PREFACE
ALC Series Lift Control System is designed to fulfil the requirements of the new EN81-20 / 50
standard for electric and hydraulic lifts. It supports a wide range of lift applications for up to 64
floors. ALC makes use of intelligent electronic units communicating via CAN-BUS in the overall
lift system. The system comes with three CAN ports which provide flexibility in connecting CAN-
units. The communication hardware between car and controller is designed to be a fault
tolerant CAN to increase the robustness to against any electronic disturbances in the
connection.
ALC supports parallel and serial communications for landing panels and group operations for up
to 8 lifts. There are various function boards in ALC system to support specific functions and
increase flexibility. It also has integrated lift access control system and VIP travel facilities in its
software to restrict the use of the lift.
ALC series has advanced data communication facilities. There are interfaces for ethernet, USB,
and Bluetooth connections in ALC series to enable any user to edit the parameters in the
controller, or observe the motion of the lift either by a computer or a mobile device locally or
via the internet.
In this manual, you will find detailed information about ALC Series Lift Control System. However
since there are continuous developments in software it is possible that the software version you
are using may not be fully compatible with this manual. If this is the case, you can download the
most recent manual in from www.aybey.com.
You can send a mail to [email protected] either to get more technical information about ALC
or to send any comments. Please feel free to contact us for any problems or suggestions. Bear in
mind that all these systems have been developed mainly by benefiting from the criticism of
customers and users.

CHAPTER 1 - DESCRIPTION OF THE SYSTEM
1.1) SERIAL COMMUNICATION AND CONFIGURATIONS
The communication between car and controller in ALC series is always serial. However the
landing panels can be connected both in serial and in parallel. The communication system is
CAN. When landings are parallel then the configuration is called as “car serial” and when
landings are serial then the configuration is called “full serial”. The serial interfaces between car
and controller are always in low speed and fault tolerant mode where the interface for landings
can be selected as low speed fault tolerant or high speed. The terminal board used in the
controller depends on the serial configuration. In full serial configuration ALSK terminal boards
and in car serial configuration ALPK terminal boards should be used.
1.2) CALL REGISTERS
1.2.a) CAR CALLS:

i) Not prewired systems: Car calls are collected by the car controller board SCB for
up to 16 stops. For more than 16 stops CAN-IO boards must be connected to the
car circuit to collect car calls. Each CAN-IO board has a 16-stop capacity.
ii) Prewired systems: Car calls are collected by the car controller board PWS for up
to 16 stops. For more than 16 stops APE boards must be connected to the car
circuit to collect car calls. Each APE board has a 16-stop capacity.
1.2.b) LANDING CALLS:

i) Car Serial Systems: The terminal board ALPK has 8 call registers onboard. An I/O
board can be plugged onto ALPK to increase the number of call registers to 16. For
greater numbers, CAN-IO boards must be added to increase number of landing call
registers. Each CAN-IO board has 16 call registers.
ii) Full serial systems: CAN landing units collect and send calls at the landings. No
additional board is required for any number of stops.
1.3) DOORS
ALC lift controller system supports two car doors separately. There are separate door open,
door close, photocell and door limit inputs for two doors. There are also various timers
associated with doors. Adequate door open checking tests in conformity to the lift standard
EN81-20/50 have been developed for one and two doors as well as full and semi-automatic
doors. The door bridging board SDB is always required to test the doors at arrival. Therefore it
must be plugged always onto ALC mainboard even when no relevelling and door pre-opening
are requested.
1.4) CAN PORTS

There are three CAN ports on ALC mainboard. One is built-in on the main board (C0) for low
speed fault tolerant mode and is used as default connection for the car. C1 and C2 ports require
an add-on CAN interface board to be plugged onto the mainboard to become active. However
any CAN port can be configured for any circuit (landing, car, group, absolute encoder, etc.).

1.6) SAFETY LINE

1.6.1) Safety line voltage:
The power supply of the safety circuit is labelled as 110 and 150, where 110 is the starting
terminal and 150 is the return terminal. Safety Circuit Voltage can be selected by the customer.
The voltages to be selected for safety circuit are 48Vdc, 60Vdc, 110Vac, 230Vac.
The coil voltages of contactors and valves must be exactly the same as the safety line voltage.
When this is not possible in the application then the coils of the contactors and /or valves cannot
be driven directly by the safety line. They must be driven by two contactors or safety relays which
are in conformity to the standard as shown in Figure 1.1 These additional relays or contactors
must be driven by the safety line and have the same coil voltages as the safety line. See Figure
1.1 for an example of such an application where the safety line voltage and contactor (or valves)
coil voltages are not the same.
Figure 1.1
F/7.5.5.02.102 R:0 8 ALC

1.6.2) Safety line structure:
Safety line starts to flow from the terminal 110 into the shaft devices. All devices, through which
the safety line must passes except lift doors, are to be between 110 and 120. 120 is the starting
point of the door safety contacts. The door circuit ends at the terminal 140. 140 is the end of the
safety line and the power source for the contactor and valve coils. When any door or any safety
contact in the shaft is open then there must be no voltage present at terminal 140. If it is present
then this means a wrong wiring or any fault in the devices.
The connection terminals of the shaft and the door contacts are found in wiring diagrams of the
related application. There are various connection diagrams for specific lift applications, door
types and number of doors. Please check first if the given electric diagram matches your
application exactly. Otherwise consult our support department to get the appropriate wiring
diagram before starting.
You can see the status of the safety line on the main screen indicated by letters ranging from A
to G, where G means that the safety line is closed. The LEDs labelled from 113 to 140 on the left
side of the ALC board screen shows the closed terminals of the safety line directly.
1.7) PANEL VOLTAGE

