 10. LIFT CONTROLLER – ASSEMBLY MODE :

Before the beginning of the installation, the controller shall be put into assembly mode.
The assembly mode allows the movement of the car in inspection, while the safety of the
lifts are not fully connected.

To activate the assembly mode follow the procedure detailed at page 43 of the wiring
schematic.

At the end of the installation, disable the assembly mode (refer to the “Commissioning”
section)

During the installation, some temporary connections have to be done if the safety
chain and safety apparatus, doors, etc are not yet installed.

It’s extremely important, before commissioning the lift, to remove all temporary
connections, with particular attention to those that override a safety contact.

It’s extremely dangerous and not allowed by the rules, to use the lift with any safety
circuit overridden.
 12. MECHANICAL INSTALLATION

The car frame is already equipped with a bi-

directional safety gear model EB 75 KD.

Together with the speed governor, the safety gear

performs as well the function of protection against
uncontroller car movement (UCMP)

Refer to the safety gear manual for a detailed

instruction about the installation and adjustment of
the safety gear.
 13. ROPE ENDINGS
The rope fixings are installed on the car frame and counterweight frame. The following material is
provided :

 10 long rope tie (500 mm)

 10 short rope tie (400 mm)
 10 big spring
 10 small spring
 20 metal cylinders
 60 “U” clips

The reason we are providing two measures for the rope tie is to prevent them from obstructing each
other.

Use 5 long ties + 5 short ties on the each ending.

The smaller springs are designed to be more

compressed and must be installed on the car side rope
attachment.

The bigger springs should instead be installed on the

cwt side rope attachment.

The metal cylinders must be installed inside each

spring, on both car and cwt side. These cylinders limit
the compression of the springs.

Secure the ropes using al least 3 metal clip for each

rope.

If the ropes are tensioned uniformly, they should show

approximately the same level of compression.

Tighten the bolts at the top of each tie, trying to keep

all the tie rods at the same level (3-4 mm of tolerance
is acceptable)
 21. ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION

LIFT CONTROLLER - EXTERNAL CONNECTIONS :

A series of terminals has been provided inside the main controller for the connection of the
various equipment :

o X1 and X2 : main terminal sets at the bottom of the controller

o A1, A2 and A3 : terminal sets for the connection of the trailing cables between
controller and car top terminal box
o A4 : terminal set for the connection of the landing stations

Refer to the next page for the list of the various connections to be done on X1 and X2.

The subset of terminals on X2 from BMS1 to BMS16 is a series of NO outputs which can
be used to drive the landing displays.

Each output provides a different information : if required, the type of information can be
customized accessing the menu 20 in the Lex-Q board.

The parameter BZ.01 corresponds to the output of BMS1/BMS2 and so on until BZ.07

The output of BMS15/BMS16 is always connected to the pressure of the alarm button in
the COP, and it cannot be customized.

 22. INSTALLATION OF THE SHAFT CONTACTS AND CAMS

A series of contacts is provided for installation at the top of the car frame :

OVTR
FCM

FLL
CD
CS

BCD
BCS

All of these contacts are to be connected to the car top terminal box.

Refer to page 50 of the wiring schematic for the details of the positioning of
these contacts and the relevant cams, where the values X=1000 mm and
Y=30 mm.

A description of the application is also contained in the next pages.

OVTR limit switch : a roller limit used to detect the overtravel in the up and down
directions.

Position the relevant shaft cams, so that when the car is at top or
bottom floors, there is still an available run of 50-100 mm before
the triggering of the contact.

FCM limit switch : a roller limit switch to be installed on the bracket on the side of the car
frame. Its matching cam is to be fixed to the guiderails, in such a way that the limit is
activated when there are still at least 2000 mm between the top of the car and the
headroom.

Also ensure that when the limit is activated, there is still

enough space to leave the car top from the landing entrance.

Use the provided support brackets (to be fixed to the

guiderails) to install the cam.
BCS / BCD bistable switches : the two magnetic switches must be installed on the
bracket on the side of the car frame.

The bistable switches must be installed with the

GREEN label pointing at TOP, and the RED label
pointing at BOTTOM.

The bi-stables are coupled with round magnets installed on the guiderail. The magnets
have a black side and a white side:

 bistable BCS is used for the slowdown in up direction : with the car floor positioned
950 mm before the TOP floor level, put the WHITE side of the magnetic disc in front
of the bistable BCS
 bistable BCD is used for the slowdown in down direction : with the car floor
positioned 950 mm over the BOTTOM floor, put the BLACK side of the magnetic
disc in front of the bistable BCD
 when the car is at middle travel (not top floor, not bottom floor), both BCS and BCD
must be open. This can be checked throught the status of the LEDs FCS and FCD
on the car top board (Lex-C) : the two LEDs must be off while the lift is at middle of
travel.

