1.2.2 The call acceptance indicator card
This card controls the operation of the call acceptance indicators for the car and landings.
As shown in the diagram below the return for the call acceptance indicator is the same wire as for the call buttons.
Fig. 1.2
Advantages of this solution:
• Transforming a S.A.P.B controller into a down collective does not require the addition of
additional wiring.
• There is also the possibility to have call acceptance, lift in service indicator, with a S.A.P.B system
as with a down collective.
•
Warning
• This card is connected to connectors 18 of the main card.

Before inserting the connection make sure that the main card is disconnected from the power
supply.
• When using direction arrows, connect the +24V terminal of the card indicator to the 24V dc of the
JP2 terminal block of the NG12 card.
Be careful: The CFL terminal and the two direction arrows relays only appear on cards that have been sold
from June 1996.

1.2.3 Position indicator cards : 1 wire per floor (Aux.2 or Aux. 3 or Aux5)
In the case of a bulb or other position indicator that does not require a 3 wires connection, it is necessary to use one of these
two interfaces to be connected on the indicator output D01 (see 1.2.1/5 and 1.2.1/7).

•
• The TOC card can be installed on the roof of the car or in the controller.
• If they are installed in car, allow for an armoured-screened cable to connect to the TOC in the
controller.
• The I422 card is installed in each individual controller, allow for an armoured screened cable to
connect to each I422
• The COM_X is installed in every individual controller. Allow for an armoured screened cable to
connect to every COM_X.
1) To construct an NG12 DUPLEX system, two I422 cards are used (see 5.2.2.1):
Fig. 1.6
Date : 13/09/2002
2) To construct a "serial link" between the car and the controller (see NOTE) it is necessary to use one
I422 card and one TOC card:
Fig. 1.7
Date : 13/09/2002
3) To construct a NG12 DUPLEX and a serial link between the cars and the controllers the use of two
COM_D / COM_X cards and two TOC cards are necessary:
COM_D COM_D
COM_X COM_X
Fig. 1.8
NOTE: the "serial link" between the controller and the car makes the wiring easier. Each door open/close limits
contact, photocell contact, door open / close and dispatch call button and indicator are all connected to the TOC
card indeed. All the data are supplied through 4 wires whatever is the number of floors (until 24 floors).

1.3 THE PROGRAM
The program which is contained in the EPROM (see 1.2.1/16) is unique whatever is the installation or the card to be fitted.
There is only the program of the parameters (Cf.1.2.1/14) and the controller wiring that makes the difference between two
installations. It is therefore possible to switch round the two NG12 cards by:
• programming the new card (parameters of the installation)

• or
• switching round the data memories to save parameters of the previous card.
Finally to allow the upgrading of existing installations, so as new standards, new software are created. Anyway they
remain compatible with all the other cards previously used.

2 - INSTALLATION
2.1 CONNECTION
2.1.1 Use during installation
If you want to use the controller while adjustment, make the following temporary connections:
Fig 2.1 - Temporary connection
ATTENTION: Before the final operation, do not forget to remove any temporary connection made during the
temporary use of the controller.
2.1.2 Final connection
To connect your installation, see the schematics provided with the controller on delivery. Nevertheless, please find
hereafter a description of the different contacts to use.
• Landing push buttons (Cf. 1.2.1/1):

The landing station buttons inputs, entrance A and entrance B, are identical (selective opening is therefore
impossible).
NOTE: With a down collective, the program controls the order in which the landing calls are handled:
- When going up from the basement to the ground floor
- When going down from other floors.
Date : 13/09/2002
• Car station buttons (Cf. 1.2.1/1; 1.2.4.2/4; 1.2.4.3/4):

The functioning of the car buttons is exactly the same as for the landing buttons.
• Diverse Contacts (Cf. 1.2.1/3 and 4; 1.2.4.2/7, /8, /9, /10, /11):
•
AGH, AGB: High speed limit switch (up and down).
NC: These contacts force the slow speed at top floor level and reset the selector (program).
The positioning of these contacts in the shaft is extremely important for the position pulsing of
the lift car (see 3.2.9 and 4.1.1).
BFR Door-close-contact, NO, operated by door close button in lift car (see 3.2.19).
CCO NC contact, which open if the main contact(s) fails to drop out when the lift stops, e.g. contact
welded. Pre-wired by MEA, (see 4.3.3/02).
CEA Safety edge, door open contact entrance A programmable (see 3.2.18)
COM Full load contact, NO, closes at full load
EL 1 to 4 Special applications with refer to the schematic-wiring diagram supplied with the
controller.
FFA Door close contact, NC, opens when door closes entrance A
FOA Door open contact, NC, opens when door opens entrance A
FOB, FFB, CEB Identical to the entrance A but for entrance B

2.2 PRECAUTIONS
2.2.1 Precaution against parasites
All possible precautions have been taken with respect to parasites, to counter human error, markings, with each card.
Nevertheless it is recommended that you take the following precautions:
• Earth all metal parts .

• Earth all unused conductors (side of the controller only).
• Use a different trailing flex to connect the 24V circuit (see 2.2.3).
• The other voltages 48V, 110V, 220V, and 380V can be mixed.
2.2.2 Protection of the circuits (tracks and components)
• It is IMPERATIVE that the fuse sizes are respected

• It is recommended to use 24V photocell rather than 220V to avoid the mixing between the 24V
and any other voltage.
Date : 13/09/2002
2.2.3 Checks before switching on the mains
To check the wiring and avoid a deterioration or a destruction of a card (in case of error), make sure by carrying out these
two tests (see below) before connecting the 24V (contacts 1 to 7).
• First test: Verify that there is no voltage greater than 30V (ac or dc) between the 24V terminal
and the earth bar.
• Second test: Repeat the first test but for the voltage between the 24V terminal and the terminal
REF “24CC” card power supply.

3 – PROGRAMMING
Parameters of the installation necessary to configure the NG12 card are memorised at the factory as per the purchase order.
Parameters can be changed by using the SHARP PCE 500 programmer. It is also possible to parameterise a card in stock.
3.1 USING THE SHARP PCE 500

For all programming operation please refer to the SHARP manual.
Note: The programming of parameters is possible while the lift operates. Cut and then restore the electrical current for the
modified parameters to be registered.
3.2 PARAMETER LIST
3.2.1 Control system
Choice in respect with the installation
3.2.2 Erase all registered landing calls (pre-set MEA: No)
This parameter is available only with a full collective system and must only be used with a simplex arrangement.
• If you enter “No” : the calls will be erased normally according to the direction of the car. The car
/landing calls for rising will be erased by going up, and the car / landing calls for descending will
be erased by going down, and both if there is no more car or landing calls registered.
• If you enter “Yes” : each time a car stops at floor all registered car calls, landing. up and landing
down calls of the designated floor shall be erased irrespective of the direction of travel. In the case
of a double entrance the erasing will correspond with the doors which open. The choice of this
option allows futile trips being made in buildings where the occupants have in the habit of
pressing both up and down landing button at the same time.
3.2.3 Traction
Choice in accordance with the installation.
3.2.4 Fire Detection (Standard U36)
When a fire is detected the lift reacts in the following way:
• If the lift car is at another floor than the one of the fire, the landing and car calls at the burning
floor are forbidden.
• If the car is at the same floor as the fire :
door open is forbidden
door closing (if open when fire was detected)
car is sent to another floor
The fire detection inputs are taken from the landing and car call inputs because of this if the U36 parameter is chosen it is
important that the total floor number parameter (see 3.2.6) does not exceed the maximum number of floors imposed by the
control system.
• See table 1.2.4

