0. Preliminary
The main board of the lift controller MLC 8000 exists in 2 different versions:
- HSE board with integrated safety circuit and socket for modem or Ethernet interface
- MCU board without integrated safety circuit
The two boards also differ from each other in the external form; the functioning and
integrated application are still largely identical.
Depending on the main board used the name of the other boards differ from each other ,as
well as some specific control switches.
Mainly the board HSE is used, so that the present description relates also to this board.
Basically, the present description is also applicable to control systems in which the MCU
board is used.
Following is a list with the various names by the HSE or MCU:

1. Introduction
1.1 Operation of the Lift Controller MLC 8000 and Parameter Input
The operation of the lift controller MLC 8000 can be handled either from the keypad and LCD
display located on the HSE, or with a mobile handheld terminal DSE.
HSE and handheld terminal have an LCD display with 16 * 4 characters and a keypad using
the following keys:
- Number keys 0 to 9
- Cursor keys ↑and ↓
- ENTER key ↵
- ESC key
The handling of the HSE and the handheld terminal is very simple. With the cursor keys ↑
and ↓a menu item in the LCD display can be selected. Pressing ENTER ↵the selected
menu item starts. Either a function is activated or a submenu is called.
With the ESC key a function may be terminated or you can leave a submenu.
The entire menu structure is described in more detail in the section "Menu structure".
The handheld terminal DSE is connected via the CAN bus to the lift controller and can be
inserted and withdrawn during operation. Currently located on both the HSE and on the FVE
appropriate connectors. Additionally, it is possible to insert at any point corresponding
adapters on both the control bus and on the shaft bus.
After connecting the hand-held terminal to the lift controller first following display appears
(example):
** INTEC GmbH **
Lift controller
Connect to HSE
1 2 3
If the handheld terminal was connected to the control bus (e.g. FVE), then only the number 1
is displayed on the bottom line. Pressing ENTER ↵the connection is made to the lift
controller. Further operation of the hand-held terminal is then identical to the operation of the
HSE.
If the hand-held terminal was connected into the shaft bus of an lift group, then the group
numbers of all HSE modules will appear within the group. By pressing the corresponding
number button it can be selected, with which lift of the group the connection has to be done
(by pressing ENTER ↵always the lift 1 is selected).
If, after you connect the handheld terminal, in the bottom line no number appears, then the
CAN data transmission between handheld terminal and lift controller is disturbed.
If the CAN connection gets disturbed while working with the handheld terminal, then following
display appears on the LCD screen of the handheld terminal :

Continue with
any key!
By pressing ENTER ↵, the connection, if possible, can be reestablished.
1.2 Keyboard commands
For experienced users, there is next to the menu the so called keyboard commands used in
the operation of the lift controller, where a lot of time can be saved.
Certain functions or menu items can be selected by pressing the keyboard commands
directly, by passing the menu structure.
Each keyboard command consists of a sequence of digits that are acknowledged by
pressing the ENTER key ↵. The time interval between 2 consecutive keys must not be
greater than 3 seconds, otherwise the previously operated keys are invalid and the key
command must be started from the beginning. Operated key will be shown in the LCD
display on the bottom left
The keyboard commands can be used anytime, regardless of what is shown on the LCD
display of the lift controller or the hand-held terminal.
Only in a few menu items or functions the keyboard commands are disabled, for example, in
the menus "Travel commands" and "Door commands" or the "Hardware test".
The following table lists all the keyboard commands .

1.3 Password protection (Code)
The lift controller MLC 8000 has a two-stage access protection (code number). If access
protection is enabled, then when you start the menu structure (pressing ENTER ↵) you will
be asked to enter a numeric code.
Within the control 2 different access codes (Menu code, parameter code) can be stored.
These can be activated, changed or disabled (by setting the codes to 0) in the menu item
"Change password".
After entering a valid password access for 15 minutes is enabled, then the access is blocked
again and the State display 1 (main screen) is displayed.
The access time of 15 minutes starts again when:
- a key is pressed on the HSE or the hand-held terminal
- the lift is in "Teach in mode"
- The menu item "Travel commands" was started
- The menu item "Door command" was launched
- The menu item "Basic settings" was started
1.3.1 Menu code
If the menu code is activated, the menu structure can only get started if the corresponding
code has been entered.
1.3.2 Parameter code
If the parameter code is activated, the following actions can be performed only when the
appropriate code has been entered:
- Changing parameters
- Teach-in trip
- Door movements with keyboard
- Drive movement on keyboard
- Basic settings
- Group synchronization
1.3.3 Exceptions
Regardless of the preset or entered code following actions can always be carried out:
- Display of state images
- Input of calls over short commands
- Start menu "Technical check" with short command 490 ↵

1.4 Hardware encoding
Upon customer request all control modules can be fitted with a custom specific coding. Only
modules with identical hardware encoding can work together in an lift controller. Thus, if, for
example, a TSE board was connected with other hardware encoding of such the system, this
module will be "ignored" completely (it appears the error message "Wrong Code TSE xxx" in
the error stack HSE).
In the default state, the entire system is unprotected and control modules can be freely
interchanged.

