1.6.8 Attendant Service Mode

The attendant service mode is initiated by placing the key operated attendant switch located in the car
operating panel to the on position. Attendant mode permits operation of the car with an attendant. This
mode performs the following operations:
•
The doors open automatically and stay open until closed by the attendant.
•
Closing the doors requires a momentary pressure on the door close button, or the up or down
buttons located in the car operating panel.
•
Hall initiated calls are answered unless there is constant pressure on the bypass button.
•
Hall lanterns and gongs are enabled.
•
The direction of preference can be specified by momentary pressure on the up or down buttons
located in the car operating panel.

1.6.9 Code Blue Hospital Service Mode

Code blue hospital service mode is initiated by turning one of the code blue switches, located at each
floor where medical emergency service is required, to the on position. A car is selected to respond to
the code blue call. That car will perform the following:
•
Cancel all car calls
•
Any hall calls previously assigned will be transferred to another car.
•
If traveling toward the code blue call, it will proceed nonstop to the code blue call floor.
•
If traveling away from the code blue call, it will slow down and stop at the nearest floor, maintain
doors closed, reverse direction and proceed nonstop to the code blue call floor.
•
If at a floor other than the code blue call floor, the elevator will close the doors and proceed
nonstop to the code blue call floor.
•
Once at the code blue call floor, the doors will open and remain open.
•
The code blue in car switch located in the car operating panel must then be turned to the on
position. If the code blue in car switch is not turned to the on position within 60 seconds from
the time the doors reach full open on the code blue call floor, the car will revert back to normal
operation.
•
Upon activation of the key switch, it will allow the car to accept a car call for any floor, close the
doors, and proceed nonstop to the floor desired.
•
The return of the code blue in car key switch to the normal position will restore the car to normal
service.

1.6.10 Fire Service Phase I Mode

Fire service phase I is initiated when the primary smoke sensor is activated, or the fire key switch
located in the hall station on the primary return floor is turned to the on position. The primary return floor
is usually the lobby floor but could be another landing if it better serves the needs of emergency
personnel when fighting a fire or performing rescues. When fire service phase I is enabled:
•
The fire emergency return light illuminates, and the fire buzzer sounds.
•
The emergency stop switch is disabled when the door closes (depending on code requirement).
•
The car travels to the primary return floor without answering any calls, then parks with the door
open. The fire buzzer turns off, but the fire emergency return light stays illuminated.