A message “No of permitted floors exceeded” appears on the Sharp if you exceed the permitted number of floors by
writing the U36 parameters.
Date : 13/09/2002
3.2.5 Serial car link
This parameter permits the use of the TOC and COM_D with the NG12 (see 1.2.4).
Communication between these 2 cards is only possible by entering “yes”.
3.2.6 Switches inputs on TOC card
By entering "yes", REV, REM, RED, FFA, FOB, CEA, FFB, FOB, CEB, SUR, BFR, COM, PCA, OLE "information"
switches are to be connected on the TOC card inputs or on the NG12 card inputs.
Switches are not to be connected on both cards at the same time. In any case, the car call buttons are connected on the TOC
and CP8 cards.
3.2.7 Floors served
Indicate the total number of floors served (maximum 12):

• See table 1.2.4
3.2.8 Number of basement floors (floors 0, -1, -2, etc.)
The program only uses this parameter in a down collective system to indicate the main floor where the car dispatch calls
switches are inverted (up direction at the main floor and basement). On other control systems the parameter is not
indicated.
3.2.9 Floor numbering
This numbering comes into play at the level of the car and landing position indicator output, D01, (see 1.2.1/5) and has no
affect on the response to landing calls (down collective), or the numbers shown by the card indicator which always starts at
0 whatever the case.
3.2.9.1 Sequential floor numbers

This parameter is used when there are no ‘jumps’ in the floor sequence.
Example: -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 etc....
3.2.9.2 Non sequential floor numbers

This parameter is particularly used for groups of lifts (even or odd numbers) when ‘skip floors’ are encountered.
Example: -3, -5, 0, 1, 7, 8, 3 etc.
The parameter adjust the floor numbers shown by the position indicator (-9, + 23).
3.2.9.3 Designation of the lowest floor level

Enter the real value of the lowest floor level. If it is negative put a « - » in front of the number.
IMPORTANT: From now, any parameter relative to the other floors is calculated according to your responses in 3.2.8.1 /
3.2.8.2 /3.2.8.3.
3.2.10 Slow speed (pre-set MEA « 5 », particularity excepted)
With this parameter you can select the point to signal the controller to switch to slow speed, whatever is the floor.
Date : 13/09/2002
Fig. 3.1. Down vane position
For example if you have a small distance interfloor distance by choosing «2», the lift will travel practically the whole
distance at slow speed. Pay attention to the PV fault timer (see 3.2.24).
Attention at the terminal floors!
It is essential in all cases that the terminal slowing (AGH or AGB) switch is positioned before the position chosen for the
switch to slow speed vane at both terminal floors.
Example 1: The slow speed vane parameter is set at 5 in this example
Fig 3.2
Date : 13/09/2002
Operation of example 1:
The lift car ascends just until the final stopping limit switch (AGH) the right hand digit of the card indicator illuminate
while the leds of the displacement sensors FAI, FAS (see 1.2.1/5) are still illuminated. The leds go out, then they each light
up twice before the final stop at floor level. This is the signal that the lift met then left two vanes.
At the terminal floors the two digits of the card indicator and the two leds remain illuminated to show the lift is at the
extreme of its travel.
Note: The left hand digit of the card indicator illuminates to show the lift is exactly at level even at intermediate floors.
Example 2: In this example the slowing vane parameter is set at 3

It is the same explanation as the first example but using three vanes for slowing before arriving at floor level.
Terminal floor
Fig 3.3
Note: To make the adjustment easier, choose an odd number for the slowing vane.
3.2.10.1 Slowing vane position identical for all floors

3
This parameter is used when all the interfloor distances are exactly the same.
3.2.10.2 Slowing vane position different at certain floors

As soon as an interfloor distance is not the same as the standard size, indicate the position of the slowing vane for each
interfloor.
3.2.11 Switch to slow speed on exiting the first vane
This question only appears when the exit from the first vane has been chosen in the question 3.2.9 for switching to slow
speed. If you answer “yes” the lift will travel the complete interfloor distance at slow speed if the EL1 input is activated. If
you chose to answer “no”, the lift starts at full speed then switches to slow speed on exiting the first vane.
3.2.12 Automatic return to zone or homing to a floor
If “yes” Indicate the floor to home to.

The time the lift waits before homing is adjustable (see 4.0.4 and 4.0.4.4)
When the lift arrives at the homing floor it does not open its doors.
3.2.13 Two entrances
“yes” for two entrances or “no” for only one entrance.

Date : 13/09/2002
3.2.14 Type of entrance
(a) No lift car door: landing doors, no car door or manual car door
(b) Automatic door: powered car door (s ) linked to landing doors by a clutch.
(c) Powered door, car only: manual landing door, car door (s) controlled
by the lift controller, they remain open at the floor.
(d) Independent car door: manual landing doors, car doors controlled independently of the lift controller.
Note: For the lifts with 2 entrances it is possible to have a different type of door at each entrance. In this case pay
particularly close attention to the schematic-wiring diagram supplied with the controller.
3.2.15 Recording of the use of the stop button
If you answer by yes and there is a break in the security circuit before SECU 3 and while the lift is moving with registered
car calls, all the calls are erased. Make another car call or cut SECU 4 to restart.
3.2.16 Advanced door opening
If the answer is “yes” to this option the lift starts to open its door from the moment the car enters the door zone. As a result
of this the door safety circuit is by passed.
The contacts responsible for this shunt must comply with the standards in force (see En 81 14.1.2.2 and 14.1.2.3). To this
end we use either a NC floor level switch, or any kind of unit to provide a supplementary pulse to the controller.
Fig 3.4
3.2.17 Automatic door without end limit switches
This parameter does not appear if you have opted either for option b or c in § 3.2.12 '
Type of entrance' .
If the entrance has open/close limits contacts reply “yes”.
If the entrance does not have l open/close limits reply “no”.
At the beginning of the door opening, the timer operates and the door open relay contact is cut at the end of the time
interval. It is identical for closing but the closing relay contact is cut.
"Double journey" faults are cancelled.
Adjustment of door open / close timer is made through the NG12 card keys (Cf 4.0.4.6 and 4.0.4.7).
Date : 13/09/2002
3.2.18 Selection of entrance
In the case of two entrances it is possible to chose which entrance to open (A or B or A and B).
Example :
etc.
A
B
B A Selection of through entrances
B
A
Fig 3.5 Lift with 2 entrances
3.2.19 Door open timer (pre-set MEA 10s)
This parameter appears only whether you chose (b) or (c) in § 3.2.12 ' Type of entrance’ and answered by yes at § 3.2.14
"Automatic doors with end limit switches".
In that case, put a value in seconds equal to the time for the door to move (opening or closing) plus several seconds (60s
maxi.).
If the door takes a time higher than the one parameterised before reaching the corresponding end limit switch, the open /
close door contact is also no longer supplied, as if the end limit switch was activated.
NOTE: If the door travel time is exceed while opening the door will attempt to close after the normal timed interval
(controlled by dwell timer).
On the other hand if the door travel time is exceed on closing and that there is no outstanding calls for the lift to serve, the
door remains just until a new call is registered. This note does not apply on inspection mode.
3.2.20 Timing before departure (pre-set MEA 3s)
This parameter only appears if you choose (a) or (d) in 3.2.12.

