iControl Features

MCE designed iControl to provide:
• Compliance: Fully ASME A17.1 - 2000 compliant. CE and CSA certified.
• Safety: Two independent processors verify all safety checks. Safety A is a microprocessor
(firmware) and Safety B is a PLD.
• Support: Outstanding MCE Technical Support at regional and factory level, electronically
or on site.
• Reduced Installation Expense: Simplified installation for minimum time and expense.
• Reliability: Solid-state construction, minimized point-to-point wiring, integrated design,
and non-volatile FLASH memory contribute to exemplary reliability.
• Scalability: Flexible capacity and system configuration, scalable control, networked com-
munications capability, and expandable I/O adapt to future requirements.
• Serviceability:
• All user parameters fully field programmable.
• Secure on site and remote access to user parameters.
• Supports multiple, simultaneous iView connections for near real-time, diagnostic
coordination and support.
• Real-time status display.
• Single point location for system control switches.
• At-a-glance, LED display of 15 most important system functions.
• Virtual oscilloscope iView display.
• Informative, near real-time, iView hoistway display.
• Report generation.
• On line help for iView.
• Complete hard copy and electronic (pdf) documentation.
• Reduced Maintenance Requirements:
• Minimal point-to-point wiring.
• Reliable, D-subminiature component interconnection.
• Slide-track mounted I/O boards for easy addition or substitution with no reprogram-
ming required.
• Maintenance-free landing system.
• Cartop, single-point wiring interconnect, converting discrete car signals to economical,
dependable, serial communications.
• Tuned Acceleration/Deceleration Pattern for passenger comfort and maximum efficiency.
• Self-optimizing technology — the system adapts without intervention, fine-tuning perfor-
mance over time as use patterns are learned.