This value is set to "Yes" if setup is completed. As long as this value
is set to "No", all position values are invalid and the lift does not
handle trips (only electrical recall operation and inspection possible)
Push control
If set to "Yes" lift is working as a "Push control", ie, the lift only goes
as long as special pushs are pressed (also called Deadman control).
Note: As of version 1.36m HSE, this parameter is in the submenu
"special parameters" - "Push control "
Call config.
If set to "Yes" special "call tables" (see "Special parameter") are
activated. If the lift arrives a floor by a landing call, only car calls
enabled for this landing call ("Call table" will be handled.
A maximum of 5 different call configurations can be set. Switching
between the Call configurations occurs only when all doors are closed
and (if available), the presence sensor signals "Car empty" signals
that no one is inside the car anymore.
In principle, up to 5 "logical" lifts can be created for one "real" lift , in
which only floors or entrances within this "logic" lift can be
approached.

Description
The function can be activated by this parameter as well as with an
input ("Special function" - "Call configuration").
Doors locked
By setting "Yes" never 2 car doors open at the same time.
Note: Inside the menu item "Special parameters" it is possible to
select, whether the "door lock" is also active in the various Special
drive modus .
Ref.run speed
Choice of driving speed for reference run to the SGE magnet or the
prelimit switch

Last floor before reference switch SGE when driving in the upward
direction (= floor below the reset switch)

Last floor in upward direction before top prelimit switch VO
Ref. floor

Last floor in downward direction before bottom prelimit switch VU
Diving
Behavior of the lift when the car is between 2 floors (eg after switching
on, after a failure, etc.):
VO / VU: The lift always moves to one of the prelimit switches (VO/VU).
Next Floor: The lift always travels to the nearest floor
Pos.type
Type of positioning:
- CAN Encoder: (Incremental encoder with CAN interface)
- Encoder (Encoder mechanical connected to car).
This setting must also be selected if the motor encoder is used for the
position, but the door zone is not additionally monitored by "real"
door zone switch SGO / SGU
- Motor encoder (using the motor encoder; always in connection with
"real" door zone switches SGO / SGU)
- Switch (position via a magnetic switchs)
- Absolute (Absolut encoder
- Double-AWG (Double absolute encoder for driving with open doors
without any additional magnetic switch)
- Limax Safe: Special absolute encoder with integrated safety
functions (e.g. replacement of final limit switchs)
Adv.door op.
Advanced door opening (door opening while lift is arriving) (yes/no)
v Adv.door
Speed limit to open door if lift is arriving (advanced door opening)
Pos.Adv.door

Description
- reopen: re-opens the door if new landing call is pressed
- ignore: if the lift already starts door closing while the new landing
call was presses the lift controller will continue closing the door and
handle this call later
- other lift (only for group of lifts): If a new landing call is pressed
another lift of the group will go to this floor even if there is alrady a lift
with open doors located in this floor
Vane length
Length of the door zone (area where the door zone switch SGM is
turned on)
Only if this parameter is entered correctly, the control values can
specify in mm or mm/s (the lift controller calculates the relation
between resolution of incremental encoder and "real length in mm)
If the vane length is not identical in all floors, the vane langth on the
2nd floor length must be entered here.
Cl.calls[mm]
Distance in mm from the target floor, in which the calls for this floor
will be cleared (lamp off). When set to "0", the calls are cleared in the
moment the lift starts slowing down
(Note: Clearing a call before the lift slows down is not possible.)
Level zone ↑
Position in mm above floor level where the lift starts re-levelling (only
if parameter "Relevelling" is set to "yes")
Note: When positioning via the motor encoder and magnetic
switches the leveling zone is formed by the switch SGO / SGU. This
parameter is of no significance in this case.
Level zone ↓
See above; position below floor level
Incr./m
Resolution of position encoder related to travel distance in mm.
This parameter is automatic calculated during set-up trip (setting of
parameter "Vane length" - see above - must be correct!)
If the lift has only 2 floors this parameter must be calculated and set
manually.
v nominal
Rated speed ( for speed monitoring)
v relevel
Relevelling speed ( for speed monitoring)
v brake
For manual evacuation through brake opening via UPS in case of
power failure (machine room-less lifts): Upon reaching this speed the
control allows the mechanical brake to come up again ("interval
braking" for speed limit)
Top limit
Distance of the upper final limit switch above top floor. This parameter
is used exclusively for the detection of errors if the lift is on the top
floor and the primary safety circuit (SL1) fails. If the lift is above this

position, it detects error "SL final limit"; otherwise at fault "SK
missing". This parameter is used for hydraulic lift, which has to stop
operation if the lift was at top final limit.
Bot.limit
See above; position of bottom limit switch
SL door test
If set to "Yes", according to EN81-20 the shaft door safety circuit is
checked after each trip (if the doors are completely openend).
For this the safety unit for door zone bypass is activated for a short
time and so power is switched to safety circuit input SL4.
At the same time safety circuit input SL3 must not have power,
otherwise the safety circuit shaft door is defective or bypassed. In this
case the lift controller goes out of operation and sets the error
message " SL shaftdoor on".

For these parameters, values or text may be entered for informative
purposes.
Thus, for example, better assignment can be done when the parameter
set is stored on the PC.
