Count" display. See Figure 3-6. From this screen, Down Slowdown (DS) count, the floor count and Up
Slowdown (US) count can be set.
Press UP or DOWN to access the desired floor and then press ENTER to go into edit mode. Use the
UP and DOWN buttons to position the cursor ">" to the desired DS slowdown or US slowdown count,
and then press ENTER again to edit that count. After the value is changed, press ENTER to save the
value. Press MODE to exit out of this menu. The slowdown counts can be changed for any floor.

3.4.3 Adjust the Stop

When at floor level, the "UL, DL, & DZ" LEDs should be on. If the elevator continually tries to seek floor
level by leveling up and down, try the following steps to correct the problem:
•
Reduce the leveling and re-leveling velocity by adjusting the leveling speed adjustment on the
valve.
•
Increase the APS Dead Zone parameter in the Car Motion menu.
If the car stops hard, readjust the final stop on the valve. Again, refer to the adjustment procedure of the
valve manufacturer. Make sure the "Soft Stop Time" parameter is set to about 1.5 seconds.
The floor level positions are set by placing the car at the exact floor location and then selecting to learn
the floor position. When the floor position is learned, the count value is automatically placed in the
Hoistway Table as a count that is read from the tape.
The UL and DL locations are calculated to be 8 inches apart + or – the APS Dead Zone distance
parameter. No door zone magnet is used. An exact stop can be achieved with setting the car to stop
on pulse counts.
With "Stop On Pos Cnt = 1", adjustment for the Up or Down Level Distance is found in the "UL & DL
Distance" menu in "Hoistway Tables". See Figure 3-7. The Pulses/Inch (PPI=50.8) is also display on
this screen. Be familiar with how much each pulse will affect the stop.
The variables "Dn Level" and "Up Level" are used as the number of pulse counts to continue moving
before issuing a stop sequence after the exact level position of the door zone is reached (UL and DL
both on). "Dn Level" is used when the car is running down and "Up Level" when the car is running up.
Changing the "Dn Level" and the "Up Level" variables will change the leveling distance at all floors.
