Basic description

2N® Lift8 (L8) is a communication system with a function similar to an intercom. The individual announcers are linked to a common bus (pair of wires), connected to a splitter. The splitter is always connected to a central unit (CU) which controls the activity of the system and provides connection with the control centre. It is possible to connect up to 40 announcers to the bus.

Each splitter has unambiguous identification: lift number 1 to 8. For each lift we have announcers connected to the splitter – located: bottom of shaft, bottom of cabin, cabin roof of cabin and machine room. The announcer to the machine room can be configured as common for several lifts.

The CU contains an easily replaced backup rechargeable battery (lead rechargeable battery). The CU ensures the charging of this battery and monitoring of its state. The CU uses five coloured lamps for indication: power state, signal strength, telephone line state, state of bus and state of core. It also has a USB interface which serves for the comfortable configuration of parameters, for the recording of announcements and program upgrade.

The CU can be connected via: GSM, UMTS, or PSTN.

Warning

Do not open the CU during the warranty period .

After the warranty period open it only to change the rechargeable batteries.

Before you start

Conditions for installation of CU:

The central unit (referred to hereinafter as CU) is not intended for outdoor use.

Do not install the CU on a machine or construction which is a source of vibrations.

In order to ensure sufficient cooling free access to air must be ensured for the CU must (it is forbidden to cover the CU, for example with a rag, or to install it in another enclosed box).

Installation in the lift switchbox is possible if the air temperature in the this box does not exceed the permitted limits. Remember that a higher air temperature reduces the lifespan of backup rechargeable batteries in the CU.

It is recommended that the CU be operated in the upright position with the cable openings at the bottom. Such a mounting makes it possible to ensure the lowest temperatures of the rechargeable batteries and thus their longest life. Horizontal mounting is also possible. The upright position with the cable openings at the top (upside down) is forbidden!

After mounting the CU check that the equipment is firmly fixed in place and that it cannot come loose and drop down the shaft.

2N® TELEKOMUNIKACE a.s., www.2n.cz

Checking completeness of product

Before starting installation check to see whether the packaging of the product is complete:

1 central unit

1 terminal – slid into connector of main bus

1 12V power adapter in version depending on country of intended use

1 telephone cable with RJ terminals

2 wall plugs

2 screws for wall plugs

this manual (printed or on CD) guarantee sheet

Mounting of CU

The CU is installed in a room protected from unauthorised persons, for example in the lift machine room, switch room etc. In the case of installation in an accessible place there is a risk in particular of theft of the SIM card or abuse of the telephone line.

The CU is mounted on a wall with the included wall plugs and screws.

Electrical installation of CU

Operational launch:

1.Leave the CU disconnected from mains power.

2.Loosen the three screws on the upper cover of the CU.

3.Move the upper cover of the CU in such a way that you can remove it.

4.When removing the cover, proceed with caution, be careful of the earth wire connecting the cover with the bottom part of the CU. Do not disconnect the wire unless there is a reason so to do!

5.Using the push-in terminals supplied with the device, connect the announcers, splitters (if there are 2 and more lift shafts) and other components of the system with the CU. Adhere to polarity!

6.If it is not installed on the CU, a PSTN, GSM or UMTS module is fitted. Abide by the instructions given in the instructions for use of the given module. (chapter 2.7 , or 2.8)

7.In the case of PSTN module connect an analogue telephone line to it (use a telephone connector or the terminal on the module). In the case of a GSM or UMTS module do not forget to connect an aerial to the module and insert a SIM card in it!

8.By connecting the rechargeable battery link (see next chapter – checking state of rechargeable batteries) you activate the function of rechargeable batteries.

9.Put the upper cover back on the CU and tighten the screws which hold the cover. Before putting the cover on, check to see that the earthing wire is connected to the cover!

10.Connect the CU power cable to a 230V socket.