Except for the safety line, there is only one power supply in the system which is 24V dc. It is the
power source in the controller to supply all electronic boards, signals and detectors. The current
rating (power) of the supply must be selected by taking into consideration the current
consumption of the panels.
1.8) INPUTS
All inputs are 100% galvanically isolated from the microcontroller circuit since they are connected
via optocouplers to this circuit. Input functions and input terminal assignment procedure are
explained in chapter 3.
1.9) OUTPUTS
All inputs and outputs are 100% galvanically isolated from the microcontroller circuit since they
are connected via optocouplers to this circuit. Mainly relays are used as outputs. Some output
terminals are assigned to a specific function as default, such as RU, RH, RF whereas the others
are programmable. The user can assign any function to these programmable output terminals.
Output functions and output terminal assignment procedure are explained in chapter 4.
1.10) UNINTENTED CAR MOTION (UCM)
ALC controller system supports numerous UCM test and control facilities for geared, gearless
and hydraulic lift systems. There are a variety of manual and automatic UCM test routines
built in in the software. The UCM tests can be executed at any time manually as well as
automatically (periodically according to time (daily) or starting of the lift). This option can be
selected in parameter B37. UCM facilities are explained in detail in chapter 12.
1.11) CAR POSITION INFORMATION

In ALC car position information can be collected with magnet switches or encoders.
F/7.5.5.02.102 R:0 9 ALC

1.11.1) MAGNETIC SWITCHES
In this mode counter method is used and a reset is required after each powering up. If the lift
is not at the top or base floor during any power up then it travels immediately to the base
floor to reset itself. Normally open magnet switches (KPM206) are used in ALC. You can only
get two types of information in this method. One is current floor number and the other is
whether the lift is at the door zone. These are all. This method is recommended only for low
speed simple lift applications. To select this method adjust parameter A05 to 0.
1.11.2) INCREMENTAL ENCODER

An incremental encoder can be used to get car position information. To implement this Pulse
A and Pulse B outputs of the encoder should be connected to the ENC terminals on ALC
mainboard. When incremental encoder method is used then the position of the car can be
obtained by the controller in mm accuracy. This information helps the controller in managing
speed paths, especially in slowing down and stopping. Incremental encoder method also
needs to be reset after each powering up. Therefore the lift always travels to the base floor
after any power up in order to calibrate itself. To select this method, adjust parameter A05 to
2. You should also define a number of path lengths in section 6.6.
1.11.3) ABSOLUTE ENCODER

The best way to get car position information is to use an absolute encoder. An absolute
encoder will always give the exact car position information to the controller. It does not need
require to be reset at any time. An absolute encoder in ALC system is connected via CAN bus.
It gives information about car position in mm or even higher accuracy. This information helps
to the controller in managing speed paths, especially in slowing down and stopping.
Incremental encoder method also needs to be reset after each powering up. Therefore the lift
always travels to the base floor after any power up in order to calibrate itself. To select this
method adjust parameter A05 to 3. You should also define a number of path lengths in section
6.6.
1.12) DISTANCE BASED OPERATION

When an incremental encoder or an absolute encoder has been selected as the car position
collecting system then ALC offers a distance based operation system. In distance based
operation the distance to the target floor in mm is used in motion rather than floor. Distance
based operation has significant advantages in high speed lifts. There are no intermediate
speeds for high speed lifts. The lift can slow down directly from any speed to the target floor.
A very important point to know is that this process is totally managed by the ALC software and
any inverter can be used to drive the lift motor. The explanation of this system is in section
8.4.3.
1.13) GROUP OPERATION

ALC controller can work in lift groups up to eight lifts. The communication between controllers
is implemented via CAN-BUS. The system is very flexible. There is no dedicated master. When
a lift in the group is switched off or cannot function properly then a new lift starts working as
master, and the group operation goes on without any interruption.
The group connections and operation is explained in section 8.1.
10
1.14) FIRE FUNCTIONS
ALC supports two lift standards, EN81-72 and EN81-73. The standard which will be used in lift
operation should be defined in parameter B46. In case where EN81-73 has been selected then
there are two fire floors which are defined in parameters B05 and B40. Depending on the
activation of the fire inputs functions FR1 and FR2, one of the floors defined in parameter B05
and B40 will be selected as the target floor (fire floor) for the lift. If FR1 and FR2 are both
active then fire floor 1 will be selected as the target floor.
1.15) VIP TRAVEL

ALC has a VIP Travel function. When any of the VIP related input functions VP1 (62) , VP2 (63)
or VP3 (64) is activated then the lift immediately moves to the floor defined in related
parameters B33, B34 and B35, respectively. If the lift is in motion in the same direction with
the new target then it continues its travel until reaching the VIP floor. If the motion and the
new target directions are opposite then the lift stops at the first floor and reverses its
direction towards to the VIP floor and starts its travel again. VP1 has the highest priority, VP2
medium and VP3 the lowest. That means when there are more than one active VIP terminals
then the one with the highest priority is selected (VP1 >VP2 > VP3).
1.16) PRIORITY FUNCTION

