Arcode Pit Entry Reset Procedure V1.10

1. Pit Entry Reset Procedure

According to EN81-20, when a person enters the shaft pit and turns the pit-inspection key switch to “INS” position, a manual
reset is needed for the lift to resume normal operation even if the pit-inspection switch is returned to “NORM” position.
There are 2 methods for resetting this “Pit-Entered Mode” on Arcode:
1.1. Method-1: With a Physical Key
A normally open key-switch must be connected to one of the programmable inputs of Arcode or its peripherals. This
programmable input must be assigned to “(IPR) Reset pit-inspection” function in the parameter menu.
For resetting, the key must be turned to ON (closed) position and be kept there. Arcode will attempt to close the doors if opened,
will energize the LIR (retiring cam) output and check for 140 signal. If 140 signal is ON, Arcode will resume normal operation
after 5 seconds. The key must then be released to OFF position.
1.2. Method-2: Without a Physical Key
This method can only be used in lifts working in simplex mode (not connected to other lifts in a group). For resetting, the call
button of the lowest floor LOP must be pressed in a special pattern.
The pattern is:
• Quickly push the LOP call button 3 times
• Give a pause
• Quickly push the LOP call button 3 times
• Give a pause
• Quickly push the LOP call button 3 times
After sensing this pattern, Arcode will attempt to close the doors if opened, will energize the LIR (retiring cam) output and check
for 140 signal. If 140 signal is ON, Arcode will resume normal operation.