2N® TELEKOMUNIKACE a.s., www.2n.cz

Caution

If you only connect up 1 lift shaft, it is not necessary to connect with splitters. Splitters are only used if you want to connect 2 or more lift shafts.

Power supply

The CU is powered by mains 100-240V.

Warning

In no case connect an AC source or unstabilised DC source. The CU could be damaged.

Connection and checking state of rechargeable batteries

Procedure:

1.Leave the CU disconnected from mains power.

2.Loosen the three screws on the upper cover of the CU.

3.Move the upper cover of the CU in such a way that you can remove it.

4.When removing the cover, proceed with caution, be careful of the earth wire connecting the cover with the bottom part of the CU. Do not disconnect the wire unless there is a reason so to do!

5.Connect the rechargeable batteries and then connect them with the base board using a FASTON cable. (see picture). Adhere to the polarity of connection.

6.Put the upper cover back on the CU and tighten the screws which hold the cover. Before putting the cover on, check to see that the earthing wire is connected to the cover!

7.Connect the CU power cable to a 230V socket.

2N® TELEKOMUNIKACE a.s., www.2n.cz

After plugging the CJ into the socket the LED (Power/battery) should start to flash (charging). The CU charges the rechargeable batteries until fully charged. After some time the flashing green LED (charging) should change to a permanently illuminated green LED (battery charged).

Warning

Adhere to the polarity of the rechargeable batteries! When the polarity of the rechargeable batteries is reversed, there is a danger of their fire or explosion or damage to the electronics of the central unit.

Connection of bus between splitter and CU

We connect the central unit and splitter using the 6-wire main bus (power + - , audio + - , data + - ). You must maintain the polarity.

2 … Bus for announcers –

Requirements:

When using multi-strand cables, always use a pair of wires which belong to each other. In the case of regular cables of the UTP type the paired wires are twisted around each other.

When running special cables (to the cabin), use neighbouring wires and ensure that the nearest surrounding wire is not a source of interference (for example, power wire, videosignal etc.).

Recommendation:

Do not run the bus near power wires, especially long sections.

The bus can be forked, in particular if this makes the overall length of all sections shorter.

2N® TELEKOMUNIKACE a.s., www.2n.cz

Safety

The bus is electrically separated from the circuits of the telephone line according to the requirements of EN60950 and has only low voltage which cannot cause an electric shock injury.

Possibility of connection to the telephone network

Connection of the central unit is possible in 4 ways:

PSTN

GSM

UMTS

PSTN

L8 works regardless of polarity and the parameters of the line in the broad band (see Technical Parameters). Connect it with the enclosed cable with RJ-12 terminal. It is the most reliable and simplest connection. The disadvantage is the operating costs (fixed fee).

Caution

Only one CU may be connected to one telephone line, and no other end telephone equipment may be connected to it.

Neither is it possible to use a product which the telephone line goes through, so-called priority connection (for example electronic burglar alarm).

It is not possible to use a so-called extension or party line.

It is not possible to use telephone “adaptors” not even smart ones. In no case connect the product to an ISDN line

Demands on telephone line:

The line must not be a dual one or a party one

The telephone socket and the wiring to it are usually the property of the relevant network’s owner, and they must not be tampered with

Other recommendations:

The installation of L8 must be reported to the operator and a confirmation of certification submitted upon demand

Your connected wiring must comply with the relevant safety regulations

It is appropriate to secure the wiring against pirate connection (for example with a telephone lock)

Connection via PBX (private branch exchange):

This is the cheapest connection where a PBX is already installed and where a free line (branch) PBX is available.

Demands for PBX line:

The used PBX must be functional even during a power cut. For larger PBX there is commonly a backup source, and for smaller ones a certain exchange is usually

2N® TELEKOMUNIKACE a.s., www.2n.cz

connected directly to the PSTN when there is a power failure. Discuss this case with the technician who looks after the PBX. In the case of a power cut there is a risk that the L8’s call will go to a different number.