If one of the lights is still on, the polarity of the bistable switch shall be changed :
this can be done passing the magnet over the bistable (from up to down or vice-
versa, until the LED indication goes off)
 when the car is at top floor, the LED light of FCS only must be on
 when the car is at bottom floor, the LED light of FCD only must be on
CS / CD magnetic switches : install the switches on the side of the car frame. Install the
matching magnetic stripes on the guiderail (with the white side facing the reeds)

Keep no more than 10 mm between the reeds and

the stripes.

Reed CS is used for the positioning of the car at top

floor : put the matching magnetic stripes on the
guiderail according to the diagram in the wiring
schematics.

Reed CD is used for the positioning of the car at

bottom floor : put the matching magnetic stripes on
the guiderail according to the diagram in the wiring
schematics.

FLL magnetic switch : this reed performs the reading of the door zone at landings.
Position the switch on the car frame.

Position a 150 mm magnetic stripe on the guiderail, in front of

the reed, at each level, using the provided brackets and cam to
install the magnets.
 31. LOAD CELL
The load detectors are installed between the car frame lower beam and the car platform.
There are 6 detectors in total :

Connect the detectors to the LMCAB unit located on the car top.
A junction box is provided so that each cell can be connected to the junction box, and then
the box to the car top unit.

Refer to the installation manual of the load cell for the setup procedure. For this
application, the parameters to be used are :

 nCAB = 6
 INDI = NO
 41. MACHINE STARTUP

Refer to the traction machine manual (Annex 91a, pages 26 to 31) for more detailed
instruction for the connection of the gearless machine G400 T2 provided with this
package.
 42. Counterweight Balancing

Perform the balancing of the counterweight once the car is fully assembled, before moving the lift
in normal speed.

To ensure the proper balancing of the counterweight frame, proceed as follows :

 Put half of the nominal load inside the car

 Move the car in maintenance mode (low speed)
 Measure the current absorbed by the motor when the car is approx. at half travel, going
up. Use the VVVF drive to perform the measurement
 Repeat the measurement while the car is at half travel, but going down

The two measurements must be roughly equal to confirm that the car is balanced.
 43. VVVF Drive Adjustment

The Fuji VVVF drive provided with this package is already set with the parameters specific
for this installation (including the setup for the regenerative drive)

It is however required to perform the still autotune on the machine, to acquire the phasing
of the motor encoder.

The procedure of the autotuning and autophasing is started through the keypad on the
drive :

 Press Prg
 Enter menu “2 Function Codes”
 Enter menu “2 Data Check”
 Enter menu P
 Set function P04 to 3 and press SET
 Give run command to the inverter (through the maintenance commands)
 Keep the run command until the autotuning is finished

More details on the initialization procedure are given in the inverter manual (annex 95a) :

 Paragraph 8.2 use of keypad

 Paragraph 9 initialization and autotune
 Paragraphs 10-11-12-13 speed profile
 Paragraph 14 fine tuning and troubleshooting
 Paragraph 15 alarm messages
 51. COMMISSIONING

CONTROLLER SETUP : CANBUS TESTING

Check the serial CAN communication between car top (Lex-C) and the controller (Lex-Q):

 Lex-Q board: on the LCD keypad a green LED must blink; if fixed ON or OFF the
CAN bus is not working (picture on the left side)
 Lex-C board: in the middle of the board a green LED must blink; if fixed ON or OFF
the CAN bus is not working (picture on the right side).

If the CAN bus is not working, check the following points :

 With controller powered off, the resistance between CAN-H and CAN-L must be
around 60 ohms; if it is about 120 ohms one CAN terminator is missing; if very high
the two terminators are missing.
 The CAN terminators can be enabled on Lex-Q dip switch SW1.CT1 (on controller
side) and on Lex-C SW.CT1

All this is indicated on the controller electrical schematics, and already set during the
factory test.

