Safety Precautions
Danger
This equipment is designed to comply with ASME A17.1, National Electrical Code, CE, and CAN/
CSA-B44.1/ASME-A17.5 and must be installed by a qualified contractor. It is the responsibility of the
contractor to make sure that the final installation complies with all local codes and is installed in a
safe manner.
This equipment is suitable for use on a circuit capable of delivering not more than 10,000 rms sym-
metrical amperes, 600 volts maximum. The three-phase AC power supply to the Drive Isolation
Transformer used with this equipment must originate from a fused disconnect switch or circuit
breaker sized in conformance to all applicable national, state, and local electrical codes in order to
provide the necessary motor branch circuit protection for the Drive Unit and motor. Incorrect motor
branch circuit protection will void the warranty and may create a hazardous condition.
Proper grounding is vitally important to safe and successful operation. Bring your ground wire to the
system subplate. You must choose the proper conductor size and minimize the resistance to ground
by using the shortest possible routing. See National Electrical Code Article 250 or the applicable local
electrical code.
Before applying power to the controller, physically check all the power resistors and other compo-
nents located in the resistor cabinet and inside the controller. Components loosened during ship-
ment may cause damage.
For proper operation of the AC Drive Unit in your controller, you must make sure that: 1) A direct
solid ground is provided in the machine room to properly ground the controller and motor. Indirect
grounds such as the building structure or a water pipe may not provide proper grounding and could
act as an antenna to radiate RFI noise, thus disturbing sensitive equipment in the building. Improper
grounding may also render any RFI filter ineffective. 2) The incoming power to the controller and the
outgoing power wires to the motor are in their respective, separate, grounded conduits.
This equipment may contain voltages as high as 1000 volts. Use extreme caution. Do not touch any
components, resistors, circuit boards, power devices, or electrical connections without ensuring that
high voltage is not present.
Environmental Considerations
Keep the machine room clean.
Controllers are generally in NEMA 1 enclosures.
Do not install the controller in a dusty area.
Do not install the controller in a carpeted area.
Keep room temperature between 32 and 104 degrees F (0 to 40 degrees C).
Prevent condensation on the equipment.
Do not install the controller in a hazardous location or where excessive amounts of
vapors or chemical fumes may be present.
Make certain that power line fluctuations are within plus or minus 10% of proper value.

System Features
Motion 4000 design incorporates:
Solid state implementation of redundancy and proofing requirements, eliminating relays
whenever possible to improve service life and reliability.
Retention of the simple LCD/keypad programming interface used on earlier MCE pro- 1
grammable controls but with the addition of a hand-held interface (mPAC) that can be
plugged in to any system CAN connector.
Easy software updates Internet download through a PC to the hand-held user interface,
MCE SD card, or EEPROM replacement.
CAN Bus: Circuit boards and major components all communicate through light weight,
serial CAN Bus connections. Communication between major system components (i.e.,
controller to car, controller to hall calls, etc.) uses shielded, twisted-pair cables connected
to pluggable terminals (CAN).
ASME A17.1/CSA B44 compliant throughout.
Field connections: Field connections are handled by Universal I/O boards. The boards are
factory set to handle 24V, 48V, 110V, or 120V AC or DC inputs. This allows a single board
design to service all common inputs.
Positioning: Perforated steel tape (LS-EDGE) or encoded magnetic tape (ELGO).
Minimized hoistway peripherals: Motion 4000 design allows slowdown, emergency termi-
nal, and hoistway access limit switches to be eliminated. These switches may exist as vir-
tual switches in system software.
Serial hall call: Motion 4000 may use a serial hall call system for easier field wiring. The
riser drop provides CAN communication and power to the fixtures. (Discrete hall call wir-
ing is supported through Universal I/O boards.)
Serial car panel option: Discrete signals from car panel buttons may be serialized for easy
connection to the controller via CAN bus through the cartop interface.
Light weight traveler and hoistway cabling: Serial communication allows low traveler and
hoistway cable conductor counts.
Optional monitoring capabilities using mView, iMonitor, and iReport software.
Optional integration with Building Management Software using BMS-LINK.
Optional Jail Services application for detention center operation.
(MRL) Optional passenger rescue system provides input from a cartop mounted camera
and a rescue control panel with LCD display to allow a technician to safely drift the car to a
landing in the absence of commercial or emergency power. Once at the landing, doors
must be opened manually.
Optional Traction Auxiliary Power Supply (TAPS) provides automated return of the car to
a landing and automated door opening in the absence of commercial power. Power is pro-
vided via an integrated UPS/battery system and requires no generator.
Note
If the job uses a TAPS system and a TORQMAX F5 drive, drive parameter LF.61 must be set to

Landing and Positioning
Motion 4000 uses one of two landing systems; encoded
magnetic tape or perforated steel tape and magnets.
The ELGO encoded steel tape system uses a 1/2-inch wide,
Gray code, magnetically encoded tape, hall-effect sensors,
and two independent sensor heads (in a single housing) for
absolute position control under all powered conditions. The
tape provides a unique code for every 1mm of travel. In addi-
tion to position, simple distance-over-time calculation pro-
vides extremely accurate speed feedback. A third, also
independent system provides speed feedback directly from
the hoist motor.
The LS-EDGE positioning system uses hall-effect sensors and perforated steel tape to report
position as the car moves through the hoistway. 5.5-inch magnets are used at each door zone;
one row for front openings, a second for rear openings. The system auto-corrects at each door
zone to prevent error accumulation.
LS-EDGE uses capacitor-stored power and non-volatile memory to retain position information
in the event of a power failure, continuing to capture information for 22 seconds after power
loss and storing the final reading for use after power restoration. Mechanical final limit, ETS,
and ETSL switches are used but normal terminal switches may be virtual, based on position, or
mechanical depending upon specific controller capabilities. The LS-EDGE system may be used
with MCE iControl or Motion 4000 elevator controls.
Load Weigher
Motion 4000 typically uses an EMCO rope strain gauge for load weighing. The controller uses
the load weigher input to determine overload conditions and also in conjunction with car call
registrations and photo-eye information to make anti-nuisance related decisions.

Hoistway
For serial hall call, Motion 4000 communicates with hall calls and similar buttons or key
switches through an independent CAN Bus for reliability and easy installation. The hall bus pro-
vides a CAN signal path and 24 V power for the fixtures.
An SC-3HN three-input hall node board allows discrete hall call buttons and indicators to be
connected along a CAN bus to provide serial hall call capability for Motion 4000, greatly reduc-
ing the number of conductors necessary in hoistway wiring bundles. Please refer to SC-3HN
Three Input Serial Hall Call Node Board on page 5-73.
Discrete hall calls are supported using HC-UIO Universal I/O boards. Please refer to HC-UIO-
2 Universal Input/Output Board on page 5-56.
Normal Operation
Normal operation is the default elevator operating mode. In this mode, cars are accepting hall
calls and servicing car calls as determined by Basic Features Menu and other operating menu
selections. Please refer to Basic Features Menu on page 4-13. Cars are running at contract
speed as affected by short or multi-floor run performance curves.
Inspection Operation
In inspection, a car operates at the set inspection speed using continuous pressure up and down
buttons or switches. The car will stop as soon as the buttons are released. Inspection operation
may be controlled from four locations. For safety purposes, locations have a priority:
Cartop
In-Car
Access
Machine Room Inspection
Cartop Inspection
In this mode, the car is operated by pushing the cartop UP or DOWN and ENABLE buttons
simultaneously. These buttons are generally provided through a third-party inspection station
wired to inspection operation inputs in the elevator controller. There will also be a key switch
that enables/disables inspection operation.
Mode Entry
Bring the car to the access floor
Enable hoistway access operation using the in-car switch
Move the car down using the hall controls until the access limit is opened
Set the cartop switch to Inspection and access the cartop.
Use ENABLE and UP or DOWN buttons to run the car from the cartop.

In Car Inspection
In this mode, the car is operated using a locked subpanel in the COP that provides the inspec-
tion key switch and direction buttons. (Top and bottom car call buttons may be used as direc-
tion buttons as well.)
Mode Entry
Bring the car to the desired floor.
Place the car on in-car inspection.
Use UP or DOWN buttons to run the car.
Mode Entry
Bring the car to the access floor
Place the car on hoistway access using the in-car switch.
Move the car using the hall way switch until the access limit is opened
Top access must prevent the car from moving down beyond the point where the cross-
head is even with the hoistway entrance sill.
Bottom access must prevent the car from moving up beyond the point where the bot-
tom of the toe guard is even with the hoistway entrance header
Mode Entry
Place the car on Machine Room Inspection
(Mode Switch to Inspection).
Ensure that car and hoistway doors are closed
and locked.
Run the car using the ENABLE and UP or
DOWN Directional switch positions.
Attendant Operation
Attendant operation allows an operator riding in the car to run the car, choosing run direction,
and which hall calls to answer. In this mode:
Doors open automatically when the car is stopped in a door zone.
The attendant closes the door by pressing and holding the door close button, a car call but- 1
ton, or either car direction (UP/DOWN) button (UPI/DNI input: Please refer to Spare
Inputs Menu on page 4-27.)
The attendant chooses the direction using run up (UNI) or down (DNI) buttons.
The car will stop at the next car or hall call in the direction of travel. Holding the bypass
button (NSI input) in will cause hall calls to be bypassed until the button is released. An
annunciator panel is required if in-car visibility of hall calls is required.
The elevator will level into the destination floor automatically, then open its doors.
During Attendant operation, load weigher inputs are ignored.
Mode Entry
Call the car to a floor.
Enter the car and activate the Attendant mode key switch (enables the ATS, Attendant Ser-
vice, controller input).
Independent Service
In this mode:
The car is removed from hall call dispatching
Doors open automatically when the car is stopped in a door zone
The operator presses and holds the door close button to close doors
The operator chooses direction and initiates the run by placing car calls (first placed deter-
mines direction of run).
The elevator will level into destination floors automatically and open its doors.
Hall arrival lanterns or jamb mounted arrival lanterns are inoperative.
Mode Entry
Call the car to a floor.
Enter the car and activate the Independent mode key switch (IND input HC-CTL-2 board).

Sabbath Operation
Sabbath operation is a special mode that sets the car to consecutively service specified landings
(and openings if the car has front and rear doors) during up and down travel with no hall or car
call buttons being pressed. The car will begin from the bottom of the hoistway, travelling up and
stopping at each designated stop and opening its doors to allow exit or entry. When the doors
close, the car will travel to the next designated stop up the hoistway and repeat door operation.
This will continue until the car reaches the top designated stop, at which point it will travel
down the hoistway operating in the same manner.
Initiate: Sabbath operation is initiated when the spare input SAB is activated.
Operation: In accordance with the description above and servicing stops set through the
Sabbath Operation parameter in the Extra Features menu. Please refer to Extra Features
Menu Options on page 4-44.
Hospital Service
Please refer to HOSPITAL EMERG. OPERATION? on page 4-48. Hospital service allows a car
to be recalled to any of one or more assigned floors using a call button at the floor. Once at the
floor, the car may be boarded by medical personnel and placed in restricted service, using an in-
car switch, to respond to a medical emergency.
Recall: Floors and openings (if the car has front and rear doors) are designated as hospital
1
service through Hospital Emerg Operation parameters in the Extra Features Menu. Please
refer to Extra Features Menu Options on page 4-44. When a designated call button is
activated, the car will recall to the floor.
The car will immediately cancel all registered calls, move to the call floor, and open its
doors.
A Timer Menu function, Hospital Emergency Timer, allows a timer to be set for a
range of up to 10 minutes. After a car recalls to the designated floor, it will remain
there until the timer expires, after which it will return itself to automatic passenger
service if the in-car, hospital service switch has not been activated.
Operation: Once the in-car switch (HOSP input assigned through the Spare Inputs Menu)
is activated, the car is in restricted service and will accept only calls assigned through the
car operating panel.
When the in-car switch is deactivated, the car returns to normal service.
Seismic Operation
Please refer to EARTHQUAKE OPERATION? on page 4-51. Seismic operation is entered into
automatically if counterweight derailment is detected (CWI input) or if the seismic sensor input
(SSI) is activated. If the CWI input is triggered, the car comes to a full stop, moves at reduced
speed (150 FPM or less) to the nearest floor in the direction away from the counterweight, lev-
els, opens its doors to allow passengers to exit, then shuts down.
If only the SSI input is activated, the car will continue to the next available floor, open its doors,
and shut down. A programmable option is available to allow the car to run on normal, auto-
matic operation or fire service at reduced speed (150FPM or less).
Mode Exit
After ensuring that the hoistway is clear and all equipment is undamaged and operating
properly:
Press the EQ Reset button on the Motion Processor Interface (MPI) board.
Modifiers
Some fire codes allow the car to be run in fireman service even though the CWI or SSI input has
been activated.

Motion 4000 Traction Elevator Control
Generator Backup
When power is lost, the elevator will come to a full stop. When emergency/backup power comes
on line, the elevator will be moved at programmed speed to a designated recall floor and the
doors will open to allow passengers to exit. The elevator will remain at the recall floor unless it
is designated to run under generator power.
TAPS Backup
When power is lost, the elevator will come to a full stop. When battery power becomes available,
the elevator will be moved at reduced speed to the nearest floor in the direction determined by
TAPS settings. At the floor, the doors will cycle, allowing passengers to exit, and then close. The
car will remain out of service until commercial power is again available and the TAPS unit
switches the car from battery power back to normal power. Please refer to the MCE TAPS man-
ual or data sheets for detailed information.
Car Recall
Inputs may be provided to allow the car to be recalled to a specified floor.
CTF: Car To Floor - This is a spare input that may be assigned to the HC-CTL-2 board or
to a Universal I/O board as configured for the job. The floor to which the car is returned is
set by the Car to Floor Return Floor parameter in the Extra Features menu. Please refer to 1
Extra Features Menu Options on page 4-44.
When activated, causes the car to stop responding to hall calls. Existing car calls will be
serviced before or after recall depending on the setting of Retain Calls (see note
below). New car calls will not be registered.
At the return floor, the car will open then close its doors and remove itself from service.
CTL: Car to Lobby - This is a spare input that may be assigned to the HC-CTL-2 board or
to a Universal I/O board as configured for the job. The floor to which the car is returned is
set using the Lobby Floor parameter in the Basic Features menu. Please refer to Basic
Features Menu on page 4-13.
When activated, causes the car to stop responding to hall calls. Existing car calls will be
serviced before or after recall depending on the setting of Retain Calls (see note
below). New car calls will not be registered
At the lobby floor, the car will open then close its doors and remove itself from service.
Note
RETAIN CALLS?: There is a function in the Extra Features menu that determines if registered
car calls are serviced before or after recall. Please refer to RETAIN CALLS ON CTL / CTF? on
page 4-51.
Test/Pretest Modes
Test mode allows the car to be run on automatic operation without operating the doors. When
Test mode is active, door opening circuitry is deactivated, active hall calls are cancelled, and
new hall calls will not be registered.
Enter Test mode by placing the TEST/NORMAL/PRETEST switch on the HC-CTL-2
board in the TEST position. (The car will not enter Test mode if Inspection is active.)
When Test mode is active, the controller LCD will display TEST MODE.