ALC software has a priority function. This function is very useful in buildings where public lifts
are working. In case of emergency these lifts can be called and used as a private lift by
inhibiting normal usage. This system works only in full serial systems where landings are serial
and requires access control readers (RFID or i-Button) in all landings and cars.
Priority function is explained in section 8.2.
1.17) ACCESS CONTROL SYSTEM

Access control utility permits only the users with appropriate permission to use the lift, in other
words, it restricts any person who is not allowed to use the lift for a specific floor or time
interval. For this purpose, each lift user should have a RFID card or i-Button key with a unique
user ID. This utility is present in ALC software. You do not need any access control system to
implement it. You only need access control readers in landing and car panels.
Access control system is explained in section 8.3.
1.18) KEYPAD AND SCREEN TRANSFER
1.18.1) HAND TERMINAL

The screen and the keypad on ALC mainboard can be accessed with a hand terminal HTC. It
can be used anywhere in the shaft, at floors or in machine room by connecting its terminals to
CAN bus. When hand terminal is active then the keypad on the mainboard becomes inactive.
1.18.2) BLUETOOTH
The screen and the keypad on ALC mainboard can be accessed with a mobile device via
Bluetooth. To implement this function it is necessary to have BLN add-on board plugged onto
the ALC mainboard. Please be aware that Bluetooth has a certain range. Therefore it can be
used only in areas close to the controller board.
11
1.19) DATA TRANSFER
ALC series controller systems support computer connection with USB or Ethernet by Liftnet
software. By using Liftnet a computer can be connected directly, via a local network (LAN) or via
the Internet. LiftNet computer interface program supports everything that you can do with the
keypad on the mainboard. Using Liftnet in adjusting and monitoring the controller improves the
man-machine interface to a very high level when compared to a 2 line screen and 6 keys in the
keypad.
Liftnet has the following features:

 Lift motion and calls can be observed in real time
 All timings and the status of the inputs and the outputs can be observed in real time
 Error log can be obtained as digital data
 All parameters can be checked and modified.
 All input and output settings can be checked and modified.
 All Parameters can be saved, loaded, transferred and printed.
You can download Liftnet software and related drivers from the link
http://www.aybey.com/eng/programlar.htm. You can find detailed information to install and
use the software in “LiftNet Installation Manual”.
1.19.1) USB
In order to connect any PC to a lift controller with Liftnet via USB it is necessary to have a USN
add-on board plugged onto the ALC mainboard. In This way the controller can be monitored
by a PC in the machine room to adjust the parameters and timers or to detect an error.
1.19.2) Ethernet
In order to connect a PC to a local network (LAN) or to the internet it is necessary to plug the
ETN add-on board onto the ALC board. ETN board is the ethernet interface. This way the
controller can be monitored by a PC anywhere in the world where internet connection is
present to adjust the parameters and timers or to detect an error.
1.20 MAINTENANCE CONTROL

There are two independent control systems for maintenance mode activation. The first one is
by setting a maintenance time in the future and the second is by specifying a maximum
number of starts for the lift. If the adjusted maintenance time or number of starts is exceeded
then the lift switches to maintenance mode and does not accept calls anymore. Maintenance
control is explained in section 8.5.
1.21) TEST MENU

There is a special utility in ALC system for testing the lift in normal operation. The doors or
calls can be easily cancelled. A call to the top or bottom floor can be created and any number
of random lift travels can be executed automatically. Test menu is explained in section 2.4.
12
CHAPTER 2 - LCD SCREEN AND KEYPAD
ALC Series have an LCD screen with two lines and sixteen characters per line and a keypad with
six buttons.
Buttons are located as below:
LEFT UP RIGHT
ESC DOWN ENT

Figure 2.1 Keypad layout
There are arrows in four directions as UP, DOWN, LEFT and RIGHT on the glass of the ALC
mainboard. However we will denote them with as UP, DOWN, LEFT and RIGHT rather than
indicating with arrows with the same directions throughout this document.
The arrow buttons have various functions depending on the screen or menu they are used.
However ESC and ENT buttons usually have the same functions where pressing ESC button
exits from current menu or application and ENT button usually confirms anything asked or
selects the indicated line. UP and DOWN arrow buttons are used in list type screens to move
up and down on the screen, respectively. Please be aware that there are some screens where
a special button is asked to be pressed to continue or to do a specific task.
One important use of the key panel is entering certain numbers as input. This is done mainly
as in the following example where you are asked to enter number of stops in parameter A01.
FLR: 6
A01 ?000006
You can see the value of the parameter as 6 on the screen. When you are asked to enter a
number then cursor is always located under left most digit at the beginning. You can increase
or decrease value of the digit under which cursor is located by using UP and DOWN buttons
respectively. In order to change the digit in other positions you can move cursor to left and right
by using LEFT and RIGHT buttons.
On the screen above the value of the parameter is 6 and the cursor is located under the digit 6.
Now let us see how this number changes after the indicated button is pressed.
?000006
pressing DOWN
?000005
pressing DOWN
?000004
pressing LEFT
?000004
pressing UP
?000014
13
After setting the parameter, if you press ENT the new value on the screen is saved. However if
you press ESC, changes are cancelled. In both cases, you return to the previous screen and will
see value of the parameter.
Here we press ENT and see the following screen.
2.1) STARTUP SCREENS
In startup you see the following screens one by one:
a) The number in the first line on this screen shows the software version number (bold)
and the second line indicates that the parameters have been loaded from EPROM.
AYBEY ALC 1.08c

c) This screen shows the serial number of the controller board.
AYBEY ALC 1.08c

SNO: 14024
d) At the end of the startup period you will see system ready message
AYBEY ALC 1.08c

