Elevator Forum

I'm no fan of harmonic door operators. I don't know why anyone in their right mind would install one on a completely new job. I can understand the con...

You're really better of using either the Wittur drive only or the retrofit version of the GAL MONXT called omni. This will allow you to retain the Mia...

TAC20 is closer to DMC whereas TAC32 is closer to Swift Futura. If you never heard of Futura, if you ever run into a Dover elevator that says "Miami E...

The ICON32 is very similar. You should only use this as reference, not full solution. https://verticalxpress.com/media/download_files/component_manual...

It should be a moral sin to replace a 3200. Northern is the best company ever. It's the one and only brand of elevator I've never been stuck in, never...

I'm not 100% sure about this, but because the OG NMX (the one with the plug-in AMO encoder, not the MX with the rotary encoder) and the Imperial 540 s...

It's very similar to a SWIFT Futura. Look for LER (lobby elevator request) for lobby (param #L10).for other floors, look for zones 1-n (Params #L14-L2...

I've never seen this on any installs, but the nicer thing about the newer KONE MRLs (the NMX ones) is that both they and the Imperial 540 series (KONE...

BTW: Have you ever seen Innovation bruiser (PB-23) buttons where the button is made of mirror finish #8 stainless steel instead of the more common bru...

Here's another reason to admire Northern. They invented the Malfunction Management Unit (MMU), which includes unintended movement protection and door ...

The only good controller other than Northern I can give a good rating to is the MCE 2000/4000 series and their predecessors PTC & PHC.

I'm thinking on the new ones you can. The ones with the AMO type encoder (NMX series). This is because the imperial knockoff version uses the same typ...

Just for the fun of it. It might be easier to mod an NMX with a non-KONE logic unit such as MCE, without having to replace the machine itself. This is...

Don't forget about VCI (VA controls).
