Elevator Control
Doors.NET supports Elevator Control when using NXT Mercury Powered controllers
and NXT 4x4 modules or GIOX units. For many different sized elevator applications this
can be an extremely cost-effective solution. With one 4x4 module wired into each bus
and using the four outputs on an NXT 4-door controller you can provide elevator control
access for up to 20 floors per 4-door controller and 10 floors per 2-door controller.
Using GIOX modules you can control up to 128 floors using either 2 or 4 door controllers.
You can use a maximum of two GIOX modules per controller, so if they are both fully pop-
ulated with 8 outputs cards each GIOX can provide control for 64 floors, giving you a
maximum total of 128 floors.
One reader is situated in the elevator cab and this one reader is responsible for all
access requests to all the floors. This Application Note will describe the process for con-
figuring elevator control for up to 20-floors. It is important to follow these steps in the cor-
rect order to ensure proper operation of your elevator control system.
Hardware Wiring Requirements
Cab Reader
The reader situated inside the elevator cab must be wired into bus 1 of the controller for
proper operation.
