NICE3000new Integrated Elevator Controller User Manual-1 PDF

Preface
Thank you for purchasing the NICE3000new integrated elevator controller.

The NICE3000new is a new-generation integrated elevator controller independently
developed by Suzhou MONARCH Control Technology Co., Ltd., by optimizing the
NICE3000 controller based on a large number of applications and combining new
industrial features.
The NICE3000new has the following advantages:
1) It supports high-performance vector control and open-loop low speed running. It can
drive both asynchronous motor and permanent magnetic synchronous motor (PMSM),
and implement switchover between the two types of motors easily by modifying only
one parameter.
2) It supports direct parallel connection of two elevators and supports the CANbus and
Modbus communication protocols for remote monitoring, which reduces the required
quantity of travling cables.
3) It supports a maximum of 40 floors and is widely applied to elevators used in the
residence, office buildings, shopping centers, and hospitals.
This manual describes the correct use of the NICE3000new, including product features,
safety information and precautions, installation, parameter setting, commissioning, and
maintenance & inspection. Read and understand the manual before using the product,
and keep it carefully for future maintenance.
The personnel who involve in system installation, commissioning, and maintenance must
receive necessary safety and use training, understand this manual thoroughly, and have
related experience before performing operations.

are burnt. Treat them as ordinary industrial waste.
1.2 General Precautions

1. Requirement on the residual current device (RCD)
The AC drive generates high leakage current during running, which flows through the
protective earthing conductor. Thus install a type- B RCD at primary side of the power
supply. When selecting the RCD, you should consider the transient and steady-state
leakage current to ground that may be generated at startup and during running of the AC
drive. You can select a specialized RCD with the function of suppressing high harmonics
or a general-purpose RCD with relatively large residual current.
2. High leakage current warning
The controller generates high leakage current during running, which flows
through the protective earthing conductor. Earth connection must be done before
connection of power supply. Earthing shall comply with local regulations and related IEC
standards.
3. Motor insulation test
Perform the insulation test when the motor is used for the first time, or when it is reused
after being stored for a long time, or in a regular check-up, in order to prevent the poor
insulation of motor windings from damaging the controller. The motor must be
disconnected from the controller during the insulation test. A 500-V mega-Ohm meter is
recommended for the test. Ensure that the insulation resistance is not less than 5 M .
4. Thermal protection of the motor
If the rated capacity of the motor selected does not match that of the controller, especially
when the rated power of the controller is greater than that of the motor, adjust the motor
protection parameters on the operation panel of the controller or install a thermal relay for
the motor circuit for protection.
5. Motor heat and noise

The output of the controller is pulse width modulation (PWM) wave with certain harmonic
wave, and therefore, the motor temperature rise, noise, and vibration are slightly greater
than those at running with the power frequency (50 Hz).
6. Voltage-sensitive device or capacitor on the output side of the controller
The controller outputs PWM waves, and therefore, do not install the capacitor for
improving power factor or lightning protection voltage-sensitive resistor on the output side
of the controller. Otherwise, the controller may suffer transient overcurrent or even be
damaged.
7. Contactor on the input and output sides of the controller
When a contactor is installed between the input side of the controller and the power supply,
the controller must not be started or stopped by opening or closing the contactor. When a
contactor is installed between the output side of the controller and the motor, do not open
or close the contactor when the controller has output. Otherwise, modules inside the
controller may be damaged.
8. Use outside the rated voltage
The controller must not be used outside the allowable voltage range specified in this
manual. Otherwise, components inside the controller may be damaged. If required, use a
corresponding voltage step-up or step-down device.
9. Surge suppressor
The controller has a built-in voltage dependent resistor (VDR) for suppressing the surge
voltage generated when the inductive loads (electromagnetic contactor, electromagnetic
relay, solenoid valve, electromagnetic coil and electromagnetic brake) around the
controller are switched on or off. If the inductive loads generate very high surge voltage,
use a surge suppressor for the inductive load or also use a diode.
Do not connect the surge suppressor on the output side of the controller.
10. Altitude and de-rating
In places where the altitude is above 1000 m and the cooling effect reduces due to thin air,
it is necessary to de-rate the controller. Contact Monarch for technical support.
11. Adaptable motor
The controller is adaptable to squirrel-cage asynchronous motor or AC PMSM. Select a

proper controller according to motor nameplate.
The default parameters configured inside the controller are squirrel-cage asynchronous
motor parameters. It is still necessary to perform motor auto-tuning or modify the default
values based on actual conditions. Otherwise, the running effect and protection
performance will be affected. For PMSM, motor auto-tuning must be performed.
12. Precautions on selecting residual-current circuit breaker (RCCB)
Tripping may be caused if an improper RCCB is selected when the controller drives the
motor. This is because the output wave of the controller has high harmonics and the motor
cable and the cable connecting the controller and the motor produce leakage current,
which is much larger than the current when the motor runs at power frequency (50 Hz).
Thus, it is necessary to determine the proper RCCB sensitivity based on the general
leakage current of the cables and the motor. The leakage current is dependent on the
motor capacity, cable length, insulation class and wiring method. Generally, the leakage
current on the output side of the controller is three times of the current when the motor
runs at power frequency (50 Hz).
1.3 Protective Functions

Adopting different protective functions for different levels of faults, the NICE3000new
provides the elevator running system with full abnormality protection. For detailed
solutions to the faults, see chapter 8.
Faults of the controller are classified as follows:

1) Speed abnormal
The controller monitors the encoder feedback speed and output torque. Once the
feedback speed exceeds the limit or the deviation between the torque limit and the
speed feedback is too large, the controller performs protection immediately, reports
an alarm and prohibits running.
2) Drive control abnormal
The related faults include drive overcurrent, overvoltage/undervoltage, power
input/output phase loss, overload, and storage abnormality. If such a fault occurs, the
controller performs protection immediately, stops output, applies the brake and
prohibits running.
3) Encoder abnormal
The related faults include encoder phase loss, direction reversing, wire-breaking, and
pulse interference. If such a fault occurs, the controller performs protection
immediately to avoid unexpected accidents. If pulse interference is large, the
controller reports an alarm immediately. If pulse interference is small, the controller
performs position correction every time it receives a leveling signal and clears the
accumulative error.
4) Leveling sensor abnormal
The related faults include sensor failure or sensor stuck. The controller judges
whether a fault occurs based on the leveling signal change. If the leveling signal does
not change within the set time, the system reports an alarm.
5) Floor data abnormal
The system stores the floor information through the shaft auto-tuning. If the floor data
is abnormal, the system prompts the fault information at the first-time running. During
actual running, the controller continuously compares position information input by DIs
with the stored floor data. If the deviation is large, the system reports an alarm.

2.1 System Configuration of the NICE3000new

The NICE3000new series integrated elevator control system combines the functions of
both elevator controller and the high-performance vector controller. It mainly includes the
integrated elevator controller, car top board (MCTC-CTB), hall call board (MCTC-HCB),
car call board (MCTC-CCB), and optional door pre-open module, and remote monitoring
system.
The following figure shows the system components.
Figure 2-1 System components of the NICE3000new
1. It controls the motor based on feedback signals from the encoder, and records
information of all position switches in the shaft by pulse, implementing accurate
leveling and direct travel ride and guaranteeing running safety.
2. It implements information collection and control of car-related components by means
of CANbus communication with the MCTC-CTB.
3. It registers and displays hall calls of all floors with easy address setting by means of
Modbus communication with the MCTC-HCB.

1. The preceding configuration takes the synchronous motor as an example. The asynchronous motor
has poor energy transfer efficiency, and you can reduce the power of the braking resistor or increase the
resistance of the braking resistor.
2. It is recommended that you select the braking resistor closest to the maximum resistance.

The NICE3000new is installed vertically upward on the support with screws fixed into the four
mounting holes, as shown in the following figure.
Figure 3-2 Diagram of mounting holes
The controller is generally installed in the control cabinet of the elevator equipment room.
Pay attention to the following points when designing the control cabinet:
1. The temperature inside the cabinet must not rise to 10°C higher than the temperature
outside the cabinet.
2. A closed control cabinet must be configured with a fan (or other air cooling device such
as air conditioner) to ensure air circulation.
3. The air from the fan must not blow directly to the drive unit because this easily causes
dust adhesion and further a fault on the drive unit.
4. A vent must be available at bottom of the control cabinet to form bottom-up air flow,
which prevents heat island effect on the surface of components or partial thermal
conductivity effect.
5. If the fan cannot meet the cooling requirements, install an air conditioner in the cabinet
or in the equipment room. Note that the temperature inside the cabinet must not be too
low; otherwise, condensation may occur, causing short-circuit of components.
6. For special environment where the temperature is high but cannot be reduced
effectively, de-rate the controller during use.

Precautions about wiring of the main circuit terminals are as follows:
l Select the braking resistor according to the recommended values in the braking
resistor selection table.
l The circuit on the output side must not be short-circuited or grounded.
l U, V, W cables of the controller must pass through the grounding metal pipe and be
laid separately or vertically with the control circuit signal cable.
l If the motor cable is too long, electrical resonance will be generated due to the impact
of distributed capacitance, thus damaging the motor insulation or generating higher
leakage current, causing the controller to trip in overcurrent protection.
l The requirements for the grounding cable are as follows:
1) The impedance of the PE conductor/cable must be cable to bear the probable
maximum short-circuit current when a fault occurs.
2) Select the size of the PE conductor according to the following table.

The MCTC-PG card is connected to the controller and the encoder as follows:
The J1 terminal and CN1 terminal of the MCTC-PG card are respectively connected to the
J12 terminal of the MCB on the controller and the encoder of the motor.
Different MCTC-PG card models are connected to the MCB in the same way. The
connection method to the encoder depends on the CN1 terminal of the model.
The following figure shows the wiring between MCTC-PG-E and the controller.

