INFORMATION LOW BATTERY PROCEDURE F5 - E7 In the event of the stairlift entering a low battery level during travel, you will experience the following: • The lift will stop and display F5 (battery flat) with an audible warning, reverting to E7 after the arm toggle or remote is activated. • The stairlift will ONLY drive in the downwards direction displaying E7, until the bottom parking position is reached. • The display code E7 will remain and will automatically clear once the batteries have recharged to a safe level. HIBERNATION MODE The Stairlift will enter hibernation mode after 60 seconds, if the unit is positioned away from a charge point or in the event of a power cut. The display will turn off, which will reduce energy consumption. In hibernation mode, the Stairlift will beep twice every approximately 40 seconds, only by pressing a directional switch from the arm or remote control will return the lift to normal operation. REMOTE CONTROL OPERATION The T700 operates using Infrared (IR). This is selected using the “Setting Mode” menu. • Infrared This technology requires line of sight with the stairlift to operate correctly. There are 4 operating channels available. Note: RF technology is available when experiencing IR interferences

6 VOLUME CONTROL The T700 features 3 volume settings. FAULT CODES The T700 PCB comes with Unified fault code system for easier diagnosis. POWERED SWIVEL OPTION The T700 has the powered swivel operating circuit integrated. No extra PCBs are required in the carriage when using this option. Powered Swivel Operation: • Upwards movement using the directional switch on the arm When the lift reaches the top stopping position. The lift will stop, and after a short delay the seat will automatically swivel. (This short delay is for safety reasons) • Downwards movement using the directional switch on the arm When a call is made, the seat will swivel back to the travel position. After a short delay, the lift will automatically start its travel. (This short delay is for safety reasons) • Upwards movement using the remote control The lift will reach the top stopping position and stop. Release and press the remote again to start the swivel operation. • Downwards movement using the remote control When a call is made, the seat will swivel back to the travel position and stop. Release and press the remote again to start the lift operation.

POWERED FOOTREST OPTION The T700 has the powered footrest operating circuit integrated. No extra PCBs are required in the carriage when using this option. Powered Footrest Operation: At the top or bottom of the stairs, after the stairlift comes to a stop, use the buttons located along both sides of the seat to lower or raise the footrest as required. AUTO HINGE OPTION When the Auto Hinge setting has been selected in the T700 system, it will require the addition of a limit ramp to activate the operation of the hinge . The T700 Hinge Controller features: • RF Technology, no umbilical cable require • Arm rest toggle and remote control operation • No call stations required • Battery backup power supply, allowing operation of the hinge in the event of a power cut • Coded communication protocol, reducing interference • Manual hinge activation (for engineer or emergency use only) • External LED power ON display • Universal Input, which enables you to connect AC power leads from different countries.

When the lift reaches the hinge activation ramp, the stairlift will stop and the auto hinge will be automatically raised or lowered. This will allow the user to operate the hinge safely. • Upward movement using the remote control When the lift reaches the activation ramp, the stairlift will park and the auto hinge will be automatically raised. Release and press the remote again if a journey to the top is required. • Downward movement using the remote control When the lift reaches the activation ramp, the stairlift will park. Release and press the remote again if a journey to the bottom is required. T700 - CONTROLLER INFORMATION 8 MANUAL HINGE OPTION - AUTO PARKING FUNCTION When a manual hinge is used with the T700 system, it will require the addition of a limit ramp to assist parking the lift. Operation: • Using the remote control When the lift reaches the activation ramp, the stairlift will park. Release and press the remote control again if a journey to the top or the bottom is required. • Using the directional switch on the arm The lift will drive thought the hinge ramp without stopping.

Accessing to “Setting Mode” is required to: 1. Select RH or LH installation 2. Select IR or RF remote operation 3. Select Auto Hinge or complete setting process To access “Setting Mode”: Position the lift away from the charge point Turn the Key Off Fold the footplate up Turn the Key Off Simultaneously, press and hold the UP and DOWN carriage cover (E4 E5) and the underside of the footplate (E1) for 4 seconds. The lift will display P1.

Up call for RH Down Call for LH The lift will display RH or LH, continue to step 2 STEP 2 - SETTING THE REMOTE CONTROL TYPE Up call to select IR Down call to select RF With RH or LH showing on the display, use the arm toggle to select the remote control type. The lift will display IR or RF, continue to step 3

With IR or RF showing on the display, use the arm toggle to select if the lift has or not an Auto Hinge section. Up call to select Auto Hinge Down call to select Manual Hinge and exit The lift will display AH or E9, continue to step 4 if AH has been selected STEP 4 - SAVING THE SETTINGS Press UP to save the settings. The lift will beep twice to confirm acceptance.

12 WIRING THE HINGE CONTROL BOX See wiring diagram in page 22 for reference. Remove plastic protection cap from the red battery terminal inside the hinge control box and connect the Red wire to the battery. Connect the hinge control box to the main supply socket in the wall. PAIRING THE HINGE CONTROL BOX TO THE T700 PCB Position the lift away from the charge point Turn the Key Off Press and hold the DOWN cover safety (E4) Press the arm UP once. The lift will display P9
