Chapter 1 Overview

To facilitate the users who use the NICE3000 control system for the first time to understand
how to commission the control system as quickly as possible, this manual briefly describes
the specifications, wiring, common parameter setting, and common commissioning of the
NICE3000.

The application range of the NICE3000 is as follows:

Maximum Number

Parallel/Group Mode Inputs Outputs

40 4 m/s 2 to 8 elevators 24 6

The NICE3000 series elevator integrated control system mainly includes the elevator
integrated controller, car top board (MCTC-CTB), hall call board (MCTC-HCB), car call
board (MCTC-CCB), and optional door pre-open module, and remote monitoring system.

Note

1. In terms of single-phase and three-phase 220 VAC, NICE-L-A/B-2002 and NICE-L-A/B-2003
are specially designed for 220 VAC. The other models that are marked by prefixing "220-" are
modified from the three-phase 380 VAC models.

2. Same models are available for single-phase 220 VAC and three-phase 220 VAC. Pay attention
to the power rating of the adaptable motor during the use.

3. Select the proper controller output current based on the motor rated current. Ensure that the
controller output current is equal to or greater than the motor rated current.

2.4 Braking Resistor

The models of 30 kW or below have a built-in braking unit, and you only need to connect an
external braking resistor between PB and + terminals. For models above 30 kW, you need
to install a braking unit and a braking resistor externally.

Select the braking resistor based on the configuration listed in the following table.

Note

1. The preceding configuration takes the synchronous motor as an example. The asynchronous
motor has poor energy transfer efficiency, and you can reduce the power of the braking resistor or
increase the resistance of the braking resistor.

2. It is recommended that you select the braking resistor closest to the maximum resistance.

Chapter 3 Component Description

3.1 Onboard Keypad Description

The onboard keypad consists of three 7-segment LEDs and three buttons. You can query
information about the controller and enter simple commands on the keypad.

The following figure shows the appearance of the keypad.

As shown in the preceding figure, the three buttons are PRG, UP, and SET. The functions of
the three buttons are as follows:

• PRG: Press this button in any state to display the current function group number.

You can press the UP button to change the function group number.

• UP: Press this button to increase the function group number.

Currently, the MCB defines a total of nine function code groups, namely, F0 to F8. You
can press the UP button to display them in turn. In addition, in special function code
group menu, you can input simple references by using the UP button.

• SET: In the function code group menu, press this button to enter the menu of the

function code group.

In special function code group menu, after you input a simple reference and press this
button to save the setting, the keypad enters the F0 menu by default.

Brief NICE3000 Instruction Manual Component Description

The function code groups displayed on the keypad are described as follows:

1. F0: display of floor and running direction

The F0 menu is displayed on the keypad by default upon power-on. The first 7-segment
LED indicates the running direction, while the last two 7-segment LEDs indicate the
current floor of the elevator.

When the elevator stops, the first 7-segment LED has no display. When the elevator
runs, the 1st 7-segment LED indicates the running direction.

When a system fault occurs, the 7-segment LEDs automatically display the fault code
and blink. If the fault is reset, the F0 menu is displayed.

2. F1: command input of the running floor

After you enter the F1 menu, the 7-segment LEDs display the bottom floor (F6-01). You
can press the UP key to set the destination floor within the range of lowest to top and
then press the SET key to save the setting. The elevator runs to the destination floor,
and the 7-segment LEDs automatically switch over to the F0 menu at the same time.

3. F2: fault reset

After you enter the F2 menu, the 7-segment LEDs display 0. When you press the UP
button to select 1 and press the SET button, the system fault is reset. After the system
fault is reset, the 7-segment LEDs automatically switch over to the F0 menu.

4. F3: time display

After you enter the F3 menu, the 7-segment LEDs display the current system time
circularly.

5. F4: contract number display

After you enter the F4 menu, the 7-segment LEDs display the user's contract number.

6. F5: running times display

After you enter the F5 menu, the 7-segment LEDs display the elevator running times
circularly.

7. F6: reserved

User setting is prohibited.

8. F7: shaft auto-tuning command input

After you enter the F7 menu, the 7-segment LEDs display 0. You can select 0 or 1 here,
where 1 indicates the shaft auto-tuning command available. After you select 1 and press
the SET button, shaft auto-tuning is implemented if the conditions are met. Meanwhile,
the 7-segment LEDs switch over to the F0 menu. After shaft auto-tuning is complete, F7
is back to 0 automatically. If shaft auto-tuning conditions are not met, fault code "E35" is
displayed.

9. F8: test function

After you enter the F8 menu, the 7-segment LEDs display 00. The setting range of F8 is
1–4, described as follows:

Component Description Brief NICE3000 Instruction Manual

- 18 -

1: Hall call forbidden

2: Door open forbidden

3: Overload forbidden

4: Limit switches disabled

After the setting is complete, press SET. Then the 7-segment LEDs display E88 and
blink, prompting that the elevator is being tested. When you press PRG to exit, F8 is
back to 0 automatically.

3.2 Use of the LED Operation Panel

The LED operation panel is connected to the RJ45 interface of the NICE3000 controller by
means of an 8-core flat cable. You can modify the function parameters, monitor the working
status, and run or stop the NICE3000 controller by using the LED operation panel. The
following figure shows the appearance of the LED operation panel.

3.4 Display Board (MCTC-HCB)

As an important interface between users and the control system, the MCTC-HCB receives
hall calls and displays the current floor and running direction for the hall. This board can also
be used as car display board.

Monarch provides many types of display boards. The following describes only a few
common types. If you need other types, please contact Monarch.

The common types to be described are listed in the following table.

3.5 CCB Board

The car call board (MCTC-CCB) is another interface between users and the control
system. Each CCB comprises 24 inputs and 22 outputs, including 16 floor buttons and 8
functional signals. The CCB mainly collects button calls and outputs signals of the button
call indicators. The need for 31-floor use can be implemented through cascaded connection.
CN2 is an input connector and CN1 is a cascaded output connector.

The following figure shows the structure of the CCB.
