Verifying A One Floor Run - MCi iControl User Manual

Verifying a One Floor Run

During a one-floor run, observe the following:
• When the car starts, note that on the Hoistway display, the position indicator changes to
the next floor just before reaching the desired floor.
• The car will decelerate to a point 6" (152.4 mm) before the destination floor where the
Level Up or Level Down sensor will activate the associated indicator. This can be observed
on the Setup > Floor Heights > Learn tab.
• The car will continue until it reaches a point 3" (76.2 mm) before the floor, then the Door
Zone input will activate. The Door Zone Rear input will be active if the floor has rear doors.
• The elevator will continue to level into the floor and stop. The final leveling speed should
be set from 2 to 8 fpm (0.01 to 0.04 m/s). Your actual speed will be a fraction of that since
Pattern scaling is set to 50% at this time.
1. On the iView Virtual Oscilloscope:
• Set Test point 1 to Pattern Command
• Set Test point 2 to Speed Feedback
(8-volts equals contract speed)
2. Run the car between floors to any intermediate landings (avoid activating terminal
switches).
3. Observe that the car starts, accelerates, then decelerates into the floor and stops. If the
car overruns a floor, the relevel function will be activated. The Leveling Speed on the
first approach to a floor and the Releveling Speed (if releveling is necessary) are two sep-
arately programmable values. These values are set on the Configuration > Pattern >
Common tab.
