Abstract

A bed system and a method of operating a bed system is disclosed, the bed system comprising a controller device, a bed frame, and a mattress assembly pivotably mounted on the bed frame for pivoting the mattress assembly about a pivot axis to form a pivot angle between the mattress assembly and a longitudinal axis of the bed frame, the mattress assembly configured to be arranged in a first position and a second position and comprising a back part, a seat part and a leg part, wherein a back normal of the back part and the pivot axis forms a back angle, a seat normal of the seat part and the pivot axis forms a seat angle, and a leg normal of the leg part and the pivot axis forms a leg angle, the method comprising receiving and determining a user input to the controller device; in accordance with a determination that the user input is a first primary user input, moving the mattress assembly to a pivoted intermediate position; and in accordance with a determination that the user input is a first secondary user input, moving the mattress assembly from the pivoted intermediate position to the second position, wherein moving the mattress assembly from a pivoted intermediate position to the second position comprises tilting the back part and moving the mattress assembly to a second height.
