This article explains how to program both driving and seating modes in Ability Drive®. The mode switch is enabled in the Ability Drive® app and can be toggled on or off from the settings screen. When mode switch is set to On, the mode button (crossing arrows) will appear on the drive screen. ATPs must ensure that the Enhanced Display is mounted next to the eye gaze device and in clear view of the user. 


Technical support is available Monday - Friday, 7:00am - 3:00pm PST. Please call (425)242-3902 or email support@tolttechnologies.com.

Note: Ability Drive® is not safe to use with QLogic 2.0 based wheelchairs from 2017 and earlier.