3.5.3 Precautions on Connecting the MCTC-PG Card

1) The cable from the MCTC-PG card to the encoder must be separated from the cables
of the control circuit and the power circuit. Parallel cabling in close distance is
forbidden.
2) The cable from the MCTC-PG card to the encoder must be a shielded cable. The
shield must be connected to the PE on the controller side. To minimize interference,
single-end grounding is suggested.
3) The cable from the MCTC-PG card to the encoder must run through the duct
separately and the metal shell is reliably grounded.
3.5.4 Selection of Adaptable Motor
The main counters of the electrical relationship between the controller and the motor are
voltage and current.
1) In general elevator applications, the input mains voltage is 380 V, and the motor
voltage can only be equal to or smaller than 380 V. Thus, when selecting the
NICE3000new, you can take only the current of the motor into consideration.
2) When the NICE3000new is designed, large safety allowance is reserved for the main
power module. The controller can run properly within 1.1 times of the nominal output
current. During stable running, the maximum output torque is 150% of the rated
torque and can reach up to 200% of the rated torque for a short time.
Therefore, for the motor with the rated voltage of 380 V, you can select the controller of
the same power class. As long as the rated current of the motor is smaller than 1.1 times
of the output current of the controller, the controller of the same power class can also be
used.
Generally speaking, when selecting an adaptable motor, ensure that the rated current of
the motor is equal to or smaller than the output current of the controller. For technical
specifications of the controller, see section 2.3.
3.6 Selection of Peripheral Electrical Devices
3.6.1 Description of Peripheral Electrical Devices
1) Do not install the capacitor or surge suppressor on the output side of the controller.
Otherwise, it may cause faults to the controller or damage to the capacitor and surge
suppressor.
2) Inputs/Outputs (main circuit) of the controller contain harmonics, which may interfere
with the communication device connected to the controller. Therefore, install an
anti-interference filter to minimize the interference.
3) Select the peripheral devices based on actual applications as well as by referring to

section 3.6.2.
The following table describes the peripheral electrical devices.

To prevent the strong power from interfering with the weak power, the strong-power cables must be
separated from the weak-power cables during cabling in the shaft. Grounding cables must be used to
separate strong-power and weak-power traveling cables. "Strong power" refers to the voltage of 36 V and
above.

3.8 Installation of Shaft Position Signals
In elevator control, to implement landing accurately and running safely, car position needs
to be identified based on shaft position signals.
These shaft position signals include the leveling switches, up/down slow-down switches,
up/down limit switches, and up/down final limit switches.
These shaft position signals are directly transmitted by the shaft cables to the MCB of the
controller. For the electrical wiring method, refer to Figure 3-22.
The following figure shows the arrangement of shaft position signals in the shaft.
Figure 3-23 Arrangement of shaft position signals
3.8.1 Installation of Leveling Signals
Leveling signals comprise the leveling switch and leveling plate and is directly connected
to the input terminal of the controller. It is used to enable the car to land at each floor
accurately.
The leveling switches are generally installed on the top of the car. The NICE3000new
system supports the installation of 1 3 leveling switches. The leveling plate is installed on
the guide rail in the shaft. A leveling plate needs to be installed at each floor. Ensure that
leveling plates at all floors are mounted with the same depth and verticality.
The following figure shows the installation of leveling signals

l When installing leveling plates, ensure that flags at all floors are mounted with the same depth and
verticality. Otherwise, the leveling accuracy will be affected. The recommended length of the flag is
80 200 mm.
l More leveling input signals need to be added if the door pre-open function is used. In this case, you
need to increase the length of the flag properly. For details on the door pre-open module, contact
Monarch or local agent.
3.8.2 Installation of Slow-Down Switches
The slow-down switch is one of the key protective components of the NICE3000new,
protecting the elevator from over travel top terminal or over travel bottom terminal at
maximum speed when the elevator position becomes abnormal.
The NICE3000new system supports a maximum of three pairs of slow-down switches. The
slow-down switch 1, slow-down switch 2 and slow-down switch 3 are installed from the
two ends of the shaft to the middle floor one by one. Generally, only one pair of slow-down
switches is required for the low-speed elevator. Two or three pairs of slow-down switches
are required for the high-speed elevator.
The slow-down distance L indicates the distance from the slow-down switch to the leveling
plate at the terminal floor. The calculating formula is as follows:
In the formula, L indicates the slow-down distance, V indicates the F0-04 (Rated elevator
speed), and F3-08 indicates the special deceleration rate.
The default value of F3-08 (Special deceleration rate) is 0.9 m/s2. The slow-down
distances calculated based on different rated elevator speeds are listed in the following
table:
Table 3-17 Slow-down distances based on different rated elevator speeds
Rated Elevator Speed V 1.5 m/s 1.5 m/s < V 2.4 m/s 2.4 m/s < V 3.7 m/s
Distance of slow-down 1 1.3 m to H/2 1.3 m 1.3 m
Distance of slow-down 2 - 3.2 m 3.2 m
Distance of slow-down 3 - - 8.0 m
l "H" in the table indicates the landing height. The slow-down 1 will reset the terminal
floor display, and the slow-down 1 switch needs to be installed within H/2.
l The slow-down distances above are calculated on the basis of the default values
(special deceleration rate 0.9 m/s2, and acceleration rate and deceleration rate 0.6
m/s2).
l Increasing the acceleration rate and deceleration rate or reducing the special
deceleration rate may bring safety hazard. If any change is need, re-calculate the
slow-down distance by using the above formula.
3.8.3 Installation of Limit Switches
The up limit switch and down limit switch is to protect the elevator from over travel
top/bottom terminal when the elevator does not stop at the leveling position of the terminal
floor.
l The up limit switch needs to be installed 30 50 mm away from the top leveling
position. The limit switch acts when the car continues to run upward 30 50 mm from
the top leveling position.
l The down limit switch needs to be installed 30 50 mm away from the bottom leveling
position. The limit switch acts when the car continues to run downward 30 50 mm
from the bottom leveling position.
3.8.4 Installation of Final Limit Switches
The final limit switch is to protect the elevator from over travel top/bottom terminal when
the elevator does not stop completely upon passing the up/down limit switch.
l The up final limit switch is mounted above the up limit switch. It is usually 150 mm
away from the top leveling position.
l The down final limit switch is mounted below the down limit switch. It is usually 150
mm away from the bottom leveling position.

