6. Shaft Learning (With Motor Encoder Systems) & Test Driving
If shaft copy system is not used, the lift can be tried to run in normal operation after the magnet installation has been made in
accordance with the scheme.
If ARL-700 "SHAFT POSITION. SYSTEM " parameter arranged to "ML1-ML2 magnets", the deceleration distance is
determined with 141&142 magnets.
The distance of the deceleration magnets is determined by the speed of the car.
The distances shown in Table-1 are the ideal deceleration distances. "SHAFT POS.
SYSTEM "parameter is arranged to "ML1-ML2” magnets ", the distances in Table-1
can be used when the 141-142 magnets are placed in accordance with the diagram.
These distances are also used for "817-818" forced decelerations. If the parameter
“SHAFT POS. SYSTEM” is arranged to “Motor encoder”, these values can also be
used for the parameter “deceleration distance”
In shaft copy systems, ARL-700 should do shaft learning procedure once to sense the car and floor positions before normal
operation. Therefore, check the magnetic switch, magnets layout and encoder connections according to the encoder counting
system as described earlier. After checking, perform shaft learning procedure as described below.
•Go to the "DRIVER SETTINGS" parameter under the "PARAMETERS" menu. Press "ENT" button and the
"SLOWING DISTANCE" value is arranged according to Table-1.
•Also the slowing distance should be arrange for ADrive. In order to arrange it;
•"1.1-HIGH SPEED" value is arranged in the "1- TRAVEL CURVE" menu. This value is used to determine the
maximum speed the lift can reach.
•“1.4-LOW SPEED” parameters ideal value is 0.13m/s. It can be used without any change. The Parameter “1.8-
SLOWING DST” should be arranged to 15 cm less than ARL-700 parameter “SLOWING DISTANCE” value. Also
if ARL-700 "SHAFT POSITION. SYSTEM" parameter arranged to "ML1-ML2 magnets", the ADrive parameter
“1.8-SLOWING DST” should be arranged to 15 cm less than the deceleration distance of 141&142 magnets.
•The lift should not to be in recall or inspection mode in order to be able to perform shaft learning procedure. In such a
case a warning message will be displayed on the screen.
•The “SHAFT POS. SYS” parameter under “BASIC SETTINGS” should be arranged to “Motor encoder”.
•The car position is not important while shaft learning. The system automatically starts to move, after reaching bottom
floor the car goes to the top floor with learning shaft and complete the driving.

•This may take some time depending on the number of stops of the elevator. For this reason, do not hurry.
•After shaft learning is completed, answer "Yes" to the question "SAVE?" Otherwise, the shaft learning process is not
saved and shaft learning will be required again.
•After "Yes" is selected and the ENT button is pressed, the system will be automatically restarted and the car will go to
the bottom floor to reset floor information. In this case, "RESETTNG POSITION" will appear on the ARL-700
display. All the time the system is started, the system will go to find lift positions in shaft copying systems.
7. Landing And Car Calls Settings
Car Calls:
•CPC or CPC-T (Car Panel Controller) boards are used to give car calls. These are connected to IBC-S (Inspection Box
Controller) board by serial communication. If dipswitch settings were done which is shown ni “Software Update”, it
is not necessary to do any additional settings. (Note that CPC and CPC-T dipswitch settings are different from each
other.)
•The FX-CAN board is a combination of IBC-S and CPC cards, and for used car calls. The settings and features are
described in “Software Update”.
•Check that the lift goes to all floors with car calls before arranging the settings for the landing calls.
Landing Calls:
•ARL-700 can accept landing calls both serial connection(CANBus) and parallel connection. If landing calls are wanted
to use as paralel, the MSP-16 or MSP-32 board has to be used. (see “Software Update” and “Settings” for more
information)
•If CANBus is wanted to use for landing calls, position of landing calls’ buttons would be defined to ARL-700. This
can be done in two ways. With ARL-700 keypad or AREM hand terminal.

on the screen of AREM. If there aren’t any learned
position you will see figure right side of floor
numbers. In that situation if your LOP has a display you
will see “??” on LOP screen. If position learning was
done previously you will see figure right side of
floor numbers. In that situation you will see “A” “+” and
defined floor number on LOP screen respectively.
•For B door this sign will be “B”. “+” means the display
is used for landing call button. If “-” sign appears on
screen of LOP, this means the display is used only
display.
LOP Learning:
•If the car is at bottom floor and LOP display shows “??” or wrong landing floor, you must hold down call button of
LOP until appears correct floor number on LOP screen. For first floor door A you must see “A” “+” and ”1” respectively.
If your system has B door you should slide scroll box to right side and hold down call button of LOP until appears “B”
“+” and “1” respectively. The while figure will change as figure . Give a call from COP to second floor after
completed definition of first floor. All LOPs must be defined for all floor according to explanation above.
•If LOP doesn’t have a screen, you should hold down call button of LOP until figure will change as figure on
AREM screen. The while led of LOP will flash for a second when landing position is learned.
•If the LOPs are used only for display you don’t have to do these settings. The display will show floor number when

12.1. Dip Switch Settings Of CPC Board
ARL-700, that can work with two-door support up to a total of 64 stops, collects car calls with the help of a CPC card. Each CPC
card can serve up to 24 stops. If there are more than 24 floors or on condition that it has two doors, two CPC cards must be used.
For an elevator with 64 stops and two doors, a sum of 6 CPC cards must be used. The dipswitch which is located on CPC board
is used to determine working type and door settings.

CPC-T board can be optionally used instead of CPC board. As seen in the table above, the dip-switch settings are different from
each other. So, please pay attention this case while doing dip-switch settings.
For CPC-T board, car call button connections are done wire by wire with terminal. If the system has more than 16 stops, it is not
possible to use CPC-T board.
12.3. IO-0210 Board
In some cases, programmable inputs and outputs may not be enough. Then, this IO-0210 board would be useful. This board gives
2 inputs and 10 transistor outputs to the user.
From “Programmable outputs” parameter, the outputs should be assigned from related group number. (Tools device
parameters programmable outputs IO-0210 board outputs)
1 pc. IO-0210 board gives 10 programmable transistor outputs to the user. There are 8 dip-switches. The logic of these
dip-switches is as follows:
For outputs, 1 and 2 dipswitches are used to select the group number of output:

For inputs, other 6 dipswitches (from 3(MSB) to 8(LSB)) works with a binary logic. For example; MSB: Most Significant Bit
(3rd dip-switch)
LSB: Least Significant Bit (8th dip-switch)
You can program 64 different IO-0210 boards for inputs.

12.6. FX-CAN Settings
The FX-CAN board is an ARL-700 peripheral that is used to collect up to 16 car calls and fulfill some of the features of the IBC-
S board. FX-CAN board can not be used with IBC-S, CPC or CPC-T. If the double doors on the same floor are opened
independently, this card can not be used (It sends the calls that received as AB door to the ARL-700.). Gray, binary, 7-segment
31, 32 and 02 signals can be received via this board. Inspection signals (500-501) can be connected to this card. It has speaker
output for gong and button sound. Output can be taken for emergency lighting with battery connection. Connection terminals for
magnetic switches (ML1-ML2 or liftsense) are available. It has relay outputs for car light, fan, door open and close (single door).
There are 10 programmable inputs on it that can be used for connection of photocell, overload, full load.
Two dip switch on the board is used to operate car indicators which have
different working type.
