Note
When running a test, you are allowed only one “motion cycle” of the car. If the test is not satis-
factory, you will have to re-select that test to begin again. Remember that fault bypasses set for
the test will time-out after 15 minutes. If you are delayed in completing a test, you may have to
cycle the Fault Bypass switch to reset the fault bypasses.
Results Faults triggered by the tests are reported on the Operational Status tab and the
Event Log. Non-latching (self-clearing) faults will only appear on the Operational Status tab for
a few moments. Check the Event Log if the triggered faults have already disappeared from the
Operational Status tab.
The following test descriptions provide information specific to each test.
Danger
Be prepared to stop a runaway car if necessary, using the iBox Stop switch. During testing, normal
system safeties are disabled. Exercise extreme caution. Be prepared to take control and stop the ele-
vator if necessary. Only QUALIFIED PERSONNEL, with adequate experience and knowledge of ele-
vator equipment should attempt elevator adjustment and testing.
