Elevator Management
Overview

Elevator Form
Elevators
The first step in configuring elevator control is setting up floors. The Floor Form of the Administration
menu allows you to set up floors.
Now, you can configure the elevator records. You will use the Elevator Form to configure elevator
records. Here, you select the method of elevator control, the readers, and the floors that will be used. You
can set a reader for elevator control using this form only. When you return to the Reader Form and
display a corresponding reader record, you will notice that all other options in the Logical Type section
are not available.
Elevator control does not span micros. This means the reader, digital outputs, and digital inputs (if
applicable) must be on the same micro.
The type of boards you want to use in your dedicated micro (DO only or a combination of DO and DI
boards) determines the number of floors available. After installing the CPU board, the
Power/Communication board, and at least one reader board, there are four slots available that can be
used for digital input boards or a combination of digital input boards and digital output boards.
Methods of Elevator Control
There are three methods of implementing elevator control:
No Floor Tracking Method
With this method, you define the floors available and define a digital output for each floor. Only digital
outputs provided by the 16 DO board can be used. In addition, each DO can by used in only one
elevator and mapped to only one floor. The number of floors is limited by the number of 16 DO boards
that can be placed in the micro; the maximum is four. Therefore, the maximum number of floors
available is 64 (4 boards x 16 DOs = 64 DOs).
Floor Tracking by Input
Define the floors available, then define a digital input and digital output for each floor. The digital
inputs are used for floor selection. Only digital inputs provided by the 20 DI board can be used for floor
selection and each digital input can by used for only one elevator and mapped to only one floor. The
digital outputs are used to control where the elevator moves. Only digital outputs provided by the 16
DO board can be used, and each digital output can only be used in one elevator and mapped to one
floor. Using this method, a maximum of 32 floors can be supported (2 boards x 16 DOs = 32 DOs).
Floor Tracking by Keypad
Define the floors available and define a digital output for each floor. The reader’s keypad is used to
select the desired floor. Only digital outputs provided by the 16 DO board can be used. In addition,
each DO can be used in only one floor. The number of floors is limited by the number of 16 DO boards
that can be placed in the micro; the maximum if four. Therefore, the maximum number of floors
available is 64 (4 boards x 16 DOs = 64 DOs).
Floor Tab of Access Right Form
On the Personnel menu, select Access Right to open the Access Right Form, Floor tab to assign access
rights to elevators and floors. Select from the Available list those elevators you want to use with the form.
The elevators that display in this list are those that are set up on the Elevator Form. Floors and DOs can
be assigned an access right to define which floors a person can access and what DOs a person can
trigger with a valid badge.
