The safety circuit is supplied with 24..52 V regulated DC voltage. This
compensates for safety circuit voltage losses from long lengths of
cable, oxidized contacts etc.

Note!
With open safety circuit, the voltage is 52 VDC!

2.6 Hoistway Information

The hoistway information consists of the following two main systems
the AGSI and the ALSIS.

2.6.1 AGSI System

• Absolute Encoder Shaft Information, AGSI
• Magnetic- or Optical KUET elements

After having the tooth belt tensioned, execute the following steps:
• Execute Measuring Travel
• Adjust "Tacho Factor" if necessary
• Check Leveling Accuracy and adjust if necessary

2.7 *Critical I/Os and Service TAB
Danger
Proper functioning of critical I/Os in an installation is safety
relevant. Therefore following points must be considered:
• All critical I/Os must be realized with normally closed
contacts.
• In multiplex installations, critical I/Os must be connected
to two different elevators in the group. The two contacts
must be galvanically separated (see graphic below).

Critical I/O connected to two elevators in the group

Service TAB
Critical I/Os are monitored by the MX-GC software. If a node with a
critical I/O gets lost, the service TAB (technical out of service) will be
activated after a delay of 30 minutes.

Caution
Activation of “Service Visit” by SMLCD temporarily deacti-
vates the monitoring of critical I/Os. This is only allowed
during maintenance work on the installation and prevents
the whole elevator group going to service TAB.

• For the execution of the tests, refer to the relevant
commissioning instruction.

Test
DC Link Verifies DC Link operation with voltage measurement,
Test t0 function of SH, SGRW, rectifier and status of capacitor
battery, braking chopper operation. If required, DC Link
capacitors will be reformed (see "CapFormingTest").
Conditions: Safety circuit closed (SH)
Execution: Refer to "Tests" in K 604441 Commissioning.
Current- Verifies FC (SKiiP), wiring from FC to MH, inductivity,
Loop t1 load symmetry and that the circuit from FC to MH is
closed and a symmetrical current flows.
Conditions: Safety circuit closed (SH)
ZeroPosi- Permanent Magnet-Synchronous motors
tion t3 (PMS230/400/420 PMA350/SM250) only:
Determines by how many degrees the position of
absolute value encoder of MH differs from rotor zero
position. Result of this test is in parameter "TR

Conditions:
• MH has to be equipped with an absolute value
encoder "SINCOS2048 EnDat".
• Successful DC Link Test and Current Loop Test
• Safety circuit closed (SH)
• Test must not be interrupted, otherwise an incorrect
value will be saved.
Execution: Refer to "Tests" in K 604441 Commissioning.

General Information

Danger: High Voltage

• Prior to work on elevator ensure that no voltage is
> 50 VAC
• Prior to work on FC power unit ensure that DC link is
completely discharged (0 V)
• Do not plug in/unplug any connector until corresponding
devices are switched OFF
• When handling PCBs, always keep to rules concerning
"Handling MOS/CMOS"
• Bypassing safety circuit without express instruction is
prohibited
• Prior to work on door drive, switch power supply OFF. Up
to 564 VDC (at 400VAC) can be present on intermediate
circuit of power electronics
• Even when JHCT is pressed, 24 VDC (LONBUS) is still
on LONIBV PCB.

Caution
• Do not execute electric works when installation is live
• VF11..44BR only: Removing the FC cover results in loss
of warranty claim.

Note
• In case of a serious malfunction and MX-UI with SMLCD
is not sufficient, CADI GC can be used
• To switch OFF LONIBV PCB, JHCT must be pressed and
connector X6 (LONT) disconnected.

Double reset MX-GC

Press "Reset" on GCIOB PCB once. Wait until you hear a beep (and
red LED on GCIOB PCB goes OFF) - press "Reset" once more. Wait
until elevator control has booted and re initialized completely.
