implements coordination between elevators to respond to hall calls and improves the

Parameter Setting
The NICE5000 parallel control system is compatible with the NICE3000 system.
To use parallel control, connect the CAN2+ and CAN2- terminals of CN6 on the controller to
respectively the corresponding terminals on the other one.
If a NICE3000 is used, connect CAN2 terminals on the NICE5000 to the CAN terminals on
the NICE3000 (F6-08 for the elevator using the NICE3000 can only be set to 2).
The following table lists the parameter setting of parallel control.

Master elevator: 1
Slave elevator: 2

Address Setting of Physical Floors
Physical oor, relative to the NICE control system, is dened by the installation position of
the leveling plate.
The floor (such as the ground floor) at which the lowest leveling plate is installed
corresponds to physical oor 1.
The top physical oor is the accumulative number of the leveling plates.
In parallel mode, the physical floor numbers of the same floor for two elevators are
consistent.
If the oor structures of two elevators are different, physical oors should start with the oor
with the lowest position.
The physical oors at the overlapped area of the two elevators are the same.
Even if one elevator does not stop a oor in the overlapped area, a leveling plate should be
installed there. You can make the elevator not stop at the oor by setting service oors.
When two elevators are in parallel mode, the addresses of the HCBs should be set
according to physical floors. Parallel running can be implemented only when the HCB
address set for one elevator is the same as that for the other elevator in terms of the same
oor.
Note
In parallel mode, the top oor (F6-00) and bottom oor (F6-01) of the elevators should be set
based on corresponding physical oors.
