Theres several.
You can defeat the sensor / microwsitch mechanically although not having a bounder I cant tell you exactly how.
Or you can disable it in software, not sure if thats going to need OEM or Dealer verion though, again because I always avoided that system because there was no OEM solution available at that time. And now the only person that has a fix is not answering his email aparently.

I think my only option is to find the microswitch and disable it. To do it in the software ill need OEM. When I ordered the chair the guy at 21st Century Scientific said that the Linx was the most advanced thats why i got linx electronics. But what good is it without full access its pointless. And the more advanced features like the mouse mover id never use anyway. I would rather have had proven reliability and full OEM access with R-net. But no use in crying over spilt milk. Hopefully I can get OEM access in the future with patch

The Linx may be the most advanced system (although I doubt it!), it's also extremely difficult to get OEM access. The R-net system is much better and you can get OEM access easier. This is why I always avoid chairs with the Linx system.

The thing I keep telling everyone is: Stop listening to "experts" like service techs, reps, supposed manufacturers, dealers, and esp YouTube "experts...

There is a spring-loaded switch that is under the seat.
I put a wire tie to hold it from switching. This is on their
stand up chair but 10 mph standing up would be a no-no.