System Ready
e) Then the main screen is displayed. Now the system is ready to start to serve as a lift
controller.
2.2) MAIN SCREEN
G 01=t--STOP 1
.......
After startup period is completed main screen is displayed on LCD screen. Main screen
displays the most important state variables of the lift with some letters and symbols.
Understanding this screen will help you in operation significantly. Moreover, access to all
14
menus and applications starts through the main menu which is activated when ENT button is
pressed on the main screen.
The meaning of the characters on the main screen is explained in the following screens. Please
note that the background of the explained positions is in grey and characters are in red.
a) The first character gives information about the safety line. The characters and their

2.3) BUTTON FUNCTIONS IN MAIN SCREEN
The functions of the buttons when pressed while main screen is being displayed are as
follows:
2.3.1) Pressing ENT Button -> MAIN MENU

When ENT button is pressed then the menu system is activated. Main menu appears as
below:
>M2-PARAMETERS
M3-ERROR LOG
This is the starting point of the menu tree. From this menu you can reach submenus for
all parameters, variables and application menus in the system. You can use UP and
DOWN buttons to scroll up and down the lines, respectively and ENT button to select
the function denoted by ‘>’ arrow.
2.3.2) Pressing ESC Button -> INFO SCREEN
When ESC button is pressed while main screen is being displayed then info screen
comes as in starting period.

This is a menu showing some of the system variables such as number of starts,
temperature, pulse per mm, etc. You can go through the lines by pressing UP and
DOWN buttons.
When you are finished with the menu then you can exit by pressing ESC button.
2.3.3) Pressing RIGHT Button -> GIVING CAR CALLS
When RIGHT button is pressed then you will be asked for a floor number. When you
enter a number and press ENT then a car call for this floor is registered.
Cabin Button
Floor No ?000002
This is the facility of giving car call from keypad.
2.3.4) Pressing UP Button -> USER DEFINED MENU
When UP button is pressed while main screen is being displayed then the system
switches to the user-defined menu.
I1: - (2) 870

MR INSPECTION
User defined menu is explained in section 2.5.

2.3.5) Pressing LEFT Button -> MONITORING OF THE STATES OF THE INPUTS
When LEFT button is pressed while main screen is being displayed then the system
switches to the monitoring inputs menu.
113*114*120*125*
130*135 140 141
19
As you can see there are certain numbers and ‘*’ signs on this screen. When an input is in
active then it will have a ‘*’ on the right side and the inactive ones will be blank. In order to
see the states of more inputs, press DOWN button. The next screen is as below.
MKD MKU ML1 ML2

M0 FKK*PTC CNT
When (ENT) button is pressed while an input screen is displayed then the terminals where the
displayed inputs have been defined are shown.
I7 I6 fix fix
--- fix fix fix
So, you can easily see in which terminal the input function has been assigned. On the screen
above it can be seen that MKD function has been defined in input terminal I7, MKU is defined
in input terminal I6 and M0 is not defined anywhere. The inputs ML1, ML2, PTC, FKK and CNT
are predefined by the system in hardware and are not to be changed by user. Therefore they
are shown as “fix”.
2.4) TEST MENU

There is a special utility in ALC system for testing the lift during normal operation. The doors or
calls can be easily canceled. A call to the top or bottom floor can be created and any number
of random lift travels can be executed automatically. Test menu can be accessed from the
main menu in M6 selection.
DOOR + ↑ CALLS x
ESC ↓ MOVE
LEFT UP RIGHT
ESC DOWN ENT

Figure 2.1 Keypad layout
This test menu can only be accessed in normal operation and not in inspection mode. There
are six items on the screen in two lines similar to the keypad. Three functions are managed by
the buttons corresponding to their orientations. The left button controls the doors, up button
up calls, etc. If there is a ‘+’ sign in after doors and calls it means that they are working
normally. But when there is a ‘x’ sign after the label it means that they have been inhibited.
The functions of the keys are as follows:
LEFT: Pressing LEFT button enables (‘+’) or disables (‘x’) the doors. When the doors are
disabled then the lift works normally but it will not open comply with any door open
command at arrival or in return to the destination floor.
RIGHT: Pressing RIGHT button enables (‘+’) or disables (‘x’) the calls. When the calls are
disabled then the lift works normally but it will not accept calls from car or landing buttons.
20
However calls can be registered from controller by using the test menu or by issuing car calls
on the screen.
UP: Pressing UP button registers a car call to the top floor.
DOWN: Pressing DOWN button registers a car call to the bottom floor.
ESC: By pressing ESC button you can exit from the test menu.
ENT: When you press ENT button you will be asked to enter a number.
NUMBER OF STARTS
?000000
When you enter a number the system will create random calls and the lift will travel as many
times as the entered number between floors. During this random operation whether or not
the doors can be opened at floor arrivals depends on their inhibition status. You can see the
number of remaining calls when you enter this screen again.
2.5) USER DEFINABLE MENU
The users can create their own menu from custom menu and this menu can be accessed from
the main screen by pressing UP button.
2.6 MENU TREE
When you press ENT button while in main screen you will enter the main menu. In this menu
the items are labelled with prefix ‘M’, such as M1, M2. Some items directly go to a service
menu whereas some open a new menu with certain new selections. In the following page in
Figure 2.2 you can see the menu tree of ALC control system.