4.2.3 Operation Procedure
The LED operation panel adopts three-level menu.

The three-level menu consists of function code group (Level I), function code (Level II),
and function code setting value (level III), as shown in the following figure.
Figure 4-4 Operation procedure on the operation panel
You can return to Level II menu from Level III menu by pressing or . The
difference between the two is as follows:
l After you press , the system saves the parameter setting first, and then goes
back to Level II menu and shifts to the next function code.
l After you press , the system does not save the parameter setting, but directly
returns to Level II menu and remains at the current function code.
The following figure shows the shift between the three levels of menus.
Figure 4-5 Shift between the three levels of menus
In Level III menu, if the parameter has no blinking digit, it means that the parameter
cannot be modified. This may be because:
l Such a parameter is only readable, such as actually detected parameters and

running record parameters.
l Such a parameter cannot be modified in the running state and can only be changed
at stop.
4.2.4 Viewing Status Parameters
In the stop or running state, the operation panel can display multiple status parameters.
Whether parameters are displayed is determined by the equivalent binary bits converted
from the values of FA-01 and FA-02.
In the stop state, a total of 12 parameters can be displayed circularly by pressing .

You can select the parameters to be displayed by setting FA-02 (each of the binary bits
converted from the value of FA-02 indicates a parameter).
Figure 4-6 Shift between parameters displayed in the stop state
In the running state, a total of 16 parameters can be displayed circularly by pressing .
You can select the parameters to be displayed by setting FA-01 (each of the binary bits
converted from the value of FA-02 indicates a parameter).

Chapter 5 System Commissioning and Application Example
5.1 System Commissioning
l Ensure that there is no person in the shaft or car before performing commissioning on the
elevator.
l Ensure that the peripheral circuit and mechanical installation are ready before performing
commissioning.
The following figure shows the commissioning procedure of the system.

Figure 5-1 Commissioning procedure of the system
5.1.1 Check Before Commissioning
The elevator needs to be commissioned after being installed; the correct commissioning
guarantees safe and normal running of the elevator. Before performing electric
commissioning, check whether the electrical part and mechanical part are ready for
commissioning to ensure safety.
At least two persons need to be onsite during commissioning so that the power supply can
be cut off immediately when an abnormality occurs.
1. Check the field mechanical and electric wiring.
Before power-on, check the peripheral wiring to ensure component and personal safety.
The items to be checked include:
1) Whether the component models are matched
2) Whether the safety circuit is conducted and reliable
3) Whether the door lock circuit is conducted and reliable
4) Whether the shaft is unobstructed, and the car has no passenger and meets the
conditions for safe running
5) Whether the cabinet and traction motor are well grounded
6) Whether the peripheral circuit is correctly wired according to the drawings of the
vendor
7) Whether all switches act reliably
8) Whether there is short-circuit to ground by checking the inter-phase resistance of the
main circuit
9) Whether the elevator is set to the inspection state
10) Whether the mechanical installation is complete (otherwise, it will result in equipment
damage and personal injury)
2. Check the encoder.
The pulse signal from the encoder is critical to accurate control of the system. Before
commissioning, check the following items carefully:
1) The encoder is installed reliably with correct wiring. For details on the encoder wiring,
see section 3.7.
2) The signal cable and strong-current circuit of the encoder are laid in different ducts to
prevent interference.
3) The encoder cable is preferably directly connected to the control cabinet. If the cable
is not long enough and an extension cable is required, the extension cable must be a
shielding cable and preferably welded to the original encoder cable by using the
soldering iron.
4) The shielding cable of the encoder cable is grounded on the end connected to the
controller (only one end is grounded to prevent interference).
3. Check the power supply before power-on.
1) The inter-phase voltage of the user power supply is within (380 V 15%), and the
unbalance degree does not exceed 3%.
2) The power input voltage between terminals 24V and COM on the MCB is within (24
VDC 15%).
3) The total lead-in wire gauge and total switch capacity meet the requirements.
If the input voltage exceeds the allowable value, serious damage will be caused. Distinguish the negative
and positive of the DC power supply. Do not run the system when there is input power phase loss.
4. Check the grounding.

1) Check that the resistance between the following points and the ground is close to
infinity.
R, S, T and PE
U, V, W and PE
24V and PE on the MCB
Motor U, V, W and PE
Encoder 15V, A, B, PGM and PE
+, bus terminals and PE
Safety circuit, door lock circuit, and inspection circuit terminals and PE
2) Check the grounding terminals of all elevator electrical components and the power
supply of the control cabinet
5.1.2 Setting and Auto-tuning of Motor Parameters
The NICE3000new supports two major control modes, sensorless flux vector control (SFVC)
and closed-loop vector control (CLVC). SFVC is applicable to inspection speed running for
commissioning and fault judgment running during maintenance of the asynchronous
motor. CLVC is applicable to normal elevator running. In CLVC mode, good driving
performance and running efficiency can be achieved in the prerequisite of correct motor
parameters.
n Motor Parameters to Be Set
The motor parameters that need to be set are listed in the following table.