In that case the value (in seconds) you will enter, will correspond to the time of waiting (2 to 60s), if there are calls
registered before activating the high speed contact (cam order).
3.2.21 Photocells NO or NF
• Cell NO: In that case the contact is open as long as the cell is not covered.
It closes as soon as the cell is covered. The safety edge, cell and door open button contacts are wired in parallel.
• Cell NF: It is the contrary of cell NO. Safety edge, cell, and door reopening button are to be wired in
series.
Note: it is imperative that the safety edge contacts, cell, and door open button are all of the same type NO or NF.
3.2.22 Door close timer
When the door is open, three timers are coming into play:
• Adjustable timer "door remains open" (Cf. 4.0.4 and 4.0.4.3).
Date : 13/09/2002
• Dwell timer, adjustable from 1 to 10s that starts as soon as the door is open and as a call is
registered.
• Door close button that reduces the dwell timer to 1 second.
As soon as one of these three timers is reached, the door closes.
Note: In the case of reopening for whatever reason (call, photocell, etc.) the timers are restarted.
3.2.23 Fireman’s operation
Selected in respect with the installation
3.2.24 Fireman's mode with in-car adjustable spanner (pre-set MEA "no")
This question only appears if you entered "yes" to the §3.2.20.

By answering "yes", activate the PCA input with a key to authorise a car call. The "lift attendant" function is cancelled.
Note: By entering "no", Sharp computer parameterises by default the fireman'

s floor at the lowest floor.
3.2.25 Relevelling
• One sensor relevelling (doors open or closed)

This parameter is particularly useful with electric lifts to obtain an accurate floor level.
Relevelling operates while doors are open or closed.
The device is activated as soon as one of the two displacement sensors detects that the lift car is not exactly at floor level
after a second (Cf. 3.2.13 Fig 3.4), i.e. as soon as one of the two sensors is covered.
Attention: the use of this parameter is not advised for hydraulic lifts due to the possibility of pressure loss causing the
pump to function continuously.
Fig.3.6 - One sensor relevelling
• Two sensor relevelling (doors open or closed)

Contrary to the previous parameter this parameter is to be used with hydraulic lifts for relevelling. Operation is identical to
the above parameter with door open or closed but both displacement sensors are to be covered before starting the
relevelling. This operation stops as soon as displacement sensors are uncovered.
Note : It is recommended to use a distance between upper and lower displacement sensors of no more than 20mm
(TMS03).
Date : 13/09/2002
Fig. 3.7. - Two sensors relevelling
• One sensor doors open two sensors doors closed one sensor relevelling.
The use of this parameter makes the relevelling by one sensor possible, with the landing door open (car light on) and by
two sensors with landing door closed and car light off.
Note: Whatever the option chosen for revelling with doors open (compulsory on hydraulic lifts), it is necessary to shunt the
door safety circuits under control of contacts in conformity with the current standards in force (see En81 14.1.2.2, 14.1.2.3).
To make this possible we should use:

• either a floor levelling switch,
• or a device to provide a supplementary pulse to the controller, (e.g. an electromagnetic induction
switch ).
This parameter can be twined with the pre door opening so only one door safety circuit shunting device is necessary.
3.2.26 Resetting ( pre-set MEA: lowest floor )
Chosen in accordance with the installation
3.2.27 Slow speed fault ( pre-set MEA 7s for electric lifts, 14s for hydraulic lifts )
If a problem happened during the slow speed operation of the lift the motor stops after the selected time interval, (as if it
was at floor level) to avoid a useless overheating. All calls are erased, (car and landing calls with simplex).
The lift is ready to restart on the next call.
This function does not work when the lift is resetting and the timed interval defaults automatically to 14seconds when the
interfloor at slow speed option has been selected (only car calls are erased with Multiplex system).
3.2.28 Heat probe sensors
When TH1/TH2 input is cut or that the motor thermistor detects an overheating.
• either the lift continue until the very next floor
• or the lift stops immediately
In both cases the lift restarts when normal conditions are restored.
3.2.29 Multiplex
By answering "yes” to this parameter allows you to enter the multiplex menu (see 5).
Date : 13/09/2002
3.2.30 Flashing indicators
Respond according to the installation.

There are flashing indicators while moving then fixed by waiting at floor level, and lighted off after after the "car priority"
timer has finished ( see 4.04 and 4.0.4.2 ).
3.2.31 Heavy blocking floors
Upper heavy traffic floor: This parameter is very useful if a heavy upward blocking is required. As soon as the PMO input
is activated, the lift car goes down to the floor defined by this parameter without stopping for any down calls. This function
can be twined with a time clock or key switch. If this parameter is not required press the key without entering a
number.
Lower heavy traffic floor: This parameter, PDE is identical to the above but is used in the case of a heavy downward
blocking.
3.2.32 Position indicator
Types of data transmitted by the D01 output:
A) SODIMAS / DMG: DM and DS type indicators

B) SORETEX / THYSSEN: Indicators without this type of protocol:
• AUTINOR ID 30 and ID 50
• AUTINOR SP 201A and P200A
• THYSSEN step module SX96B and SX120A
3.2.33 Anti nuisance function (pre-set MEA "no")
This parameter permits all the dispatch calls to be erased if a given number of stops are carried out without the photocell
being cut in the case of automatic car and landing doors or without the landing door being opened in all other cases.
By answering “yes”, answer the question “number of stops to erase all the calls”.
3.2.34 Russian specification (pre-set MEA "no")
Answer “yes” to this parameter allows to access to menu where are gathered all the special requirements for the Russian
controllers. Once the menu is open, choose among the following options shown by the Sharp:
• KLM board: if you enter "yes" to this question it shows that the KLM board is being
parameterised.
• Dispatcher: if you enter “yes” to this parameter it cancels the relevelling function of the ISO
relay. The PDE input becomes “PAIS information” instead of the ascent/decent contact. When
the PDE input is activated for more than 3 minutes or the extremities of the security circuit are cut
(input SE6) for more than 3 minutes the ISO relay is activated and a fault is recorded
(Cf. 4.3.3/di).
• Traction motor double journey: If you wish to modify the value of the double journey answer
“yes” to the following and indicate the value of the time interval from 4 to 20 seconds. If the
answer is “no” the value of the time interval is fixed at 20 seconds as required by the reference
EN81 10.6.2.2.
3.2.35 On inspection, stop on AGB and AGH contacts (pre-set M.E.A "yes")
By answering "no" to this question, it allows not being stopped in the shaft by AGB and AGH contacts.
If you enter "yes", the inspection mode will be interrupted as soon as the lift car reaches the AGB or AGH contacts.
This option allows high speed lifts an easier access to the landing door top floor, situated over the AGH contact. In that
case end terminal switches for inspection mode are compulsory.
Date : 13/09/2002
3.2.36 Out of Service function (parameter M.E.A. "no")
This function allows the lift car stationary at a predetermined floor (Cf. 4.2.1.).
3.2.37 Start agreement (parameter M.E.A. "no")
Cf. 4.2.1
3.2.38 Ascensore Pompieri
(parametro accessibile solo con il programmatore esterno MEAF110). Questo paramettro permette di indicare quale
cabina deve servire alla funzione Pompieri in conformità alla norma CEN81-72. Prima però si dovrà programmare il
piano Pompieri in cabina (entrata della scheda =PCA) (cfr. 3.2.20 e 3.2.21).
Secondo la norma in vigore sono possibili tre opzioni:
- EN81-72 (Francese): 2 entrate PMO e EL3 sono utilizzate per collegare il pulsante di apertura porte A e B.
- Inglese / Russa : identiche alla EN81-72 con specificità proprie a
ciascuno di questi paesi.