Motion 4000 Traction Elevator Control
iMonitor
iMonitor is an elevator monitoring application that allows local or remote viewing and control
of MCE elevator groups using a personal computer running the Windows XP or Windows 7
operating system. Because Motion 4000 controls are Ethernet capable, you can connect to them
though a local area network or remotely through internet technology.
iMonitor provides a graphical representation of elevator groups, allowing their activity and sta-
tus to be quickly and easily viewed. The user defines any number of Connection Sets. Each
Connection Set consists of up to fifty connections to elevator group dispatchers selected by the
user.
When working in iMonitor, the user simply clicks on a Connection Set which automatically
establishes communication with all groups in the set and displays their associated hoistways
and cars on the computer screen. Practical viewing limits are established by the speed of the
connections and the size of the monitor viewing area.
When connected through iMonitor, the user may register car and general, auxiliary, or special
hall calls as desired, control many group security functions, and enable or disable certain eleva-
tor operating modes.
iReport
iReport is a system logging and report generating tool that allows local or remote analysis of
MCE elevator groups from a personal computer running the Windows XP or Windows 7 operat-
ing system and iReport client software. Because Motion 4000 controls are Ethernet capable,
you can use iReport to connect to them through a local area network or remotely through inter-
net/modem technology.
iReport consists of the iReport server and iReport clients. Motion 4000 group dispatchers may
be connected to iReport directly through a local area network or they may be connected
remotely through the internet. The group dispatcher provides iReport with hall call and car
operating mode information. The individual car controllers provide iReport with event and
fault notifications.
BMS-Link
BMS-LINK allows MCE elevators and escalators to be viewed and monitored using Building
Management Software. Control capabilities in keeping with management system software
needs are provided.

Installation
The job prints are the primary document used to install the controller. The job prints and man-
ual together provide information to install, adjust, and troubleshoot the controller. Study the
job prints and read the manual before starting work. Call MCE with any questions.
Instructions in this section assume that the hoist ropes are attached to the car sling, all hoistway
doors are closed, and that:
The CAR SAFETY IS ADJUSTED to the manufacturer specification
The GOVERNOR IS INSTALLED and the GOVERNOR ROPE CONNECTED to the safety
Safety
Certain fundamental warnings must be kept in mind at all times to help avoid accidental death,
severe personal injury, or equipment damage.
Personal Safety
Motion 4000 Controllers may only be installed by qualified, licensed, trained elevator per-
sonnel familiar with the operation of microprocessor-based elevator controls.
Verify safety devices (limits, governors, hoistway locks, car gate, etc.) are fully functional
before running the elevator. Never operate controls with any safety device inoperative.
The user is responsible for complying with the current National Electrical Code with
respect to the overall installation of equipment and proper sizing of electrical conductors.
The user is responsible for understanding and applying all current local, state, provincial,
and federal codes that govern practices such as controller placement, applicability, wiring
protection, disconnections, over-current protection, and grounding procedures.
Controller equipment is at line voltage when AC power is connected. Never operate con-
trols with covers removed from drive or brake controls.
After AC power has been removed, internal capacitors can remain charged for up to 5 min-
utes. Wait at least 5 minutes after power down before touching any internal components.
To reduce the risk of shock, all equipment should be securely grounded to earth ground.
Failure to obtain an actual earth ground may result in electrical shock to personnel. Pro-
vide equipment grounding in accordance with local code and NEC Article 250.
When using test equipment (oscilloscopes, etc.) with a power cord that electrically ties
probe common to earth ground, an isolation transformer should be used to isolate the
instrument common from earth ground.
Remain clear of all rotating equipment while working on the controls.
Equipment Safety
Provide equipment grounding in accordance with local code and NEC Article 250. Failure
to obtain a true earth ground may result in electrical shock. Improper grounding is the
most common cause of electrical component failure and noise-induced problems.
Replace components only with main line power off. Damage to equipment or unexpected
operation of the elevator may occur if this precaution is not observed.
2
Do not substitute or modify parts. MCE will not be responsible for modifications made in
the field unless they are approved in writing by MCE.
Circuit boards believed to be defective must be sent to MCE for repair and testing. Field
repair may leave the board with undetected problems.
Care should be taken when using test leads and jumpers to avoid shorting high voltage or
ground to low voltage microprocessor circuits.
Do not allow dust, carbon, or metallic particles to accumulate on any part of the control.
Avoid vibration, shock, high humidity, high ambient temperature, and caustic fumes.
Preparation
When choosing equipment location, consider:
Logical arrangement, taking into consideration other equipment, electrical power, and
seismic zone requirements.
Do not install equipment in hazardous or vibration prone locations.
Locate the drive isolation transformer (if used) near the controller to reduce wire runs.
Ambient temperature should remain within 32 to 104 Fahrenheit (0 to 40 Celsius).
Temperatures outside these guidelines may be tolerated, but will shorten equipment life.
Adequate ventilation is required. Air conditioning may be necessary.
The air in the machine room should be free of excessive dust, moisture, or corrosive ele-
ments. A NEMA 4 or NEMA 12 enclosure can help meet these requirements if machine
room conditions are inadequate. If the machine room has open or unglazed windows or
other direct outside openings, place equipment cabinets far enough from them that severe
weather does not damage the equipment.
Very high levels of radio frequency (RF) radiation from nearby sources should be avoided.
RFI may interfere with controller components, degrading elevator performance. Using
hand-held communication devices close to the controller may also cause interference.
Interference from permanently installed radio transmitting antennas is not common.
Power line fluctuation should not be greater than 10%.
2-3
Installation
Electrical Noise
Electrical noise readily occurs when two wires run along side one another with one of them a
high power conductor and the other a low signal level conductor. The easiest way to avoid noise
problems is to keep low-level wiring in separate conduit from high power wiring. If high and
low power wiring must be run in the same duct, separate them by a minimum of three to four
inches. If one must cross the other, it should be at a ninety degree angle.
Alternately, low level wiring may use shielded cable. The shield drains induced voltage to
ground. The shield must be connected to ground at one end only.
EMI/RFI
To avoid EMI/RFI interference:
Keep motor leads as short as possible. Run them in a separate conduit.
Run main line supply leads to the controller or isolation transformer in a separate conduit.
Run leads from the isolation transformer to the drive cabinet in a separate conduit.
The controller door will protect against interference only when closed.

Installation
Controller Installation
Mount the controller securely to the machine room floor and use provided wiring knock-outs to
install raceway or conduit to route wires into the cabinet.
Caution
If you drill or cut the cabinet, do not allow metal chips or shavings to fall into electronics.
Damage caused by this is not covered by warranty.

Be aware of the hierarchy of the inspection inputs. (Cartop has highest priority. In-car is next.
Machine Room is last.) In order to maintain safe operation of the lift while on access, car top, or
in-car inspection, the inspection circuits must be wired as shown in the prints.
Caution
PC boards can be easily damaged by Electrostatic Discharge (ESD). Use a properly
grounded wrist strap when touching PC boards. Do not touch PC Boards unless you are
properly grounded.
Use the wiring ducts in the controller. The terminals are located conveniently near them.
Connect wires according to hoistway and car wiring diagrams.
If the car is part of a duplex or group, there are additional steps related to wiring intercon-
nects between individual cars:
A separate conduit or wiring trough must be provided for the CAN link between each
controller cabinet.
Wiring details are shown in the job prints.
Ground all cabinets according to applicable guidelines. Please refer to Proper
Ground on page 2-7.
Proper Ground
Provide equipment grounding in accordance with local code and NEC Article 250. A proper
ground is essential to trouble free operation. Ground is defined as a direct connection to
EARTH GROUND. This type of ground is not always available in the electrical supply panel.
Electrical conduit is not a sufficient ground. Electrical ground should be obtained and certified
by the electrical contractor. When seeking an adequate EARTH GROUND:
Consult with the building engineer or electrical contractor to determine the best source for
a low impedance ground.
Sprinkler system water pipe is not adequate because the sprinkler system is, in most cases,
isolated from a free flowing earth water source.
Danger
If a poor ground connection is used and a true electrical ground is later introduced into the
system, the difference in potential can lead to the possibility of severe electrical shock to
personnel and damage to test equipment.
2-7
Installation
The chosen ground must conform to all applicable codes. Proper grounding is essential for
system safety and helps to reduce noise-induced problems.
Direct, solid grounding must be provided in the machine room to properly ground the con-
troller and the motor.
Figure 2.2 Ground Wiring to Controller Cabinet
1. An uninterrupted ground wire should be run from each car controller cabinet chassis or
back plate to earth ground. The connection at the car controller must be free of paint so
connection is made to bare metal. There should be less than 1-ohm to ground with the
power off.
2. Ground straps, or short loops of ground wire, should be run from the controller ground
connection to the primary duct connections.
3. An uninterrupted ground wire should be run from the hoist motor frame to the control-
ler ground. The ground connection to the hoist motor must be free of paint.
4. An uninterrupted ground wire should be run from a termination point on the cab to the
controller ground.
5. An uninterrupted ground wire should be run from the cab enclosure to the ground ter-
minal on the cab to protect passengers from electrical shock.
6. An uninterrupted ground wire should be run from each car operating panel to the
ground terminal on the cab to protect passengers from electrical shock.
7. An uninterrupted ground wire should be run from the dispatch cabinet chassis or back
plate to earth ground. The connection must be to the bare metal of the enclosure.
2-9
Installation
AC Power Connections
All conductors entering or leaving the controller must be through conduit.
High voltage, high current conductors must be separated from control wires.
Velocity encoder or tachometer wires must be routed in a separate conduit from high volt-
age, high current wires.
Incoming power to the controller and outgoing power to the motor must be through sepa-
rate, grounded conduits.
Brake Module If your job uses a brake control module, your job drawings may show aux-
iliary power connections specific to the brake from an isolation transformer. Follow the draw-
ings carefully.
1. Check the AC input specifications on your job prints. Verify that the AC supply is as
specified.
Note
Proper motor branch circuit protection in the form of a fused disconnect switch or circuit
breaker must be provided for each elevator according to applicable electrical code. Refer to the
drive manufacturer manual for proper drive circuit fuse sizing. Each disconnect or breaker
must be clearly labeled with the elevator number. The electrical contractor must determine the
wire size for the main AC power supply and for the wiring from the disconnect or breaker to the
controller or isolation transformer.
Power Check
After connecting power, it is a good practice to temporarily power up the control to check func-
tionality before connecting any field wiring.
1. Verify that the Inspection switch on the Control Board is in the Inspection position.
2. Visually check for loose connections or components.
3. Verify that fuses FB1 and FB2 are disengaged to prevent the brake from lifting.
4. Have a helper power up the controller and remain by the disconnect ready to shut down
immediately if needed.
5. Check that the Power On LED on the CHP (CAN Hub) board is on.
Verify all transformer and power supply voltage levels are correct per the job prints.
Verify all fuses are intact.
Check phase-to-phase input voltage. If necessary, shut off main power and swap two of
the incoming feeds at the controller main terminal.
6. After verification, shut down the controller and engage fuses FB1 and FB2 before con-
tinuing with field connections.
Danger
Verify that power to the controller has been shut off at the main disconnect before proceed- 2
ing with connections.
Motor Connection
Caution
If you are reusing an existing hoist motor, you must check it for insulation breakdown
before proceeding. Applying power from a modern drive to a motor with insulation prob-
lems can damage the motor and/or the drive.
Motor Wiring
Incoming power to the controller and outgoing power wires to the motor must be through sepa-
rate grounded conduits.
1. Refer to the power section drawing in your job prints.
2. Use a shielded power cable between the motor drive and the AC Motor stator connec-
tions to reduce RFI/EMI noise (Siemens Protoflex - EMV or equivalent). The shield
must be terminated to earth ground at both ends.
3. Make connections as shown. Be sure to follow any notes regarding wire sizes.
4. Pay particular attention to motor grounding instructions in the job prints and in the
motor manufacturer instructions.
2-11
Installation
Brake Connection
Motion 4000 controllers may be ordered with or without a brake control module. The module
allows more precise control of brake lift and drop rates. The brake module must be calibrated
before it will pick the brake. Please refer to Calibration (CAN Only) on page 5-85.
Standard Brake
1. Refer to the brake circuit drawing in your job prints to verify the configuration of the
braking circuit. (Brake control and brake adjustment resistors vary from job to job.)
Familiarize yourself with the brake pick, hold, and drop time adjustments.
2. Measure the resistance through the brake coil on the lift machine.
3. Initially, adjust resistance across the Brake Drop Time resistor(s) to three times the
measured brake coil resistance.
Note
This resistance determines brake drop time. Too little resistance causes the brake to remain
picked for a longer time, perhaps allowing rollback before stopping the car. Three times brake
coil resistance is usually a good starting point.
4. Connect the wires from the controller to the brake as shown in the job prints. Remember
that brake wires must not be routed in the same conduit with motor power or velocity
encoder wires.
Brake Module
If the job uses one machine brake as the service brake and the second machine brake as an
emergency brake, a brake module will be provided for each.
Connect the wires from the controller to the brake as shown in the job prints. Remember
that brake wires must not be routed in the same conduit with motor power or velocity
encoder wires.
Brake modules must be calibrated to the brake that they will be controlling. Please refer to Cal-
ibration (CAN Only) on page 5-85. Both calibration and adjustment are described in the refer-
enced area of the manual.
Brake Mechanics
Check basic brake characteristics at this time:
Ensure that the brake mechanism is clean and in good condition.
Check that the brake lining makes good contact with the machine braking surface (at least
95% of the pad must be in contact with the braking surface).
Check that the adjustment of the brake solenoid is not preventing the brake from fully
applying when it is not energized.
Check to see that the spring adjustments are equal and are torqued to the manufacturer
recommended brake torque settings.
Note
The encoder wiring must use a separate grounded conduit. Inside the controller cabinet, if con-
trol wires must cross power wires, they must cross at right angles to reduce the possibility of
interference. We recommend you use oversize conduit (typically 2- inch) so that connectors
may be fed through without having to disassemble the cable.
Encoder Wiring
Caution
Check job prints and installed encoder type to be certain they match. ONLY
WHEN the drive is switched off and the voltage supply is disconnected may the
feedback (encoder) connections be removed or connected.
A shielded cable with an appropriate connector at the encoder end is connected to the drive if
the type of encoder is known before the job is shipped. If the encoder type is unknown, the cable
ends expose trimmed and tinned individual conductors and the installer must attach the
encoder connector and make the proper connections at the drive end. The encoder cable must
be routed into the controller cabinet in a separate conduit from brake or power conductors.
1. Route the cable through a separate conduit to the controller cabinet.
2. If it was not done at the factory, connect the controller end of the cable as shown on the
drive interface sheet of the job prints and according to the encoder manufacturer
instructions.
3. Connect the encoder end of the cable to the encoder. (If you are providing the connector,
follow the encoder manufacturer instructions.)
Caution
Do not coil excess Encoder cable near high voltage components noise may be induced. If
the cable must be shortened, trim it at the drive end. Do not cut and re-splice in the middle
of the cable or shorten at the Encoder end.
2-13
Installation
Note
If you do not yet have the rope gripper or sheave brake on site, refer to Construction Mode
Jumper Requirements on page 2-27.
Initial Power Up
Danger
Always have a helper standing by the AC disconnect to power up the controller and to
immediately shut down if necessary.
Caution
Turning the control on and off repeatedly (more than once every two minutes) can damage
the inverter drive.
Inspection mode fault bypass remains activated, even across power cycles, until switched off.
Note
In the F3 menu, Automatic Mode Fault bypass is just before Inspection Mode Fault bypass.
When you want Inspection Mode bypass, be careful you do not mistakenly set Automatic mode.