n Precautions for Motor Auto-tuning
Follow the following precautions:

l Ensure that all wiring and installation meet the safety specifications.
l Ensure that the motor wiring is correct (UVW cables of the motor respectively
connected to UVW cables of the controller) for with-load auto-tuning. If the motor
wiring is incorrect, the motor may jitter or fail to run after the brake is released; in this
case, you need to replace any two of the motor UVW cables.
l Reset the current fault and then start auto-tuning, because the system cannot enter
the auto-tuning state ("TUNE" is not displayed) when there is a fault.
l Perform motor auto-tuning again if the phase sequence or encoder of the
synchronous motor is changed.
l For the synchronous motor, perform three or more times of auto-tuning, compare the
obtained values of F1-06 (Encoder initial angle). The value deviation of F1-06 shall be
within 5 , which indicates that the auto-tuning is successful.
l After the auto-tuning is completed, perform trial inspection running. Check whether
the current is normal, whether the actual running direction is the same as the set
direction. If the running direction is different from the set direction, change the value
of F2-10.
l With-load auto-tuning is dangerous (inspection-speed running of many control
cabinets is emergency electric running and the shaft safety circuit is shorted). Ensure
that there is no person in the shaft in this auto-tuning mode.
The following figure shows the motor auto-tuning process.

same.
More descriptions of motor auto-tuning are as follows:
a. When the NICE3000new drives the synchronous motor, an encoder is required to
provide feedback signals. You must set the encoder parameters correctly before
performing motor auto-tuning.
b. During synchronous motor auto-tuning, the motor needs to rotate. The best auto-tuning
mode is no-load auto-tuning; if this mode is impossible, then try with-load auto-tuning.
c. For synchronous motor, with-load auto-tuning learns stator resistance, shaft-D and
shaft-Q inductance, current loop (including zero servo) PI parameters, and encoder initial
angle; no-load auto-tuning additionally learns the encoder wiring mode.
d. For the asynchronous motor, static auto-tuning learns stator resistance, rotor resistance,
and leakage inductance, and automatically calculates the mutual inductance and motor
magnetizing current. Complete auto-tuning learns the mutual inductance, motor
magnetizing current, and current loop parameters are learned.
n Output State of RUN and Brake Contactors
For the sake of safety in different control modes, the system handles the output
commands to the RUN contactor or brake contactor differently. In some situations, it is
necessary to release the RUN contactor or the brake contactor manually
The following table lists the output state of the running and brake contactors.

5.1.3 Trial Running at Normal Speed
After ensuring that running at inspection speed is normal, perform shaft auto-tuning, and
then you can perform trial running at normal speed (the elevator satisfies the safety
running requirements).
To perform shaft auto-tuning, the following conditions must be satisfied:
1. The signals of the encoder and leveling sensors (NC, NO) are correct and the
slow-down switches are installed properly and act correctly.
2. When the elevator is at the bottom floor, the down slow-down 1 switch acts.
3. The elevator is in the inspection state. The control mode is distance control and CLVC
(F0-00 = 1, F0-01 = 1).
4. The top floor number (F6-00) and bottom floor number (F6-01) are set correctly.
5. The system is not in the fault alarm state. If there is a fault at the moment, press
to reset the fault.
Then set F1-11 to 3 on the operation panel or set F7 to 1 on the keypad of the MCB, and
start shaft auto-tuning.
For shaft auto-tuning when there are only two floors, the elevator needs to run to below the bottom
leveling position, that is, the leveling sensor is disconnected from the leveling plate. There is no such
requirement when there are multiple floors.
5.1.4 Door Machine Commissioning

Correlation of the door machine controller and the elevator controller is that the CTB
outputs door open/close command and the door machine controller feeds back the door
open/close limit signal.
After commissioning and installation of the door machine are complete, check whether the
wiring is correct and whether the door open/close limit signals are consistent with the
default setting. To perform the door machine commissioning, do as follows:
1. In the terminal control mode of the door machine controller, manually short the door
open relay output terminal BM/B1 and the door close relay output terminal BM/B2 on
the CTB, and observe whether the door machine can open and close correspondingly.
If the door machine cannot act properly, check whether BM/B1 and BM/B2 are
wrongly connected to the input terminals of the door machine controller and whether
commissioning of the door machine controller is complete.
2. After ensuring that control of door open/close is normal, check whether the door
open/close signal feedback from the door machine is normal.
a. Check the NO/NC states of the door input signals by observing the input indicators
on the CTB, as listed in the following table.
Table 5-3 NO/NC state of the door input signals

For details on the setting of F5-25, see the description of F5-25 in Chapter 7.
b. Check whether the door open/close limit signal received by the system is correct.
As shown in the following figure which is part of display of parameter F5-35 on the
operation panel, segments E and C of the upmost right 7-segment LED are the
monitoring points of door open limit and door close limit.
l Segment C ON, segment E OFF: The system receives the door open limit signal
and the door is in the open state.
l Segment E ON, segment C OFF: The system receives the door close limit signal
and the door is in the close state.
The two segments should be OFF in the door open/close process.
Control the door to the open or close state manually and view the value of F5-35. If the
following screen is displayed, it indicates that the door machine controller feeds back the
correct door open and close signals.

5.1.5 Riding Comfort
The riding comfort is an important factor of the elevator's overall performance. Improper
installation of mechanical parts and improper parameter settings will cause bad comfort.
Enhancing the riding comfort mainly involves adjustment of the controller output and the
elevator's mechanical construction.

