Responsible Entity Red Milawa Pty Ltd T/A Magic Mobility
Reason/Issue Magic Mobility has been notified of a component issue resulting in the direct actuator control switching, through the jack input socket, to not function correctly.
This issue may cause either an incorrect switch/actuator operation or an inoperable external switch/actuator. At the time of dispatch from Magic Mobility, any wheelchairs fitted with this joystick did not require the use of the jack input socket. The wheelchairs performance is not compromised in its despatched state.
However, if in the future, a client wishes to use the jack for a switch, then the jack may not work correctly. This issue would be detected immediately and therefore poses no safety risk.
