1. About the EMCS Emergency Consolidator
1.1 Key Features
 ASME A17.1/CSA B44 Safety Code for Elevators requires the means to call into
any elevator from within a tall building with elevator travel greater than 60’ (18m).
The EMCS Consolidator manages this operation through its handset and any
connected remote handsets, overriding off-site calls in progress.
 Intuitive visual and audible indications for system operation and call routing
- Colour-coded touch-control icons indicate each elevator phone status
- Voice prompts announce current system status to any handset away from
the main display, either on-site or off-site, with on-site CID display
 System-wide page (ALL CALL) from on- or off-site to all elevators
 2 concurrent calls to reduce wait time in a broad emergency