The used PBX lien must have the necessary authorisation configured (it is necessary to test using for example a regular telephone to see if it is possible to “out” to all the required numbers).

During programming it is necessary to add the code for calling the PSTN (usually zero) or (preferably) t ensure such a configuration of the PBX where a code is not required (so-called automatic connection to telephone line of operator).

For calling in the direction from the control centre to the lift it is necessary to know the number of the branch and the means of getting through to it (code, DISA code, operator).

The connection in the direction from the control centre to the lift must not be dependent on the presence of an operator, during the night there must be no forwarding to an answering machine etc.

Other recommendations:

it is necessary to agree the financing of operation with the owner of the PBX (outgoing calls L8 are charged to it if they are not free calls, to “green lines”).

Tip

If there is permanent manning in the building (guard, receptionist), it is possible to train the staff in how to rescue people and then programme L8 to call this service..

GSM

This is used in particular where it is not possible to connect up to the PSTN line.

Recommendation:

In places with poor signal quality find an appropriate place or use a special (directional) antenna.

Protect the SIM card from theft.

If a prepaid SIM card is used, ensure that the credit is monitored and topped up in time.

UMTS

This is used in particular where it is not possible to connect up to the PSTN line. If Lift8 is connected using UMTS, the system can be configured remotely using the service tool program.

Recommendation:

In places with poor signal quality find an appropriate place or use a special (directional) antenna.

Protect the SIM card from theft.

If a prepaid SIM card is used, ensure that the credit is monitored and topped up in time.

Operation without SIM card or PSTN line:

L8 can be used as an intercom at the time of fitting of the lift even without an inserted SIM card or without connected PSTN line. In this case it is necessary to

2.2 Splitter

Description

The splitter serves for connection of central unit with announcers of given lift. Six wires are connected to the central unit (power, audio, data). Announcers (audio units) are connected to the splitter using a two-wire bus. The splitter also contains a make/break contact for the function of blocking the lift. There can be a maximum of 8 splitters (according to the number of lift shafts). Each splitter must be configured for a different address (number of lift shaft) for the system to work. The address is configured as 2-8 (lift 2-8). Lift 1 is the central unit.

The splitters are connected in series, i.e.., one after the other. It is not possible to connect them in parallel. The system Lift8 would be unstable. On the last splitter (furthest from the central unit) the termination resistance (jumper) is connected.

It is possible to power a splitter from the local power.

Electrical Installation

Connection to main bus

Pull the push-in terminal from the connector of the main bus and connect six wires from the CU. You must maintain the polarity (power + -, audio + -, data + - ), see printed picture on cover of splitter.

Warning

It is necessary to adhere to the polarity of connection. Otherwise the system Lift8 will not work properly.

Connection of bus between announcers and splitter

We connect the splitter and announcers using a two-wire bus. We must maintain the polarity

Audio unit bus

2 … Bus for announcers –

Configuration of address

We configure the address of the splitter for the given lift using a 10-position switch 0-9 (see picture).

We configure lift 2-8 as 2-8. (for example for lift 5 we configure the switch to position 5).

2N® TELEKOMUNIKACE a.s., www.2n.cz

Warning

Do not configure the splitter address as 0, 1 and 9 or the system will report a fault

Address 1 is used by the central unit

Connection of announcers:

1.It is possible to connect up to 5 announcers to each splitter. Because a splitter has only 3 terminals for connection the audio units, we connect 1-2 announcers in series one after the other.

2.We pull out the push-on terminals from the connectors for the audio units and connect up the twin-wire. We must adhere to polarity, otherwise the connected announcers will not work.

3.The polarity of connection is shown on the picture printed on the splitter and announcer.

Requirements:

Connect a maximum of 2 announcers to one terminal.

When using multi–strand cables, always use a pair of wires which belong to each other. In the case of regular cables of the UTP type the paired wires are twisted around each other.

