SmarTRAQ dramatically improves door oper- ation regardless of lobby door mass and wind loading. SmarTRAQ is A17.1, CSA-B44.1 compli- ant. SmarTRAQ provides flexibility: •...
SmarTRAQ Product Description The SmarTRAQ limitless, closed-loop, door operator includes a permanent-magnet, brushless motor with a built-in encoder and a microprocessor-based inverter drive. The compact inverter drive enclosure mounts easily on the elevator car. The motor replaces the original motor when re-using existing operator packages or mounts to the new operator package when the complete door operator is being replaced or newly installed.
SmarTRAQ SmarTRAQ Models To support a wide selection of door operators, SmarTRAQ motor configurations include: Figure 1.1 Motor Configurations Model 4151-F Model 4157-F Otis 7300 Otis 6970 Westinghouse A, B, and BB2 Model 4151-B1 Armor C4 GAL (all models) Haughton T and T1...
8. Connect the encoder cable and power wires from the motor to the inverter drive as shown in the wiring diagram. Please refer to “SmarTRAQ Wiring Diagram” on page 1-6. 9. Complete wiring connections between the inverter drive enclosure and the elevator con- troller as shown in the wiring diagram.
SmarTRAQ Adjustments SmarTRAQ Adjustments Adjustment consists of: • Checking motor rotation • Learning Full Open and Full Close positions • Verifying Operation • Adjusting parameters Checking Motor Rotation Motor control connections from inverter drive enclosure terminals TB2 and TB3 to the motor assume clockwise motor rotation when elevator doors are closing.
Door Open and Door Close Limits are learned during an automated learn process as current rises when doors reach full open or full close. Once limits are learned, SmarTRAQ is able to dis- tinguish between an obstruction and full open or full close positions. DOL (Door Open Limit) and DCL (Door Close Limit) are learned only within the last 3/8”...
SmarTRAQ Adjustments Running the Learn Operation 1. Verify that elevator doors are closed. 2. Place Local/Remote switch in the Local position. 3. Turn on power. For a few seconds, dashes will be displayed on the LED display. Then, the dash on the right hand display will disappear.
SmarTRAQ Adjusting Parameters All door operator adjustments are made by selecting and changing parameters using inverter drive programmer switches. All parameter values are numeric, from 0 to 31. The higher the number, the greater the parameter value. Note Parameter values can only be changed or viewed when elevator doors are Full Closed and Door Close Limit is OPEN.

SmarTRAQ Adjustments Table 1.4 Inverter Drive Parameters Parameter Description Heavy Door High Closing Speed: Higher value = More speed. This value must be lower than U3. Heavy Door Close Slowdown Position: Position where doors begin to reduce high closing speed and decelerate to low closing speed. Higher value = High speed reduces nearer to full close position.
• Encoder Cable Door Open and Door Close Logic SmarTRAQ is designed to allow power to be applied indefinitely to hold doors open or closed. With some controller designs, Otis comes to mind, a single relay or single family of relays is energized to open doors and then that same relay or relays are de-energized to close doors.
Limit #1 and Limit #2 must not be used to remove the door open and door close signal to the SmarTRAQ drive. Doors must reach full open position and generate DOL electronically before removing door open signal to drive. Doors must reach full closed position and gener- ate DCL electronically before removing door close signal to drive.
“Enter” button allows you to change the parameter. Stall Protection SmarTRAQ has built-in stall protection in both directions of travel. In the open direction, an internal stall timer is set for one minute. If the door open signal to the drive is activated for more than one minute, the drive will automatically shut off.
Power Up When power is applied to the SmarTRAQ Drive, the GREEN LED on the main board is ON. The RED LED on the main board should remain OFF. The Programmer board will display a SINGLE BAR and REMOTE or LOCAL led is ON.
SmarTRAQ Motor Synchronization If power up is successful, the door operator is ready to synchronize the motor. 1. Select LOCAL on the programming board. 2. Press Open/Close switch to provide a momentary OPEN or CLOSE command. The motor will cog to synchronize the rotor. Time required for this operation varies, but should be less than 10 seconds.
Troubleshooting IF… Doors reach close position but the DCL signal is not generated, there is probably slip- page somewhere in the mechanical transmission system and the motor is still turning while the doors are stopped: 1. Check belt tension. Tighten as necessary to prevent slippage. Grip-notch type belts may be required.

SmarTRAQ IF… During opening, doors reach full open and push up against bumper but do not reverse, there is probably slippage somewhere in the mechanical transmission system and the motor is still turning while doors are stopped: 1. If possible, stop motor by hand. Doors should now reverse and close. If not, turn off power and attempt to open doors again.
Troubleshooting First Open/Close After Cycling Power After power is cycled, and doors are in full close position with DCL active, an OPEN command should be given using local command on programmer board. Doors will move in open direction at REDUCED SPEED. If a CLOSE command is given before DOL is generated, doors will move in close direction at REDUCED SPEED.
SmarTRAQ Opening and Closing Open and closing operations are accomplished by setting parameters for: • High Speed Open and Close speeds using “U1/ U3”. • Low Speed Open and Closing speeds using “U2/ U4”. • Initial Open speed and distance using “PL” and “U0”.
Troubleshooting IF… Doors bump when opening or closing: 1. Slowdown points “P2” or “P7” are too near full open or close positions. Reduce “P2” or “P7”. 2. Deceleration values “A1” or “A3” are too low. Increase “A1” or “A3”. 3. Low speeds “U2” or “U4” are too high. Reduce “U2” or “U4”. 4.
SmarTRAQ IF… During reversals, doors stop and reverse too rapidly, producing mechanical vibrations and bumps: 1. Reduce “Ab” until reversal is smooth. 2. Check mechanical system and correct as required. IF… During reversals, it takes too long for doors to stop and reverse: 1.
