HYDROFIT™ Owner’s Information Manual
WARNING: The use and ownership of this work is defined in the legend upon the front page hereof.
Telephone/Service Cabinet
A telephone cabinet is an optional cabinet mounted below the car operating panel
and contains a communication device (telephone or intercom provided by others). A
service cabinet can contain special keyswitches as ordered.
Hands-Free Phone
A Hands-Free Phone is a device that helps trapped or disabled passengers call for
help. No handset is required, allowing for hands-free operation.
Fixtures can perform special features for security, emergencies, or management
operations to a single elevator or group of elevators. These are generally
keyswitches operated by designated persons or emergency personnel, such as
firemen. Some of these fixtures are standard equipment, while others are optional
or variable and dependent on other features your system may employ.
Control Features
The elevator is capable of enhanced functionality well beyond the basic elevator
operation of moving your passengers between the building’s landings. For example,
you may want to override passenger calls and place the elevator under your direct
control or have the elevator bypass particular floors. There are numerous control
feature options that your elevator is capable of performing. In most cases the action
occurs automatically by software instructions or by direct user control, such as
activating a key operated switch, or by a combination of the two. The feature may
perform an individual action, a combination of actions, and may apply to a single
elevator or a group of elevators. The following is a complete feature listing, divided
into feature groups, and how they are initiated. The features included with your
system are listed on documents prepared by your Otis representative at the
time of the sale.
Group: Car Operation Features
Full Collective Operation
Full Collective Operation answers calls in the order in which floors are reached,
regardless of the sequence in which the calls were registered. Only car calls and up
hall calls will be answered when the car is traveling up, and only car calls and down
hall calls will be answered when the car is traveling down. When the car reaches
the last registered call for the established direction, it reverses and proceeds to
answer calls in the opposite direction (if they are present). In the absence of further
calls, the car remains at the floor where the last call was answered with doors closed
(or park at an alternate landing).
Simplex Operation
Simplex Operation is a single car operating in full collective operation, answering
calls in the order in which floors are reached, regardless of the sequence in which
the calls were registered. See “Full Collective Operation” for further information.