How to Reset Excessive Faults
Many of the faults generated while performing acceptance tests are self-resetting once the fault
condition is corrected. However, this controller has excessive faults logic which will generate an
EXCESSIVE FAULTS SHUTDOWN if more than the established limit of faults occur within the
circumscribed period of time. To reset this fault:
Press the Fault Reset button on the HC-CTL-2 board.
Digital Operator
The keypad and LED display are mounted on the digital operator. The operator must be
plugged into the drive or the drive will not function. If the operator is removed while the drive is
operating, the drive will shut down immediately. If you must remove the operator, do so while
the elevator is standing still.

Note
Typically, the counterweight is sized to equal the weight of the car with 40%, 45%, or 50% of its
rated full load weight inside. At inspection speed, in the middle of the hoistway, with the car
properly loaded, drive current readings (F5, LF.93 or Magnetek D0/D2 MOTOR CURRENT)
should be equal in both up and down directions if counterweight/car balance is approximately
correct. A balancing procedure is provided in this section but, before you attempt to run the car
on Inspection, you must check that counterweighting has been addressed. Please refer to Car
and Counterweight Balance on page 3-7.

IMPORTANT
Because the directional limits are not in place, if the car is not set to Bypass Faults
on Inspection, it will not move down the hoistway.
Note
Note that there is an Automatic Mode fault bypass accessible through the Controller System
Menu as well. Be careful you are not setting it instead of Inspection Mode bypass.
Inspection mode fault bypass remains active, even across power cycles, until set to OFF. Auto-
matic Mode fault bypass times out after two hours.
Resolving Faults
If the car does not respond to a run command, check the HC-MPU board and drive displays for
error/fault codes. Please refer to Status and Error Messages on page 5-2.
Error codes are displayed individually in the order of detection. It is possible that, after you cor-
rect a current error condition, another will be displayed. All errors must be resolved before the
car will operate properly.
Support for troubleshooting position and speed related faults is provided in Sections 4 and 5 of
this manual. Please refer to MPI Diagnostic Menu on page 4-67 and to Section 5.
Drive gear ratio, rated RPM, contract speed, roping ratio, and sheave diameter settings dictate
the fastest speed at which the drive will run the motor and must be accurately set on the drive.
In the illustration below, the dashed line labeled DRIVE CLIPPING illustrates what can happen
to the S-curve if drive settings limit commanded speed. Rather than rolling into commanded
speed, the car will drop into a steady speed state abruptly, will run at a less than commanded
speed, and will drop into deceleration abruptly. So, improper drive settings can cause failure to
achieve commanded speed and bumpy transitions at speed/acceleration transition points.

Note
TORQMAX E.ENCC Fault: If a malfunction occurs, the drive shuts down and the display is
overwritten with an error message. After correction, most errors can be cleared by pressing the
Enter key. E.ENCC errors however can only be cleared through Parameter 0LF.26. If the drive
displays E.ENCC, refer to the LF.26 explanation in the drive manual.
Align Encoder (Magnetek)
HPV 600/900/900II
1. Move the elevator on Inspection and verify that the motor is under control and rotating
in the proper direction.
For proper operation, motor phasing must match encoder feedback phasing. If the phasing is
not correct, the motor will not accelerate up to speed. It will typically oscillate back and forth at
zero speed and the current will be at the torque limit.
2. If the motor operates as described above, verify that the encoder is wired as shown in
the prints. If it is, swap any two motor phases.
3. If the motor operates properly but is turning in the wrong direction, change the Motor
Rotation parameter in the drive C1 User Switches menu.
HPV 600PM
1. Place the controller on Inspection.
2. Set Inspection Speed (normal), controller F7, 155, to 1/8 of Contract Speed.
3. In the controller F3, Controller Utilities menu, set Inspection Mode Fault Bypass to ON.
(Jumper must be in place on HC-CTL-2 board Fault Reset Jumper JP2.)
4. Refer to and follow the Absolute Encoder Alignment Procedure, Auto Alignment Proce-
dure in the Magnetek HPV 600PM AC Drive technical manual.
5. Restore controller to original settings.
HPV 900PM
1. Place the controller on Inspection.
2. Set controller F7, 141, Profile Scale to 0.0%.
3. In the controller F3, Controller Utilities menu, set Inspection Mode Fault Bypass to ON.
(Jumper must be in place on HC-CTL-2 board Fault Reset Jumper JP2.) 2
4. Disable the machine brake. (Remove brake wire from brake coil if discrete brake circuit
is being used or set the Normal Brake Pick/Hold Voltage (F7, 194 and 195) to 0.0 if a
brake module is being used.)
5. Refer to and follow the Absolute Encoder Alignment, Alignment Via Car Controller pro-
cedure in the Magnetek HPV 900PM AC Drive technical manual.
6. Restore controller to original settings.
Brake Basics
1. Ensure that the brake is picking cleanly. With the car set up so that it will not move:
Manually activate the PM and BR contactors to lift the brake.
Measure DC voltage between terminals B1 and B2. It should be very close to the pick
voltage shown in your job prints.
Refer to job prints and adjust pick voltage if necessary.
2. Ensure that, when set, the brake is capable of holding 125% of rated car capacity. Refer
to Adjust Brake to 125% of Full Load on page 2-82.
3. Check that brake and motor coordination are such that the brake is dropping just when
motor rotation stops.
4. Check that the brake pick delay allows the motor to build sufficient flux to prevent roll
back when the car is starting.

Installation
Note
There are very important things to consider about the interaction between motion parameters
set on the drive and motion parameters on the controller.
TORQMAX: Drive parameters LF.20 Contract Speed, LF.21 Sheave diameter, and LF.11 Motor
RPM determine the drives Estimated Gear Ratio, LF.25. The drive will not drive the motor any
faster than determined by the Gear Ratio set at LF.22.

Note
In Motion 4000 installations, Final Limit switches are part of the hoistway safety string and
should not open unless the car overruns the terminal landing.
Hoistway Switches
Virtual/Physical/Unused
With the exception of the final limit switches, which are always physical, other slowdown
switches used in Motion 4000 installations may be physical, virtual, or unused:
Physical: Normal switches installed in hoistway.
Virtual: Switches placed in software by the positioning system. Please refer to Terminal
Switch Options, 69 - 74 on page 4-147.
Unused: Depending upon car contract speed, some hoistway switch positions may be
unused.
LS-EDGE
Hoistway switch requirements for LS-EDGE are like those for ELGO except that ETS, when
required, are 5 magnet strips.
Seismic Equipment
A ring and string circuit detects excessive counterweight motion caused by a seismic distur-
bance. When motion is detected, the car will make a full stop. After stopping, the car will move
to and level at the next available floor in the direction away from the counterweight. After level-
ing, the car will open its doors and allow passengers to exit.
2
Modes of operation other than Automatic, for example Fire Phase II or Attendant mode, allow
different operating options when potential counterweight derailment has been detected.
Your job may also use a lateral and/or vertical acceleration sensor to detect seismic activity. At
this point, you should install counterweight movement detection and seismic sensors in accor-
dance with your job prints and seismic monitor manufacturer instructions.
Counterweight Displacement
Kit:
Two steel cables run parallel
to counterweight guide rails,
passing through a pair of
eyebolts on the counter-
weight. If the counterweight
moves laterally, the cable
touches the ring, completing
the circuit and providing an
alert to the controller.
Seismic Detector:
Detects and records vertical and hori-
zontal seismic movement. Peak accel-
eration along each axis is detected
and stored for up to 15 seismic
events. The easy to read LCD displays
real time acceleration and angle of
deflection.

Installation
Danger
Controller inspection warnings:
As always when actively installing an elevator, have someone stand by the main line dis-
connect when power is applied or when initial attempts are made to move the car.
Check all safety circuits are functional.
Check all hoistway door interlocks are functional.
Check car gate circuitry is functional.
Controller Power Up
After powering up the controller, check the following:
1. If the LCD is displaying an error message, troubleshoot to resolve the issue. (Please refer
to Section 5.)
2. Check that the LCD displays INSPECTION.
3. Using the Enable button and the Up/Down toggle, run the car.
4. Release the Enable button and note that machine and brake power are released and that
the brake drops and holds the car.
5. Run the car and use the hand-held tach to verify inspection speed.

With the car running safely on Inspection operation, you are ready to finish installation. This
section describes installing:

Installation
Landing/Positioning System
Depending upon job requirements, Motion 4000 may use an encoded magnetic tape landing
system (ELGO) or a perforated steel tape system (LS-EDGE). This section describes both sys-
tems. LS-EDGE NEMA 4X/12 systems use stainless steel hoistway components and a sealed
sensor head but are otherwise installed just as are standard systems.
LS-EDGE
The LS-EDGE positioning system uses hall-effect sensors and perforated steel tape to report
position as the car moves through the hoistway. 5.5-inch magnets are used at each door zone;
one row for front openings, a second for rear openings.
The system uses capacitor-stored power and non-volatile memory to retain position informa-
tion in the event of a power failure, continuing to capture information for 10 seconds after
power loss and storing the final reading for use after power restoration.
The LS-EDGE kit contains the sensor head assembly, an L bracket to mount the sensor
assembly to a uni-strut that is in turn attached to the elevator cab (uni-strut to elevator cab not
provided), steel tape, top and bottom steel tape hanger assemblies, the required number of door
zone magnets, and the CAT-5 electrical cables required to connect the sensor to the car top
interface box.
Depending on applicable code, you may have to route electrical connections through conduit. If
so, we recommend minimum 3/4-inch flex so that the modular connectors can slide through
without binding. Perforations for cable tie wrap connection are provided on the RJ-45 plug-end
of the sensor head.

3. Adjust extended strut length as required (tape suspended as close to the guide rail as
adequate clearances will allow to reduce loading on end of unistrut). Secure rail mount-

Tape Tension
The tape is tensioned according to compression of the bottom tape mount spring. The tension
gauge provides visual indication of low, medium, and high tension positions. Short runs, up to
five floors will generally be acceptable at the low tension position. Runs to 15 floors will gener-
ally be acceptable at the medium tension position. Longer runs may require the high tension
position but you should start out with the medium setting first. The scale values are provided as
a guideline only. They are not calibrated. Adjust to suit the installation.
Tape tension is intended to reduce noise caused by tape vibration at contract speed. Generally,
you want to use the lowest tension setting that maintains a quiet tape at contract speed.
Sensor Installation
Tape guide side pieces easily detach so the sensor can be slipped onto the steel tape. Attach the
sensor to the cartop as shown in Figure 2.19

Sensor Alignment After the tape has been installed, check the sensor alignment. The
sensor should not ride hard on either side of the uni-strut bracket during any part of travel
through the hoistway. In high-rise buildings, if rail alignment varies substantially, it may cause
the encoder guides to wear prematurely. If such misalignment is noted, the installation should
be inspected more regularly.

tions, Motion 4000 uses the DISC (discrete) connection in addition to the M-CAN connection.
In addition to the sensor-to-cartop box connections, there are Landing System Interface board
to the controller as shown in the prints for the job.
Caution
Secure cables with a nylon tie wrap through the holes provided. VERY IMPORTANT as it
provides strain relief and prevents connector fatigue over time.

Installation
ELGO
The encoded tape used for the landing system is suspended between two mounting brackets
that attach to the car rail using forged clips and hardware. If the job uses 8#, 23#, or 30# rail,
you will need an additional kit for the proper size hardware: LS-ELGO-RAIL-08#, LS-ELGO-
RAIL-23#, or LS-ELGO-RAIL-30#. The high speed Elgo positioning system sensor and
tape described here are not compatible with earlier versions. Contact MCE if you
have questions.
This information is specific to Elgo-240 standard and NEMA 4X landing systems. To be certain
you are following the correct instructions:
Described here:
Sensor Head about 19 inches (483mm) long
Head label starts with LIMAX2 followed by additional characters
Tape labeled AB20-80-10-1-R-B-15 and has arrows and UP label
NEMA 4X systems are specifically labeled NEMA TYPE 4X
NEMA 4X systems use stainless steel hangers and hardware for corrosion resistance
and a NEMA 4X rated tape switch.
Caution
Improper installation could result in failure of the tape, mounting
hardware, and reader. Please read instructions before installing!
The Motion high speed positioning system uses a permanently encoded tape running the length
of the hoistway. The tape is about 1/2-inch wide and consists of two bands; a metal band for
strength and a dark, magnetic material band that carries the actual encoding.
The encoded side of the tape (dark side) must face the elevator car.
Magnetic band
Steel band
Caution
The arrows on the magnetic side of the tape must point in the up direction and

Recommendations
If you install the bottom hanger and safety switch before hanging the tape, go ahead and test the
switch function. When opened, the switch should shut off power to the machine and the brake
causing the elevator to immediately stop.
After testing switch functionality, use a piece of wire or string to temporarily hold the switch in
the closed position so that you can run the car on car top inspection to hang the tape.
Caution
Do not temporarily jumper the switch. It is far too easy to forget and leave the jumper in
place.

Installation
Installation
This kit is configured to mount the sensor head on the left side of the rail (as you face the rail
blade). If necessary, you can change this to right side mounting. Please refer to Left to Right
Rail Side Reversal on page 2-77. Tape hangers are steel channels that clamp across the back of
the car rail using forged rail clips. The tape hangs directly from the top hanger and connects
through a tensioning spring to a switch pivot on the bottom hanger. With the tape properly
hung, spring tension keeps the pivot held against the switch, keeping it closed. If tension is lost
due to a tape failure, the switch will open the safety string and bring the car to a stop.
1. Attach top and bottom hangers to the rail lightly using clips and hardware provided.
2. Use a tape measure to adjust the hangers to provide equal offset from rail edge to encod-
ing tape. Tighten the retaining hardware.

Tape End Pieces Tape end clamps are loosely assembled using 1-inch, 8x32 screws so
that you can simply loosen them up, weave the tape through, and tighten the screws down. It
may be easiest to attach just the top end piece now and then attach the bottom end piece after
hanging the tape.
1. Loosen the screws on a tape end clamp. Slide the tape through between the center piece
and the top clamp, magnetic band up, down through the square hole and back through
2
between the center piece and the bottom clamp. See the figure below.
2. Gently tighten the screws in the order shown below. Square up the end clamp and the
tape.