4.1.4.1 F.C (End of limit switch for hydraulic lifts)

Recording of the OLE input of the card. This parameter is set to 1 when the OLE input is activated, it is necessary to
change its value to 0 to cancel the fault recorded.
Attention: in this case, check that the OLE contact is not made (Cf. 4.3.3 0F)
4.1.4.2 P.C (Car Priority)

Adjustable from 2 to 30 seconds
This timer adjusts the time of waiting, when lift car is stationary before going to any landing calls registered. For
automatics doors it starts from the moment the door (Cf. 3.2.12) open contacts are made, and if the safety edge photocell
and door open button have not been activated, when using automatic car and landing entrances. For all other types of door
the timer starts from the moment the landing door is closed (sécu. 4 made).
4.1.4.3 S.P (Parking doors open)

This timer regulates the period of time which the lift is parked with its doors open.
It starts when the door reaches the fully open position. It can be covered by the closing timer or by pressing the door close
button (Cf. 3.2.18).
4.1.4.4 rA (Automatic return to zone)

Adjustable between 2 and 60 minutes
This timer regulates the period of time the car is waiting before returning automatically to the programmed floor (Cf.
3.2.10). It starts from the moment when the lift stops without any calls to respond and is not in any mode prohibiting
automatic return such as Fireman’s or Attendant control.
All car / landing calls cause this timer to be reset.
4.1.4.5 dP (Locking fault)

This timer regulates the period of time after which a ‘locking fault’ is activated (Cf. 4.3.3/20 to 43).
It can only be activated if there is a call registered and:
with automatic doors, when the doors have begun to close (Cf. 3.2.12).
for all other types of doors, when the relay RGV is energised. (Cf. 3.2.12).
4.1.4.6 t.A (door A closing / opening timer)

This timer adjusts the door A closing / opening, in case there is no end terminal switches.
4.1.4.7 t.b ( door B closing / opening timer)

Same as t.A but for door B.
4.1.4.8 t.c (electrocam delay when "on")

Adjustable from 0 to 9,9 seconds
This timer adjusts the delay when the cam is on (the cam contactor is wired on SC02 output) as soon as a RGV or RPV
order is registered and that the Secu. 4 is activated.
Note: by relevelling, the cam output is not driven.
4.1.4.9 t.r (electrocam delay when "off")

This timer adjusts the delay when the cam is "off". As soon as RGV and RPV are "off", this timer starts. The cam output
is maintained under tension as long as the end of the timer is not reached.
Date : 13/09/2002
4.1.4.10 t.o (Doors A and B opening delay)

This timer adjusts the doors A and B opening delay.
Provide for it in order to avoid any problem by using the cam with automatic doors.
4.1.4.11 n. (first floor where the door is considered as combined)

Adjustable from the lowest floor “0” to the highest floor. As not to program different floors after the highest floor, press
key + and then - - appears.
Type of use : lift for 5 floors ; 1 entrance with manual doors from the 1st to the 4th floor and then a combined door at the
ground floor. The running of the door is different as per the floor. The NG12 card is parameterised “manual door” and
value “0” is assigned to n1.
4.1.4.12 n. (same that 4.1.4.11)

Identical to n1 but for a second floor.
4.1.4.13 r.d (resetting lift delay, time basis 15 seconds)

Adjustable from 0 to 99 what means 0 to 1 485 seconds.
Type of use: lifts on emergency power unit. By restoring the power, rd avoid the lifts to start simultaneously.
4.1.4.14 F.o (closing on order)

Adjustable from 0 to 30 seconds.
This timer was adjustable with the programming tool. Now the timer gets the priority : as soon as a direction is registered,
the door closes as per timers.
4.1.4.15 rE (Inspection GV)

With this parameter set at 1 the travel using the car top control in inspection will be at full speed, if the parameter is set to 0
the displacements will be at slow speed.
4.1.4.16 P.A (entrance A under power)

If the parameter is set at 1, the door motor of entrance A will remain powered during the travel of the lift. If the it is set at 0
the door motor will not be powered.
4.1.4.17 P.B (entrance B under power)

Identical to the above parameter but applies to entrance B
4.1.4.18 C1,C2,C3,C4 (counter)

These parameters act as internal counters who can used by the input EL2. At each pulse on EL2 the counter increments one
unit. The reading of the value contained in each counter is by the display of one by one of the four parameters C1 to C4
Example: to count the number of start carried out it is necessary to wire as follows:
GV via terminal EL2

via terminal REF
NG12 card
The value shown by the counter after ten thousand five hundred and twenty two starts would be:

4.2 OPERATION
4.2.1 Resetting
When powered up, the lift goes to resetting to a parameterised top floor level whether it is not already at one top floor level
(Cf. 3.2.2.3).
But if it is already at a top floor level (AGH or AGB activated), it goes systematically to the opposite top floor.
During the resetting, the car/landing display shows any floor level.
The NG12 card indicator shows .

Fig 4.6
Then the lift travels at full speed just to the terminal-slowing switch, at the other end of the shaft, at which point it switches
to slow speed.
Fig 4.7
Finally having passed the slowing vane at the terminal floor, the lift rests at floor level with its (Cf. 3.2.9) doors
closed.
Fig 4.8
Note: If the lift overtravels at the terminal floor, check that the number of vanes with respect to the slowing parameter (see
3.2.9).
Check the condenser C1 used to filter the 24V supply to the armoire.
Date : 13/09/2002
4.2.2 Pulsing
4.2.2.1 Vanes
Vanes are the components, which cause the displacement sensors to pulse the controller. The displacement sensors and the
vanes can be optical or electro-magnetically operated devices, this in no way effects the controller operation. Whatever the
installation, there must be four vanes between each floor arranged as shown here.
Fig. 4.9
At the terminal floors to have a door-opening zone which conforms to the requirements of the standard En81, and put
above and below floor level.
Fig 4.10 Vane position after floor
The number of vanes that are required in the whole shaft can be calculated by the formula:
Nv =[(4 x Number of floors) - 2]
Attention: The length of the vanes and the distance between two vanes is very important.
The pulsing of the selector by the displacement sensors will not function properly if the minimum distance between each
consecutive vane does not conform to the formula:
Date : 13/09/2002
Without car serial link With car serial link
Simplex (Vn x 6) + inter-cells = C (Vn x 7) + inter-cells = C
Duplex (Vn x 7) + inter-cells = C (Vn x 8) + inter-cells = C
Vn = the velocity of the lift car in m/s.

