Startup - Inspection Operation
3-10 Manual # 42-02-1P21
Installing the Magnetic Strips on LS-QUTE Steel Tape
Carefully, read and follow the Magnet Installation instructions in the job prints, but read the
rest of these instructions before proceeding.
1. Before installing the magnets, clean the steel tape thoroughly with an appropriate sol-
vent. No oil should be left on the tape as it will interfere with the adhesive backing on the
magnets.
2. There are normally five lanes of magnets installed on the side of the tape facing the car.
One lane consists of only the LU/DZ/DZX/LD and requires that a 6-inch magnet be
installed at each floor. The other lanes have magnets which initiate slow downs or act as
Absolute Floor Encoding (AFE) set points.
3. If the installation has rear doors, it may have an LS-QUTE landing system which has
additional Door Zone sensors on the rear of the upper tape guide assembly. Follow the
Magnet Installation instructions in the job prints and install the front and rear Door
Zone magnets on the steel tape as shown.
Installing the LS-QUTE Hoistway Limit Switches
• The terminal landing slowdown switches should be installed and adjusted to open approx-
imately one inch beyond the point where a normal slowdown (STU/STD) is initiated.
• The direction limit switches should be installed and adjusted to open approximately one
inch beyond the terminal landings.
• The emergency terminal slowdown switch (if required) should open after the direction
limit is open, but before striking the stop ring. Install and adjust the switch where it will
not interfere with Inspection or Automatic operation while leveling or releveling. It must
also be adjusted to achieve the required operation according to the applicable elevator
code.
• Ensure that the cam that operates the slowdown and limit switches maintains the terminal
slowdown switch open until the direction limit switch and emergency terminal slowdown
switches (if required) are open.
• Ensure that the terminal slowdown, direction limit and emergency terminal slowdown
switches are held open for the entire run-by or over-travel of the elevator.
• The hoistway access limit switch (if required) should be installed and adjusted to open and
stop the elevator (in the down direction) when the top of the elevator is approximately
level with the top landing (when the top hoistway access switch is activated while on
Access or Inspection operation).