3. In the same 1, 2, 3, 4 order, make several passes, tightening each screw just a little each
time. Finally, torque each screw to 14 in-lb. or 224 in-oz. (depending on the units on
your torque driver).
Hanging Tape With the hangers in position on the rails such that the tape will hang
approximately vertically, connect the tape to the top hanger using the hex bolt and locking nut
provided. Make certain the arrow on the tape is pointing up and that the magnetic surface is
facing the car. Begin unreeling tape toward the bottom of the hoistway:
1. Move slowly down the hoistway and unroll the tape from the carrier.
2-69
Installation
2. Attach the bottom end of the tape using the hanger parts kits and
the tensioning springs. Fine tune proper vertical alignment (both
front-to-back and side-to-side) the hanger bracket ends are
adjustable to provide fine side-to-side alignment (step 3).
At proper tension (about 16 lbf.), the springs will be stretched
about 3.0 (75 mm) beyond their relaxed length.
3. The assemblies to which the tape attaches, both top and bottom,
allow fine alignment adjustment without having to work with the
heavy, rail clamp hardware. After adjustment, torque the 3/8
bolts/nuts to 10 ft lbs.
Note
Check that the elevator car does not rock excessively. If necessary, adjust roller or other guides
until excessive rocking is eliminated. The Elgo reader will track with the car. Excessive lateral
car movement will translate into reader/tape alignment movement.
Sensor Mounting Move the car to the middle of the hoistway. Attach the
sensor to the car. The head must be positioned such that the CAN cable exits the top
of the sensor head.
Exactly how you mount the sensor head will depend on the physical structure of the
car and sling and the position of the tape. Because there is so much variation 2
between jobs, sensor head mounting brackets are usually fabricated on site. Three
examples follow.
Note
Shims. For the hangers described in this instruction, four shims are pro-
vided. Once you have completed sensor installation, if you find you are very slightly
out of plumb, you may slightly loosen a bolt or nut and insert a shim to correct. If a
component is out more than may be corrected by two or three shims, check major
components, level, and plumb and correct the basic installation.

screws through the front of the switch must be at the
very bottom of the oblong screw holes.
8. Once the switch is in position, rotate the pivot until it closes the switch. With your free
hand, press the switch and note that it still has about 1 mm (1/25 in) of travel. This
ensures that the pin on the pivot is contacting the inside of the mounting arm and pro-
tecting the switch from being damaged by excessive force.
9. Verify that the pivot moves smoothly and will drop when released.
10. When making electrical connections to the switch, note the torque settings for the con-
nection screws and the switch cover screw.

building. The process is different depending on the type of landing/positioning system for the
job.
HOISTWAY LEARN
N=LEARN / S=FILL
Note
Selecting LEARN will start an operation in which you learn accurate floor levels as the car
moves up the hoistway. Selecting FILL lets you skip the learn operation and just plug in an aver-
age value for floor heights so that you can take the time to perform a learn operation later.

Selecting LEARN starts a process in which you move the car up the hoistway a floor at a time,
leveling and saving at each floor.
1. Press N. The display will prompt: Go to landing 1.
2. Bring the car as close to level at landing 1 as is practical. Press S.
3. The display will ask you to enter an offset to make up for any difference in level between
car and floor: xxx.x In. Adj + - Next when done.
4. Measure the offset (if any).
5. If the car is above the floor, use the + (plus) button to enter the offset value.
If the car is below the floor, use the - (minus) button to enter the offset value.
6. Press N. The display will prompt you to move to the next landing. The process will
repeat at each landing until all have been learned.
7. When all floors have been learned, the display will prompt you to learn counterweight
position.

Profile Parameters
Typical initial values to begin adjusting toward contract speed running are listed in the table
below. Hoistway speed and position related information may be reviewed using a controller F5
switch-accessed menu. Please refer to MPI Diagnostic Menu on page 4-69.
Start jerk - defines rate of transition from zero speed to full acceleration. As Start Jerk
increases, the profile transitions more quickly from starting to maximum acceleration. 3
Acceleration - determines the maximum acceleration for the profile.
Roll jerk - Roll Jerk determines the rate that the profile transitions from maximum to
zero acceleration and zero to maximum deceleration. As Roll Jerk increases, the profile
transitions more quickly. Lower values provide greater comfort but are harder to fit into
the shortest one-floor-runs.
High speed - determines the maximum speed for the Standard curve, usually the same as
contract speed (ft/min).
Contract speed - the rated speed for the car.
Inspection speed - determines the speed at which the elevator will run when the Manual
curve is being used.
Deceleration - determines the maximum deceleration for this profile.
Stop jerk - defines the transition from deceleration to Leveling Speed. As Stop Jerk
increases, the profile transitions more quickly from Deceleration to Leveling Speed.
Leveling speed - determines the Speed at which the elevator will level into the floor.

Tuning
1. For initial setup, set the Profile Advance parameter, F7, 140, to 1 divided by response.
2. Depending upon drive tuning, the leveling distance may have to be generous to allow the
elevator speed to completely transition to the requested leveling speed. for initial use,
set the Leveling Distance parameter, F7, 160, to 2.0 inches. (Once the drive is tuned, this
may be set to a more optimum value.)
3. Depending on drive tuning, the transition from leveling speed to zero speed may be
sluggish. For initial use, set the Standard Slew Slope parameter, F7, 142, to 2.0 ft/s2 or
greater. (Once the drive is tuned, this may be set to a more optimum value.)

1. If the car attempts to relevel but cannot:
Adjust Leveling speed parameter F7:158 to get the car to move.
Check that the car is not opening the down final limit.
2. If a fault code is displayed, troubleshoot and correct the fault.
3. Verify that the position indicator matches the car position.
4. Verify that the brake has been set as described in Section 2 to hold 125% of load, Adjust
Brake to 125% of Full Load on page 2-82.
Brake Coordination
1. Adjust speed pick delay parameter F7:134 so that the brake is fully picked just as the
motor first spins. The goal is to avoid spinning the motor before the brake is picked but
not to introduce so much delay that rollback occurs.
2. TORQMAX: Refer to the TORQMAX drive manual for information relating to speed
pick delay interaction with pre-torque parameters.
3. Magnetek: Refer to Rollback Gain in the Magnetek HPV AC Drive Technical Manual.
Run Tests
Register calls to all the landings in turn and observe that the car stops properly at the requested
landing. As drive adjustments are made to tune performance, parameters on the controller F7
menu may need readjustment: Profile Advance, Leveling Distance, Leveling Dead Zone, Stan-
dard Slew Slope, Standard Stop Jerk, etc.

If the car opens a Final Limit If the car overshoots a terminal and opens the Final
Limit switch, power will immediately be removed from the machine and brake and the car will
come to an immediate stop. If this occurs, it means the Final Limit switch is incorrectly posi-
tioned (check job prints), that differential gain or other motor settings are incorrect, or that the
virtual slowdown switches selected for the performance curve are too aggressive.
1. Check the Final Limit switch position at both terminals against the job prints.
2. Check all motor and encoder related settings.
3. Slightly increase differential gain settings and/or incrementally move virtual terminal
slowdown switches away from the terminal landing.
4. Retest.
Note
If a Final Limit Switch has opened, you will need to place the car on Inspection operation and
temporarily jumper out the limit switch while you move the car to the terminal landing.

a wiring problem or a defective brake module.
3. Investigate and solve this problem. The regenerative resistors or the brake module regu-
late car speed during full load down or empty load up conditions and are critical to
safety. Contact MCE if necessary.
Electrical Noise
If the motor makes excessive electrical noise or draws higher than normal current:
Check Encoder Polarity (TORQMAX) on page 2-46 or Align Encoder (Magnetek) on
page 2-46.
Check TORQMAX LF.29. Try changing it from 4 to 8 or from 8 to 16.
Verify traction sheave diameter and correct entry in drive parameter.
Verify machine gear reduction ratio and correct entry in drive parameter.
Verify Rated Motor Speed and correct entry in drive parameter.
Verify acceleration and deceleration integral and proportional gain drive settings. Refer to
drive manufacturer manual for detail.
Note
Imperial motor nameplates list full load RPM. With induction motors, this value is equal to syn-
chronous RPM less slip. If your motor lists only synchronous RPM, you must determine its slip
percentage and subtract that amount to arrive at rated motor speed.
For example, a Reuland motor in a flux vector application has slip between 1.8% and 2.0%. If
synchronous RPM is 1200, 1.8% of that is about 22 RPM so rated motor speed would be 1200
minus 22 = 1178 RPM. (F5 drive parameter LF.11. If you auto-tuned the drive to the motor, this
parameter is learned and should not become a problem.)
Load Weigher
Information from the load weigher is used for pre-torquing and for dispatching decisions, e.g.
light load anti nuisance, heavy load, and overload.

Calibration
Manual Calibration with Weights
This procedure allows the EMCO control unit to do the following:
Learn the empty weight of the car and set this weight as the zero reference (the analog
voltage output from the control unit will be about zero volts at this weight).
Learn a known weight. You place a known weight in the car and enter it into the control
unit. The load weigher will then learn this weight.
If you are using the analog output, you will enter the car overload weight value. The con-
trol unit uses this information to scale the analog output so that, at the point the sensors
detect overload conditions, the analog output is about 10 volts. The analog output from
empty to overload weight will be linear from about 0.0 to 10.0 volts.
If you are using the relays, you will enter the set points for each relay.
1. Before programming or calibrating the sensors and control unit:
Bring car to the lowest floor of its total travel.
Bounce in car to verify that it is free on guide rails.
2. Verify that the sensors are properly connected to the control unit.
3. Power up the control unit and verify that the input voltage is within the voltage range of
the control unit.
4. Verify that the sensors are installed on the wire ropes per the previous instructions.
5. Learn the empty car weight (Zero the control unit):
Press the menu button until is displayed.
Press the button once. The display will flash.
While the display is flashing, press the menu button once. If the display stops
flashing before you press the menu button, you must start over.
The control unit display begins to count down. Exit the cartop before the countdown
finishes.
When the zero calibration is complete, will be displayed. If is not
shown, the value has not been saved and this step must be repeated.
6. Learn a known weight (full load is recommended):
Press the menu button until is displayed, if it is not shown already.
Place a known weight in the car (full load recommended).
Enter the value of the known weight. Press the button to select a digit (blinks when
selected) and press the button to set the value.
Note
If the overload weight (125% of full load) will exceed 9999 lbs, use a percentage of the full load
weight instead. For example, if full load weight is 9,000 lbs, scale it to 80% by entering 7200.
That way, overload weight will be under 9999 lbs (9000 lbs with the given example). If value
exceeds 9999, the weigher will display err7.
Press the menu button twice. The control unit will begin to count down. Exit the
cartop before the countdown finishes. When the known weight has been learned,
will be displayed. You can press the menu button until the weight is shown
on the control unit display. The weight displayed should be the value of the weights in
the car, or the scaled value. 3
Complete steps 7, 8, and 9 only if the load weigher analog output will be used (references the
analog output to 10Vdc at this weight). Go to Relay Setup for relay output weighing.
Relay Setup
1. For discrete relay closure weighers, the set points for relays AL C, AL S, and AL A must
be programmed as shown in the job prints, typically -
Light Load - 25% or less of full load, relay ON/normally closed
Dispatch Load - 60% of full load, relay OFF/normally open
Heavy Load - 80% of full load, relay OFF/normally open
Overload - 100% of full load, relay OFF/normally open
Overload 2 - 125% of full load, relay OFF/normally open
2. Enter the trip point for relay AL C - (EMCO terminal #2 on the job prints).
Press the menu button until is displayed.
Enter the value of the desired trip point weight (or the value of the weight scaled by the
same percentage used in step 6). Press the button to select a digit (blinks when
selected) and press the button to set the value.
Press the menu button once. The display indicates On which means normally
closed (contacts will open when weight exceeds set point). Press the button if you
want to change it to Off, normally open (contacts will close when weight exceeds set
point).
Press the menu button twice to save the settings.

Controller Parameters
If the load weigher is used for dispatching options, e.g., light load anti-nuisance, dispatch
load (lobby door dwell cancel), heavy load (hall call bypass) or overload options, the con-
troller needs to learn the empty and full load weights at every landing available to this car.
If the load weigher will be used to implement dispatching options, the parameters associ-
ated with these options must be set. Please refer to the Adjusting the Load Thresholds sec-
tion of this manual
Auto-zero Calibration
The EMCO load weigher has an auto-zero calibration option which can be used if needed. Typi-
cally this option is recommended for 2 to 1 roping or where guide shoes, rather than guide roll-
ers, are used.

Troubleshooting
1. Check for error codes on the display.
= Bad load cell connection or damaged load cell. Verify load cells are connected
to the control unit per the wiring diagram. Inspect cables for cuts or broken wires.
= Negative load cell flow. Verify load cell connections to the control unit are per
the wiring diagram.
= Positive load cell flow. Load cells are too small for the application and must be
replaced with proper units.
= Polarity error. Verify load cell connections to the control unit are per the wir-
ing diagram. Reprogram the control.
= MB-D display short. Locate the short. Disconnect MB-D display, turn off the
control, then reconnect the MB-D display.
= Loss of data in memory. Reprogram the control.
2. Verify that proper voltage is being supplied to the control unit.
3. Check all connections to the control unit.
4. Check the fuse: Disconnect power to the control unit. Open the unit by removing the five
(5) screws that hold the cover. Remove fuse from black fuse holder next to controller
transformer and replace with new fuse if necessary.

Caution
In this document, overspeed tests ask you to scale a run speed by 110% in order to exceed
the respective overspeed for that setting. This is almost always adequate. However, if the
speed required for the test exceeds 110% of contract speed, you will need to increase the
scaling percentage, F7-141, to compensate. Otherwise, the overspeed will not be detected
which, in some tests, may result in a car or counterweight unintentionally hitting a buffer or
overhead.
Always have a technician standing by to shut down the elevator if necessary.

Safety Tests
This is a two part test. Car safety testing verifies proper operation of car safeties. The objective is
to set the safeties causing the machine to break traction. The overspeed must be sufficient to
cause the governor to trip mechanically and set the car safeties. The electrical governor switch
must not prevent the car from reaching the mechanical trip speed and the safety operated
switch (plank switch) must not open the safety string.

Note
When performing emergency power related testing, ensure that the mPAC hand-held program-
ming unit, if used, is not connected.
Check the MCE drawings to verify that the car is properly connected to a TAPS unit. Addition-
ally verify that the TAPS unit is properly charged and is displaying no fault conditions.
Mainline Disconnect Verification This verifies that the fourth pole of the main line
disconnect or micro switch is functional when power is intentionally shut off at the main line
disconnect.
1. Verify that TAPS BS1 and BS2 are connected to the fourth pole of the main line discon-
nect.
2. Set the AC/TAPS DISCONNECT switch to the ON position.
3. Shut off power at the main line disconnect.
4. Verify that the car is not energized and remains stopped.

