1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The MICROZED V3.3 elevator controller module contains all the necessary components to control the
elevator and to simultaneously insure the protection of the elevator and user against faulty conditions. These
controllers can operate in a group of up to 4 elevators. In addition, this module has a user-friendly interface
consisting of one 24-characters by 2-lines LCD alphanumeric display and three push buttons to access the
different pages, menus and parameters editing (the display is sold separately).

Furthermore, the MICROZED V3.3 controller has a serial RS485 port enabling it to be connected to a hand
held diagnostic tool (sold separately) or via an interface (sold separately) to the RS232 port of a host computer.
Special software, available from S. & A.S. ltd., displays the general status of the elevator and the most recent 99
faults on the computer screen. Group operation for up to four elevators is supported.

1.2 TECHNICAL DATA

Supply voltages Board supply: 17vac +15% -25% - 120mA

Periphery supply: 22vdc +15% -25%
Inputs Each input has a led to indicate its status – all inputs are optically isolated
Input active voltage level is 22vdc
Control outputs Each output has a led to indicate its status – all outputs are optically isolated
Each output is capable of driving the negative side of a contactor or relay coil operating
from a dc voltage as high as 90 volts with currents as high as 3 amperes1
Call terminals Each call has a led to indicate its status
Each call terminal consists of a combined input/output which is optically isolated
Call active voltage level is zero volts (GND)
Call terminals are capable of driving lamps up to 3 watts operating on 22vdc
Each call terminal is protected by an additional output transistor
Indicator outputs Each output has a led to indicate its status – all outputs are optically isolated
Output active voltage level is 22vdc
Connection Screw type, plug-in connectors

1
Care should be taken to add a freewheeling diode in parallel with the coil of each contactor or relay driven from the board. Failure to do so will
jeopardize the operation of the output transistor and will eventually damage it.

4 VIEWING FAULTS AND FAULTS DESCRIPTION

4.1 HOW TO VIEW THE FAULTS
Faults detected by the board are divided into three levels:

1. Level I faults: faults that block the elevator when they occur. But the elevator can resume operation right after
the fault disappears.
2. Level II faults: faults that can be tolerated for a few occurrences before the elevator is blocked by the board.
The count of level II faults is shown on LCD Page 4. When the count of level II faults reaches the preset number6,
the board will block the elevator.
3. Level III faults: faults that the board considers to be fatal and will block any further operation of the elevator.

Pressing the Select push button while on LCD Page 4 will prompt the board to start displaying the last 99 faults
saved in memory. The board begins by displaying the last fault followed by the floor number where the fault
occurred. Press Previous or Next push buttons to display the previous or next fault.

4.2 HOW TO ERASE THE FAULTS

To erase the faults as well as the count of level II faults from memory, enter the menu, go to Empty Fault Log
and press Select push button. You will be prompted to confirm your request. If Yes is pressed all faults are erased,
if No is pressed, faults are not affected.

5 MENU
5.1 PASSWORD
A password is required for accessing the menu. The password consists of 6 digits. Two passwords can access the
menu. The first is provided by S. & A.S. Co. Ltd. and is referred to as client password. This password can only be
changed by S. & A.S. Co. Ltd. The second password is referred to as the user password. The user password can
be modified in the menu. The client password accesses all the items in the menu whereas the user password is
denied access to all menu items related to time restriction.

5.2 ACCESSING THE MENU

To access the menu, press the right most push button on the LCD Display while on pages 1, 2, 3 or 61. You will be
prompted to enter a password. The first digit on the left starts blinking. Use the left most push button to decrement
the digit and the middle push button to increment the digit. When the desired digit is reached, push the right most
push button. The digit is accepted and replaced by “*”. The next digit starts blinking. Repeat the above procedure
for all remaining five digits. If you have entered the right password, access to the menu will be granted, otherwise
access will be denied. Note that the push buttons have dynamic functions and their functions are at all times shown
on the lower line of the display.

6 INSTALLATION GUIDE
For the following analysis, we are assuming that the PTC is either disabled or properly connected, the DZ magnetic
switch is not installed and its parameter in the menu is set accordingly and EOS During Insp is Disabled.

Step 1

• Install and wire the panel according to wiring diagrams provided by the panel assembler.
• Double-check all connections.

Step 2

• Make sure that the board is in the Inspection Mode (Inspection switch should be opened)
• Power the panel.
• The floor number may be unknown (FL--). This is normal and it indicates that the board does not have a
previous car position in memory. As soon as the elevator is switched from inspection to normal operation, it will
make a homing trip and floor display will show 0 when the elevator reaches the first stop.
• If all safety circuits are closed, inspection up and inspection down push buttons are active (therefore inspection
travel only requires the closing of safety circuit). Below is a visual indication of what the status of the input
LEDs should be so that the elevator operates in the inspection mode:

Step 3

• Using the elevator in the inspection mode, adjust the position of all magnets according to the layout provided
on the ECBAB V3.0 WIRING DIAGRAM – INPUTS (SHEET 5 of 8); refer to section 7 APPENDIX A.
• If you are using bi-stable magnetic switches, proceed with inspection travel to terminal floors to properly set
their contacts.
• When you finish, and prior to changing the operating mode from inspection to normal, the inputs should look as
follows (given that elevator is on any intermediate floor and on floor level):

UP DN UP DN UP DN EN RDY ON OPN NDLY EO EC IN

Status Irrelevant Input Inactive (OFF) Input Active (ON)

• Refer to section 5 to set all internal parameters according to the site’s requirements.
• Change operating mode from INSPECTION to NORMAL. Elevator should proceed with its homing trip and will
stop on the floor level of the first floor.

1
When an inspection up or down is given, board proceeds by closing the door before moving. Door is then kept closed. This applies also for ½
automatic door.
2
This applies also for ½ automatic door.
