Would anyone be able to help me with an Acorn curved 180 stairlift Installation Manual?
Thanks

I haven’t found an installation manual, but this may be a good programming manual in the post by chaz.

Seem to be for the newer controller board I have (Acorn curved 180 T565 PCB control board).
My chair will run fine from the top to near the bottom, but it seem to think it’s at the bottom and slows and stops. It just needs to be programmed, but I can’t get it to the programming mode. The battery was unplugged for a few months, but the memory is supposed to be nonvolatile, so it probably has the old program.
My chair flashes j3 when I drive it below the top charge point. When I hold down all three safety switches on the footrest, it never advances to display U1. It just says E1 all the time. If I power it off and on, it will flash A1, but still doesn’t advance to U1 when holding down the three footrest safety switches. When it moves again, it goes back to J3.
I can’t get it to the P1, so I’ll probably have to have Acorn come program it for me. Frustrating.
If anyone knows how to get past this, please let me know.

On the later version of the Acorn 180 you need to hold the bottom foot rest plus both the side safety switched to get into program mode and not the bottom and side foot rest switches as shown in a lot of publications.
I found the below site the best & most concise information for programming.

That was it. Using the more recent programming instructions, it went to P1. Thank you.
You just have to be careful when downloading the instructions because the site is trying to get you to install a bunch of other stuff that you don’t want.