9. If TAPS shuts down before the elevator completes the rescue operation due to the timer
set in parameter F1-1 Backup Power Run Time, extend the timer accordingly and per-
form the test again.
10. If TAPS shuts down before the elevator completes the rescue operation due to battery
voltage drop below F1-5 (error code E-04), let the TAPS charge for 8 hours before per-
forming this test again.
11. If input P3 Rescue Operation Complete is used, TAPS shall shut down once the rescue
operation is complete and input P3 is energized. This will immediately cancel the
parameter F1-1 Backup Power Run Time. If the command is not issued to the TAPS
unit, please check wiring and controller output.
12. If input P2 Restart Backup Power Operation is used, verify by pushing the DOB button
in the COP to validate proper wiring and operation. This can be done once TAPS has
been shut down by either P3 input or parameter F1-1 Backup Run Time having
elapsed. TAPS shall then restart when the DOB is pressed and will operate until either
P3 is activated or parameter F1-1 has expired.
13. If input P1 Remote Backup Power Operation is used, verify correct operation by trig-
gering this input from the appropriate controller output or the source it is wired to. To
do this, TAPS shall be on commercial power operation and Normal Power indicator
shall be lighted. When the P1 input is triggered and held for the duration defined by F1-
9 Commercial Power Loss Detection (factory default is 2 seconds), TAPS shall proceed
to BACK UP power operation and indicator BACKUP POWER shall light. TAPS shall
then operate until cancelled by either input P3 Rescue operation Complete or by
parameter F1-1 Backup Power Run Time having elapsed. Note that shut down may
also be caused by drained/discharged batteries, dead batteries, or an inoperative UPS
unit.
During Phase 2 of Emergency Power Operation, if the car Emergency Power Run (EPRUN)
input is activated, the car will run normally. Otherwise, the car will remain at the emergency
power return floor and will not respond to calls.
For a simplex controller, the car EPRUN input is sometimes connected to a switch so that the
input can be turned ON and OFF. For a duplex or groups, each car EPRUN input may be con-
nected to a Run Selection switch. The position of this switch determines which car will run dur-
ing Phase 2 of Emergency Power Operation.
Often, there is an AUTO position on the Run Selection switch connected to the AUTO inputs on
controllers in a group or duplex installation. If the AUTO input is activated, one car will be auto-
matically selected to run during Phase 2 of Emergency Power Operation. For example: If one
car happens to be out of service when the operation begins, another car will be automatically
selected to run.
Check the MCE drawings to verify that the car is properly connected to the emergency generator
and that emergency power (F1, Extra Features Menu) is set up appropriately. A typical genera-
tor connection is shown below.

group or other controller.
Blank = Simplex Operation
D (dispatcher): This controller is acting as a
dispatcher. It is responsible for assigning
hall calls to itself and to a second controller

been established with controller or group.
Status / Error Message: The top line is elevator
status or an error message. Messages are scrolled if longer than the space available. There
is a status message for each special operation (e.g., Fire Service). There are also messages
for error conditions (e.g., open safety string). Please refer to Status and Error Messages
on page 5-2 for a list of messages including a description and troubleshooting suggestions.
PI nn: Current elevator position relative to the bottom floor. 1 denotes the lowest landing
served.
Computer Internal Memory: Register address and contents. Each of the 8 data digits
(flags) corresponds to a particular elevator signal or condition. Each digit is either 1 or 0. A
1 indicates the signal or condition is ON and 0 indicates it is OFF.
The Computer Internal Memory Chart (Table 4.3 on page 4-7) shows the meaning of data at dif-
ferent addresses. For example, the internal memory display might look like this:
At address 29; the data is 11110000. To figure out what this means, match up the data digits
with row 29 of the Computer Internal Memory Chart table:
Display Data: 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 0
Row 29: DNDO LD DPD DDP UPDO LU UPD UDP
DNDO, LD, DPD and DDP signals are ON; UPDO, LU, UPD and UDP signals are OFF.

Troubleshooting Example
Examining the computer memory (as in the example above) is a useful step in troubleshooting.
It is possible to find out if the controller is receiving input signals correctly and if it is sending
proper output signals. It is also possible to look up each of the computer output and input sig-
nals shown in the Job Prints.
The following example explains how to use Table 4.3 on page 4-7 and Table 4.4 on page 4-9 to
check a signal in internal memory.
Problem: the photo eye will not cause the doors to reopen.
1. Look at Table 4.4 on page 4-9. Find the abbreviation or mnemonic for Photo Eye input.
The table shows that the mnemonic for Photo Eye input is PHE and provides an
Address (Add) and Position (1 - 8).
This information shows where to look for the signal in Table 4.3 on page 4-7 and on
the computer display.
Table 4.3 on page 4-7 shows that the address of PHE is 20 and the position is 7.
2. Notice in the table that PHE is indeed in position 7 on row 20.
3. Now that the address and position have been determined, look up the PHE signal on the
computer.
First, change the address on the display to address 20.
Then, look at data bit number 7 (from the right),
which is underlined in the graphic:
This digit represents the computer interpretation of the PHE
signal. If the digit is 1, the computer thinks that the PHE sig-
nal is ON. If the digit is 0 (as shown), the computer thinks
that the PHE signal is OFF.
This information can be used to find the source of the problem. The diagnostic display will show
that the PHE input is ON when an obstruction is present which should interrupt the photo eye
beam. If this is the case, checking the voltage present on the PHE terminal will show if the prob-
lem is inside or outside the controller.

SIMPLEX/LOCAL OR DUPLEX?
Each controller is programmed at the factory for either simplex/local, or duplex opera-
tion. If the controller is a simplex, it assigns calls only for itself. The Duplex option will
not appear.
If the controller is a duplex, it can operate a single car as a simplex or it can be con-
nected to a second Motion 4000 controller and the two can operate as a duplex.
Both controllers must have duplex capability for duplexing to work. The option on
each controller must be set to duplex. Jumper JP3 on each HC-MPU (lower right cor-
ner) must be in place for successful Duplex operation.
If the controller is controlled by a group dispatcher, it should be set to Simplex/Local.
In Duplex configuration, one of the controllers will assert itself as the dispatcher and will
remain the dispatcher unless it is taken offline. The dispatching controller will show a D on its
LCD; the other, an S. Hall calls are physically connected to both controllers.
OPERATION:
Dispatching operation - For simplex operation, you may choose: Selective Collective,
Single Button Collective, or Single Automatic Push button:
Selective Collective - Use if there is an UP and DOWN button at each landing except for the
top floor (DOWN button only) and bottom floor (UP button only) and any number of hall
calls can be registered at one time.
Single Button Collective - Use if there is only one call button at each landing and any num-
ber of calls can be registered at one time.
Single Automatic Push button - Use if there is only one call button at each landing and only
one call can be registered and/or serviced at a time.
Note
If Single Button Collective or Single Automatic Push button operation is selected, one of the
spare outputs should be used for an INDFRC output. This is used to disconnect hall calls during
Fire Service and Independent Service (see Spare Outputs Menu on page 4-36, INDFRC out-
put and your job prints for more detail). For duplex operation, the dispatching scheme is always
Selective Collective so the Operation option message will not appear if duplex is selected.

Caution
Settings that affect the number of floors in the building, openings served per floor, discrete
or serial (CE) position indicators, or the presence or absence of a serial car call board deter-
mine the sequence of connections on Universal I/O boards used as call boards in the con-
troller (UIO boards with addresses from 0 to 31). These settings are made at the factory and
should never need to be changed. If you do need to change these settings, disconnect the
orange I/O terminal blocks from the UIO boards first, change the settings, then re-wire and
re-connect the terminal blocks.
PARKING FLOOR
Any landing may be the parking floor. The car will go to the parking floor when it is
free of call demand. There is a Parking Delay Timer that will cause a free car to wait for
a short time before parking. The timer is adjustable, with a value between 0.0 minutes
(no delay) and 6.0 minutes (see PARKING DELAY TIMER (Range: 0.0-6.0 Minutes)
on page 4-25). 4
If the parking feature is not needed, choose NONE. The car will then stay at the last
call answered.
ALT. PARKING FLOOR
Available only when an API input is programmed and a parking floor is set. Any land-
ing can be chosen as the alternate parking floor. The car will go to the alternate parking
floor when it is free of call demand and the API input is active.
SECONDARY PARKING FLOOR
Does not apply to Simplex. Any landing may be the secondary parking floor. A car will
go to this floor when it is free of call demand and the other car is already parked at the
first parking floor. It is acceptable to make the secondary parking floor the same as the
first parking floor if both cars are to park at the same floor. If a second parking floor is
not needed, choose NONE for the Secondary Park Floor option. The first free car will
go to the first parking floor and the second car will stay at the last call answered.
LOBBY FLOOR
Any landing may be the Lobby Floor. When the car answers a hall or car call at this
floor, the doors will stay open until the Lobby Door Timer elapses. The Lobby Door
Timer is adjustable (see LOBBY DOOR TIMER (Range: 0.5-120.0 Seconds) on
page 4-24). NOTE: The Lobby Floor is also used for the CTL (Car To Lobby) input.
CAR IDENTIFIER
Does not apply to Simplex. Specifies which controller is assigned to car A and which to
car B, primarily for controllers using a peripheral device such as a monitoring system.

DEDICATED PI BOARD? (Appears if Discrete PIs on UIO? is set to Yes. Dedicates first
one or two HC-UIO boards to PIs alone [no call connections]).
If Yes: Position Indicators will be located on UIO Board 0 (zero) for 2 - 16 stops or
boards 0 (zero) and 1 (one) for 2 - 32 stops (board 1 handles 17 - 32 [assuming that PI
is one wire per floor]). Calls will begin on a new UIO Board immediately following
Board 0 or 1.
If No: PIs are located on UIO boards but calls can begin immediately following the last
PI rather than on the next UIO board.
SERIAL CARTOP DOOR CONTROL?
Set to Yes if the door operator is connected to an HC-UIO board in the cartop box
rather than using multiple connections through the traveler to the HC-CTL-2 board in
the controller cabinet.
DISABLE LOCAL HALL CALLS?
Set to Yes if the car is dispatched by a group controller and should not respond to a
local (connected to car) riser. If this car has swing operation, do not set this to Yes as it
will prevent the car from responding to local riser calls.

Dynamic: Regardless of which fire alarm initiating device (FAID) initiated Fire Phase I
operation, whenever the FAID in the elevator machine room or hoistway is activated, the
fire hat in the associated car will flash. Otherwise, the fire hat will illuminate solidly unless
required by code to flash in response to some other, non-FAID device actuation (for exam-
ple, battery rescue device, low oil, etc.).
Latch Flashing: Regardless of which fire alarm initiating device (FAID) initiated Fire
Phase I operation, once the FAID in the elevator machine room or hoistway is activated,
the fire hat in the associated car will flash and remain flashing throughout fire service.
Latch Initial: If the fire alarm initiating device (FAID) that initiated Fire Phase I is located
in the elevator machine room or hoistway, the fire hat in the associated car will flash and
remain flashing throughout fire service. Otherwise, the fire hat will illuminate solidly and
remain so throughout fire service unless required by code to flash in response to some
other, non-FAID device actuation (for example, battery rescue device, low oil, etc.). This
option should be selected for ASME A17.1-2004/CSA B44-04 and later.
1. A17.1/B44 code edition/addenda or jurisdiction dependent: (A) for ASME A17.1-2004/CSA B44-04 and later,
the machine room or hoistway sensor must be the sensor that initiated Fire Phase I for the hat to flash; or (B) for
earlier editions of A17.1/B44, the fire hat will flash any time the machine room or hoistway sensor is active,
regardless of which device initiated Fire Phase I. Also, some jurisdictions occasionally modify the A17.1/B44
requirements, so please consult with the jurisdictional authorities for additional requirements.
The NUDG output can also be used to activate a buzzer. The PHE (Photo Eye) input
will be ignored during nudging if the Stuck Photo Eye Protection option has been
selected (See STUCK PHOTO EYE PROTECTION? on page 4-19). A Safety Edge or
Door Open Button input will stop the doors from closing, but will not reopen the doors
fully. Nudging Operation will begin when the Nudging Timer elapses. The Nudging
Timer starts when the regular door timer elapses. (See NUDGING TIMER (Range:
10-240 Seconds) on page 4-24.)
STUCK PHOTO EYE PROTECTION?
When enabled, causes controller to ignore PHE (Photo Eye) input and close the doors
after the Nudging Timer elapses if the Nudging option is selected or when the Time
Out of Service Timer elapses, whichever comes first. If the Nudging option is not
selected, the PHE input will be ignored when the Time Out of Service Timer elapses.
(See TIME OUT OF SERVICE TIMER (Range: 15-240 Seconds, or None) on page 4-
24 for more details.)
If the Stuck Photo Eye Protection option is not selected, a PHE input that is stuck ON
will keep the doors open indefinitely.
SEQUENTIAL DOOR OPER. (F/R)?
Available only if independent rear doors are present. If set to YES, the front and rear
doors of the car will not open at the same time. If the controller receives a front and
rear call to the same landing, the car will first open and close the front doors, then
open and close the rear doors. The default is to open the front doors first unless the
rear doors have already started to open.
CAR CALL CANCELS DOOR TIME?
If selected, pressing a car call button when the doors are fully open will cause the doors
to start closing. There is one exception. If the car is stopped at a floor, pressing the car
call button for that same floor will not cause the doors to close, but will cause the doors
to reopen if they are in the process of closing.
NUDGING DURING FIRE PH. 1?
If selected, the controller will turn ON the NUDG output while the doors are closing
during Fire Phase 1. The NUDG output signals the door operator to close the doors at
reduced speed. This is useful for elevators that do not have mechanical safety edges.
During Fire Phase 1, all smoke sensitive reopening devices must be disabled. This
includes photo eyes and other devices that use infrared beams. If there are no other
reopening devices active, the doors should close at reduced speed.
4-19
User Interface
If selected, the controller will turn OFF the door close signal when the doors are closed
instead of waiting for the doors to be locked. More precisely, the controller will turn
OFF the door close output signal (DCF) when the DCLC (Doors Closed Contact) input
is ON or when the DCL (Door Close Limit) input is OFF, instead of waiting for the DLK
(Door Lock) input to turn ON.
PRE-OPENING?
If selected, the controller will begin to open the doors just before the car stops at a
floor. More precisely, the controller will turn ON the DOF (Door Open Function) out-
put signal when the DZ (Door Zone) input turns ON. Typically, the DZ input first turns
ON when the car is about 3 inches away from the final stopping point. Not recom-
mended for elevators that spend an extended period of time leveling.
MECHANICAL SAFETY EDGE?
If selected, Nudging Operation will cycle until the doors are fully closed. Otherwise, the
nudging function will operate continuously to comply with code requirements where a
door reopening device is not used (See NUDGING? on page 4-19 for more details).
NUDGING OUTPUT/BUZZER ONLY?
If selected with the Nudging option, NUDG output will be activated when Nudging
Timer elapses. However, if either the Mechanical Safety Edge or the Door Open button
is activated, the doors will stop and reopen fully. If this option is not selected, the doors
will simply stop under these circumstances, but will not reopen fully. This option may
be useful when only a nudging buzzer is required but actual Nudging Operation is not
needed (See NUDGING? on page 4-19 for more details). With this option and the
NUDGING option both set to YES, DOOR CLOSE PROTECTION TIMER ELAPSED
faults are not generated.
D.C.B. CANCELS DOOR TIME?
When doors are fully open, this option will cancel any pre-existing door time and cause
the doors to start closing when the Door Close button is pressed.
LEAVE DOORS OPEN ON MGS?
With this option set to yes and the MG Shutdown input active, once the car has
stopped at a floor, the doors will remain open instead of cycling closed.
LEAVE DOORS OPEN ON PTI/ESS?
With this option set to yes and either the Power Transfer (PTI) input or the Elevator
Shutdown Switch (ESS) input selected and active, once the car has stopped at a floor,
the doors will remain open instead of cycling closed.
NUDGING DURING FIRE PHASE 2?
If selected, the controller will turn ON the NUDG output while the doors are closing
during Fire Service Phase II. The NUDG output signals the door operator to close the
doors at reduced speed.

