4.3 Elevator Reference
The Elevator Reference table is part of the elevator control feature that is typically used in high rise apartments
or office buildings and is designed to limit which elevator(s) and to which floor a visitor is allowed access to after
being admitted by a resident. To use the elevator control for visitor access, the resident must have their floor
number entered in the FLOOR (FL) field on the Resident Info screen. This tells the system which floor the visitor
will be allowed access to.
The Elevator Reference table sets which elevator(s) the visitor is allowed to use and sets a time limit as to how
long the floor button will be active after access has been granted. Up to eight (8) Elevator References (ER) can
be programmed for greater flexibility. Typically, you will need only a single ER.
NOTE: Elevator control is only available with 30 Series and ENHANCED SERIES 40 boards and requires the
installation of the 2348 Elevator Control board(s). This software and hardware will control a maximum of eight (8)
elevators with each elevator serving up to 64 floors.
4.3.1
Program the Elevator Reference (ER) Table
Refer to Figure 53 for the following steps.
1. Click the ELEVATOR REFERENCE
button in the tool bar. The Elevator
Reference Table window will appear.
The elevator numbers are listed
across the first row while the elevator
reference number is listed in the first
column.
2. Start with ER1. Select which
elevator(s) ER1 will be applied to. In
figure 52, ER1 is applied to elevators
1 and 2, which means that visitors of
residents with 1 programmed in the
ER field are limited to using elevators
1 and 2 only.
3. Set the time that the elevator floor
button will be active. When a resident
grants a visitor access, the system will
"turn on" the floor button that the
resident lives on in the elevators
designated in step 2. The floor button
will be active for the amount of time
that you set here. If the elevator is not
at the ground (first floor) level, the
system will "call" the elevator to this
level, and then start the timer after it
reaches this level. In figure 49, the
time for ER1 is set to 2 minutes.
Figure 49
EXAMPLE: In our hypothetical building, Mr. Bernard lives on the 11th floor of the building. His elevator reference
was set to 1 on the Resident Information screen (See 4.3.2). When Mr. Bernard grants a visitor access, that
visitor can only use elevators 1 or 2, and they must activate the button for floor 11 (the only button that will work)
within two minutes after the elevator reaches the ground floor. If the elevator was already at the ground floor, the
visitor will have two minutes to activate the button from the time they entered the building.
