    So, my new chair had a sticker on it to activate the Bluetooth. What does that do? The rep couldn’t tell me much. Although I’m intrigued I’d like to know more before I just start messing with things. Have an inkling it might be something I love if I can figure it out.

    Not sure what joistick, but have seen one that you can connect to phone, on Android it appears as a pointer device (mouse) and or tv/decoder (remote control).

     

    Try and peer it ????

    Is it a permobil? The chair’s manual has a whole section on bluetooth and what it can do and how to set it up.

    Hiya! On the Permobil on Android playstore is an app that will link to your chair. It’s pretty cool! They will tell you lots of stats on your chair as you use it.

     

    Also the controller on the chair can be used as a Switch to control things like your TV as an example.

     

    Check out the Permobil website for further info!

     

    Hope this helps!!  I love my chair!
