Lobby Peak Options
automatically selected by the group control.
• Always keep at least car(s) in balanced mode: If you want to hold one or more cars in bal-
anced service mode (non lobby peak) when lobby peak is active, set that number of cars
here.
1. Set lobby door dwell time. (The time the doors stand open before attempting to close.)
2. During busy conditions, you can choose to employ load weigher monitoring or car call
monitoring to decrease door dwell time and prepare the car to leave the lobby:
• Use load weigher monitoring...: If you want the load weigher used to determine when
door dwell should be shortened. When the car weight reaches the "heavy load" setting
(car controller Load Weigher screen setting), the doors will begin closing in prepara-
tion to leave the lobby.
• Use car call monitoring...: If you want to monitor the number of calls placed in the car
to determine when door dwell should be shortened. When the number of car calls
placed reaches the quantity set here, the doors will begin closing in preparation to
leave the lobby.
3. If desired, you can set a (dynamic) percentage of the "in-use" cars to use for lobby peak
service at this lobby floor. (For example, this is useful if the group is split between two
lobbies and you want 50% of the available cars servicing one and 50% of the available
cars servicing the other.)
4. Choose to use only specific cars for lobby peak service and even set the priority in which
you want them used. (Higher position in list = use first.)