CHAPTER 3 - INPUTS
3.1) HARDWARE
All inputs except ML1-ML2 and safety circuit are active low. It means that an active state from
a detector is monitored when this input is connected to the ground reference (0V) of dc power
supply. See Figure 3.1. All inputs are 100% galvanically isolated from the microcontroller
circuit since they are connected via optocouplers to this circuit.
Figure 3.1
Due to its flexible structure, the input terminals of ALC Series control system are distributed to
a number of boards. The places of these terminals are listed below.

3.3) MONITORING OF THE STATES OF THE INPUTS
The states of the digital inputs (programmable and fixed) can be observed when LEFT button is
pressed while the main screen is being displayed. This procedure is explained in section 3.4.
113*114*120*125*
130*135 140 141
3.4) DEFINITION OF INPUTS
To monitor and modify the settings of an input terminal you should go to INPUT MENU. This
menu can be reached through the following path:
main menu [press ENT] -> M2-PARAMETERS -> P7- INPUT DEF.
When you are at this menu then you will see the input terminals and their defined input
functions.
I1: - (2) 870

MR INSPECTION
28
This screen shows that the input I1 has been assigned to the “MR INSPECTION” input function
whose function code is 2. The label for this function is 870. Namely input terminal I1 has been
programmed with the code 2.
The sign (+ /-) right after the terminal number shows the active state of this input. If there is
no signal (open circuit) at this terminal a “-“ sign is displayed. Similarly a “+” sign here will be
displayed when there is a signal (closed circuit) at the terminal I1 as shown below.
I1: + (2) 870 *

MR INSPECTION
When the terminal I1 which is programmed for the input function 870 becomes active due to
an electric signal applied to it, then a star sign “*” will be displayed right after the function code
870. However a signal at the terminal which makes its sign “+” does not always mean that this
function is active. Similarly also a star sign “*” displayed at the end of the first line does not
always mean that this function is active. Some input functions are inactive when there is a signal
at the terminal and become active when the signal is removed. You can see such a function
below.
N2: + (1) 869 N2: - (1) 869*

CAR INSPECTION CAR INSPECTION
On the screens above you can see the definition of the input function CAR INSPECTION. When
there is no connection or communication between car controller and the main controller then
the lift must be in inspection mode. When there is an active signal coming from the car to the
controller then CAR INSPECTION function is not active. In summary the (+/-) sign shows the state
of the electric signal and an “*” is displayed at the end of the line when this input function
becomes active.
You can continue displaying other inputs by pressing DOWN and UP arrow buttons.
N3: - (7) 501 N4: - (6) 500

INSP.UP INSP.DOWN
Please note that the inputs inside the controller start with the letter “I”, the ones in car start
with the letter “N” and the ones at pit start with the letter “Y”.
3.5) SETTING OF INPUT TERMINALS

In order to change the function assigned to any input you see on the screen press ENT button.
CAR INSPECTION
N2 ?000001 (869)
29
Now you have switched to a service menu where you can set this input data. In order to select
the input function you want to assign to this input terminal (N2) change the number after the
question sign. You can use UP, DOWN, RIGHT and LEFT buttons to find the input function you
want to assign. Each time you change the data the input function which corresponds to it will
be displayed.
MR INSPECTION
N2 ?000002 (870)
If you assign an input function which had previously been assigned to another input terminal,
you will get a warning.
I9: (2)
DEFINED PREV.
The message on this screen means that the function code 870 has been defined previously at
the terminal I9. Therefore you cannot assign it once more to any other terminal.
All of the input functions are listed and explained in section 3.2.
3.6) SETTING ALL INPUTS BY A COMMAND
All programmable input terminals can be defined one by one. However, another facility is to
program all input terminals in one step. This is usually needed during programming of the
inputs for the first time or when the type of the lift needs to be changed. In order to do this
first follow the following path:
main menu [press ENT] -> M2-PARAMETERS --> P9-UTILITIES -> R3-SET INPUTS
>G1-VVVF ASYNCR.
G2-VVVF SYNCR.
The selections in this section are as follows:
G1-VVVF ASYNCHRONOUS : Input definitions appropriate for a system where asynchronous

motor will be used are automatically assigned and saved.
G2- VVVF SYNCHRONOUS : Input definitions appropriate for a system where synchronous
motor will be used are automatically assigned and saved.
G3-HYDRAULIC : Input definitions appropriate for a hydraulic lift will be assigned and saved.
G4-TWO SPEED : Input definitions appropriate for a two speed lift system will be assigned and
saved.
G5-FREE ALL : All programmable input terminals are cleared and set as free inputs.

