Ascending Car Overspeed Test
The mechanic must determine appropriate weight, if any, to be placed in the car for this test.
1. Bring the empty car to the bottom floor with car and hoistway doors closed and locked.
2. Observe car speed at F3 POSTN SPEED and stand by to engage brake if governor over-
speed switch fails to open.
3. Use your preferred method to mechanically release the machine brake. The car will start
to move up the hoistway.
4. When the governor overspeed switch opens, the emergency brake will engage, stop, and
hold the car.
5. Reset the emergency brake: TC-MPI board, press/hold EB RST for 8 seconds.
Safety Tests
This is a two part test. Car safety testing verifies proper operation of car safeties. The objective is
to set the safeties causing the machine to break traction. The overspeed must be sufficient to
cause the governor to trip mechanically and set the car safeties. The electrical governor switch
must not prevent the car from reaching the mechanical trip speed and the safety operated
switch (plank switch) must not open the safety string.
Car Safety Test
1. Run the car to the top landing.
2. Set F3 > Controller System Menu > AUTOMATIC MODE FAULT BYPASS = BYPASS
ON.
3. KEB/TorqMAX Only: Set LF.22 Gear Ratio to LF.25 x 2.
4. Set F7 Parameter 141 PROFILE SCALE to 115% (mechanical tripping speed is typically
about 115% of Contract Speed).
5. Bypass the Electrical Governor Switch by placing a jumper from GOS1 to GOS2.
6. Place a call to the bottom landing.
7. As the car over speeds:
• The governor will trip
• Safeties will set
• The machine will break traction
• Car will stop
8. Place on Inspection. Reset the governor.
9. Return F7 controller parameters (and KEB/TorqMAX drive) to their original values.
10. If necessary (unintended motion fault occurred), on the TC-MPI board, press and hold
the EB RST button for 8 seconds.
11. Set F3 > Controller System Menu > AUTOMATIC MODE FAULT BYPASS = BYPASS
OFF.
12. Remove the jumper between GOS1 and GOS2.
13. On the HC-CTL board, place a jumper between terminals SAFC and SAFH.
14. Run the car up on Inspection to release the safeties.
15. Remove the jumper between the CTL board terminals SAFC and SAFH.