Inter-cells = the distance between the upper and lower
cells of the displacement sensor in cm
(TMS02 = 4cm; MS03 = 2cm).
C = The minimum distance between vanes in cm
Example: A lift 1.6 m/s using a TMS03 without serial link with the car:
(Vn x 6) + inter-cells = (1.6 x 6) + 2 = 11,6cm
Fig 4.11 Example
4.2.2.2 Position indicator car or landing

In all cases, whatever the slowing vane position, the floors number shown by the position indicator changes when the car
meets the second vane.
Fig 4.12
Date : 13/09/2002
4.2.2.3 Card position indicator

In all cases the floor shown changes when the car meets the last vane.
Fig 4.13
The display is fixed but can be alternated with the operation being executed (see 4.2)
4.3 INDICATION OF OPERATIONS

The display of the operations is shown flashing by the indicator and alternates with the current floor number it is not
necessary to push any button.
4.3.1 Operations
Operations are discussed in order of priority. So for example the function can not be overridden by the function,
but the reverse is possible.
Start authorisation
This function shall be parameterised through the Sharp computer. This is allowed to move only when the PMO input is
activated.
This operation can be used too in case of starting on power unit.
The "heavy traffic" function is inactive by going up.
Inspection
If the lift car top control station has been switched to inspection, the REV contact is or has been opened and no calls
registering is possible.
In that mode the lift moves:
- upwards when the REM contact is closed,
- downwards when the RED contact is closed.
It stops at the moment:

- REM and RED are made,
- terminal slowing switch AGB is activated and RED is made,
- the terminal slowing switch AGH is activated and REM is made.
If the CEA contact for entrance A or CEB for entrance B is closed the corresponding doors open during the period the
contacts are closed (door timers do not operate).
Date : 13/09/2002
If the contact BFR is closed the doors close while the contact remains closed. In any case if REM or RED are closed the
doors close immediately. The lift car moves at the speed selected by the parameter (Cf. 4.0.4.6).
• In a simplex system: if the lift is switched from inspection to normal operation (REV input is
activated), push a landing or car call buttons to restart.
• The lift goes also to resetting (cf. 4.1.1).
• In a duplex system: the lift departs to reset as soon as REV contact is made.
Note: If the panel control is on "serial link" with the car (cf 1.2.4.), "REV", "REM" and "RED" inputs are on
the TOC card.
By safety measures, "REV" input is considered as not made if the communication is cut between the TOC card and the
NG12 card (green led on the TOC card lights off, so the NG12 card lays out .
Solution:
• In case of a simplex installation, check:
the connection of the I422 card on the NG12 card
the connection of the 4 serial link wires between the TOC card and the I422 card, the
ground braid of the screened wire (NG12 controller'
s side only).
• In case of a duplex installation, check:

the connection of the COM_D card on the NG12 card,
the connection of the 4 serial link wires between the TOC card and the COM_D card, the
ground braid of the screened wire (NG12 controller' s side only).
Safety edge, photocell, entrance B
The contact CEB is activated, the doors reopen and rest open until the contact is activated.
: Safety edge, photocell, entrance A
The operation is identical except it is for contact CEA and entrance A.
Reset
Cf. 4.1.1
Fireman’s operation
The POM contact NO is closed, by the operation of the fireman’s switch, there are two things that can happen:
• If the lift is moving: all calls assigned are erased, and the lift stops at the first possible floor. The
doors remain closed and the lift departs for the evacuation floor programmed (see 3.2.21). When
at the evacuation floor the doors rest in the open position, the card indicator shows fireman’s
mode.
• Then if a car call is made, only a car call, the doors close, the lift departs for the floor where it
stops leaving its doors open.
Note: If the safety edge, or photocell contacts operate when the door closes the car call is erased
and has to be registered again.
• If the lift is already at a floor: the operation is exactly the same; the doors close immediately, the
safety edge and photocell remain non operational until the evacuation level is reached.
Date : 13/09/2002
Note: To return to normal from Fireman’s operation it is necessary for the lift to be returned to
the evacuation floor otherwise the lift remains in Fireman’s mode.
Attendant control
This function cannot be put into operation if the lift is not stationary at floor level.
At stop, as soon as the PCA contact is closed all calls are erased. The car door opens and remains open.
As soon as a car call is made (unique call), door close and lift goes at the designated floor or remains door open.
Note: If the safety edge or photocells are activated during the door closing, the call is erased and has to be
registered again.
: Full load
COM input is activated.

The lift responds only to dispatch calls made in the car. It does not answer landing calls (this mode can only be activated if
there are dispatch calls registered).
: Out of service
This function should be parameterised with the Sharp computer by indicating the floor the car should park. If the PDE
input is made the lift car stops at the next floor and goes to the "out of service" programmed floor.
There is only a landing call at the floor the car is waiting or an action on the cell input that makes the door reopening
possible.
Going down closes the "heavy traffic" function.
Operation to bring the car lift alongside the quay from the Out of Service function.
This operation is useful when you adjust the car landing with a mobile quay that is over the landing level. It permits the
car to go up by activating the REM input or to go down by activating the RED input without executing the inspection
mode.
Once the PDE input is activated, the lift stops at the "out of service" programmed floor.
An action on REM or RED makes the lift car move on slow speed (slow speed fault is inhibited).
Schematic:
In order to allow this operation door open, a parity control of the car position is compulsory (maxi. 1,65m over the level).
Date : 13/09/2002
4.4 FAULTS
Each time a fault occurs it is recorded, even after a cut in the mains power supply. There are actually 38 different types of
faults. These can be registered several times up to a total of 254 faults thereby giving a historical record over several
breakdowns.
4.4.1 Displaying
It is necessary to press the DEF button below the indicator to make the fault flashing (Cf. 1.2.1./10 and 4.0).
The faults are displayed one by one starting with the last or presently occurring to the first recorded. The return to the floor
number display is automatic.
Example: Three consecutive cuts in the main power, door close timer fault, locking fault gives the following display
4.4.2 Erasing
To clear the fault recorder press both the above buttons DEF and PRG simultaneously.
If after this a fault is still shown it is a fault presently occurring.
4.4.3 Fault analysis and rectification
Resetting
This fault is recorded each time the lift resets, this could be due to minute breaks in the power supply or returning from
‘Test’ control to ‘normal’ after using the inspection control and fault 1h, 1b, 9A, Ad.
Power contacts have not opened
In conformity with the standards in force, it is necessary to verify that the power supply contacts for the lift motor have not
welded together or are blocked in the closed position, before any other flight.
To comply with this requirement a series of contacts NC are linked to the power contacts and wired to the input CCO.
If one of these contacts remains open when stop, the "02" default is recorded.
The lift restarts, as the contact is no longer blocked.
Slow speed too long
Cf. 3.2.24.
Checking the terminal-slowing switch, the slowing vanes distance, and the slowing parameter programmed, repairs this.
Overload
This fault occurs only when lift is stationary at floor level.

