TESTING OPERATION
The following features must be verified as operational before the elevator can be released to
the customer.
TO AVOID PERSONAL INJURY, NEVER STAND
DIRECTLY UNDER THE CAB OR INSIDE THE
HOISTWAY DURING TESTING.
1. Cab Key Switch
Verify that when the key is in the OFF position, the buttons on the cab station are
inoperable. When turned ON, the landing buttons should be inoperable.
2. Call/Send Controls
Verify that controls are inoperable whenever a landing door or the cab gate is left in the
open position, or when the key switch is in the OFF position.
3. Emergency Car Stop Key
Verify that turning the stop key to the STOP position, stops the elevator from running and
stops the sliding doors from moving.
4. Door Interlock
Verify the following:
a) Door Switch: Verify that when the door is left open, the car will not run in any
direction from any station. Check all controls at all stations.
b) Lock: Verify that the door is locked after 2 inches of movement away from the
landing. If necessary, adjust the cam accordingly.
c) Cab Gate (Optional): Verify that all controls are inoperable if the gate is left in the
open position.
5. Pit Switch and Car Top Stop Switch
Turning either switch to the OFF should render all controls inoperable.
6. Emergency Light
Verify that the emergency light comes on anytime that the 110 volt power to the
equipment is interrupted.
7. Emergency Lowering
Verify that when the power to the elevator (both 110 volt and 220 volts) is disconnected,
the DOWN button controls in the cab remain operable allowing the cab to operate in the
DOWN direction only.
8. Cab Telephone (Option)
Verify that the cab telephone is operable.
9. Photo Eyes (Option)
Verify that the sliding doors will reopen if either photo eye is blocked.
10. Make sure that the travelling cable is running free and clear from all obstructions
while the cab travels to all floors being served.