With no terminator the resistance is very high; with just one ON the resistance is 120
ohms; with two the resistance is 60 ohms, correct value.
CONNECTION OF BATTERIES :
In the main controller, connect the batteries to the PSC-160B power module :

 green wire => connect to black terminal

 red wire => connect to red terminal
CONTROLLER SETUP : OPERATION TESTING
Perform the testing of inspection mode of operation :

 Ensure the lift is in Inspection mode

 Move the lift in up direction (from the controller) : it should stop when reaching the
BCS magnet
 Move the lift in down direction (from the controller) : it should stop when reaching
the BCD magnet

CONTROLLER SETUP : FINAL SETTINGS

Few actions to have the lift ready for customer service:

 The on-board real-time clock requires a battery back-up

when the Lex-Q board is not powered. The battery is
delivered not connected (jumper on BOFF position) to avoid
its complete discharge from production to installation.
Move the jumper to BON position.
Set-up the clock: follow the instructions in the Rev.5 Manual
(“F0901_Lex-Rev. 5 User Manual” chapter “17. CLOCK”)
 Clear the fault log from any fault registered during the
installation mode.
Go to menu “99. ALARMS”, click on S4 until “CLEAR (S2)”
appears, then confirm as required and exit from menu
saving the parameters.
 Check the basic parameters (lift stops, number of doors,
type of doors and how to manage them), then start working
with the lift.
 Switch off inspection, check if the lift goes down to bottom
floor to reset the position.
 71. ADDITIONAL NOTES FOR EN81-20/50 COMPLIANCE

This lift is provided to be compliant with the new EN81-20/50 Lift Code. As such, it is
equipped with additional material and functions.

The following paragraphs are a quick summary of the main modifications from the usual
operation in accordance to the “old” EN81-1 Lift Code.

TEST A SINGLE BRAKE PAD (EN81-20 par. 6.3.1 b)

 Call the lift to any floor.

 In the controller, set the switch STF to ON : the lift will move automatically to the
top floor.
 Press S3 on the display of the Lex-Q board, release it and keep it pressed again
for a few seconds : this will place a call to the bottom floor.
 The display will show the car speed : when this stabilizes to a maximum
(nominal speed) keep pressed PKCC (this button prevents the short-circuit of
the phases of the motor, which would help to slow down the car) and press
PTF1 as well.
 The safety chain opens, causing the closing of the brake. However the PTF1
button will keep the power to the coil “1” of the brake. Check that the car is still
able to slow down and/or stop thanks to the second brake pad alone.
 Press S2 on the display of the Lex-Q board, release it and keep it pressed again
: this will place a call to the top floor. Wait for the lift to reach that level.
 Press S3 on the display of the Lex-Q board, release it and keep it pressed again
for a few seconds : this will place a call to the bottom floor.
 The display will show the car speed : when this stabilizes to a maximum
(nominal speed) keep pressed PKCC (this button prevents the short-circuit of
the phases of the motor, which would help to slow down the car) and press
PTF2 as well.
 The safety chain opens, causing the closing of the brake. However the PTF2
button will keep the power to the coil “2” of the brake. Check that the car is still
able to slow down and/or stop thanks to the second brake pad alone.
 Reset STF to OFF. The lift will reset to bottom floor and resume normal service.

Note : during the test it is possible that an error Er6 appears on the drive. This is caused by
the monitoring of the brake contact : in this case, just reset the drive as shown in the next
paragraph and perform the test of the other brake pad.
TEST OF BRAKE MONITORING FUNCTION

Check the opening / closing of the brakes :

 Put the lift into inspection from the main controller

 Inside the controller, disconnect the wire which powers the brake coil BR1+
 Move the lift using the pushbuttons S1 and S2 of the main board Lex-Q : the lift
must not move, and an error message must show on the drive
 Connect BR1+ back, and try to move the lift again : this time the command
should be accepted
 Repeat the test with BR2+

Check the control of the brake pads at the start :

 Call the car from a landing level

 With the drive in RUN mode, bridge between BC1 and BCC (on the drive)
 Wait for the time of the parameter L84
 After the time specified in L84, the drive must show the error bbE : if the error
does not appear, contact nova Elex
 Remove the bridge between BC1 and BCC
 Reset the drive as detailed in the next paragraph : if the drive does not reset,
contact Nova Elex

Check the control of the brake pads during the run :

 Call the car from a landing level (the travel must be enough to allow the time
indicated in parameter L84)
 With the drive in high speed, bridge between BC1 and BCC (on the drive)
 Wait for the time of the parameter L84 and the arrival of the car at landing
 At the arrival at landing, the drive must show the error bbE : if the error does
not appear, contact nova Elex
 Remove the bridge between BC1 and BCC
 Reset the drive as detailed in the next paragraph : if the drive does not reset,
contact Nova Elex

Check the control of the brake pads before the start :

 Remove input X4 from the drive

 Wait for the time of the parameter L84
 At the arrival at landing, the drive must show the error bbE : if the error does
not appear, contact nova Elex
 Re-connect X4
 Reset the drive as detailed in the next paragraph: if the drive does not reset,
contact Nova Elex