The “SUR” contact is closed and is to be reopened for the lift to move. Doors are running normally.
Direction fault
This fault can only occur during the resetting function. There are three possible causes:
Date : 13/09/2002
• The cells of the displacement sensors in effect are mounted upside-down with respect to the lift’s
movement when going up FAI plusses first instead of FAS, when going down FAS plusses first
instead of FAI.
Inverting the sensors repairs this.
• The terminal slowing switches, have been wired upside down with respect to the shaft: when going
up it is AGB that acts instead of AGH and when going down AGH acts instead of AGB.
This is repaired by switching round AGB and AGH inputs.
This fault ‘locks’ the system, cut then restore the mains power supply.
• The vanes are too short or too close together.
Using bigger vanes, increasing the distance between vanes, or reducing the distance between the displacement sensors
FAS and FAI (cf. 4.1.2.1) can repair this.
Short circuit to earth on the 24V card
This fault is recorded when one of the terminals ‘REF’, ‘D01’, ‘V+’, ‘VOC’, ‘TH1’, ‘TH2’, ‘24dc’ are or have been
shorted to earth. The lift is only stopped if the fault persist for more than 15 seconds. The lift can be reinstated once the
short circuit has been removed.
Short circuit on D01
This fault is memorised if the car or landing position indicator display output is or has been connected to the REF terminal.
In this case the information transmitted to the display is stopped and can only return after the mains power supply has been
cut and then restored. This fault allows the corresponding output to be protected.
Note: The display on the position indicator shall be uncertain.
Fire detection
If the U36 parameter has been programmed, this fault is recorded when a fire detection input is cut. Each fire detection
inputs cut is individually recorded. For the operation (see 3.2.4)
Hydraulic fault
To suit to the standards requirements regarding hydraulic lifts, a relay FC, with contacts, which can be manually opened, is
powered when the ram reaches the limit of its travel. The relay closing activates the input “OLE” and the fault is recorded.
All the car and landing calls are erased. When the lift car is lowered from the full extension position the only function
which still operate are reset, in the downwards direction, relevelling, door open and close.
The fault is repaired by pressing on the relay arm, while the lift is being lowered, until the relay FC is disarmed (see 4.0.4
and 4.0.4.1).
Electronic memory fault
The memory is defective or has no parameters entered (Cf. III).
The fault is repaired by replacing or reprogramming the memory (Cf. 1.2.1/14), then cut and restore electrical power, to
reinstate the lift.
Date : 13/09/2002
Short circuit at output VOC or at an indicator card input
The "VOC" output protects itself from overload of short circuit to earth (light on earth) by neutralising all the 24 outputs
indicators and registering the "OL" fault. To reinstate the « lift in use » indicators cut then restore the electrical power, after
curing the problem.
Heat probe fault
This fault is recorded when the TH1 and TH2 inputs are cut.
By hydraulic lifts, when the heat probe is activated, the car can move to the down direction.
Note:
If the lift is equipped with a thermistor, shunt the terminals « TH1 » and « TH2 » then erase the fault (see
4.3.2),
If the fault remains the inputs TH1 and TH2 on the card are defective,
If not check the thermistors
When the inputs TH1 and TH2 have returned to normal the lift restart.
CCO input fault
his fault appears if the CCO input contact remains closed during the travel of the car.
Safety circuit broken while lift is remaining (active after 3 seconds)
Safety circuit broken while lift moving
This fault is recorded when there is a break in the security circuit before terminal Secu. 3.
The fault is repaired by checking all the contacts (stop buttons, safety gear, etc.). The lift can be reinstated when the break
is reconnected.
Note: Any car and landing call are erased.
Safety circuit broken while lift moving (Sécu 4)

Same fault as 13 but for the door car lift contact shunt, in the case of automatic doors, or for the retiring cam for lift with
manual landing doors.
(Secu. 4 is effective between the terminals 3 and 4).
Drop in the 24V power supply while the car lift if moving
The voltage at the power supply input of the card is monitored permanently.
If it drops below 18V during operation this fault is recorded.
This fault is repaired by checking the power supply network (micro power cuts) 24Vdc. Do not forget the associated
capacitor.
Date : 13/09/2002
Note: when the voltage returns above the 18V threshold, the lift goes to reset.
Drop in the 24V power supply

Identical to the above but acts when the lift has stopped
Fault "communication with the TOC card"
This fault can only appear if the NG12 card has a bad communication with the TOC card during more than 2 seconds or
that the TOC card indicates to the NG12 card that the serial link is perturbed.
Faults reading impossible
The Eeprom (Cf. 1-2.1/14) is defective or missing.
Locking fault
This fault is recorded if a call is registered and the locking procedure is not completed (Sécu. 6 is activated) at the end of
the programmed timed interval (Cf. 4.0.4.5).
To find the floor where the locking fault has occurred subtracts 20 from the number shown.
Example: If 31 is shown that gives 31-20 = 11 the fault is at the eleventh floor, as shown by the controller card display.
• With automatic doors, they open again then close after the timed interval if the door close button
is pressed (see 3.2.19).
• With manual landing doors the retiring cam is "off" then at the end of the timed interval it is
"instructed" to retract again (see 3.2.17).
For the two types of entrances, after the third attempt to close and lock the doors, all landing or car calls assigned are
erased. The next landing or car call made causes the lift to renew its attempt to close and lock the doors.
To repair the fault: check lock contacts, wiring to the lock, and if there is any obstruction to the door closing properly.
Note: If the fault occurs in when the lift is resetting at the fifth attempt the reset is abandoned. It is then necessary to cut
then restore the electrical power
Safety circuit broken while operation (Sécu 6)
An identical fault as 13 but for contacts. The break in the safety circuit is effective between terminals 4 and 6. To find the
floor where the locking fault has occurred subtract 50 from the number shown.
Example: If 55 is shown that gives 55-50 = 5 the fault is at the fifth floor, as counted by the controller card display.
Double Journey fault when traction motor is raising the lift car
This fault recorded when one of the cells of the displacement sensor does not pulse within 20 seconds of the other.
To repair the fault: check the contacts, brake, the motor supply, the filter capacitor C1for the 24V supply for the controller
and the interface relays on the card. The fault causes the lift to stop: cut then restore the current to reinstate the lift.
To test the Double journey protection is working, disconnect the RGV output and make a call.
Double Journey fault when traction motor is lowering the lift car
Date : 13/09/2002
Identical to 7h above but occurs when traction motor is lowering the lift car.
Lower terminal slowing limit switch remains open
The AGB contact have remained open when the lift car has arrived at the top of the lift shaft or when the lift car can not
move downward due to a landing or car call registered.
To repair the fault: check the state of the AGB contacts.