When running special cables (to the cabin), use neighbouring wires and ensure that the nearest surrounding wire is not a source of interference (for example, power wire, videosignal etc.).

Recommendation:

Do not run the bus near power wires, especially long sections.

The bus can be forked, in particular if this makes the overall length of all sections shorter.

Warning

The bus is electrically separated from the circuits of the telephone line according to the requirements of EN60950 and has only low voltage which cannot cause an electric shock injury.

Connection of function for blocking of lift

Blocking works by the contact breaking when there is a fault of the telephone line (PSTN, GSM, UMTS) or if the L8 rechargeable batteries are nearly flat. Connect the contact to the relevant input of the control electronics of the lift or group of lifts. The control electronics must ensure that after the breaking of the contact, the lifts which are in operation go down to the nearest station and the doors open.

Caution

This function may be mandatory, which depends on regulations valid in the given country and time when you perform the installation.

2N® TELEKOMUNIKACE a.s., www.2n.cz

Termination resistance

Caution

There are 3 pins between the connection of the main bus and configuration of the lift number for configuration of the termination resistance. This is used on the last splitter which is connected in the system. (it is the furthest from the CU).

The jumper has a factory setting in the switched off position for the termination resistance.

2.3 Announcer – cabin universal

Description

The user does not come into direct contact with this product. The control and indication elements depend on the specific installation. The functions of the indication elements correspond to standards

Picture 2.3: Announcer– cabin universal

Before you start

Installation conditions

The panel must be prepared for installation, at very least there has to be a perforation for the speaker here.

The panel must have the prescribed elements:

ALARM button;

illuminated pictogram “requirement received”;

illuminated pictogram “connection made”.

The location of all these elements must correspond to regulations. There must be free space of at least 65×130×20 mm behind the panel.

Checking packaging of product

Before starting installation, check to see whether the packaging of the product is complete.

2N® TELEKOMUNIKACE a.s., www.2n.cz

Announcer for cabin – contains (assembled):

1 electronics board

4 clamps slid onto board, see photo

4 connectors slid onto board, see printing on cover

1 assembly panel

1 speaker connected directly or by cable

1 microphone connected directly or by cable

1 cover with printing 5 tightening straps

Mounting

Mounting of electronics

This announcer is intended for mounting behind a lift control panel. The panel is usually prepared for installation according to this drawing:

Picture 2.4: Dimensions of mounting holes for announcer – cabin universal

2N® TELEKOMUNIKACE a.s., www.2n.cz

For mounting one needs (from the inner side of the panel) 4 electrically welded (spotted) M3 or M4 screws and a sufficiently perforated surface for the speaker and opening for microphone. As an emergency measure one can also install the announcer with high-quality double-sided foam adhesive tape on a perfectly degreased surface.

Safety

There must be no gap between the lift control panel and the surface of the announcer so that there is no acoustic shorting of the speaker and acoustic feedback between the speaker and microphone.

It is not permitted to use this type of announcer other than when mounted on a sufficiently large board. It is not possible to guarantee the acoustic properties of an uninstalled announcer.

Separate mounting of microphone

If the microphone is supplied separately on a 25×25mm board with self-adhesive film and equipped with a cable, it is possible to mount it behind any hole in a board (minimum diameter of hole is 5mm, or group of smaller holes with same overall area. The microphone is stuck (from the back) directly in the required place (the surface must be cleaned of dust and grease beforehand!).

Requirements :

The minimum distance between the centre of the speaker and microphone is 90 mm. There could be feedback if the distance is shorter. But a greater distance (within the range of the supplied 1m cable) does no harm.

The microphone must be stuck on so that it does not pick up (even in part!) the acoustic pressure from the space behind the control panel. There would occur acoustic feedback with the speaker, which sends out sound strongly into this space.

