 1 About this document Lift Control Valve iValve

1 About this document

The parametrisation and maintenance manual is used during commis­
sioning to adjust the lift-control valve, type i250 / i500 iValve, and the
iCon electronic card. It is also used after installation in the event of es­
sential alterations.

1.1 Scope
This manual is:
S a part of the iValve lift-control valve / iCon for parametrisation and
maintenance
S applicable to the iValve and related components such as the
Handterminal and iWIN

1.2 Target group

This parametrisation and maintenance manual provides commissioning
personnel and service technicians with all the information required for
parametrisation.

press – key
S Set parameter to maximum value: keep + key pressed, then press
↑key
S Set parameter to minimum value: keep –key pressed, then press
↓key
S With ↑ or ↓ key, save the value and return to parameter selection
S With keys 1, 2, 3 or 4, do not save the value and return to menu
mode
Note: In order to quit menu mode:
S Either press keys ↑ and ↓ simultaneously (changes to the currently
displayed parameter are saved)
S Unplug cable and wait for about 3seconds (changes to the
currently displayed parameter are NOT saved)
S For the change language option, use key 2

2.1.2 Password
The iCons parameterd and special functions can be password-
protected. There are two password levels, level1 and level2, which can
be logged in. The passwords for the two levels consist of four digits
each.
Factory setting for level1: 0000
Factory setting for level2: 1930
Login on level1 is required to modify parameters and to execute certain
functions.
Password “0000” for level1 means: no password protection (login on
level1 always active).
Login on level2 is only required for very rarely used service functions.
If a password is set and the user is currently logged in the display will
read 1: Logout .
+ execute

Setting/changing a password (level1)

If a different soft-stop distance is required or set the parameter “Soft-
stop” shall be adjusted accordingly (0mm=Softstop=Off).
See Chapter 3.2
In this case the soft-stop switches shall be positioned with the corre­
spondent distance away from the landing. Furthermore it must be made
sure, that the contactors drop out with sufficient delay, so that the soft
stop distance can be travelled.
