FIRE SERVICE PHASE 1 - ALTERNATE
Description: The car is returning to an alternate fire return landing. The FRS input is low, the FRA
input is high or FRAON is active.
Troubleshooting: Inspect the fire sensors (especially the main floor sensor) and the Fire Phase I
switch wiring. For some fire codes including ASME, the Fire Phase I switch must be turned to the
BYPASS position and then back to OFF to clear the fire service status once activated.
FIRE SERVICE PHASE 1 - MAIN
Description: The car is returning to the main fire return landing. The FRS input is low or the FRON
or FRON2 inputs are high.
Troubleshooting: Inspect the fire sensors and the Fire Phase I switch wiring. For some fire codes
including ASME, the Fire Phase I switch must be turned to the BYPASS position and then back to
OFF to clear the fire service status once activated.
FIRE SERVICE PHASE 2
Description: The FCS controller input is ON.
Troubleshooting: Inspect the phase 2 switch and wiring. In some cases, to exit Fire Service
Phase 2, the car must be at the fire floor at which Fire Phase 2 was activated, the doors must be
fully open, and the phase 2 switch must be off (the FCOFF input must be activated) to get out of

Troubleshooting: Inspect the Door Closed Limit circuitry and wiring. When this error is gener-
ated, the car is not allowed to run.
