mrmattandmrchay | 1970s 'EXPRESS LIFT' motor room (£90 FOR A MANUAL!!??) @mrmattandmrchay | Uploaded February 2018 | Updated October 2024, 2 hours ago.
"NO FAT LIFT ENGINEERS" Part 2.
Regarding the electronic floor selector, it's programming is probably quite simple:
The programming buttons at the top probably SELECT TOP FLOOR, and SELECT BOTTOM FLOOR:
1) This prevents the floor selector selecting a floor that doesn't exist.
2) When the TOP or BOTTOM lift shaft limit switch inputs are activated, the floor selector will always return to the correct floor if it goes 'out of step'.
This floor selector has terminals which match the mechanic selector. Therefore, providing the engineer takes things easy and doesn't rush into it, the swap over should be relatively simple!

I would still love to get my hands on one of these manuals and I don't fancy paying £90, so if anyone has one then please get in touch, thanks :)
(I'll give you a mention in a future video)
