General
• Position Encoder resolution: Used to set the position encoder resolution. Set to 348 for
iLand-x-C Compact Landing System. Set to 256 for iLand-x-H Landing System.
• Pattern scaling: Scaling factor applied to all programmed speeds. This is used during
adjustment to move the car slowly to verify drive operation, etc. May be set from 0 to
150%. At 0%, no pattern command output voltage is produced so the car should not move.
At 100%, the car will move at the high speed set for the selected operating mode.
• Lag delay: Used to compensate for drive and hoist motor response. This value acts as a
‘look ahead’ time, telling the speed profile generator the amount of time it takes the car to
follow the speed demand. A setting of 0.0 seconds assumes the car will precisely follow the
speed profile with no delay. The more sluggish the system, the larger the number required
to compensate for drive tracking. Higher values make the system initiate changes in the
profile sooner since the car will not follow the demanded profile closely. Setting this value
too large will lengthen the amount of time the elevator spends leveling.
• Door pre-opening distance: When set, this is the distance from the final floor position at
which door pre-opening is initiated. If no distance is set, door pre-opening is disabled.
