USER GUIDE


Welcome
The BraveLLW Lift Communicator is designed for emergency call from lift cabin
to first aid ( service department, police, etc…)
The BraveLLW is certained for 1 lift cabin (but it is possible communicators
connected in parallel to one line). It is connectable to analog PSTN line or analog
extension of PABX. TheBraveLLW is powered from telephone line –the features
reminds hands free phone. Is possible to one telephone line connect up to 5
BraveLLW communicators parallel. It is completely independent on lift power
supply. The LED signalization as same as status detection is powered from
telephone line, extended signalization requires only connect the LEDs without
external power supply. Inputs on basic module are galvanically connected with
telephone line, only inputs market by the symbol „Isol.“ is galvanicaly isolated
and activate is possible by connect external voltage.
Basic module is possible expand on Option module. The Option module is
powered only from 12/24V and it's galvanicaly isolated from telephone line
including inputs and otputs on the Option board.
The BraveLLW has adjustable parametres saved in internal memory. The
parametres might be programmed either by phone via tone (DTMF) dial or by
computer PC via configuration software. For connection the BraveLLW to PC
you have to use special USB cabel.
After button pressing the BraveLLW enables to make phone call up 6
numbers max 16 digits in tone or pulse dial. It is possible also dial “* ”, “ # ”,
Pauze and Flash in tone dial. The button activation might be blocked by input
BLK.
At all numbers is possible to use mode with or without confirmation.

1.2 Terminology
It is explain here the meaning of used words in manual.
BraveLLW it is final product Alphatech company designed for
communication from lift cabin to service center.
Emergency call it is person calling while lift failure or other emergency
situation happened. It is activates by button pushing.
The call (outgoing) is being between lift cabin and
service center.
Service call it is calling (outgoing) regularly repeated. (for example
every 3 days). It is automatic proving of BraveLLW
communicator functionality.
Technical call it is five sort and calling caused (outgoing):
- by long press button‚ BTN1 like as information "End of
Emergency call" (end of alarm)
- by status change on input INP1 - INP8 on Option module
- by information of not moving cabin (INP/OUT3 on Option
module
- bad acoustic way
- permanent pressed button BTN2
Machine room call it is calling between lift cabin and machine room, in
machine room must be SwitchBoard.
Incoming call it is calling coming from outside into BraveLLW unit.
The BraveLLW pick up (you can programm
parametres)
Dial it is kind of dial on telephone line –dial (DTMF) dial
(dial even acknowledgement * and # , use loop
interuption = Flash) or pulse –(dial only numeral)
Telephone line PSTN line (public line) (line coming directly from
Telecommunication carrier) or extension line
(coming from PBX)
Confirmation dial of combination first character (star *) and
numerals. After dialling of those characters the call is
authorised and lift communicator reply ones of more
kinds (next in manual)
Serial number each lift communicator BraveLLW has unique serial
number since 00001 to 65535. This number is
sending via DTMF every time when BraveLLW
receives confirmation character
Call connection this status is indicated via lighting of green check –

1.4 Connection Basic module
1.4.1 Connection telephone line
Connector for connection telephone line has two wires for telephone line
connection or Switch board connection. If you use Switch board, so it possible
parallel connect max. three BraveLLW and it is necessary to set the parallel
mode on communicators and the number of communicators, so that the main is
always 1.
Telephone line interface has following typical parametres. The voltage
in Hang up status (disconnect loop) 20-60V DC (during connection not depends
on polarity), when BraveLLW pick up (active status) on telephone line is cca 7-
12V, depends on line current which is in range 20-60mA. Further telephone line
parametres are signalling, ringing (incoming call) is define by AC voltage from
50-90V and frequency 20 –60Hz. To the signalling belongs even tones, have
frequency 425Hz +/- 20Hz and level -10dBm (cca 0,22V) and different
cadences. The BraveLLW reacts on those tones.

1.4.4 Connection filtering call from BTN2
The connector BLK is designed for filtering of button BTN2 for emergency
call. Input is galvanicaly connect with telephone line. Posibility connect contact
NO or NC (programable by parameter). Use only contact without voltage
potential.
For BLK Isol. is possible use for activate by external voltage 5-24V -
connector with symbol „Isol.“ (isolate by optocoupler).
From Version of Firmware V4.5 is new feature of this input. If we set
parameter 34 = 2, so system of Blocking call from Btn2 is disable and this input
has new function: present engineer at lift cabin.
If engineer arrived on the cabin, switch NO switcher to closse and after 1-2min
is begin technical call with mark [*]. Before engineer leave the lift cabin switch
NO switcher to open and after 1-2min is begin technical call with mark [#].

1.5 Connection over - under cabin
Over - under cabine is possible connect microphone, speaker, button
BTN1 and LEDs (green + yellow). Connection is posssible via not crossing
cable (8 wires) with crimple connectores RJ45 like as UTP cable with same
rule as for ethernet connection.
In this case is available button BTN1 for emergency call without
possibilities of filterinkg BLK. Use only contact without voltage potential, can be
used NO or NC contacts (programable).
For connection over - under cabin is possible connect speaker with
impedance higher then 40 ohms (45ohm is recommended). Microphone has
polarity - attention for connection.
Beware of links to other circuits (eg cutting cable to ground cabin) - all
signals are electrically connected to the telephone line and must not be
connected to anything else.
