1 Introduction

1.1 About This Documentation

This technical description contains the basic structure and the potential settings for the

LiftXpress control system. You find out how you can integrate your own graphs into the terminal

display and we will show you an overview of current terminal views.

You can not only use this structure, but also the pictograms below to orient yourself for faster

navigating in the chapters.

Note

1.2 Brief Description

The LiftXpress control system records both the calling location and the destination of travel simultaneously

and forwards this information from each of the levels to the lift control system. All input/output terminals

(such as floor terminals, car terminals and porter terminals) including the interfaces to the lift control

system (Ethernet gateways) are linked to the LiftXpress server via Ethernet network. The terminals for call

destination input are equipped with graphic user guidance and designed as touchscreens.

Using the LiftXpress control system:

boosts the lift’s transport performance

means no other inputs have to be keyed in the car

allows floor-dependent specifications to be integrated into laying out and displaying call input

of the left-hand footer position 295 x 96 logo_lu.bmp

of the right-hand footer position 450 x 96 logo_ru.bmp

Directory of graphs*:

for customer graphs: [drive]:\Program Files\Kollmorgen\VisualFloor\Data\Skin\UserImg

for standard graphs: [drive]:\Program Files\Kollmorgen\VisualFloor\Data\Skin\klnlogo

NOTES

*The above filenames, the directory and the format (BMP) of graphs are obligatory.

Please remember that freely selectable graphs are only available from a panel resolution of 800 x 600

pixels.

The program generates automatically the frames of the graphics. The type and the colour of the frames

are not changeable.

If no graphics are preset, the area in the display gets the background colour.

The routines below describe how you can integrate your own graphs or shield other graphs.

LiftXpress


21.08.2012 13

Show customer graphs in all terminals:

Use one of the designations:

<<logo_lo.bmp>> (display position: top left)

<<logo_lu.bmp>> (display position: bottom left)

<<logo_ru.bmp>> (display position: bottom right)

for your graph file in accordance with the later display position. Then store this graph in the directory:

<<[Drive]:\program files\Kollmorgen\VisualFloor\Data\Skin\UserImg>>

Example

You want your customer graph to appear at the left-hand header position on all levels. Store your graph

under the filename <<logo_lo.bmp>> in the above directory.

Show level-dependent graphs in the level terminals:

Use one of the designations <<logo_lo.bmp>>, <<logo_lu.bmp>> or <<logo_ru.bmp>> for your graph

file in accordance with the later display position and supplement the level designation in the filename:

<<logo_lo_[Level name].bmp>>

<<logo_lu_[Level name].bmp>>

<<logo_ru_[Level name].bmp>>

Store these graphs in the directory:


Example

You only want your graph to appear at the left-hand footer position on level 19. Store your graph under

the filename <<logo_lu_19.bmp>> in the above directory.

LiftXpress


14 21.08.2012

Show control-dependent graphs in the car terminal:

Use one of the designations <<logo_lo.bmp>>, <<logo_lu.bmp>> or <<logo_ru.bmp>> for your graph

file in accordance with the later display position and supplement the control designation in the filename:

<<logo_lo_[Controller name].bmp>>

<<logo_lu_[Controller name].bmp>>

<<logo_ru_[Controller name].bmp>>



Example

You want your graph to appear at the left-hand footer position in the car of the control system named

<<Lift1>>. Store your graph under the filename <<logo_lu_Lift1.bmp>> in the above directory.

Shield graphs:

You need a graph file to be able to shield graphs. For instance, you can recreate this file at the size of 1

x 1 pixels or also use an already existing file.

Select one of the designations <<logo_lo…>>, <<logo_lu…>> or <<logo_ru...>> in accordance with the

position in the display that is not supposed to output a graph and add the prefix <<no_>> to the

filename:

<<no_logo_lo.bmp>>, …

<<no_logo_lo_[Level name].bmp>>, …

<<no_logo_lo_[Controller name].bmp>>, …

The range of the <<no_logo_...>> file is filled with the background colour.

Note: Graph files with the <<no_>> prefix have maximum priority in the display.



Examples

You do not want a graph to appear at the left-hand header position in any level. Store your graph under

the filename <<no_logo_lo.bmp>> in the above directory.