Note: The lift car restart as soon as the AGB contact is no longer activated.
Upper terminal slowing limit switch remains open
It is the same principle as 9b but for AGH
Simultaneous terminal limits
The two sets of contacts (AGH and AGB) are broken at the same time, when one of the contact sets return to the correct
state the lift resets itself in the corresponding direction.
To repair the fault: check the state of the contacts, the lower terminal box as well as their connection.
Door open timing fault entrance A
See 3.2.16
Check:
- The door open limit switch and its connections,
- The power supply to the door motor,
- The door open contact,
- The ROA relay on the card.
Door close timing fault entrance A
Identical to AO but during the closing of the door
Record of the use of the stop button
See the corresponding parameter 3.3.12bis
Note: by resetting, this fault recording is cancelled.
Door open timing fault entrance B
Identical to A0 but for entrance B
Door close timing fault entrance B
Identical to AF but for entrance B
Selector “ out of step ”
When the car stops exactly at floor level, the dot on the position indicator lights to show it is precisely at the floor (see
4.1.1).
Date : 13/09/2002
In normal operation, the two leds FAI and FAS are illuminated (see 1.2.1.5). If the dot, which indicates the car is exactly at
floor level is illuminated whereas one of the two leds is "off" an “ out of step ” selection fault is recorded. The lift keeps on
moving anyway.
Note: A single fault of this type is recorded between two mains power supply failures.
Selection out of step
If the controller is equipped with a Tobia system after a mains power failure the EL3 input of the NG12 is activated and the
fault recorded (see Tobia documentation).
Anti nuisance
See corresponding parameter 3.2.30
Overshooting door zone
This fault is recorded if the lift car overshoots the door zone five consecutive times.
All the calls registered are erased and the lift departs to reset.
Dispatch
See corresponding parameter 3.2.31
The lift is running on inspection. This code is memorised on the Eeprom.
After three unsuccessful attempts, this fault is memorised and the request of relevelling is cancelled until the next
travel.
This is due to the door zone shunting system, which do not succeed in establishing the security inputs SE4 and SE6 on the
card.
To repair this fault: check that the nivelator, the impulsor and the parity control circuit are good running.
4.3.4 Faults not shown by the indicator.
4.3.4.1 The equipment receives erroneous calls

In a collective system, if the indicator common is disconnected, when a car or landing call is made the return can pass by
the indicators at other floors producing false calls. Reconnecting the common line repairs this.
Date : 13/09/2002
5 MULTIPLEX
In this chapter we shall treat only the information concerning the management of landing calls in a duplex system. For the
operation of single controllers, please refer to the previous chapters.
5.1 PRINCIPLE
The duplex is constructed by linking two standard NG12 controllers.
One of the controllers is programmed as the ‘Master’ the other as the ‘Slave’ using the Sharp PCE500.
The landing push button are wired in parallel to both controllers.
If a fire detection system is provided the contacts are also wired in parallel with both controllers, therefore if one lift breaks
down the other can continue to operate as a simplex system.

5.2 INSTALLATION
5.2.1 Connection of NG12 controllers
As the method of connection is standard for the basic controller (see 2.1)
5.2.2 Connection between two NG12 controllers
Installing two I422 interfaces carries out the communication between the two controllers or two COM_D cards connected
to the NG12 cards by screened cable.
Attention: When connecting the wires respect the polarity indicated on the interface connect the screening of the cable to
earth.

5.3 PROGRAMMING THE PARAMETERS
5.3.1 Master controller
Connect the sharp to the RS232 socket of the controller chosen as the “Master” controller and answer the following
questions.
5.3.1.1 Multiplex
This parameter is used to define the duplex mode, answer “yes”.
5.3.1.2 Master or Slave

s status, answer "Master" or "Slave".
This parameter is used to define the controller'
5.3.1.3 Return to zone or homing, (pre-set MEA “yes”)

When a lift(s) is at a floor and has no call assigned, providing this is not due to a breakdown, it is possible either to:
• return the lift to a given floor (answer = “yes”)

or
• leave the lift in place to attend a favourable landing call answer (answer = “no”)
5.3.1.4 First lift return to zone, (pre-set MEA: "main floor")

This parameter appears if the answer to the previous parameter was “yes”.
The first lift without any calls assigned returns to the floor programmed, after the programmed time interval.
If during this function the lift is sufficiently close to respond to a new call, it does, cancelling the return to zone. However if
the lift arrives at the homing floor without being intercepted, it rests without opening its doors until it receives a further
instruction or call.
5.3.1.5 Second lift return to zone,(pre-set MEA not activated)

This function is identical to the previous function but acts on the second lift.
If the second homing floor does not exist press the « RETURN » key without entering a floor. The first free lift parks at the
homing floor the second remains at the floor where it last stopped.
5.3.1.6 Return to zone
5.3.1.6.1 All lifts are stationary (pre-set by MEA: No)

In this case all the return to zone timer (see 5.3.1.7) only starts when all the lifts are unoccupied.
When this occurs after the timed interval all the lifts return to zone.
5.3.1.6.2 One lift stationary (pre-set by MEA: «yes»)
In this case the timed interval is broken into equal parts (see 5.3.1.7) for each lift car. The timer starts when the first lift car
becomes unoccupied, the lifts then depart one after the other to their respective homing floors at the end of their individual
time interval (see 5.3.1.4 or 5.3.1.5).
5.3.1.7 Return to zone timer (pre-set MEA: 1 min)

This timed interval is adjustable from 1 to 60 minutes or seconds.
It starts when the conditions described in 5.3.1.3 occur, i.e. as lift is direction free and available.
5.3.1.8 Return to authorised zone after automatic return (pre-set MEA: "no")
This option appears only when an automatic return is programmed (Cf. 3.2.10). If the answer is "no", after a lift car
automatic return, this latter is no longer allowed to return to a zoning floor if it is at the automatic return floor.
Date : 13/09/2002
5.3.2 Slave controller
5.3.2.1 Multiplex ?
This parameter is used to define the duplex mode , answer “yes”.
5.3.2.2 Master or Slave ?