For a faster system response, increase the proportional gain and reduce the integral time.
Be aware that a fast system response causes system oscillation.
The recommended regulating method is as follows:
If the default setting cannot satisfy the requirements, make slight regulation. Increase the
proportional gain first to the largest value under which the system does not oscillate. Then
decrease the integral time to ensure fast responsiveness and small overshoot.
If both F2-02 (Switchover frequency 1) and F2-05 (Switchover frequency 2) are set to 0,
only F2-03 and F2-04 are valid.

The release time of the brakes varies according to the types and the response time of the
brakes is greatly influenced by the ambient temperature. A very high brake coil
temperature slows the brake responsiveness. Thus, when the riding comfort at startup or
stop cannot be improved by adjusting zero servo or load cell compensation parameters,
appropriately increase the values of F3-19 and F3-20 to check whether the brake release
time influences the riding comfort.

"Pre-torque offset" is actually the elevator balance coefficient, namely, the percentage of
the car load to the rated load when the car and counterweight are balanced.
"Drive gain" or "Brake gain" scales the elevator s present pre-torque coefficient when the
motor runs at the drive or brake side. If the gain set is higher, then the calculated value of
startup pro-torque compensation is higher. The controller identifies the braking or driving
state according to the load cell signal and automatically calculates the required torque
compensation value.
When an analog device is used to measure the load, these parameters are used to adjust
the elevator startup. The method of adjusting the startup is as follows:
l In the driving state, increasing the value of F8-03 could reduce the rollback during the
elevator startup, but a very high value could cause car lurch at start.
l In the braking state, increasing the value of F8-04 could reduce the jerk in command
direction during the elevator startup, but a very high value could cause car lurch at
start.
n Mechanical Construction

rail, guide shoe, steel rope, and brake, balance of the car, and the resonance caused by
the car, guild rail and motor. For asynchronous motor, abrasion or improper installation of
the gearbox may arouse bad riding comfort.
1. Installation of the guide rail mainly involves the verticality and surface flatness of the
guide rail, smoothness of the guide rail connection and parallelism between two guide
rails (including guide rails on the counterweight side).
2. Tightness of the guide shoes (including the one on the counterweight side) also
influences the riding comfort. The guide shoes must not be too loose or tight.
3. The drive from the motor to the car totally depends on the steel rope. Large flexibility
of the steel rope with irregular resistance during the car running may cause curly
oscillation of the car. In addition, unbalanced stress of multiple steel ropes may cause
the car to jitter during running.
4. The riding comfort during running may be influenced if the brake arm is installed too
tightly or released incompletely.
5. If the car weight is unbalanced, it will cause uneven stress of the guide shoes that
connect the car and the guide rail. As a result, the guide shoes will rub with the guide
rail during running, affecting the riding comfort.
6. For asynchronous motor, abrasion or improper installation of the gearbox may also
affect the riding comfort.
7. Resonance is an inherent character of a physical system, related to the material and
quality of system components. If you are sure that the oscillation is caused by
resonance, reduce the resonance by increasing or decreasing the car weight or
counterweight and adding resonance absorbers at connections of the components
(for example, place rubber blanket under the motor).
5.1.6 Password Setting
The NICE3000new provides the parameter password protection function. Here gives an
example of changing the password into 12345 ( indicates the blinking digit), as shown
in the following figure.

Figure 5-5 Example of changing the password
l After you set the user password (set FP-00 to a non-zero value), the system requires
user password authentication (the system displays "------") when you press PRG. In
this case, you can modify the function code parameters only after entering the
password correctly.
l For factory parameters (group FF), you also need to enter the factory password.
l Do not try to modify the factory parameters. If these parameters are set improperly,
the system may be unstable or abnormal.
l In the password protection unlocked state, you can change the password at any time.
The last input number will be the user password.
l If you want to disable the password protection function, enter the correct password
and then set FP-00 to 0. If FP-00 is a non-zero value at power-on, the parameters are
protected by the password.
l Remember the password you set. Otherwise, the system cannot be unlocked.
5.2 System Application
5.2.1 Emergency Evacuation at Power Failure

Passengers may be trapped in the car if power failure suddenly happens during the use of
the elevator. The emergency evacuation function at power failure is designed to solve the
problem.
The emergency evacuation function is implemented in the following two modes:
l Uninterrupted power supply (UPS)
l Shorting PMSM stator
The two modes are described in detailed in the following part.
n Emergency Evacuation 220 V UPS

In this scheme, the 220 V UPS provides power supply to the main unit and the drive
control circuit. The following figure shows the emergency evacuation 220 V UPS circuit.
Figure 5-6 Emergency evacuation 220 V UPS circuit
The UPS emergency evacuation signal can be output only by Y6.
The following figure shows various contacts of the contactors.

