MK6 Technical Education Power Wheelchair Alternative Drives 4 Simple Rules for Adding Components (Applies to MKIV, MK5 & MK6i Systems) 1. Only ONE device with an On/Off Switch (display or joystick) is allowed. 2. Only ONE device with a Display (LED lights or full LCD screen) on the chair is allowed. 3. Only Rehab Systems (Expandable) allow additional components or alternative driver controls into the system. 4. All Digital Driver Controls require an interface box (either ASL or Sip-n-Puff/DI) to plug into the controller. 1 MK6i Controllers No need to replace the controller MK660 ACC: 2-Pole Motors with when upgrading from a Consumer Power seating to an Rehab system. MK675 ACC: 2-Pole Motors with Simply exchange the driver Power seating control. MK690: 4-Pole Motors without Power Seating MK690 ACC: 4-Pole Motors with Power Seating MK6i True Track Controllers MK6 G-Trac: 4-Pole Motors with or without Power Seating MK6TT: True Track GB Motors with Power seating MK6 Controllers MK6i Controller (Same connections for MK6i & MK5 NX) 2 This indicates that this controller is “w/ACC”. A connector can be added to power an actuator directly from this port.