When the timer expires, the Timed Out of Service Indicator on the HC-MPU board will
turn ON. The controller will ignore the PHE (Photo Eye) input if the Stuck Photo Eye
Protection option is selected. In duplex or group installations, hall calls assigned to the
car will be assigned to another car. When the car closes its doors and begins to move
again, it will return to Normal service.
MOTOR LIMIT TIMER (Range: 1.0 - 6.0 Minutes)
Timer starts when the controller attempts to move the car and is reset when the car
reaches its destination floor. If the timer expires before the car reaches its destination,
the controller stops trying to move the car to protect the motor. The car is then shut
down. The Motor Limit Timer Indicator (MLT) on the HC-MPU board will turn ON.
MGR OUTPUT TIMER (Range: 1.0 - 27.0 Minutes)
Timer starts when car is idle at floor. When timer elapses, the motor/generator is shut
down. Upon demand, the motor/generator will be restarted and brought up to readi-
ness before the car can move.

DOUBLE STRIKE ON DOWN?
Causes lanterns and gongs to double-strike if car direction preference is down.
PFG ENABLE BUTTON? (Passing Floor Gong Enable Button)
If selected, the Passing Floor Gong will operate only when initiated by a momentary
pressure button. Once initiated, the Passing Floor Gong will operate for the current
direction of travel but will be rendered inoperative when the car reverses direction.
The PFGE spare input should also be selected if this option is turned ON. (See Spare
Inputs Menu on page 4-27.)

During Phase 2 of Emergency Power Operation, if the car Emergency Power Run
(EPRUN) input is activated, the car will run normally. Otherwise, the car will remain
at the emergency power return floor and will not respond to calls.
For a simplex controller, the car EPRUN input is sometimes connected to a switch so
that the input can be turned ON or OFF. For a duplex controller, both car EPRUN
inputs are usually connected to a Run Selection switch. The position of this switch
determines which car will run during Phase 2 of Emergency Power Operation.
Often, there is an AUTO position on the Run Selection switch connected to the AUTO
input on both controllers in a duplex. If the AUTO input is activated, one car will be
automatically selected to run during Phase 2 of Emergency Power Operation. For
example: If one car happens to be out of service when the operation begins, the other
car will be automatically selected to run.
If the Emergency Power option is selected, appropriate spare inputs should be config-
ured also. See Spare Inputs Menu on page 4-27.
LIGHT LOAD WEIGHING? / LIGHT LOAD CAR CALL LIMIT
Used only when the Light Load Weigher Input is activated. (See Spare Inputs Menu
on page 4-27.) To program this option:
Activate the LLI input.
Set LIGHT LOAD WEIGHING? to NO or press S to select the maximum number of car calls
registered before all car calls are canceled.
If S is pressed, the display will read LIGHT LOAD CAR CALL LIMIT.
Press S until the desired number is displayed.
Note
Light Load Weighing/Light Load Car Call Limit is an anti-nuisance feature. It is designed to
prevent a single person in the car from placing multiple car calls to delay the car.
Note
Photo Eye Anti-Nuisance/Consec Stops w/o PHE Limit is an anti-nuisance feature designed to
prevent a single person from remaining in the car and joy-riding for multiple calls.
MG SHUTDOWN OPERATION?
If set to Yes, if a car is idle for a period of time in excess of the MGR timer, it will recall
to its parking floor and shut down.
DEDICATED CARD READER SECURITY?

I/O only. No non-security I/O may be connected to these boards.
CARD REDR INPUTS- STACKED C/H? YES/NO - (Applies only if Dedicated Card
Reader Security = Yes)
No = each UIO boards connections will be of only one type (hall reader or car panel
reader).
Yes = car and hall security may be serviced by different connections on the same UIO
board. It will then need clarification as to which calls must be accommodated, see explana-
tion below:
UIO Board/Security Enforcement/Connection Order
The maximum number of security signal connections for a single floor is four: One each
for front and rear control panels and one each for front and rear hall stations. In reality,
each floor may not require all four inputs; for example, some floors may not have rear
doors while others do. In order to use UIO board connections most efficiently, the system
uses the floor service map set up through Basic Features, and information from the fol-
lowing four prompts, to set aside the actual number of security connections required for
each floor. Note: If the information is available, before the system is shipped, these
options are factory-set and you may simply follow the job prints to make connections.

This section is not applicable to discrete input load weighers. Please refer to Load Weigher on
page 3-22 or to manufacturer instructions for the installed load weigher.
Analog load weighers provide a signal that corresponds to the load in the car. This value is used
to make dispatching decisions. Load thresholds are user-programmable.
LIGHT LOAD WEIGHER (LLW)
Used to define the load at which the number of car calls will be limited (anti-nuisance).
If the programmed number of car calls is exceeded, all car calls are canceled.
Example: LLW=20%. If the load in the car is less than 20%, the computer will only
allow a certain number of car calls to be registered as defined by the parameter LIGHT
LOAD WEIGHING? / LIGHT LOAD CAR CALL LIMIT in the EXTRA FEATURES
MENU OPTIONS. If the limit is set to a value of three, the computer will only allow
three calls to be registered if the load is less than 20%. If a fourth call is registered, all
car calls will be canceled.
Adjusting Thresholds
Typical values for load thresholds are shown below. Thresholds are user-adjustable.
To adjust thresholds
1. Enter SYSTEM mode (F3 up, all others down).

2. With the desired measuring units displayed, press S to begin diagnostics display.
The initial display is for MPI-A (Processor A on the MPI board), address zero. This address dis-
plays the number of floors served two in this example.
3. To select the parameter to display, use the S button to move between digits (processor A,
B, or C or address positions 0000 - 9999) the selected digit will flash and the Plus
(+) or Minus (-) buttons to change the value of the selected digit.
For example, to display to speed recorded by MPI Processor B the last time the car passed the
Down Normal Terminal switch S2, select MPI-B, address 0019.
To find the address of the data you want to display, check the following tables.
MPI-A and MPI-B independently collect information from the Elgo positioning sen-
sors. The information they display per address should usually match. However, if you
are displaying position information, you need to factor in that the sensors they moni-
tor in the Elgo sensor head are 160 mm (6.3 inches) or 230 mm (9.05 inches) apart.
MPI-C collects information from the drive/motor/encoder.
As soon as you select an address, the information stored there is displayed.

Parameters
Floor Heights Parameters 1 through 64 represent floor heights within the building.
Floor heights are stored as absolute values referenced to the first floor, which is always initially
displayed as 0.0 inches. You have already learned all floor heights in the building (F6), so they
will be displayed as you progress. For all floors and openings, you should need only to view data 4
and press Next to continue. They are here so that, should it be necessary later, you can adjust a
floor height here without having to relearn all floors.
Parameter name
Parameter value. Adjust
using the + or - buttons.
Parameter ID
1. Press Next. The display will update to show the next opening/floor.
2. Continue using Next to move through the floors and openings.
Bottom Access Distance, 65 This sets the distance above the bottom floor level at
which the bottom access switch is placed. The value is entered in inches (1/10 inch incre-
ments). The Bottom Access Distance must be set such that it prevents the car from moving up
beyond the point where the bottom of the toe guard is even with the hoistway entrance header.
Top Access Distance, 66 This sets the distance below the top floor level at which the
top access switch is placed. The value is entered in inches (1/10 inch increments). The Top
Access Distance must be set such that it prevents the car from moving down beyond the point
where the crosshead is even with the hoistway entrance sill.
Note
Hoistway Access: Hoistway access allows the car to be moved to gain access to the car top or to
the car bottom through hall and car doors. An enable switch in the car operating panel must be
set to enable access, at which point switches at designated landings allow the car to be moved
down to access the cartop or up to access the car bottom. Safety considerations will normally
not allow the car to move with doors open, so Car Door Bypass and Hoistway Door Bypass
switches on the HC-CTL-2 board in the controller must also be set to Bypass positions before
access is possible.
4-149
User Interface
Note
Counterweight Position: Leave at the learned value. This parameter is provided here so that,
should it be necessary, this position can be adjusted without having to re-learn floor heights.
Directional Limit Distance, 68 This is the distance in inches at which the Directional
Limit switches are placed beyond the terminal floor level positions. The value is entered in
inches and is computed from the position of terminal floor levels. For example, a value of 2.0
would place the switches 2 past the level at floor position for each terminal.
If the car fails to stop level at the terminal, this switch will prevent the car from traveling fur-
ther past the terminal landing. These switches must be positioned between the terminal floor
level and the mechanical Final Limit Switches. If a car reaches the Final Limit Switch, the hoist-
way safety string will open and it will be necessary to jumper out the safeties to move the car off
the limit.
Use the + or - buttons to select the kind of switch used on your job (Virtual/Physical/
Unused). For jobs below 400 FPM, NTS-1 is used as the Slowdown Limit switch.

UETS Speed, 75 This is the speed, in feet per minute, which the car must be below when
opening the Up Emergency Terminal Switch. This value, plus the value of the UETS Delta Speed
settings, must not exceed 95% of Contract Speed.
Note
UETS Switch: Depending upon the speed of the job, the Emergency Terminal Switch may be
positioned differently. Refer to your job drawings package.
UETS Distance, 76 This is the distance in inches from the top terminal floor level posi-
tion at which the Up Emergency Terminal Switch is placed. This value is learned: Please refer to
Learning the Hoistway, Positioning ETS on page 3-2.
UETS Delta Distance, 77 This is the distance in inches on either side of the Up Emer-
gency Terminal Switch position inside which the car must detect the Up Emergency Terminal
Switch. If the switch is not detected within this span, the car will perform an emergency stop.
Generally set to 6.0 inches.
UETS Delta Speed, 78 Delta Speed provides an adder to UETS speed. UETS speed
and Delta speed together may not exceed 95% of contract speed. The switch speed is learned:
Please refer to Learning the Hoistway, Positioning ETS on page 3-2. Initially, calculate the
Delta as 95% of Contract Speed - Learned Speed @ switch = Delta value.
Note
The UETS Speed setting plus the Delta Speed setting determines the speed which the car must
be below in order to avoid an emergency stop. If you are tripping an ETS fault during car setup,
you can choose to increase the ETS speed above contract speed or disable the ETS switches by
setting them to Unused until you have sufficient control of the car.
Reduced Stroke Buffers Where reduced stroke buffers are used, the ETS inputs on
the TC-MPI are used as ETSL (Emergency Terminal Slowdown) switches. ETSL position will be
located at 90% of the reduced stroke buffer rated speed. ETSL Delta Speed will be 5% of the
reduced stroke buffer rated speed. If ETSL is too far below the speed curve, you can adjust the
Delta Speed closer to 10% of the reduced stroke buffer rated speed.
Note
Delta speeds are always added to the base speed at the switch. For example, if contract speed is
250 FPM, and learned switch Speed is 200 FPM, the Delta Low Speed is 6 FPM, and the Delta
High Speed is 25 FPM, the low and high overspeed limits will be 206 FPM and 225 FPM respec-
tively.

UNTS1 Speed, 79 Learned value (percentage of Contract Speed) at which the car
should be traveling when encountering this switch during a normal run to the terminal in order
for normal stopping means to properly slow and stop the car. Please refer to Learning the
Hoistway, Positioning ETS on page 3-2.
UNTS1 Distance, 80 This is the distance in inches from the associated terminal floor
level position at which this Normal Terminal Switch is placed. This value is learned: Please refer
to Learning the Hoistway, Positioning ETS on page 3-2. NTS1 switches also provide a defini-
tive position check for the PI system.
UNTS1 Delta Distance, 81 This is the distance in inches on either side of the Up Nor-
mal Terminal Switch 1 position inside which the car must detect the Up Normal Terminal
Switch. If the switch is not detected within this span, the car will drop high speed. Generally set
to 6.0 inches.
UNTS1 Delta Low Speed, 82 Nominal value is 3% of Learned Speed. Please refer to
Normal Terminal Switch Parameter Explanations on page 4-153.
UNTS1 Delta High Speed, 83 Nominal value is 10% of Contract Speed or 20 FPM,
whichever is higher. Please refer to Normal Terminal Switch Parameter Explanations on
page 4-153.
UNTS2, 3, 4, 5 Speed, Distance, and Delta just as with UNTS-1 but with distances and
speeds per your Contract Speed. For any switch that has been set to unused, parameters can
all be set to 0.0.
Below 400 FPM: NTS2/3/4/5 switches normally set to unused unless the job has
reduced stroke buffers.
DETS Speed, 104 This is the speed, in feet per minute, which the car must be below
when opening the Down Emergency Terminal Switch. This value, plus the value of the DETS
Delta Speed settings, must not exceed 95% of Contract Speed.
Note

DETS Switch: Depending upon the speed of the job, the Emergency Terminal Switch may be
positioned differently. Refer to your job drawings package.
DETS Distance, 105 This is the distance in inches from the bottom terminal floor level
position at which the Down Emergency Terminal Switch is placed. During a normal run, the car
should be at 80% of Contract Speed at this point. This value is learned: Please refer to Learning
the Hoistway, Positioning ETS on page 3-2.
DETS Delta Distance, 106 This is the distance in inches on either side of the Down
Emergency Terminal Switch position inside which the car must detect the Down Emergency
Terminal Switch. If the switch is not detected within this span, the car will perform an emer-
gency stop. Generally set to 6.0 inches.
DETS Delta Speed, 107 Delta Speed provides an adder to DETS speed. DETS speed
and Delta speed together may not exceed 95% of contract speed. The switch speed is learned:
Please refer to Learning the Hoistway, Positioning ETS on page 3-2. Initially, calculate the
Delta as 95% of Contract Speed - Learned Speed @ switch = Delta value.
Note
The DETS Speed setting plus the Delta Speed setting determines the speed which the car must
be below in order to avoid an emergency stop. If you are tripping an ETS fault during car setup,
you can choose to increase the ETS speed above contract speed or disable the ETS switches by
setting them to Unused until you have sufficient control of the car.
DNTS1 Speed, 108 Learned value (percentage of Contract Speed) at which the car
should be traveling when encountering this switch during a normal run to the terminal in order
for normal stopping means to properly slow and stop the car. Please refer to Learning the
Hoistway, Positioning ETS on page 3-2.
DNTS1 Distance This is the distance in inches from the associated terminal floor level
position at which this Normal Terminal Switch is placed. This value is learned: Please refer to
Learning the Hoistway, Positioning ETS on page 3-2. NTS1 switches also provide a definitive
position check for the PI system.
DNTS1 Delta Distance, 110 This is the distance in inches on either side of the Down
Normal Terminal Switch 1 position inside which the car must detect the Down Normal Termi-
nal Switch. If the switch is not detected within this span, the car will drop high speed. Generally
set to 6.0 inches.
DNTS1 Delta Low Speed, 111 Nominal value is 3% of Learned Speed. Please refer to
Normal Terminal Switch Parameter Explanations on page 4-153.

issued and acknowledged before the brake should pick. The default time of 0 (zero) millisec-
onds should be appropriate for virtually all scenarios.
Speed Pick Delay, 134 The time in milliseconds after the brake is picked before the
speed command is issued. This setting is used to prevent beginning movement under a slow-
picking brake. The default of 500 milliseconds is a good starting point.

