Motion 4000 Traction Elevator Control
1-16 Manual # 42-02-2P24
Monitoring and Control Options
Motion 4000 is Ethernet capable, allowing it to use iMonitor and iReport applications for local
and/or distance monitoring and control or report generation, archival, and automated alert.
Motion 4000 can be linked to Building Management System software through MCE BMS-Link,
providing system visibility and limited control. A machine room-only monitoring and control
application, mView, is also available.
iMonitor
iMonitor is an elevator monitoring application that allows local or remote viewing and control
of MCE elevator groups using a personal computer running the Windows XP or Windows 7
operating system. Because Motion 4000 controls are Ethernet capable, you can connect to them
though a local area network or remotely through internet technology.
iMonitor provides a graphical representation of elevator groups, allowing their activity and sta-
tus to be quickly and easily viewed. The user defines any number of “Connection Sets.” Each
Connection Set consists of up to fifty connections to elevator group dispatchers selected by the
user.
When working in iMonitor, the user simply clicks on a Connection Set which automatically
establishes communication with all groups in the set and displays their associated hoistways
and cars on the computer screen. Practical viewing limits are established by the speed of the
connections and the size of the monitor viewing area.
When connected through iMonitor, the user may register car and general, auxiliary, or special
hall calls as desired, control many group security functions, and enable or disable certain eleva-
tor operating modes.
iReport
iReport is a system logging and report generating tool that allows local or remote analysis of
MCE elevator groups from a personal computer running the Windows XP or Windows 7 operat-
ing system and iReport client software. Because Motion 4000 controls are Ethernet capable,
you can use iReport to connect to them through a local area network or remotely through inter-
net/modem technology.
iReport consists of the iReport server and iReport clients. Motion 4000 group dispatchers may
be connected to iReport directly through a local area network or they may be connected
remotely through the internet. The group dispatcher provides iReport with hall call and car
operating mode information. The individual car controllers provide iReport with event and
fault notifications.