Separate mounting of speaker

The speaker has a cable which can be separated from the electronics (simply pulled out) in the range of the supplied wires (1m). This possibility is intended for cases where it is necessary to install a speaker in a place where there is no space for all the electronics. Adhere to the following instructions when fixing the speaker:

if you stick the speaker on, ensure such a procedure or type of glue so that the membrane is not damaged by the glue and volatile substances or heat.

we recommend that the sealing be left on the speaker, it prevents vibration and serves as electrical insulation.

2N® TELEKOMUNIKACE a.s., www.2n.cz

Frequently asked questions about speaker

Is it possible to use the speaker jointly for the communicator and floor announcer?

No, it is not possible.

Can I use my own speaker?

Yes, with an impedance of 64 Ω. But in this case you take responsibility for the sufficient volume and frequency range.

Can I locate the speaker on the cabin ceiling? We do not recommend this location.

Can I use a longer cable to the speaker?

For the speaker yes, but we do not recommend it for the microphone.

Configuration of announcer’s location

The announcer has a factory setting as a cabin announcer, and so it is not necessary to change the configuration. If you want to use the announcer otherwise than in the cabin, proceed as follows.

Procedure

1.Preconfigure the jumper on the configuration jumper 12

2.If there is poor access to the pins, it is possible to remove the covers of the electronics. Slightly loosen the four screws and shift the cover upwards. Now you can removed the cover.

3.The first 4 pins serve for setting the location of the announcer (1. cabin ceiling, 2. cabin - default, 3. under the cabin, 4. bottom of shaft).

4.Configure the required changes according to the printed marking on the cover of the electronics.

5.If you have removed the cover, put it back in the original position and tighten the screw

2N® TELEKOMUNIKACE a.s., www.2n.cz

Picture 2.6: Configuration of address for Announcer – cabin universal

Note

Ensure that two announcers do not have the same location configured – otherwise the system reports an error.

Use jumpers for configuration of location only rarely, for example if you us the relevant type of announcer in a different location than that for which it is normally intended.

You can restore the original settings of location easily according to the depiction on the cover

Connection to bus

Polarity must be maintained.

2N® TELEKOMUNIKACE a.s., www.2n.cz

Warning

The connection of the announcer to a different wire, for example to a higher voltage, will result in its damage or destruction.

Maintain polarity when connecting the announcer, otherwise the announcer will not work.

Caution

The announcer is connected via a 2-wire bus. The disconnection of these wires causes the announcer to switch off.

Beware of duplicate configuration of location of announcers.

Connection of ALARM button

Requirements :

The ALARM button must comply with the requirements valid for the given installation in terms of its version (colour, pictogram, surface of keypad, mechanical operation).

Button control

Requirements :

The ALARM button must have a make or break contact which is not connected to any other circuits.

None of the outlets of the button may be galvanically linked with any other electrical circuit, no voltage may be connected to the ALARM clamps – only contact.

If the ALARM button has several contacts and a different contact is connected to a different circuit, the corresponding insulation strength between the contacts corresponding to valid standards must be ensured.

Procedure :

1.Leave the ALARM clamp in the lower position (3).

2.If you use a make contact, leave the jumper as is (5 pin on jumper 12) – ALARM without fitting jumper (this configuration is the factory one)

3.If you use a break contact, fit the jumper (5 pin on jumper 12) - ALARM inverted

– jumper fitted

Voltage control

Requirements :

direct voltage in range of 12 to 48 V.

The voltage signal must be functional even during a power failure. Procedure :

1.Move the ALARM clamp up two pins to the position (2).

2.For activation by connection of voltage, leave the jumper as is (5 pin on jumper

12)- ALARM without fitting jumper (this configuration is the factory one)

3.For activation by disconnection of voltage, fit jumper (5 pin on jumper 12) –

2N® TELEKOMUNIKACE a.s., www.2n.cz

ALARM inverted – fitted with jumper

Warning

Non-adherence to these instructions could result in damage to the product.