You do not want a graph to appear at the left-hand footer position on level 19. Store your graph under

the filename <<no_logo_lu_19.bmp>> in the above directory.

You do not want a graph to appear at the left-hand footer position in the car of the control system with

the name <<Lift1>>. Store your graph under the filename <<no_logo_lu_Lift1.bmp>> in the above

directory.

Notes

These specifications on the graphs are binding:

the filename: <<background…>>

the storage location: [Drive]:\program files\Kollmorgen\VisualFloor\Data\UsrImg

the format: PNG

The graph’s starting position is always the lower left-hand corner of the display.

The maximum size of the graph indicates the display used, such as 600 x 800 or 800 x 600.

The subsequent routines and examples describe how you can integrate your own graphs.

Showing a customer graph on all terminals:

Use the designation <<background.png>> for your graph file.

Store this graph in the directory: <<[Drive]:\program files\Kollmorgen\VisualFloor\Data\UsrImg>>

LiftXpress

Showing graphs depending upon terminals:

Use the following designation for your graph file:

<<background_[terminal name].png>>

Store these graphs in the directory: <<[Drive]:\program files\Kollmorgen\VisualFloor\Data\UsrImg>>

For example

Various background graphs appear in the terminals of floors 1-3 and in the car terminals of lifts 1 and 2.

The terminals in floors 4 and 5 show the same background graph.

Terminal name 1. floor: VF-47110-1-1-1 Terminal name 5. floor: VF-47110-1-5-1

Terminal name 2. floor: VF-47110-1-2-1 Terminal name car Lift1: VF-47110-C1

Terminal name 3. floor: VF-47110-1-3-1 Terminal name car Lift2: VF-47110-C2

Terminal name 4. floor: VF-47110-1-4-1

Finally, the directory <<[Drive]:\program files\Kollmorgen\VisualFloor\Data\UsrImg>> has to include the

following files:

<<background_VF-47110-1-1-1.png>> <<background_VF-47110-1-5-1.png>>*

<<background_VF-47110-1-2-1.png>> <<background_VF-47110-C1.png>>

<<background_VF-47110-1-3-1.png>> <<background_VF-47110-C2.png>>

<<background_VF-47110-1-4-1.png>>*

5.2 The <<Barrier-Free Access for the Visually Handicapped>> Function

Note

This function is only available in the <<Classic>> view.

This function provides visually handicapped persons barrier-free access for using the lift. The user starts

the function manually with a special button on the housing of the terminal in the floor.

The representation of user information uses especially large characters. In addition, an announcement

supports the comprehensibility of all information shown. You can adapt the volume of the announcement

with <<VFAccess>> user administration (refer to Chapter 6).

The process of keying in the command:

User Inputs Reaction

You press the button for the first

time.

The normal display is deleted and the information is issued for further use.

Note: If you want to continue directly with the command input,

you can cancel issuing this general information for operation

by pressing the button again.

2. You press the button again and hold the button down.

This runs through all of the target floors with the exception of

the floor that the user is on.

3. You release the button. The target floor displayed is ready for a command input.*

4. You press the button again. The command input for the target floor displayed has been confirmed. The lift processing the command is issued.

If the user does not key in anything else, the function turns off automatically after a waiting period.

Note: You can cancel the announcement that the function has

been terminated by pressing the button again.

General routine for compiling the audio files:

1. Set up a folder under <<[Drive]:\program files\Kollmorgen\VisualFloor\Data\>> designated <<Audio>>.

2. Regardless of the language desired, set up a folder in the <<Audio>> folder designated <<de>> for

announcements in German or a folder designated <<en>> for announcements in English.

3. Copy all audio files needed from the directory in the desired language under <<[Drive]:\program

files\Kollmorgen\VisualFloor\Data\Templates\Audio\...>> in the new folder set up in step 2.

Notes

Take the aforementioned steps to supplement the audio files provided at the factory or replace them

with your own announcements. If you replace existing audio files with your own announcements, always

remember only to use the specified filenames and comply with the format specifications for the audio

files.

You can not only specify the standard announcements of the <<door[0,1].wav>> door sides that issue

the same text on all floors, but also announcements for specific floors for door side 1 and/or door side 2.

