1-12 Manual # 42-02-2M01 A1
Emergency Medical Operation
This mode complies to Massachusetts code. It allows a car to be recalled to a floor where it can
be boarded by medical personnel and placed in restricted service, using an in-car switch, to
respond to a medical emergency.
• Recall: Initiated using a key switch (EMSH input) at the floor assigned by the Massachu-
setts EMS Service/EMS Service Floor parameter in the Extra Features menu (single
switch, single floor).
• The car will immediately cancel all registered calls, return to the designated floor, and
open its doors.
• In-Car Medical: Medical personnel board the car and place it in hospital service using the
in-car switch (EMSC input).
• If the hall switch has been shut off, the car will wait sixty seconds then return to nor-
mal service if the in-car switch has not been activated.
• If the hall switch remains on, the car will wait without restriction until the in-car
switch is activated.
Hospital Service
Please refer to “HOSPITAL EMERG. OPERATION?” on page 4-47. Hospital service allows a car
to be recalled to any of one or more assigned floors using a call button at the floor. Once at the
floor, the car may be boarded by medical personnel and placed in restricted service, using an in-
car switch, to respond to a medical emergency.
• Recall: Floors and openings (if the car has front and rear doors) are designated as hospital
service through Hospital Emerg Operation parameters in the Extra Features Menu. Please
refer to “Extra Features Menu Options” on page 4-44. When a designated call button is
activated, the car will recall to the floor.
• The car will immediately cancel all registered calls, move to the call floor, and open its
doors.
• A Timer Menu function, Hospital Emergency Timer, allows a timer to be set for a
range of up to 10 minutes. After a car recalls to the designated floor, it will remain
there until the timer expires, after which it will return itself to automatic passenger
service if the in-car, hospital service switch has not been activated.
• Operation: Once the in-car switch (HOSP input assigned through the Spare Inputs Menu)
is activated, the car is in restricted service and will accept only calls assigned through the
car operating panel.
• When the in-car switch is deactivated, the car returns to normal service.
