Yes, it is different. By using a rotational tilt, the pivot point (or centre of rotation) rotates around the user's centre-of-gravity, whereas a traditional tilt-in-space rotates around a pivot point outside of the user's centre-of-gravity. Therefore, the Iris' rotational system allows for the shortest wheelbase possible without compromising stability. It also means that the caregiver will be able to position the user in tilt and back from tilt in a smooth and controlled manner.

The Quickie Iris has 3 tilt ranges. The standard 55 degree seat frame can be set up in -5 to 50, 0-55, and 5 to 60 degrees. The 40 degree seat frame can be set up as -5 to 35, 0 to 40, and 5 to 45. If pressure relief is the goal, the 60 degrees of tilt is the ideal solution; however, if an individual's needs are more for positioning relief, the 40 degree frame may be better.

Yes, the Zippie Zone offers an angle adjustable footplate that can flip-back out of the way for transfers.

Yes, the Quickie 2 Lite offers a similar Angle Adjustable Backrest that allows for multiple back angle positions and can be set to the height of the user's Posterior Superior Iliac Spine (PSIS).

Yes, the ovalized tubing used for the seat frame, axle plate and caster housing is more than just aesthetically pleasing! Ovalized tubing gives increased vertical strength which decreases frame flex and increases the chair's overall rigidity. A more rigid chair allows for more efficient propulsion.

Pulse - Rhythm - and - S636)

The VR2 is a basic system for customers that don't need the added Seating and Specialty Control Devices - with an Option for Tilt or Attendant Control. It has similar control shape to R-Net but has a Grey Joystick connector compared to the Yellow Connector the R-Net has. R-Net will give you all that you need from multi seating to Specialty Controls including Blue Tooth Mouse and IR Communication.

The Pulse and Rhythm both have A.S.A.P. seating which is width Adjustable.

The answer would be in left corner of any of the displays whether Omni R-Net or Color Joystick a Light Bulb Symbol comes up to distinguish which unit is operating. Furthermore to change between the two - hit the P or Profile button.

Through the IR Configuration tool - easy access by hitting at the same time the + and - buttons on the Omni R-Net. Once this is done a number of options can be found (list form) - at the bottom of the list is the IR Configuration tool. Simply by using any remote - the command from any IR device can be Learned - Saved - Turned On or Off - Deleted and set for use in IR mode. The front of the screen will give Visual and Tone detail and a check mark indicates a save an X means it was not saved.

No the VR2 is the standard joystick when talking about Pulse - Rhythm or S636 - only as of recent months have we added this feature to our R-Net Electronics in which we have a Copy Rights for.

J3 Shell widths are available in 14", 16", 18", and 20". The hardware on each shell can expand up to 2" in width. This effectively covers a width range from 14" to 22" wide.

Spine-align components optimize the J3 back's ability to support varying anatomical shapes and provide prolonged sitting tolerance. The J3 Spine-align assessment kit contains over 32 different components.
Several models are also compatible with laterals, headrests and support straps

Absolutely! JAY Configurfit has designed a 125 degree offset lateral bracket to interface with the contour of the J3 backrest. Contact Customer Service for additional information.

Yes indeed they can. In fact there is a positioning kit that can be used to determine what positioning components work best. From medial thigh support to lateral thigh supports, hip guides and pelvic obliquity build ups, we have it covered

Ideally we strive to have a ˝ inch of the protective medium beneath the lowest point of immersion in the pelvic loading area. Less then a ˝ inch could lead to bottoming out and more than a ˝ inch could mean that the client is not optimally immersed.