To use this functionality, you have to:

store every announcement in a file under any name in the folder

<<... Data\Audio\[de,en]>> and

assign these files to the floors and door sides in the <<Audiofiles.xml>> configuration

file.

Example 2 describes how you set up announcements for specific floors for door sides.

Examples of compiling audio files:

Example 1 – specifications for compiling the audio files:

group with 3 lifts

5 floors

door side 1 and door side 2 with standard text announcements on all floors

German announcements

The <<Audio\en>> folders are set up under <<[Drive]:\program

files\Kollmorgen\VisualFloor\Data\>>.

How to proceed:

1. Copy the following audio files from the <<en>> folder under <<[Drive]:\program

files\Kollmorgen\VisualFloor\Data\Templates\Audio>> into the

<<en>> folder under <<[Drive]:\program files\Kollmorgen\VisualFloor\Data\Audio>>:

<<ddaseldoor.wav>> <<lift[1].wav>>, …, <<lift[3].wav>>

<<ddaend.wav>> <<volup.wav>>

<<uselift.wav>> <<voldown.wav>>

*The door side announcements are the same on all floors.

Example 2 – How to compile the audio files:

group with 3 lifts

5 floors

door side 1 and door side 2 with standard text announcements on floors 3-5

door side 1 and door side 2 with announcements for specific floors on floors 1 and 2

German announcements

The <<Audio\en>> folders are set up under <<[Drive]:\program

files\Kollmorgen\VisualFloor\Data\>>.

How to proceed:

1. Create the 4 audio files for door side announcements for specific floors (you can select

any filenames). Store these files in the <<en>> folder under <<[Drive]:\program

files\Kollmorgen\VisualFloor\Data\Audio>>.

Here is an example:

floor 1: door1-floor1.wav, door2-floor1.wav,

floor 2: door1-floor2.wav, door2-floor2.wav;

2. Copy the following audio files from the <<en>> folder under <<[Drive]:\program files

\Kollmorgen\VisualFloor\Data\Templates\Audio>> into the

<<en>> folder under <<[Drive]:\program files\Kollmorgen\VisualFloor\Data\Audio>>:

* The door side announcements are the same on floors 3-5.

3. Copy the <<Audiofiles.xml>> configuration file from the <<Templates>> folder under

<<[Drive]:\program files\Kollmorgen\VisualFloor\Data>> into the

<<Data>> folder under <<[Drive]:\program files\Kollmorgen\VisualFloor>>.

LiftXpress

6 VFAccess User Administration

You have <<VFAccess>> as an independent program for administrating access authorisation for users of

the LiftXpress system. You can select it as an option at system installation.

This program lets you set up users and assign them authorisation for using the LiftXpress system. There is

no limit to the number of users. Each user is given a 4-digit code number to log onto terminals. For

instance, you can decide that a user can only key in a call on specific levels to levels that are also preset

or you can request certain special trips.

Note

There are no active restrictions to access in standard settings. You can only use <<VFAccess>> when

users are set up and their access authorisation has also been set up.

9.1 Notes for Installing the LiftXpress Control System

The components of the LiftXpress control system:

MPK control system

Ethernet gateway

LiftXpress-Server

all terminals (floor, car, …)

Modem

are supplied preinstalled by the manufacturer.

The customer should provide an independent Ethernet network.

The LiftXpress control system may not be integrated into an existing Ethernet network.

The cables and all plug-and-socket connectors for the Ethernet network have to meet the specification

below:

LAN UTP / BS-H 200 MHz - CAT.7e flexible

Don’t exceed the max. cable length of 90 m.

The Ethernet network is based on star topology, branch lines are not permitted.

The voltage drop with long lines should be taken into consideration for the terminal voltage supply.

Don’t change the setting <<destination dispatch>> under <<basic settings / lift / control type>>. It is the

condition for a error free running of the lift group.

9.2 Notes for Maintenance the LiftXpress Control System

Do not update the server operation system without a release of the Kollmorgen Steuerungstechnik

GmbH, Cologne. A unauthorised update can set the LiftXpress system out of order!

Exchange faulty system components only for original components. Only the original components

contain the special settings for your system!