Repeat the three tests above with input BC2 (instead of BC1)

Note : during the test it is possible that an error E6 or bbE appears on the drive. This is
caused by the monitoring of the brake contact : in this case, just reset the drive as
shown in the next paragraph and perform the test of the next brake pad.
RESET OF ERROR Er6 OR bbE ON THE FUJI LM2A VVVF DRIVE

The following error codes may be caused by anomalies in the management of the
brake. They can also happen during some tests :

 Er6 : check on the VVVF drive that the parameter E23 is set to 114, and
parameters E04 and E05 set to 111 and 112 respectively
 BbE : check that the signal from the brake monitoring contacts is correctly
received (open with brake open, closed with brake closed)

To reset the error, proceed as follows :

 Use the keypad on the drive

 Press PRG
 Scroll to menu 2. Function Codes and press SET
 Scroll to menu 2. Data Check and press SET
 Scroll to menu H. High Perform and press SET
 Scroll to parameter H95 and press SET
 Set parameter H95 to 111
 Press SET : the value of H95 goes back to 0
 Press PRG : the main menu will show again, and the error is still present
 Press RESET : the error is cleared (note : if the error is not cleared, it means
that the cause of the error is still present, or that the drive is malfunctioning)

TEST OF DOOR BYPASS FUNCTION

The door bypass function allows to bridge the contacts of the safety chains related
to either the car door(s) or the landing doors. This is done using a 3-positions
switch inside the main controller

While the switch is in “NORMAL” position, the controller does operate normally.

Car door(s) :

 While the lift is stopped at floor, set the bypass switch to “CAR”. The lift goes
automatically into maintenance mode from controller.
 The close status of the car door(s) is monitored by a primary contact (wired on
the safety chain) and by an auxiliary contact. If the auxiliary contact is closed
(meaning that the door is physically closed) it is possible to move the lift
bypassing the primary safety contact.

Landing doors :

 While the lift is stopped at floor, set the bypass switch to “LANDING”. The lift
goes automatically into maintenance mode from controller.
 It is possible to move the lift bypassing the safety contacts of the landing doors.
MAINTENANCE MODE

The maintenance mode can be activated from three locations :

Maintenance mode from controller :

 It is activated by setting the switch “MMQ” (inside the controller) to “INS”.

Maintenance mode from car top :

 It is activated by setting the car top switch to “INSPECTION”.

 The activation of the maintenance mode from the car top overrides the
maintenance mode from the controller (i.e. it is not possible to move the car
from the controller)
 If the maintenance mode from pit is active as well, the up and down buttons are
disabled (it is not possible to move the car)

Maintenance mode from pit :

 It is activated by setting the pit switch to “INSPECTION”.

 The activation of the maintenance mode from the pit overrides the maintenance
mode from the controller (i.e. it is not possible to move the car from the
controller)
 If the maintenance mode from car top is active as well, the up and down buttons
are disabled (it is not possible to move the car)

Regardless of the maintenance mode, when the car is moved down, an audible and
luminous (blinking) warning is activated under the car.

Regardless of the maintenance mode, it is possible to check if a stop of the lift was
caused by the opening of the doors, either car or landing :

 If the stop is caused by the opening of a car door, on the Lex-Q board the
relais R3 of the safety chain will be off.
 If the stop is caused by the opening of a landing door, on the Lex-Q board
the relais R4 of the safety chain will be off.

When the car is moved up in maintenance mode, the travel is limited by the FCM
limit (located on the car top) : when the limit is triggered by its cam, the car stops.
To ensure enough working space on the car top, the cam shall be located so that
the movement of the car is stopped when the distance from car top to bottom of
headroom is equal or more than 2000 mm.
ACCESS TO THE PIT

 Enter the pit using the landing door of the bottom level, and the ladder installed
on the wall : when the landing door is opened with the emergency key, the lift
goes automatically into inspection (this is the same as putting the lift into
inspection mode from the controller – see previous paragraph)
 Use the pit maintenance box to turn the lift mode to inspection from there as
well.
 At the end of the maintenance tasks, reset the switch on the pit maintenance
box to normal : the lift won’t leave the inspection mode yet.
 Exit the pit and close the landing door.
 For PRISMA landing doors only : reset the contact of the emergency unlocking
using the special key (through the small opening located at side of the
emergency release)
 Reset the control panel using the button PRMP (which can be either inside the
controller, or in a separate box located at the bottom floor)
