Any Stannah dealers?

Anybody on here a Stannah dealer or can get parts?
I’m after a chair board for a 260 -

Any stannah branch will sell you one I’m sure

ianbParticipant
Is it the main pcb or a swivel pcb for the chair and if the latter what model of chair?

northern-mobilityParticipant
Its the board that is screwed onto the back of the backrest which the remotes work through, I believe it’s called a 868 board
I contacted the Warrington branch yesterday and they are sending me account forms but if anybody has one knocking around even second hand I could do with it sharpish
Cheers

2 types mate a 868 chair board or an 868 chinge board . The latter is for power hinge models. There are also 3 different frequency models 418 433 and 868 but they are cleary labelled

I’m assuming you have tried reprogramming the board

northern-mobilityParticipant
I have the chinge board on a 260 but I re-installed it on a standard track so although I got the chair running by by-passing the board I now can’t get the remotes to work so hence the need for a 868 board
Stannah have been really good to be fair and are sending me a new board, although he never mentioned anything about different frequencies so slightly worried nowThanks for your help

ianbParticipant
If its 2002 onwards I think it will be 868 so you will be fine mate.

Why didn’t you say that it had been moved from a hinge track in the first place instead of asking for parts – we don’t bite! much
It just needs reprogramming, if it has come off a hinged track then it is looking for the hinge enabled signal.
Move the lift off of a charge point. Turn it off put a link in on the receiver board across the two pins, then turn on go to each remote and press for three seconds.
Turn off then remove link and test – board should be programmed for non hinge setup. -

Hence the reason for asking for parts
Apparently the only way around it would be to wire in the hinge control box as well and short out hinge enable so the lift thinks it installed on a hinge but it would have been a messy Install so decided to change the chair board instead
So if anybody needs a chinge board in the future give me a shout 😉

​The advice you got was correct 😉

If you want to save some money as chair pcbs are expensive with abit of knowledge the hinge kit can be converted to run with out the hinge box or spending any money.

Cheers, I know where to come if I get the same scenario in the future £150 for the board from Stannah, still better than £260 for a second hand one from Platinum