Figure 5-7 Various contacts of the contactors
The UPS power is recommended in the following table.

n Shorting PMSM Stator

Shorting PMSM stator means shorting phases UVW of the PMSM, which produces
resistance to restrict movement of the elevator car. In field application, an auxiliary NC
contact is usually added to the NO contact of the output contactor to short PMSM UVW
phases to achieve the effect. It is feasible in theory but may cause over-current actually.
Due to the poor quality of the contactor and the wiring of adding the auxiliary contact, the
residual current of the controller is still high when the outputs UVW are shorted at
abnormal stop. This results in an over-current fault and may damage the controller or
motor.
Monarch's shorting PMSM stator scheme requires the installation of an independent
contactor for shorting PMSM stator. The shorting PMSM stator function is implemented via
the relay NC contact. On the coil circuit of the RUN contactor, an NO contact of the
shorting PMSM stator contactor is connected in serial, to ensure that output short-circuit
does not occur when the parameter setting is incorrect.
The following figure shows wiring of the independent shorting PMSM stator contactor.
Figure 5-8 Wiring of the independent shorting PMSM stator contactor
The parameter setting in such wiring mode is described in the following table.

5.2.2 Parallel Control of Two Elevators

The NICE3000new supports parallel control of two elevators, which is implemented by
using the CANbus communication port for information exchange and processing between
the two elevators. The NICE3000new also supports group control of three to eight elevators
if a group control board is used. This implements coordination between multiple elevators
to respond to hall calls and improves the elevator use efficiency.
The NIE3000NEW is compatible with the NICE3000 and NICE5000. This section describes
the use of two elevators in parallel control. For use of multiple elevators in group control,
refer to the description of the group control board or contact Monarch.

By default, the CAN1 communication port is used for parallel control by default. Therefore, you need not
select the parallel control port.
When the CAN2 communication port is used for parallel control, you need not set the CTB address
switch.
n Parallel Control by Using CAN1 (Terminal CN3)

When the CAN1 communication port (CN3 terminal) is used for parallel control, you need
to set the CTB addresses, according to the following table.
Table 5-9 Address and jumper setting of the CTB for CAN1 is used for parallel control
CTB Jumper Setting Address Setting
CTB of elevator 1# CTB of master elevator
CTB of elevator 2# CTB of slave elevator
Figure 5-9 Wiring when CAN1 is used for parallel control

n Parallel Control by Using CAN2 (Terminal CN4)
This mode can be implemented by directly connecting the CN4 terminals of two elevators
and setting related parameters of group F6. You need not set the CTB addresses.
Figure 5-10 Wiring when CAN2 is used for parallel control
n Parallel Control by Using RS232 (Terminal CN5)

When CANbus communication is applied for parallel control, if the 24 V power voltages of
two systems are different or the external interference is severe, the communication effect
is affected. To achieve better communication effect in parallel mode, we adopt RS485 at
terminal CN5 of the monitoring port on the MCB for communication of the parallel mode.
In this case, the RS232 communication signal needs to be converted to RS485

communication signal. Thus, two optical-isolated RS232/RS485 converters (model:
U485A) are required.
The following figure shows the wiring of parallel control implemented at the RS232
monitoring port.

n Setting of Physical Floors

Physical floors, relative to the NICE control system, are defined by the installation position
of the leveling plate. The floor (such as the ground floor) at which the lowest leveling plate
is installed corresponds to physical floor 1. The top physical floor is the accumulative
number of the leveling plates. In parallel mode, the physical floor numbers of the same
floor for two elevators are consistent.
If the floor structures of two elevators are different, physical floors should start with the
floor with the lowest position. The physical floors at the overlapped area of the two
elevators are the same. Even if one elevator does not stop a floor in the overlapped area,
a leveling plate should be installed there. You can make the elevator not stop at the floor
by setting service floors.
When two elevators are in parallel mode, the addresses of the HCBs should be set
according to physical floors. Parallel running can be implemented only when the HCB
address set for one elevator is the same as that for the other elevator in terms of the same
floor.
In parallel mode, the top floor (F6-00) and bottom floor (F6-01) of the elevators should be set based on
corresponding physical floors.
Assume that there are two elevators in parallel mode. Elevator 1 stops at floor B1, floor 1,
floor 2, and floor 3, while elevator 2 stops at floor 1, floor 3, and floor 4. Now, you need to
set related parameters and HCB addresses according to the following table.

5.2.4 VIP Function Description

The NICE3000new provides the VIP function that the elevator first directly runs to the VIP
floor and provides services for special persons. After the system enters the VIP state,
current car calls and halls are cleared; door open or close needs to be controlled manually;
the elevator does not respond to hall calls.
Here gives an example to explain how to use the VIP function and set the VIP floor.
Assume that there are floors 1 to 20 for the elevator, and floor 8 is set as the VIP floor.

When there is a hall call at the VIP floor, the system automatically enters the VIP state.
After the VIP input terminal is ON, the elevator returns to the VIP floor to provide the VIP
service.
The VIP running times is limited by bit8 of F6-46. If bit8 is set to 1, the elevator responds
to only one car call (the last one); after arriving at the floor required by the car call, the
elevator automatically exits the VIP state. If bit8 is set to 0, the number of car calls is not
limited. The elevator automatically exits the VIP state if it does not enter the car call
running within 30s after each time stop or after it executes all car calls. If there is no car
call 30s after the elevator enters the VIP state, the elevator automatically exits the VIP
state.

It is used to set the control mode of the system.

l 0: Sensorless flux vector control (SFVC)
It is applicable to low-speed running during no-load commissioning of the
asynchronous motor, fault judgment at inspection, and synchronous motor running on
special conditions.
l 1: Closed-loop vector control (CLVC)
It is applicable to normal running in distance control.

