If you change any value for an elevator/lift, this will
cause that device to be reset to its default / scheduled
state (this allows configuration updates to be managed
properly). To check or re-set status aspects, refer to
the "Elevator" status/control topic.

Introducing Access-Controlled
Elevators

With access-controlled elevators, floor call-
buttons are disabled until an authorized person
presents their access card. When the card is
presented, the specific floors for that person
will become available.
Each system can include up to 32 elevators,
and a total of up to 124 access-controlled
floors.

Exception: The elevator capacity is shared with doors
(max. 32 combined). Doors also share the elevator
numbering (and panel memory space), and will be listed
along with the doors (editable under "Door" only).
Tip: You can define elevators at the end of the list, or
click [Filter] on the toolbar to show only the numbers
associated with elevators.
Panel/Firmware Revision: Support for elevators and
controlled floor-access requires V3.0 panel firmware.
Recommended:

V3.2 panel firmware, and

V1.5

elevator controller firmware.
Feature-Set and Licensing: Support for elevators
requires a 'feature-set' selection of 5 or higher (via
Enterprise software licensing).
For details, refer to "Account-Wide Panel Settings", and
"Software Activation and Licensing".
Floor Wiring and Set-Up: Floor relays must be wired in
the same relative order for all elevators, and then
defined in the same order (such as lowest to highest).
To define system floors, refer to the floor configuration
topic (to follow).

The access-requirements for each elevator
reader can be configured to meet your specific
requirements. As well, many items can be set
to a rotating schedule, allowing different
parameters to be in effect after-hours.

For details on setting up the card/token format, refer to
"System Card-Access Settings".
Wiegand-output reader keypads are supported for
Card+PIN (and PIN-Only) entry modes and signalling
duress. Matrix-style keypads (i.e., that require
additional connections) are not supported for elevators.