CHAPTER 5 PARAMETERS
All information about lift and control system settings and timings are stored in system
parameters. These parameters are classified into several groups to make it easy for users.
These groups are:
P1-MAIN PARAMETERS: These parameters are denoted with a prefix letter ‘A’ as Axx. Main
parameters define the type and basic functions of the lift. They can be modified only when
the lift is resting.
P2-AUXILIARY PARAMETERS: These parameters are denoted with a prefix letter ‘B’ as Bxx.
Auxiliary parameters define most of the functions of the lift. They can be modified at any
time.
P3-TIMER PARAMETERS: These parameters are denoted with a prefix letter ‘C’ as Cxx.
Timer parameters store all of the user definable timer settings. They can be modified at any
time.
P4-FLOOR PARAMETERS: Floor parameters hold the settings related to every floor, such as
displays, door opening sides, etc.
P5-MAINTENANCE: The date for the next maintenance time is stored.
P6-OUTPUT DEFINITIONS: These parameters store the settings for the programmable
outputs.
P7-INPUT DEFINITIONS: These parameters store the settings for the programmable inputs.
P8-DATE / TIME: Settings for time and date are stored in these parameters.
P9-UTILITIES: Utilities for setting parameters easily.
P0-MAX-START: This parameter stores maximum number of starts of lift until next
maintenance time.

[A11] HIGH SPEED

No
0
There are only two speeds operating. These are FAST and SLOW.
Use 3rd Speed HIGH
This option is used in variable speed lifts (A03 > 3), where the car speed exceeds 1m/s.
In this case, the lift has slow, fast and high (3th speed) speeds. When this option is
selected HU switch must be placed one floor below the top floor and HD switch must
1 be placed one floor above the base floor. The purpose of these switches is to slow
down the car from high speed (3th. speed) to intermediate speed (fast speed) in order
to prevent the car from entering last floors of the shaft with a speed above 1 m/s or
higher. If it is selected without connecting HU and HD then an error message (21) will
be reported.

OPERATIONS
01.FLOOR KAPI A
?000000 OFF
ALC lift controller can work is a group of 8 lifts. In order to connect a lift to a group you should
carry on the following steps:
63
a) Select the CAN port you are going to use for group connection in parameter A20. The
CAN port you have assigned to group communication must be used only for group and
cannot be selected for other purposes in parameters A18, A19 and A21.
b) Connect the CAN network cables to all lifts in the group.
c) Adjust parameter A07 for group number. This parameter must be in the range of 1 to
8. A value 0 in A07 corresponds to a simplex lift and group communication will be
inhibited.
d) There can be two to eight lifts in a lift group. The lift with the lowest group number will
be master. Each lift must be a unique group number. If there is more than one lift with
the same number in the group then you will get an error with the number 39. The
master processes the hall calls and distributes them to the other lifts (slaves).
e) If some lifts in the group have more or fewer floors than the others then you must set
the parameters A14 and A15 for these unmatched floors in the group. Please assign a
lift which has all landing floors as master. The lift which has been employed as master
is not allowed to have missing floors.
f) When the master is switched off or cannot travel for any purpose then the lift with the
lowest group number among the remaining lifts will be assigned as the new master
and group operation will be carried out without interruption.
g) When a lift is not in normal mode or is blocked then it will be excluded from the group.
If it is a master lift then a new member will become master. In case of duplex operation
two lifts continue to work as simplex in such cases.

8.2 PRIORITY FUNCTION
ALC software has a priority function. This function is very useful in buildings where public lifts
are used. In case of emergency, these lifts can be called and used as a private lift by inhibiting
normal usage. This system works only in full serial systems where landings are serial and
requires access control readers (RFID or i-Button) in all landings and car.
In order to start priority operation first thing is to set ID Control parameter B31 to 1 or 2. So
you can register the ID cards or i-Buttons into the system. The procedure of registering any ID
card or i-Button into the system is explained in section 8.3. ACCESS CONTROL SYSTEM. You
have to follow same way as is explained in section 8.3. to add a new ID key to the system. The
only difference in registering the keys for priority operation is that you should select 4 in EDIT
ALLOWANCE. In this way the ID keys are registered for priority control. Once you have
completed registering the ID keys, modify the value of parameter B31 to 0. This makes the ID
Control system inactive. Then set the parameter controlling priority operation B41 to 1 to
enable priority travel operation.
When B41 is 1 then the lift operates normally while there is no priority request. A priority
request can come from car or from any landing when their access control readers are
activated with a registered ID key. When an ID key is read from any of the landing access
control readers while the lift is moving then it changes its target to the floor where the priority
call is given. If the current motion direction and the direction towards to the floor of the
priority call are opposite, then the lift stops at the first floor in its travel direction. It
immediately changes its direction and moves directly to the floor where the priority call is
activated.
When the lift arrives at the floor of priority call, it stops and waits with open doors. The person
with the priority key enters the car and then he or she shows his or her key to the access
control reader in the cabin. Now the lift is ready for a priority travel. The person can bring the
lift to any floor by means of pressing a button on the car panel.
The lift does not accept any landing calls throughout the priority service time. Only car buttons
can be used to move the lift during this period.
The priority operation will be terminated when the access control reader inside the car is
activated by the priority key for the second time. There is also a timeout to exit from priority
system. If there are no calls in car panel for a time period defined in parameter C43 while the
lift is stationary then priority service routine is terminated.
8.3) ACCESS CONTROL SYSTEM

Access control utility permits only the users with appropriate permission to use the lift, in other
words, it restricts any person who is not allowed to use the lift for a specific floor or time
interval. For this purpose, each lift user should have a RFID card or i-Button key with a unique
user ID.
In this section, how to register a new ID to the system as well as how to change its permission
details will be explained. Access control system is active only when the parameter [B31] has a
value greater than '0'. As you enter this section, you will see the following menu.

