21 VIP
A car configured for VIP will be selected when this mode of operation is activated by a specially
configured Hall board. The car will service all existing car calls and ignore all hall calls until all
existing car calls have been serviced. The car now responds to a VIP hall call and opens the
doors. There is a minimum of five seconds allowed for a VIP entry for a new car call. Once all car
calls have been serviced, the car exits VIP mode.
22 Active Shooter
Active Shooter is a type of auto operation that prevents a shooter from having easy access to
an additional way to escape. Active shooter is enabled by a key switch.
When Active Shooter is enabled, the car automatically closes the doors, the PI Display alternate
between floor label and crisis (CR), and the cars do not respond to any hall or car calls. All cars
within the group are recalled to an alternate recall floor, the doors open, and remain open.
When Active Shooter is disabled, all cars go back to normal operation.
To set the controller to active shooter, see section 20.1 Adding an Input or Output.
23 Marshal Mode
Marshal Mode is a type of auto operation that takes the car out of the group and is enabled via
a key switch input. When the key switch is enabled, the car clears all latched car and hall calls,
then stops at the next available landing. Both front and rear doors remain closed regardless of
people being inside the car.
The car will not respond to any hall calls or car calls and the front and rear door open and close
buttons are disabled. When the car stops at the closest available landing, it waits for commands
from the marshal using the remote controller.
When the marshal makes a car call, the car will go to the landing corresponding to the car call
button. When the car reaches the landing, the doors will remain closed. The marshal needs to
hold the door open button until the doors are fully opened otherwise the doors goes back to its
closed state. Once the doors are fully open, the doors stays open. To close the doors, the
marshal needs to hold the door close button until the doors are fully closed otherwise the
doors go back to its opened state.
If the marshal makes multiple car calls, when the car reaches the landing, the car will wait for
10 seconds for the marshal to press and hold the door open button. If the marshal does not
press the door open button until the door fully opens within the 10 second timeout, the car will
be dispatched to the next latched car call landing. Once the doors are fully open, the car will
keep its latched car calls and will not be dispatched to the next latched car call landing. Once
the doors are fully closed, the car will be dispatched to the next latched car call landing.
