Static Protection Guidelines
IMPORTANT! Read this page before working with electronic circuit boards.
Elevator control systems use a number of electronic cards to control various functions of the
elevator. These cards have components that are extremely sensitive to static electricity and are
susceptible to damage by static discharge.
Immediate and long-term operation of an electronic-based system depends upon the proper
handling and shipping of its cards. For this reason, the factory bases warranty decisions on the
guidelines below.
Handling • Cards shipped from the factory in separate static bags must remain in the bags until time for
installation.
• Anti-static protection devices, such as wrist straps with ground wire, are required when
handling circuit boards.
• Cards must not be placed on any surface without adequate static protection.
• Only handle circuit cards by their edges, and only after discharging personal static electricity to
a grounding source. DO NOT touch the components or traces on the circuit card.
• Extra care must be taken when handling individual, discrete components such as EPROMS
(which do not have circuit card traces and components for suppression).
Shipping • Complete the included board discrepancy sheet.
• Any card returned to the factory must be packaged in a static bag designed for the card.
• Any card returned to the factory must be packaged in a shipping carton designed for the card.
• “Peanuts” and styrofoam are unacceptable packing materials.
Note: Refer to the
Vertical Express Replacement Parts Catalog
to order extra static bags and
shipping cartons for each card.
Failure to adhere to the above guidelines will VOID the card warranty!

HD-98 Door Operator with OST Overview
Printed in USA November, 2011 7
Overview
The following is a list of the major components of a door operator including a description of
their functions, an overview of some of the critical adjustments, and maintenance information.
See Figure 1 on page 8.
• Adjustable Arm - The arm mounted to the drive wheel is used to change the amount
of linear door movement or stroke.
• Connecting Arm - Connects the drive arm to the door panel.
• Door Operator Support - A metal plate welded to the header. The door operator is
mounted to the door operator support with four bolts through the four mounting slots of
the door operator.
• Drive Arm - The linkage connected between the drive arm support and the connecting
arm.
• Drive Arm Support - The bracket containing two holes is located on top of the door
operator. The drive arm should be connected to the right-hand hole, looking from the
hatch, at the front of the door operator.
• Drive Wheel - A metal sheave containing a slotted cam surface. The adjustable arm
mounts to the drive wheel and is adjusted in the slotted cam surface. The drive wheel is
driven by the jack shaft sheave using 3 V belts.
To change the linear door travel or stroke, move the adjustable arm:
• Closer to the center of the drive wheel = less door travel for the same amount of wheel
rotation.
• Further from the center of the drive wheel = more door travel for the same amount of
wheel rotation.
• Idler Arm - An adjustable arm mounted to the front of the door operator which controls the
tension of the 3 V belts between the jack shaft sheave and the drive wheel.
• Intermediate Arm - Adjustable linkage connected between the drive wheel adjustable arm
and the pivot arm. The connection at the pivot arm is adjustable to control the length of the
intermediate arm.
• Mechanical Stops - Metal L brackets mounted to the front of the door operator. The stops
have slots to adjust the amount of drive wheel rotation and, once positioned, they limit the
physical rotation of the drive wheel.
• Motor - 115V or 230V DC Motor
• Pivot Arm - Connects the drive arm to the intermediate arm and provides an adjustment
for the length of the intermediate arm.
• Sheave, Jack Shaft - A spoked sheave driven by the door operator motor with a single
V belt. The motor sheave drives the jack shaft sheave which drives the drive wheel.
• Sheave, Motor - A sheave attached directly to the door operator motor shaft.
• Support Strut - Unistrut legs on the rear of the door operator which are used to secure the
rear of the operator to the car top, and also to plumb the face of the drive wheel.