This parameter is used to define the controllers status , answer “Slave”.
5.3.2.3 Type « return » for all questions concerning zoning
5.3.2.4 After programming SHARP

After programming do not for get to remove the sharp from the RS232 socket and replace the I422 or COM -D interface,
the cut the power supply so the parameters are registered.
5.4 OPERATION
5.4.1 Indicator
When the duplex is functioning correctly the indicator on the two NG12 cards show the floor without flashing., if not they
show the following flashing errors:
CA: No communication between the controllers
Check:
-if the communication interfaces are correctly in place
-if the two interfaces are correctly connected
h: Incoherence of parameters between the two controllers
The following three parameters must be identical in both controllers:

The number of floors
Type of control system
U36 standard
Check these 3 parameters.
In: The unavailability of a controller
A lift is unavailable when it can no longer respond to a landing call in the required time.
During the period of unavailability the controller transmit the calls initially assigned to that lift to another lift best disposed
to respond.
Date : 13/09/2002
Condition which causing the lift to be unavailable:
• Faults: 02, 04, 06, 7d, 7h, 08, 9A,9d,9h,0F, 0H, 0t, bA,0°
• Functions: 0-, 17, CC, 0P, 0r
• Sécu 3 cut
• After the third attempt to lock the door, (faults 20 to 43) or after the door open/close time is
exceeded (faults bO, bF, A0, AF) the lift is unavailable for 1 minute. A new cycle is also starting
again.
• If the safety edge, photocell, or door open contacts are opened the lift is unavailable for the
following 20 seconds. In the case of manual doors if the door can stays open for more than 20
seconds the lift becomes unavailable.
• The lift becomes available when the photocell or safety edge contacts open or the manual door
closes again closes.
• If the lift can not move after a dispatch call because one of the terminal limit switches AGB or
AGH remains closed, then the lift is unavailable for 1 mn.
• While the lift is moving to a upper or lower heavy traffic, the lift car is unavailable (Cf. 3.2.2.8.)
NOTA: the lift becomes available again as soon as the unavailability conditions disappear.
5.4.2 The COM_D card led indicators
The three leds at the front of the COM_D card show the state of the communication between the COM_D card and the car
(led CAB), the other COM_D (led COM_D) and the NG12 card (led NG12).
• The communication is correct if the led flashes slowly (500ms)

• The communication is not correct if the led flashes rapidly (100ms)
• If the NG12 led flashes rapidly check:
If the RS232 plug is correctly connected to the NG12 card (Cf. 1.2.4.4./7 and 5.2.2.2)
If the NG12 parameters are correctly programmed and the controller is receiving power
from the power supply.
• If the COM_D led flashes rapidly check
If the cable between the two connectors of the two COM_D cards is correctly connected
(see 5.2.2.2).
If the other COM_D card is receiving power from the power supply
• If the CAB led flashes rapidly check
The connection between the COM_D and TOC card (see 5.2.2.2)
If the TOC card is receiving power from the power supply
5.4.3 The COM_X card led indicators
See schematic p. 19.
The three leds at the front of the COM_X card show the state of the communication between the COM_X card and the car
(TOC card), the other COM_X and the NG12 card.
• The communication is correct if the led flashes slowly (500ms)
• The communication is not correct if the led flashes rapidly (100ms)
• If the ‘NG12’ led 7 flashes rapidly, check:
If the RS232 plug is correctly connected to the NG12 card (see 1.2.4 and 5.2.2)
If the NG12 parameters are correctly programmed and the controller is receiving power
from the power supply.
• If the ‘TOC’ led 8 flashes rapidly, check:
If the COM_X card is correctly connected to the TOC card (see 5.2.2)
If the TOC card is power supplied
• If the ‘COM_X’ led 9 flashes rapidly, check:

Date : 13/09/2002
If the cable between the two connectors of the two COM_X cards is correctly connected
(see 5.2.2)
If the other COM_X card is receiving power from the power supply
5.4.4 The led indicators of I422 card
• The two leds (red and green) indicate the state of the communication of the serial link RS422.
• If the red led flashes, it indicates that the I422 card is receiving data from the exterior.
• If the green led flashes, it indicates that the I422 card is transmitting data to the exterior.
• If the green led does not flash, check:
The RS232 plug is right connected to the NG12 card (see 1.2.1.4/4 and 5.2.2.1.)
The NG12 is right adjusted (parameters) and power supplied.
• If the red led does not flash, check:
The RS232 plug is right connected to the NG12 card ( see 1.2.1.4/7 and 5.2.2.1)
The RX+ and RX- wires are right connected (see 5.2.2.1).
5.5 Assigning of calls

Whatever is the control system, a lift takes landing calls only if it is available.
If the lift car is stationary at floor level, with no calls assigned, the dispatcher waits until the "car priority" timer has
finished before assigning another call.
In all cases a lift car with a call assigned keeps on travelling in the same direction as this call until it has deserved all the
corresponding calls.
5.5.1 Lift car(s) at the same level as the call
• A single lift stationary at floor level with no call assigned, available, car priority finished: all the
calls at this floor are assigned to this lift.
• A single lift with calls assigned, available: only calls, which are in the same direction as the calls
already assigned to this lift, are served.
• Two lifts without calls assigned, available, car priority finished: calls are assigned to the first lift
car arrived.
Date : 13/09/2002
5.5.2 Lift cars at different levels to the call
• A lift car stationary at a floor is available to respond to all call in the upward and downward
direction
• A lift car moving is available for all calls in the same direction
• The two lift cars have no calls assigned and are at different floors
Fig. 5.4
Glossary: Calls in the downward direction responded to by the car.

Calls in the upward direction responded to by the car.
Calls in the downward direction responded to by the car application
of the blocking formula (see 5.5.8).
Calls in the upward direction as responded to by the car application
of the blocking formula (see cf.: 5.5.8).
5.5.3 Car at the same floor no calls assigned
Fig 5.5
The first call shall be assigned to the car, which came to rest first.
Date : 13/09/2002
5.5.4 A car moves away from the other with no calls assigned
Fig 5.6
The car 1 responds to the up calls from its starting floor.

The car 2 responds to all the downward calls and the upward calls below car 1.
If the number of calls assigned to the car 1 is greater than the result of the blocking formula (see 5.5.8), then car 2 answers
the calls above car 1 too.
5.5.5 A car (2) rejoins a car (1) with no calls registered
Fig. 5.7
The car (2) answers all the up calls from its starting floor up to car (1). The car (1) answers all the down calls. It answers
the up calls below car (2) if it is the closest and according to the blocking formula (Cf. 5.5.8.).
5.5.6 The two cars meet
Fig. 5.8
The car (1) serves all the down calls.

The car (2) serves all the up calls.
Date : 13/09/2002
5.5.7 The two cars are moving in the same direction
Fig. 5.9
The car 2 serves all the up calls starting from its floor.
The car 1 serves all the down calls just up to car 2 and eventually above if the car 2 is overloaded according to the blocking
formula (see.5.5.8.).
5.5.8 Blocking formula
• The number of calls that are in the same direction as car 2 and from which car 1 is to be sent is
calculated in the following manner:
Na = [ (Number of floors between cars)/3] +2
Example: car 1 is parked at the ground floor. Car 2 is moving to the up direction, is in front of the 2nd floor and is taking on
3 calls:
Number of calls for car 1 to be sent: [(2 - 0) : 3] + 2 = 2
Car 2 has 3 calls: that is higher than the result of the formula (2) and that makes the car 1 be sent even if it is lower than the
car 2 for answering the landing calls.
• During the travel of the lift the areas of calls acceptance can be modified.
• The ‘Master’ controller attributes calls according to the possibility of a car to respond. In
consequence It is possible that a call given to one car will be removed if a second car is in a better
position to respond. When a car has neither a landing or a car call to respond, it stops at the next
floor doors and does not open the doors.