Drive Disable Delay, 138 The time in milliseconds after stopping at a floor which the
drive should maintain electrical control of the motor. May be used to compensate for a slow
dropping brake. The default time of 1250 milliseconds should be appropriate for virtually all
scenarios.
Speed Hysteresis Delay, 139 Provides a delay between when the speed command is
issued and when it begins to accelerate the load.
Profile Advance, 140 Compensates for lag in the control loop. Values from 50 mS to
130 mS are common.
Profile Scale, 141 Scales the curve to affect all associated speed settings. Typically used
to slow all speeds associated with a curve without having to change individual speed settings.
Useful for overspeed tests with the understanding that drive LF.22 will absolutely limit car
speed.
Standard Slew Slope, 142 Determines how aggressively or gradually the current
speed transitions to zero speed. Sets the maximum deceleration rate that the S curve is allowed
to command when the car is stopping from a speed near releveling speed or lower. If the stop is
harsh, reducing this value may provide a softer stop.
Danger Slew Slope, 143 Determines how aggressively or gradually the current speed
can transition to a lower or higher speed. Sets the maximum rate of acceleration/deceleration
the S curve is allowed to command when the car is running and when the car is stopping from a
speed greater than releveling speed. Reducing this value forces a more gradual transition.
4-157
User Interface
Slew Filter, 144 Smooths any harsh transitions in the commanded speed for all operat-
ing modes except Inspection. Reducing this value causes a smoother transition.
Contract Overspeed, 145 The setting in feet per minute above contract speed at
which a contract overspeed is detected and an emergency stop initiated. Generally set to about
8% above contract speed with variance due to the tracking accuracy of the drive/motor.
8% x contract speed + contract speed = overspeed
Example for 350 FPM: 8% of 350 = 28 + 350 = 378 FPM
Inspection Overspeed, 146 The setting in feet per minute above inspection speed at
which an inspection overspeed is detected and an emergency stop initiated. Generally set to
about 8% above inspection speed with variance due to the tracking accuracy of the drive/motor.
8% x inspection speed + inspection speed = overspeed
Example for 50 FPM: 8% of 50 = 4 + 50 = 54 FPM
Leveling Overspeed, 147 The setting in feet per minute above leveling speed at
which a leveling overspeed is detected and an emergency stop initiated. Generally set to about
8% above leveling speed with variance due to the tracking accuracy of the drive/motor.
8% x leveling speed + leveling speed = overspeed
Example for 20 FPM: 8% of 20 = 1.6 + 20 = 21.6 FPM
Hoist Motor Speed, 148 Enter the motor RPM at which the car achieves contract
speed (TORQMAX LF.11). This information is available from the motor nameplate and is visible
on TORQMAX RU.7 when the car is running at contract speed. This rated motor RPM is the
synchronous motor RPM minus slip RPM.
Example for 6-pole geared machine: 1200 RPM (synchronous), 1165 RPM (rated).

High Speed, 150 Enter the high speed limit for the Standard curve. Normally set to the
same as Contract Speed. (Can be used to change car speed without changing profile.)
Intermediate Speed, 151 Enter the reduced speed at which the car is to run when
the SPI1 (Spare 1) input to the TC-MPI board is active. Intermediate speed uses the standard
curve.
Earthquake Speed, 152 If the elevator is allowed to run after a seismic event, this is
the speed that will be used. Default is 150 FPM.
Auxiliary Speed, 153 If the group control commands the car to run at economy speed,
this is the speed that will be used. The group may command cars to run at normal contract
speed during busy traffic or in response to a timer setting, or at reduced economy speed during
light traffic or in response to a timer setting. Selected when the SPI2 (Spare 2) input to the TC-
MPI board is active.
Backup Power Speed, 154 If commercial power is lost and the elevator has backup
power available, this is the speed that will be used.
Inspection Speed (Normal), 155 Enter the normal Inspection Speed for the car.
Inspection Speed (Reduced), 156 If the car reduces inspection speed upon
encountering normal or emergency terminal speed switches, enter that reduced speed here.
Correction Speed, 157 If the car should lose position, this is the speed at which it will 4
proceed to a known point to re-establish position. Default is 75 FPM.
Leveling Speed, 158 Leveling speed is the speed the car uses when initially leveling
into the door zone. Default is 4 FPM.
Re-Leveling Speed, 159 Should the car not level properly initially and require re-lev-
eling, this is the speed that will be used. Default is 6 FPM.
Leveling Distance, 160 This is the distance in inches (above and below) floor level at
which the car should slow to leveling speed. Initially, set to 4.0 inches. After initial tuning, 2.0
inches is generally sufficient.
Re-Leveling Distance, 161 If the car initially levels into the floor above or below this
distance from accurate level, a re-leveling operation will proceed.
Proximity Distance, 162 Determines the distance at which the speed is transitioned
to leveling speed under abnormal conditions like an emergency slowdown.

which the stop command is issued during initial leveling and the car coasts to a stop. Start
with 0.7 inches.
Standard Start Jerk, 165 Defines the transition from zero speed to full acceleration.
As Start Jerk increases, the profile transitions more quickly from starting to maximum acceler-
ation. Values typically range from 4.0 to 8.0 ft/s3 (1.219 to 2.438 m/s3) with higher values
resulting in a sharper start.
Standard Roll Jerk, 166 Roll Jerk determines how quickly the profile transitions
from maximum to zero acceleration and zero to maximum deceleration. As Roll Jerk increases,
the profile transitions more quickly. Lower values provide greater comfort but are harder to fit
into the shortest one-floor-runs. We recommend that you identify the shortest full height floor
and use it when testing parameter values. Typical values range from a minimum of 4.0 ft.
Standard Stop Jerk, 167 Defines the transition from deceleration to Leveling Speed.
As Stop Jerk increases, the profile transitions more quickly from Deceleration to Leveling
Speed.
Standard Acceleration, 168 Determines the maximum acceleration for the profile.
Determines the maximum current delivered by the AC Drive during acceleration. The maxi-
mum value is typically 4.0 ft/s2 (1.219 m/s2) and the minimum is usually not less than 2.5 ft/s2
(0.762 m/s2). Values higher than 4.0 ft/s2 (1.219 m/s2) are possible but do not yield significant
improvements in performance.

Manual Start Jerk, 170 Defines the transition from zero speed to full acceleration. As
Start Jerk increases, the profile transitions more quickly from starting to maximum accelera-
tion. Values typically range from 4.0 to 8.0 ft/s3 (1.219 to 2.438 m/s3) with higher values result-
ing in a sharper start.

of Deceleration is usually slightly less than the value of Acceleration (by 0.25 to 0.5).
Danger Start Jerk, 175 The Danger profile is used for emergency slowdown. If, after
stopping, the car restarts while remaining on the Danger curve, this setting defines the transi-
tion from zero speed to full acceleration. As Start Jerk increases, the profile transitions more
quickly from starting to maximum acceleration.
Danger Roll Jerk, 176 Roll Jerk determines how quickly the profile transitions from
maximum to zero acceleration and zero to maximum deceleration. As Roll Jerk increases, the
profile transitions more quickly.
Danger Stop Jerk, 177 Defines the transition from deceleration to stop. As Stop Jerk
increases, the profile transitions more quickly.
Danger Deceleration, 178 Determines the maximum deceleration for this profile.
Alternate Start Jerk, 179 Defines the transition from zero speed to full acceleration.
As Start Jerk increases, the profile transitions more quickly from starting to maximum acceler-
ation. Values typically range from 4.0 to 8.0 ft/s3 (1.219 to 2.438 m/s3) with higher values
resulting in a sharper start.
Alternate Roll Jerk, 180 Roll Jerk determines how quickly the profile transitions
from maximum to zero acceleration and zero to maximum deceleration. As Roll Jerk increases,
the profile transitions more quickly. Lower values provide greater comfort but are harder to fit
into the shortest one-floor-runs. We recommend that you identify the shortest full height floor
and use it when testing parameter values. Typical values range from a minimum of 4.0 ft.

The maximum value is typically 4.0 ft/s and the minimum is usually not less than 2.0 ft/s2
2
with more common values ranging from 2.75 ft/s2 to 3.75 ft/s2 (0.838 to 1.143 m/s2). The value
of Deceleration is usually slightly less than the value of Acceleration (by 0.25 to 0.5).
Drive Type, 184 Check the TORQMAX drive software version at parameter LF.80. If it
is 1.71 or greater, select KEB F5-GRD50 (geared machines) or KEB F5-GLS50 (gearless
machine). Otherwise, select KEB F5-GRD49 (geared) or KEB F5GLS49 (gearless).
Brake Type, 185 Motion 4000 may be configured with one or two brake modules or a
straight brake drop / brake pick brake (Discrete). Select the controller brake configuration.
Emergency Brake, 186 This setting selects or disables the emergency brake option.
Emergency Brake reset button requires constant pressure for 5 to 8 seconds to clear.
Disabled: Set to Disabled if the job does not use an emergency brake or rope gripper.
Rope Gripper: Select if job uses a rope gripper.
Sheave Brake: Select if job uses a sheave brake.
Machine Brake: Select if second machine brake used as the emergency brake.

reduce inspection speed to Inspection Speed Reduced (156) value when an Emergency Terminal
or Normal Terminal Slowdown switch is encountered.
Off: Inspection speed remains as set throughout the hoistway.
ETS: Inspection speed is automatically reduced when the car is running on inspection and
encounters an Emergency Terminal Switch.
NTS-1/-2/-3/-4/-5: Inspection speed is automatically reduced when the car is running on
inspection and encounters the selected Normal Terminal Slowdown switch.

User Interface
Following Error, 189 Following error sets the allowed margin of deviation from com-
manded speed as a percentage of that speed. An encoder error will be generated if the actual
speed differs from the commanded speed by more than specified here. For example, if com-
manded speed is 250 FPM and Following Error is set to 5% (5% of 250 is 12.5), then the actual
speed will be allowed to differ from 250 FPM by +/- 12.5 FPM without generating the error.
Sheave Brake Idle Delay, 190 Appears if Sheave Brake is the selected emergency
brake (186). When a car is idle, the sheave brake will drop after the time set here expires. Allows
the brake to be exercised. Range is from 0 to 3600 seconds.
Landing System, 191 Select the landing system used on this job.
Elgo-160: Elgo system with sensors in the sensor head separated by 160mm.
Elgo-240: Elgo system with sensors in the sensor head separated by 240mm.
LS-EDGE: Magnet/Vane landing system.
Note
The sensor heads for the Elgo-160 and -240 systems are visibly different. The -160 sensor head
is about 13.25 inches (336 mm) long while the -240 sensor head is about 19.00 inches (482
mm) long.
Speed Drop Delay, 192 Parameter appears only when a Magnetek HPV600,
HPV900, or QUATTRO drive is selected in parameter 184, Drive Type. The time in milliseconds
during which the drive should continue to exert motor control after the direction command is
removed (car has achieved the floor but brake has not yet dropped). Used for drives that do not
independently provide a parameter to extend this period of control. Delay should be equal to or
greater than the sum of brake drop delay and time required for the brake shoes to seat fully.
Profile Compensation, 193 Selects the method used to implement Profile Advance,
parameter 140 (used to advance application of the speed profile to compensate for internal con-
trol lag within the elevator drive). Helpful during runs in which the elevator does not achieve
stable contract speed (i.e., short runs) and pattern transition command/drive reaction lag may
cause a bump in the ride.
Fixed: Compensates for drive control lag using the fixed value entered in parameter 140,
Profile Advance through all stages of control. Recommended for new installations.
Too much compensation can cause an abrupt transition between acceleration and deceler-
ation at peak speed. Using fixed compensation will probably require a little experimenta-
tion to achieve good starts and a smooth ride but will provide better results once dialed in.
Required when a Magnetek HPV600, HPV900, or QUATTRO drive is used.
Dynamic: Compensates for drive control lag during the deceleration stage only using a
variable percentage of the value entered in parameter 140, Profile Advance. Recom-
mended to provide backwards compatibility when upgrading Motion 4000
software in existing installations. (Previous versions always used Dynamic compen-
sation; fixed compensation was not an option.)
Normal Brake Pick Voltage, 194 When a CAN controlled brake module is used, this
setting determines pick voltage applied to the normal machine brake. See Calibration (CAN
Only) on page 5-85.
Normal Brake Hold Voltage, 195 When a CAN controlled brake module is used,
this setting determines hold voltage applied to the normal machine brake. See Calibration
(CAN Only) on page 5-85.
Normal Brake Relevel Voltage, 196 When a CAN controlled brake module is used,
this setting determines relevel voltage applied to the normal machine brake. See Calibration 4
(CAN Only) on page 5-85.
Normal Brake Lift Rate, 197 When a CAN controlled brake module is used, this set-
ting determines the lift rate of the normal machine brake. 100% = fastest lift rate.
Normal Brake Drop Rate, 198 When a CAN controlled brake module is used, this
setting determines the drop rate of the normal machine brake. 100% = fastest drop rate.
Emergency Brake Type, 199 This setting selects the method of control for the emer-
gency brake. (CAN) Module or Discrete. Appears only if parameter 186 has been used to select
an emergency brake type.
Emergency Brake Pick Voltage, 200 Only if Module is selected in 199. Determines
the pick voltage applied to the emergency machine brake. See Calibration (CAN Only) on
page 5-85.
Emergency Brake Hold Voltage, 201 Only is Module is selected in 199. Deter-
mines the hold voltage applied to the emergency machine brake. See Calibration (CAN Only)
on page 5-85.
Landing System Floor Checksum, 203 This is a read only value. When the hoist-
way is learned with the LS-EDGE landing system, the learned parameters are stored in the
landing system sensor and this checksum is both stored in the sensor and sent to the controller.
If the controller should read a different checksum (i.e., if the sensor head is changed), a new
hoistway learn must be performed.
Landing System ETS Overspeed, 204 Used to set the LS-EDGE landing system
hardware ETS overspeed threshold as a percentage of contract speed. Magnets on the landing
system tape (one lane for UETS and another for DETS) are monitored by the LS-EDGE, detect-
ing the speed at which the car passes. The controller still allows a virtual/physical ETS switch in
addition to the magnets.
Inspection Slew Filter, 205 Smooths any harsh transitions in the commanded speed
for inspection modes of operation. Reducing this value causes a smoother transition.
Battery Backup Speed, 206 If commercial power is lost and the elevator has battery
backup power available, this is the speed that will be used.

Troubleshooting
If a measured resistance is other than shown, you may have a damaged, broken, or shorted wire in the
traveler. Resolve this issue before proceeding with additional troubleshooting.
CHANNEL A
1. If the lost channel is the A (CAN 2) channel, verify cartop mounted UIO board baud rate selection is
correct, 5-59. Next, unplug all HC-CPI (control panel interface) and HC-UIO (universal I/O) board CAN
connections from the MC-LSI (landing system interface board) on the cartop (CAN 2 is a shared
bus).Recheck the display to see if both channels are now back on line.
2. If the ELGO channels are now OK, reconnect the UIO boards one at a time. If the channel is lost, check
the CAN terminations on the UIO board. If the board is terminated, open the termination by moving
the jumper so the header pins are not shorted. Repeat for additional UIO boards, checking ELGO infor-
mation as you go.
3. Check the car panel interface boards to see that only the last board in the string is terminated (CAN).
Reconnect the CPI boards. Check ELGO information. If the A channel is lost again as you reconnect
boards, contact MCE support for help in isolating the bad board or termination.
4. If, after disconnecting the CPI and UIO boards, the A channel remained off line, temporarily connect
CAN 1 connections to CAN 2 on the TC-MPI board. Place the processor F3 switch down and check the
error code on the display:
MPI-A INCORRECT LANDING SYSTEM CONNECTED - replace the ELGO reader head
MPI-A LANDING SYSTEM COMM LOSS - continue numbered steps.
5. Temporarily connect CAN 2 connections to CAN 1 on the TC-MPI board. If the message changes to MPI-
A INCORRECT LANDING SYSTEM CONNECTED, replace the ELGO reader head. If the message remains
MPI-A LANDING SYSTEM COMM LOSS, replace the TC-MPI board.
CHANNEL B
1. If the lost channel is the B (CAN 1) channel, temporarily connect CAN 2 to CAN 1 on the TC-MPI board.
2. If the display changes to MPI-B INCORRECT LANDING SYSTEM CONNECTED, replace the TC-MPI board.
3. If the message remains MPI-B LANDING SYSTEM COMM LOSS, replace the ELGO reader head.

