12.6.2 Parameter Menu Two Description
PENALTIES:
GENERATOR OFF:
This value is a disadvantage given to a car that is parked with its MG set turned off when the
dispatcher is assigning hall calls. This should be set to "0" for SCR drive systems. In general, the
more cars that are available to dispatch the higher this penalty should be set (less need to turn on
the generator in a car with its generator off). For generator systems, multiply the number of cars by
two for a good starting point value. Valid entries range from 0 to 10, with a default value of 5.
THIS CAR UP:
This is a disadvantage given to the lobby car when calculating the best car to assign to a call.
Larger values will cause the lobby car to remain in the lobby and another car in the system to be
assigned hall calls. Valid entries range from 0 to 5, with a default value of 1.
NEXT CAR UP:
A disadvantage given to the next car up when calculating the best car to assign a hall call to. Valid
entries range from 0 to 5, with a default value of 2.
HALTED TIME:
The amount of time required for a car to halt (decelerate) and open and close its doors. Valid
entries range from 5 to 30, with a default value of 10. A system with slow door operators should be
set to a larger value.
ADVANTAGES:
IN LINE CALL:
An advantage given to a car that must pass a hall call in its present direction of travel. Valid entries
range from 0 to 10, with a default value of 5. Set this value higher if you would like to ensure that
the cars will stop rather than pass a hall call.
CALL COINCIDENCE:
An advantage given to a car that has a car call at the floor for which a hall call is registered. Valid
entries range from 0 to 10, with a default value of 5.
DOORS OPEN SIMULTANEOUSLY Y/N.
This effects cars on Automatic Operation only. Set to "Yes" to have both front and rear doors open
together.
NOTE: This parameter and the parameter in the car's parameter screen must both be set to "Yes"
to have both front and rear doors open simultaneously.
DOOR OPEN TIME LOBBY UP
This can be set from 1 second to 98 seconds. A value of 99 seconds will cause the door to remain
open constantly when it is assigned the "This Car Up" status. The default is 10 seconds.
DOOR OPEN TIME IN LOBBY AFTER A CAR CALL
This can be set from 1 second to 98 seconds and is used to shorten the lobby door time after a car
call is entered or after the car receives an assignment. The default is 5 seconds.
DOOR TIME MED EM RECALL SEC:
This parameter sets the amount of time (in seconds) that the door will remain open before going on
Phase II of Medical Emergency. When it expires the car will close its door, go off Medical Phase I
and rejoin the group (the Phase II key switch was not turned on before the time expired).
ST
MED PH 1 OVERRIDES FIRE PH 1 IF TRIG 1
This parameter tells the dispatcher whether cars on Medical Emergency Phase I should respond to