8.3.2) FORMATS
When you want to add a new card or key to the system, you must assign it to a format. A format
holds the information besides ID-code, namely allowed floors and status. There are 15 formats
in the system. Therefore we recommend you to evaluate your formats before starting to add
keys or cards. The idea behind formats is to group users with similar permission criteria. When
you first save the permission details in a format, then you can add a number keys or card with
this format and lots of details will be saved automatically. You do not need to edit the
specifications for each new user separately. To edit formats, proceed to the “Y5-FORMATS” line
in R9 menu and press ENT button. You will see the following screen:
>01:00000000/1
02:00000000/1
There
A are 15 formats in the system. You can see all formats with the number 0 to 14 by moving

You can edit a format similarly to the editing of an ID explained in the previous section. The only
01.FLOOR KAPI A
difference is that the edited information belongs to a format and not to an ID-code. Therefore
?000000 OFF
you will select a format number rather than an ID-code to start.

8.4 MAINTENANCE CONTROL

There are two independent control systems for maintenance mode activation. The first one is
by setting a maintenance time in the future and the second is specifying a maximum number
of starts for the lift. If the adjusted maintenance time or number of starts is exceeded then the
lift switches to maintenance mode and does not accept any calls. In order to use the lift in
normal operation the surpassed parameter must be modified or cleared.

Please be careful at this stage. When you press UP button then all of the parameters in your
controller board will be cleared and factory defaults for the lift type you have selected will
be saved instead. You cannot recover it after.
9.2) BACKUP OF PARAMETERS
9.2.1) CREATING A BACKUP

After you have completed everything related to installation and adjusting the lift parameters it
is very useful to save a copy of the full set of the parameters in a different memory location in
the controller. This backup set of parameters are not open to any modification. They can only
be saved as a whole for backup or restored all together from backup.
To save a backup of the current parameter set go to menu M4-SERVICES in main menu. When
you have entered this section, you will be asked to enter an operation code.

digital display of the entrance floor (base floor) as 0. All floors above this floor are numbered
starting 1 and incremented by 1 at every floor; all floors below 0 (base floor) are numbered
starting -1 and decremented by 1 at every floor. If you have a regular display order in your
system with a few exceptions then first use the utility explained above and then change the data
for exceptional floors one by one.
9.4) R5-RESET PULSES

You can set all encoder pulses to factory default values by using this routine. You will see a

CHAPTER 10 - ENCODER OPERATIONS
ALC controller can use incremental and absolute encoders in determining car position.
10.1) INCREMENTAL ENCODER

When an incremental encoder is used as car floor selector, first set the parameter for FLOOR
SELECTOR A05=2. The controller counts the encoder pulses to calculate the car position. This
method is a relative method and the lift must enter resetting after any power on, in order to
reset its position. There are mainly three different systems for encoder implementation in ALC
controller.
These are:
a) Standalone shaft encoder system: The encoder has been implemented in the lift shaft
with its mechanical system without any use of the other lift components. It has its own
rope or wire attached to the car to follow the car position. The encoder input terminals
of ALC are connected directly to the encoder. In this system relevelling motion can be
managed by using encoder pulses. Therefore set the parameter for LEVEL DETECTOR
A17=1.
b) Shaft encoder on the speed governor: The encoder is mounted on the speed governor.
The encoder input terminals of ALC are connected directly to the encoder. In this
system relevelling motion can be managed by using encoder pulses. Therefore set the
parameter for LEVEL DETECTOR A17=1.
c) Encoder simulation outputs of the inverter: The encoder input terminals of ALC are
connected to the simulation output of the inverter. The inverter outputs the encoder
signal received from the motor encoder to the controller. However in this situation, the
controller cannot detect any car position change when there is no motion while the car
rests at the floor. The reason is that when the motion of the lift stops after arriving at a
floor, the mechanical brakes are closed and so the shaft of the motor cannot rotate.
When there is car position change after the mechanical brakes are closed then there
will be no encoder pulses coming to the controller since the brakes prevent any
rotation of the motor shaft. Therefore the controller will not be aware of the position
change of the car in resting and will not initiate any relevelling motion. For this reason
magnetic switches are employed for relevelling. Set the parameter for LEVEL
DETECTOR A17=0. This means in normal travel encoder pulses are used to detect car
position but MKU and MKD magnet switches are used when the car is resting at floor.
Set the parameter for LEVEL DETECTOR A17=0.
10.1.1) ENCODER SETUP

After completing installation of the encoder and shaft switches, go to encoder setup service
routine through the following path:
main menu [press ENT] -> M2-PARAMETERS --> P9-UTILITIES -> RA-ENCODER SETUP
In this section you can execute the service routine for encoder auto learning process.
The controller learns the position of the floors and shaft limits through executing this process.
At the end of the learning process the floor positions and the encoder ratio (pulse / mm ratio)
will be saved and used in further travels.
Before starting the learning travel complete the following task list:
73
1) Set the parameter for FLOOR SELECTOR A05=2.
2) Set the parameter for LEVEL DETECTOR:
A17=0 when motor encoder is used
A17=1 when motor encoder is not used.
3) Place strip magnets at all floors to specify door zones. Make sure to place them at the
centre of each floor. The length of the strip magnet determines the length of the door
opening zone.
4) Install magnetic shaft switches ML1 and ML2, and connect to the circuit as shown in
ALC electrical wiring diagrams. In this system only monostable (NO) magnet switches
are used. ML1 and ML2 are placed together in one holder and they use the same strip
magnet.
5) If motor encoder is used then install magnetic shaft switches MKD and MKU and
connect to the circuit as shown in ALC electrical wiring diagrams. In this system only
monostable (NO) magnet switches are used.
6) Place 817 (bottom forced slow down) and 818 (top forced slow down) switches. These
switches will be used as shaft limit references in travel.
To start the operation press UP button when you see the following screen.

