Loop and Fault LED’s
The Green LED (D1) will flash every 2 seconds to signify power to node and
that the node is running.
The Red LED (D2) will light continuously for 4 seconds when the node is first
powered up. After this point the red LED signifies various fault codes. The LED
will do a quick flash every 4 seconds if the node has a fault.

1 flash every 4 secs = Node not communicating with Ethos or EMU.
2 flashes every 4secs = Node is experiencing data bus faults.
3 flashes every 4 secs = Node has stopped transmitting due to bus faults.
4 flashes every 4 secs = Node has stopped transmitting or receiving from the
data bus

Ethos 2 Car Module
The Car Module is designed to be mounted on the lift car. It is used to supply Ethos 2 with
door and other car COP signals. The unit has a built in 3-axis accelerometer for ride profile
monitoring, so must be mounted securely to avoid false triggering of the accelerometer.
I/O includes:- 8 volt free relay outputs, 12 x 24V d.c. feature inputs and 8 call I/Os. These
can be configured via the Ethos 2 MMI.
The module can additionally be used to interface to a load cell for load weighing. An RS232/
485 connection is supplied to drive car indicators or speech units.
Please consult main drawings for contract specific wiring and setup.