Connection of CANCEL input (door contact, optional)

This input makes it possible to cancel a request for rescue if the lift is fully functional. After pressing the ALARM button the system waits for the configured period, which is slightly longer than the maximum period for journey of the lift. If the lift is functional, during this period it must go to the configured station and the door must open. In such a case the requirement is cancelled. If the door does not open, the requirement is accepted.

Before installation find out if there is an open door signal available in the lift cabin.

Requirements :

If the lift has double doors, the signal must be active only if both sets of doors are open, i.e., if it is truly possible to leave the cabin.

The door position signal must also work if there is a power failure.

Control by contact

Requirements :

None of the outlets from the contact may be galvanically linked with any other electrical circuit, no voltage may be connected to the CANCEL clamps – only contact.

Procedure

1.Leave the CANCEL clamp in the lower position (5).

2.If you use a make contact, leave the jumper as is (6 pin on jumper 12) - CANCEL without fitting jumper (this configuration is the factory one)

3.If you use a break contact, fit the jumper (6 pin on jumper 12) - CANCEL inverted – jumper fitted

Voltage control

Requirements :

direct voltage in range of 12 to 48V.

Procedure :

1.Move the CANCEL clamp up two pins to the position (4).

2.For activation by connection of voltage, leave the jumper as is (6 pin on jumper

12)- CANCEL without fitting jumper (this configuration is the factory one)

3.For activation by disconnection of voltage, fit jumper (6 pin on jumper 12) - CANCEL inverted – fitted with jumper

2N® TELEKOMUNIKACE a.s., www.2n.cz

Warning

Non-adherence to these instructions could result in damage to the product.

Caution

Delayed calling must be programmed in order for the connection of the CANCEL input to make sense.

Configuration of ALARM and CANCEL is depicted on the cover of the electronics.

Connection of indication elements (LED)

The current technology of LED production makes it possible to achieve relatively good light intensity with a small current. Because the indication elements of the lift are illuminated by a sufficiently powerful LED for which a current of around 5 mA is sufficient (with a drop on the diode of around 2 V), it is possible to get by without a source. In this case connection corresponds to the following picture.

Picture 2.8: Alternative connection of indication elements for announcer – cabin universal

Note

The cables for are not a regular part of the delivery, only after prior agreement.

When using this connection the ancillary control lamp is not illuminated on the printed circuit.

Connection of induction loop

During the installation of the communicator it is necessary to abide by current regulations, which may designate the installation loops for the hard of hearing as a mandatory part of the communicator in the lift cabin. The loop is connected to the connector (10) with any polarity. Following agreement it can be part of the delivery, including cable 1m long.

2N® TELEKOMUNIKACE a.s., www.2n.cz

Requirements

The induction loop must be located on a non-metal, non-magnetic cover element in the control panel because the magnetic field of an induction loop does not pass through a metal control panel.

The indication loop must be marked by the relevant pictogram (ear), and its location must correspond to valid standards.

2N® TELEKOMUNIKACE a.s., www.2n.cz

Picture 2.20: Connectors of announcer – machine room

Configuration of address

Under the transparent front cover there is a group of jumpers. If the machine room is intended only for the given lift, do not use any jumper. The announcer identifies itself as the machine room for the given lift.

If the machine room should be common for several lifts, configure the corresponding pins 1-8, depending on for which lifts you want to have a common machine room. (numbered from left -> to right 1-8)

Note

The configuration of a different location of announcer is not possible. This announcer is always configured as the machine room.

Right group of 8 jumpers: configuration of address If the machine room is common for several lifts, it is possible to use one announcer and configure several addresses using the included jumpers. Other types of announcers do not have this possibility!

Note

If the announcer has several configured addresses, by pressing the TRIPHONY button you activate communication of the announcers in the lift with the lowest of the configured addresses.

Caution

Be careful of duplicate configuration of a common announcer machine room.

Connection to bus