FCL 1 - 4 - AUX IGBT STUCK CLOSED
Description: The addressed brake module auxiliary IGBT is stuck in the closed position. This fault is trig-
gered if the voltage across the Aux IGBT is insufficient to activate the monitoring circuit during dissipate
mode. The car will stop at the next destination. Three consecutive occurrence faults reset automatically
after 8 seconds. If the module consecutively faults again, fault Brake Module Fault Limit Reached is
issued and must be reset on the HC-CTL-2 board.
Troubleshooting:
1. Slow the brake drop rate slightly using module potentiometer R70 (discrete control) or F7 parameter
198 (CAN control). (The brake may be dropping too rapidly for the voltage sensing to work properly.)
2. Contact MCE to verify the resistor/capacitor values of the external dissipate circuit. Too much capaci-
tance on a small brake may cause this fault.
FCL 1 - 4 - AUX IGBT STUCK OPEN
Description: The addressed brake module auxiliary IGBT is stuck in the open position. This fault is trig-
gered if the brake is in pick, hold, or relevel mode and the monitoring circuit returns a high signal for
100mS or more. The car will stop at the next landing. The first and second consecutive occurrence faults
reset automatically after 8 seconds. If the module consecutively faults again, fault Brake Module Fault
Limit Reached is issued and must be reset on the HC-CTL-2 board.
Troubleshooting: Replace the brake module.
FCL 1 - 4 - BYPASS BUTTON STUCK CLOSED
Description: The addressed brake module is in manual release mode and the bypass button/switch
appears to be stuck in the closed position.
Troubleshooting: Please see SW1, Manual Bypass on page 5-83 to see if manual release mode is
enabled. Check the manual brake release switch connections and operation. If the problem persists,

Troubleshooting
If a measured resistance other than about 120-ohms, you may have a damaged, broken, or shorted
wire in the traveler. Resolve this issue before proceeding with additional troubleshooting.
CHANNEL A
1. If the lost channel is the A (CAN 2) channel, unplug all HC-CPI (control panel interface) and HC-UIO
(universal I/O) board CAN connections from the TC-LSI (landing system interface board) on the cartop
(CAN 2 is a shared bus).Recheck the display to see if both channels are now back on line.
2. If the ELGO channels are now OK, reconnect the UIO boards one at a time. If the channel is lost, check
the CAN terminations on the UIO board. If the board is terminated, open the termination by moving
the jumper so the header pins are not shorted. Repeat for additional UIO boards, checking ELGO infor-
mation as you go.
3. Check the HC-CPI boards to see that only the last board in the string is terminated (CAN). Reconnect
the CPI boards. Check ELGO information. If the A channel is lost again as you reconnect boards, con-
tact MCE support for help in isolating the bad board or termination.
4. If, after disconnecting the CPI and UIO boards, the A channel remained off line, temporarily connect
CAN 1 connections to CAN 2 on the TC-MPI board. Place the processor F3 switch down and check the
error code on the display:
MPI-A INCORRECT LANDING SYSTEM CONNECTED - replace the ELGO reader head
MPI-A LANDING SYSTEM COMM LOSS - continue numbered steps.
5. Temporarily connect CAN 2 connections to CAN 1 on the TC-MPI board. If the message changes to MPI-
A INCORRECT LANDING SYSTEM CONNECTED, replace the ELGO reader head. If the message remains
MPI-A LANDING SYSTEM COMM LOSS, replace the TC-MPI board.
CHANNEL B
1. If the lost channel is the B (CAN 1) channel, temporarily connect CAN 2 to CAN 1 on the TC-MPI board.
2. If the display changes to MPI-B INCORRECT LANDING SYSTEM CONNECTED, replace the TC-MPI board.
3. If the message remains MPI-B LANDING SYSTEM COMM LOSS, replace the ELGO reader head.
MPI A or B LANDING SYSTEM FAULT (EMERGENCY BRAKE DROPPED)
Description: The emergency brake dropped due to a landing system fault while the door gate and door
lock were open. The landing system fault is either (MPI-A/B) Relative Position High, Relative Position Low,

Duplexing
Duplexing allows one car controller to assign hall calls to itself and one other car. Duplexing
requires a connecting cable and selecting the Duplex option (see F1: Program Mode on
page 4-11). Duplexing improves hall call assignment, increases efficiency, and decreases wait
times.
Dispatching Algorithm
The dispatching algorithm for assigning hall calls is real-time, based on estimated time of
arrival (ETA). In calculating the estimated time of arrival for each elevator, the dispatcher will
consider, but not be limited to, the location of each elevator, direction of travel, existing hall and
car call demand, door time, flight time, lobby removal time penalty, and coincidence call.
Hardware Connections
There are three critical points in duplexing hardware:
Proper grounding between the two controller subplates
Proper installation of the duplexing cable
Jumper JP3 on each HC-MPU board must be in position
Hall calls will be connected to both cars simultaneously. Once in duplex configuration, either of
the two controllers can become the dispatcher of hall calls. The controller that assumes the dis-
patching duty on power up remains the dispatching processor until it is taken out of service. If,
for any reason, the communication link between the two controllers does not function, each car
will respond to the registered hall calls independently.
In a duplexing configuration, the controller that assumes dispatching duty is identified by the
letter D in the upper left corner of the LCD. The other car is identified by the letter S, in the
upper left corner of the LCD. If the upper left-hand corner of the LCD is blank (neither D nor S
displayed), the cars are not communicating, and troubleshooting will be required to determine
the cause.
Power Phasing
When cars are paired for duplex operation, input power phasing to the two must match.
1. Connect a multimeter, set for AC voltage, between a 2 Bus terminal on one controller
and a 2 Bus terminal on the second controller. If the meter reads close to zero (0) volts,
the two are in phase. If not:
Swap two of the L1/L2/L3 inputs on one car and repeat step 1.

HC-MPU Battery
The battery sustains volatile information when the power is off. Controller operating parame-
ters are stored in battery backed memory and will not be affected by battery removal as long as
power is applied to the controller. The battery provides 3.3 VDC. If battery voltage falls below
2.2 VDC, the battery should be replaced. If battery replacement is part of a regular maintenance
schedule, we recommend it be replaced every two years.
Replacement:
1. Place the car on Inspection by placing the MODE switch on the HC-CTL (2) board in the
INSP position. DO NOT remove power to the controller as this will cause the HC-MPU
parameters to be reset to default values.
2. On the HC-MPU board, use a non-conductive flat tool to lift the battery tab and slide the
old battery out of the battery holder.
3. Install a new battery on the HC-MPU board.
4. Make a brief check of F1 parameters to verify that they have not become corrupted.
5. Return the car to service by placing the MODE switch on the HC-CTL (2) board in the
NORM position.

TC-MPI Board
The Motion Processor Interface board provides serial and discrete interface to selected AC or
DC drives. Redundant safety processors are also on this board as well as the connection points
for seismic and earthquake devices and for an emergency brake/rope gripper if one is used.
There are three, independent safety processors. Working in conjunction with position and 5
speed feedback sensors, and continuously monitoring one another, the three prevent the eleva-
tor from starting or bring it to an emergency stop if position/speed related errors are detected.
SPA (Safety Processor A): Working in conjunction with the PS1 positioning sensor (one of
two positioning sensors on the cartop), SPA performs Emergency Terminal Switch func-
tions and continuously monitors position and speed data from its sensor as well as contin-
uously comparing this data with data reported to SPB.
SPB (Safety Processor B): Working in conjunction with the PS2 positioning sensor (one of
two sensors on the cartop), SPB performs Normal Terminal Switch functions and moni-
tors PS2 position and speed data, continuously comparing this with data reported to SPA.
MP (Motion Processor): Primary functions are drive and speed control. Additionally,
monitors speed and direction from motor rotation and from PS1 positioning sensor. The
MP checks that both SPA/PS1 and SPB/PS2 systems are functioning properly by compar-
ing their data and ensuring that any discrepancy is within a fixed tolerance. Using PS1
data, the MP is also able to perform redundant checking of the ETS function.

Troubleshooting
Note
If the controller uses an M-Brake Module for the emergency brake, the emergency brake mod-
ule must be calibrated before any other brake module in the system is calibrated. An emergency
brake module is indicated when the EMERGENCY BRAKE option, parameter 186 on the F7
menu, is not set to DISABLED and the EMERGENCY BRAKE TYPE option, parameter 199 on
the F7 menu, is set to MODULE. Please note that the EMERGENCY BRAKE TYPE option will
not be displayed if the EMERGENCY BRAKE option is set to DISABLED.
1. On Machine Room Inspection, place the HC-MPU F5 function switch in the UP position.
2. Press N until the FCL BRAKE UNIT, UTILITIES MENU is displayed. Press S to select.
3. Press N to advance to FCL ADJUSTMENT MENU. Press S to select.
4. CALIBRATE FCL:1, [S]-SELECT will appear. Use +/- buttons to select appropriate mod-
ule number. Press S to begin calibration.
5. PICK A DIRECTION TO CALIBRATE will be displayed. Press and hold either UP or
DOWN direction. The display will show CALIBRATING FCL: STATUS: ...
6. Continue holding UP or DOWN direction until CALIBRATION DONE [N]-NEXT
appears. If UP or DOWN is released too soon, the display will report CALIBRATE
ABORT [N]-NEXT and the process must be repeated.
7. Repeat if additional modules must be calibrated.

F7 # Parameter Description
133 Normal Brake Pick Delay Time in milliseconds after drive enable command issued
and acknowledged before the brake should pick.
134 Speed Pick Delay Time in milliseconds after brake is picked before the speed
command is issued. Used to prevent beginning movement
under a slow-picking brake. Default 500.
135 Normal Brake Hold Delay After take off, the brake is held fully picked until this timer
expires, at which point, it settles to hold position/voltage.
Geared machine default 2000. Gearless machine default
800.
136 Normal Brake Drop Delay Delay in milliseconds that the brake should be delayed
from dropping after the speed command is dropped. Goal
is to avoid dropping the brake until the motor has just
stopped moving. Default 250.
138 Drive Disable Delay Time in milliseconds after stopping at a floor which the
drive should maintain electrical control of the motor. May
be used to compensate for a slow dropping brake. Default
1250.
139 Speed Hysteresis Delay Provides a delay between when the speed command is
issued and when it begins to accelerate the load.
185 Brake Type Module 1, Module 2, or Discrete. Select as configured.
186 Emergency Brake Selects or disables the emergency brake option. Disabled
= no emergency brake. Rope gripper = rope gripper.
Sheave brake = sheave brake. Machine brake = indepen-
dent machine brakes with one being used as the emer-
gency brake.
190 Sheave Brake Idle Delay Appears if sheave brake selected as emergency brake.
When car is idle, sheave brake will drop after the time set
here expires. Allows brake to be exercised. Time in sec-
onds.
194 Normal Brake Pick Voltage Set to pick voltage required by brake.
195 Normal Brake Hold Voltage Set to hold voltage required by brake.
196 Normal Brake Relevel Voltage Set to relevel voltage required by brake.
197 Normal Brake Lift Rate Set desired lift rate in percentage. 100% = Fastest lift
rate.
198 Normal Brake Drop Rate Set desired drop rate in percentage. 100% = Fastest
drop.
199 Emergency Brake Type Module or Discrete voltages control.
200 Emergency Brake Pick Voltage Only if Module selected in 199. Set required brake pick
voltage.
201 Emergency Brake Hold Voltage Only if Module selected in 199. Set required brake hold
voltage.
3. Pick a run direction. Verify that the brake picks cleanly. If not, readjust pick voltage in
F7 menu, save parameters, and retry.
4. After the brake settles to hold position, verify that the brake is not dragging. If neces-
sary, readjust hold voltage in F7 menu, save parameters, and retry.
5. On Inspection, pick direction and verify brake-related F7 delay/time/rate are as desired.
Upon dropping direction, verify brake-related F7 delay/time/rate are as desired. If nec- 5
essary, readjust settings and retry.
Only if a Manual Brake Pick Button is Used with CAN Control If a manual
brake pick button is used on this job (see SW1, Manual Bypass on page 5-83), pick voltage
applied when the button is active is determined by FCL potentiometer R67. To adjust:
1. On Inspection, move the car to mid-point position in the hoistway to allow the car to
safely drift up or down when the brake is picked. (Car must be appropriately counter-
balanced to avoid rapid movement.)
2. Set SW3 to enable manual pick.
3. Press the manual pick button, observe brake pick while adjusting R67 to minimum
required voltage for clean pick action.
Release the manual pick button. Take SW1 off manual pick mode.

If the working floor heights for the job were recorded, they can be used to manually set up floors
instead of running a new learn operation.
1. On Inspection Operation, verify the car is exactly level with floor 1. This will be the zero
reference.
2. Note the value displayed on the F3 Controller System menu, Elgo screen. For example:
ELGO A 0000999 mm
ELGO B 0000839 mm
3. Through the F5 Controller Utilities menu, Default TC-MPI parameters, default the MPI
board.
4. Set the F6 switch up (all others down). The display will prompt ELGO LEARN, PRESS
NEXT TO CONTINUE.
5. Press N. The display will prompt: GO TO LANDING 1. PRESS SELECT.
6. Press S. The display will prompt you to enter an offset. You are exactly level with the
floor so press N (DONE) without entering an offset.
7. The display will prompt you to move to the next floor and press SELECT. Instead,
remain at the first floor but press S as though you had moved. When prompted for an
offset value, simply press N (done).
8. Continue as described in Step 8 until all floors have been addressed. You will be
prompted to move the car adjacent to the counterweight. Do so, then press N.
9. You will be prompted to store values. Press S to do so. Upon seeing the VALUES ARE
STORED. LEARN IS NOW COMPLETE message, set the F6 switch to the DOWN posi-
tion.
F7 Entry
1. Obtain recorded floor heights to use as a reference.
2. Set the F7 switch UP (all others down).
3. Beginning with parameter 2 (Floor 2), re-enter floor height data for all floors.
4. Set the F7 switch DOWN.
5. Run the car to test landing accuracy. Adjust if needed.
The first COP-2 board contains standard dedicated car calls (see note) as follows:
Note
Note that the front car calls stack on each other. For example, if a car serves floors 1 through 3,
does not serve floor 4, but does serve floors above 4, floors above floor 4 will move down one
connection rather than leave an I/O open.

The fourth COP-2 board contains standard dedicated car calls (see note) as follows:
Note
Note that the rear car calls stack on each other. For example, if a car serves floors 1 through 3,
does not serve floor 4, but does serve floors above 4, floors above floor 4 will move down one
connection rather than leave an I/O open.
Note
Note that the rear car calls stack on each other. For example, if a car serves floors 1 through 3,