meanwhile measures the length of the strip magnet used for ML1 and ML2. Then it returns to
the base floor and stops. Afterwards it beings a second travel upwards and goes up to the top
floor. It stops at the floor level of the top floor. Then it moves downwards and stops at the base
floor level. Along this travel the controller reads and saves the positions of the ML strip
magnets at all floors. It calculates the length of encoder pulses and saves this data to convert
everything in encoder operation to the metric system. This conversion factor will be displayed
on the screen during calculations. You will be informed of the end of the learning travel on the
screen. If the process has been completed without any errors then you can start using the lift in
normal operation.
10.2) ABSOLUTE ENCODER

When an absolute encoder is used as car position detector then set the parameter FLOOR
SELECTOR A05=3. In ALC controller absolute encoder is connected via CAN_BUS. Although
there is no necessity to have any switch in the shaft to give any position information, ML1 and
ML2 switches must be used with the strip magnet to approve the door zones. There is no
resetting travel when an absolute encoder is used. The encoder always sends the controller
the exact car position regardless of any power failure.
75
10.3 DISTANCE BASED OPERATION
When the parameter A10 is 1 then the controller switches to distance based operation
system. In distance based operation the distance to the target floor in mm is used in motion
rather than floor number as is the case where A10=0. Distance based operation has significant
advantages in high speed lifts. There are no intermediate speeds for high speed lifts. The lift
can slow down directly from any speed to the target floor. A very important point to know is
that this process is entirely managed by the ALC software and any inverter can be used to
drive the lift motor.
The system allows four speeds for the lift. They are named SLOW, FAST, HIGH and ULTRA. The
deceleration path lengths for all speeds and also minimum path lengths for high speeds (3.
and 4. speeds) must be defined in
K7-GENERAL PULSES section.
There are different decision mechanisms in starting and slowing down in distance based
operations.
Before starting further discussion the following definitions are made based on the values
defined in K7-GENERAL PULSES section:
TD: the distance from the car position to the target floor level.
MIN3: minimum path length to select HIGH (3. speed) to start with.
MIN4: minimum path length to select ULTRA (4. speed) to start with.
SDP2: slow down path length from FAST (2. Speed)
SDP3: slow down path length from HIGH (3. Speed)
SDP4: slow down path length from ULTRA (4. Speed)
a) The speed selection at starting is carried out by using the following comparisons:
If TD < MIN3  the starting speed of the lift is FAST (2. speed)
If TD > MIN3  if TD < MIN4  the starting speed of the lift is HIGH (3. speed)
if TD > MIN4  the starting speed of the lift is ULTRA (4. speed)
b) When the lift is travelling at a constant speed towards its target then the point of
slowing down is selected by the controller by using the following comparisons:

CHAPTER 11 - ERROR LOG AND ERROR CODES
In ALC Series Control Systems, all determined errors are reported at runtime on main screen
and stored in permanent memory. Error storing capacity of system is limited to 250. If an error
occurs when there are 250 errors stored in memory, then oldest error is cleared and the new
one is stored. You can see last 250 stored errors anytime by using LCD screen or from your
computer connection. Here we will see how to monitor error list reports by using keypad and
LCD.
On main menu, enter M3-ERROR LOG sub-menu.
>M3-ERROR LOG

CHAPTER 12 - UCM SERVICES
You can access all UCM services through the following path:
main menu [press ENT] -> M7-UCM MENU
12.1) M7-UCM MENU

UCM SERVICE menu is in main menu with the label M7.
Many services related to UCM tests and operations can be performed using the routines in this
menu.
12.1.1) U1-CLEAR ERROR

When a UCM error occurs it will not be cleared even after a power down. A UCM error must
be cleared manually. This menu is used to clear a UCM Error (Error 64 and Error 72). Before
clearing the error, the reason of the error should be found and the error must be fixed.
Error clearing must be performed only by authorised personnel.
12.1.2) U2-UCM TEST

The lift can be tested manually for UCM by using this service routine. This test can be executed
when the parameter A17 is greater 1 and the lift is not in use or in rescue operation.
12.1.3) U3-TEST TIME

When the parameter B37=2 then the system will carry on the UCM test every day at the same
time automatically. The time point for this test can be set in this section.
12.1.4) U4-TEST START

When the parameter B37=1 then the system will carry on the UCM test automatically when
the lift completes the number of starts set in this section. Number of starts to execute the
UCM test can be set between 2 and 1500.
12.1.5) U5 -TEST COUNTER

This utility is present only to give information about the actual number of starts after the last
UCM test has been executed. It is not for any adjustment. The information given here is useful
only when B3=1.
12.1.6) U6 -VALVE TEST

Valve test for UCM can be executed manually by using this service routine in hydraulic systems.
CHAPTER 13: VARIABLES AND LANGUAGE