2. Slide the pivot arm to the end of the slot in the intermediate arm so that the hole in the bearing
is exposed.
3. Attach the pivot arm to the intermediate arm through the bearing with a 3/8" (10mm) flathead
socket cap screw.
Note: Ensure that the spacer plate is between the two arms, the bearing spacer is installed, and
that the doors are still in the Fully Open Position.
4. Align the drive arm and connecting arm in a straight line. Vice grips may be used to hold these
two arms in alignment.
5. Maintain the doors in Fully Open Position, and rotate the drive wheel until all three points A, B,
and C are in a straight line.
6. Tighten the two cap screws attaching the pivot arm to the intermediate arm.
7. Use a pencil to trace a line along both sides of the adjustable arm on the drive wheel.
Note: This will be the reference mark in the event that the stroke requires further adjustment.
8. Remove the vice grips and move the doors to the Fully Closed Position.
Note: If the doors will not fully close: loosen the two cap screws in the adjustable arm, and
reposition the arm toward the outside of the drive wheel in small increments of 1/8"
(3mm).
9. Measure the distance from the top of the intermediate arm to the center of the drive wheel. The
correct distance for this measurement is 1/2" (13mm) to 1 1/2" (38mm). Ensure that the doors
can be opened from the inside per local code. The smaller this diameter, the more difficult it will
be to pull the car doors open manually.
If the measurement is correct - Securely tighten the cap screws in the adjustable arm and the
cap screws connecting the intermediate arm to the pivot arm. Proceed to
Setting the Mechani-
cal Stops
.
If the measurement is less than 1/2" (13mm) - Loosen the two cap screws in the adjustable
arm. Reposition the arm toward the outside of the drive wheel and tighten the two cap screws.
If the measurement is more than 1 1/2" (38mm) - Loosen the two cap screws in the adjustable
arm. Reposition toward the center of the drive wheel and tighten the two cap screws.
a. Move the doors to the Fully Open Position, and check the alignment of the connecting arm
and the three points A, B, and C.
b. Move the doors to the Fully Closed Position, and measure the distance from the top of the
intermediate arm to the center of the drive wheel.
c. If these measurements are not correct, repeat the adjustment of the arm until the correct
operation and measurement is obtained.

Nudging Duty Notes:
• If there is a safety edge or photo-eye failure, the doors will run closed at nudging duty.
• If an electronic safety edge is used, the doors can operate at nudging duty on Fire Service.
• Front and rear doors must be adjusted separately; a force gauge is required for this procedure.
1. Use the OST and set adjustment D11=1 to enable the nudging option.
2. Set the nudging timer D19 to 10-15 seconds.
3. Set the door watchdog timer to 600 (60 seconds).
• D20 for front doors.
• D21 for rear doors (this prevents a door reopen from a watchdog failure).
4. Use the door open push button in the car to open the doors, and then place a car call away
from the present position of the car. Use the safety edge to prevent the doors from closing.
5. When nudging operation starts, use the force gauge to stall the doors in mid-travel, and note
the reading. See Figure 8 for safe operation of the force gauge.
Figure 8 - Safe Operation of the Door Gauge
6. Modify the nudging duty (E21), until the reading on the gauge matches, or is less than, the
maximum force allowed by National, State, or Local code.
7. Set D20 and D21 to their original values, and set D11 and D19 per the job contract option
requirements.
8. Use the OST to issue the WRT Command.

Final Door Adjustments
The door operator is now set up to operate using the factory preset values. If additional adjust-
ments are needed, see the following:
• “Open Adjustments Procedure” on page 18
• “Close Adjustments Procedure” on page 19
• “Door Adjustment Diagrams” on page 21
Notes:
• While making door adjustments, it is sometimes useful to put the doors in continuous
cycle mode with door adjustment E23=1.
• Saving door adjustments takes the doors out of continuous cycle mode.
Open Adjustments Procedure
To avoid mechanical damage to the doors when increasing Open and Close High
Speed, do NOT make drastic changes.
1. E04 (Open High Speed) - Change the E04 value to a value that gives the desired high speed.
Open high speed increases as the E04 value is increased.
2. E05 (Slowdown Deceleration Rate) - Change E05 to a value that gives the desired slowdown
rate from high speed to manual speed.
3. E06 (Manual Open Speed) - Change E06 to reduce the manual speed to a level that causes the
doors to stall when the open deceleration is complete.
4. E08 (Open Slowdown Distance) - Change E08 to a value that allows the doors to stall
about 1/2” from the open position when E06 (Open Manual Speed) is adjusted to 1.
Notes:
• If the slowdown distance is set too low, there will not be enough slowdown distance for the
doors to stop before the door open limit is reached. The open slowdown distance
increases as the E08 value is increased.
• After the doors have stalled, the manual open speed must be increased to allow the doors
to run to the door open limit. After making a slowdown adjustment, the manual adjust-
ment speed can be returned to 1 in order to verify that the doors will stall about 1/2” from
the jamb.
5. E06 (Manual Open Speed) - Change E06 to a value that allows the doors to move quickly but
smoothly into the door open limit. Manual open speed increases as the E06 value is increased.
6. E09 (Backlash Speed) - Change E09 to a level which allows the clutch to smoothly engage the
interlock prior to the door beginning its acceleration to high speed. The backlash speed
increases as the working value is increased.
7. E10 (Backlash Timer) - Change E10 to a level which allows the clutch to engage the interlock
prior to the door beginning its acceleration to high speed. Backlash time increases as the E10
value is increased.
8. E07 (Acceleration Rate To Open High Speed) - Change E07 to a value that allows the door to
move smoothly but rapidly to high speed. The acceleration rate increases as the E07 value is
increased.