F0-01 1 -
selection 1: Distance control
It is used to set the source of running commands and running speed references.
l 0: Operation panel control
The controller is operated by pressing and on the operation panel, and

the running speed is set by F0-02 (Running speed under operation panel control).
This method is applicable only to the test or motor no-load auto-tuning.
l 1: Distance control
This method is used in the NICE series integrated elevator controller. During
inspection, the elevator runs at the speed set in F3-11. During normal running, the
controller automatically calculates the speed and running curve for the elevator based
on the distance between the current floor and the target floor within the rated elevator
speed, implementing direct stop.

Running speed under

F0-02 0.050 to F0-04 0.050 m/s
operation panel control
It is used to set the running speed in the operation panel control mode.
Note that this function is enabled only when F0-01 is set to 0 (Operation panel control).
You can change the running speed of the elevator by modifying this parameter during
running
Function
Code
Maximum running
F0-03 0.250 to F0-04 1.600 m/s

It is used to set the actual maximum running speed of the elevator. The value must be
smaller than the rated elevator speed.
Function
Code
F0-04 Rated elevator speed 0.250 4.000 1.600 m/s
It is used to set the norminal rated speed of the elevator. The value of this parameter is
dependent on the elevator mechanism and traction motor.
F0-03 is the actual running speed within the elevator speed range set in F0-04. For example, for a certain
elevator, if F0-04 is 1.750 m/s and the actually required maximum running speed is 1.600 m/s, set F0-03
to 1.600 m/s.
Function

F0-06 Maximum frequency 20.00 99.00 50.00 Hz
It is used to set the maximum output frequency of the system. This value must be larger
than the rated motor frequency.
Function
Code
F0-07 Carrier frequency 0.5 16.0 6.0 kHz
It is used to set the carrier frequency of the controller.
The carrier frequency is closely related to the motor noise during running. When it is
generally set above 6 kHz, mute running is achieved. It is recommended to set the carrier
frequency to the lowest within the allowable noise, which reduces the controller loss and
radio frequency interference.
If the carrier frequency is low, output current has high harmonics, and the power loss and
temperature rise of the motor increase.
If the carrier frequency is high, power loss and temperature rise of the motor declines.
However, the system has an increase in power loss, temperature rise and interference.
Adjusting the carrier frequency will exert influences on the aspects listed in the following
table.
Table 7-1 Influences of carrier frequency adjustment
Carrier frequency Low High

Motor noise Large Small
Output current waveform Bad Good
Motor temperature rise High Low
Controller temperature rise Low High
Leakage current Small Large
External radiation interference Small Large
On certain environment conditions (the heatsink temperature is too high), the system will reduce the
carrier frequency to provide overheat protection for the controller, preventing the controller from being
damaged due to overheat. If the temperature cannot reduce in this case, the controller reports the
overheat fault.

These parameters are obtained by means of motor auto-tuning.
F1-06 specifies the encoder angle at zero point. After multiple times of auto-tuning,
compare the obtained values, and the value deviation of F1-06 shall be within 5 .
F1-07 specifies the angle of the magnetic pole when the motor is powered off. The value
is recorded at power-off and is used for comparison at next power-on.
F1-08 specifies the motor wiring mode, that is, whether the output phase sequence of the
drive board is consistent with the UVW phase sequence of the motor. If the value obtained
by means of no-load auto-tuning is an even number, the phase sequence is correct. If the
value is an odd number, the sequence is incorrect; in this case, exchange any two of
UWW phases of the motor.

It is used to set encoder signal verification. This parameter is set by the manufacturer, and
you need not modify it generally.
Function
Code
0: No operation
F1-11 Auto-tuning mode 2: No-load auto-tuning 0 -
It is used to select the auto-tuning mode.
"With-load auto-tuning" is static auto-tuning for the asynchronous motor and rotary
auto-tuning for the synchronous motor. "No-load auto-tuning" is complete auto-tuning, by
which all motor parameters can be obtained.
When F1-11 is set to 2 (No-load auto-tuning), the motor must be completely disconnected
from the load; otherwise, the auto-tuning effect will be affected. When TUNE is displayed
on the operation panel, you need to manually release the brake before starting
auto-tuning. For details on the auto-tuning process, see the description in section 5.1.3.
Function

Encoder pulses per
F1-12 0 10000 2048 PPR
revolution
It is used to set the pulses per revolution of the encoder (according to the encoder
nameplate).
This parameter is critical to CLVC. Set the encoder nominal value in this parameter.
Otherwise, the elevator may not run properly. When the feedback pulses received by the
system is data after frequency division by other equipment, set the frequency-division
- 123 -
value rather than the encoder nominal value in this parameter. For example, if the pulses
per revolution of the encoder is 8192 and is sent to the system after 1/4 frequency division,
set this parameter to 2048 (8192/4 = 2048).
F0-04 (Rated elevator speed), F1-05 (Rated motor rotational speed), and F1-12 (Encoder pulses per
revolution) determine whether the elevator can run properly. If any of these parameters is changed, shaft
auto-tuning must be performed again.
Function
Code

This parameter is used to set the time that a wire-break fault lasts before being detected.
After the elevator starts running at non-zero speed, if there is no encoder signal input
within the time set in this parameter, the system prompts the encoder fault and stops
running.
When the value is smaller than 0.5s, this function is disabled.

F2-03 and F2-04 are PI regulation parameters when the running frequency is larger than
the value of F2-05 (Switchover frequency 2).
If the running frequency is between F2-02 and F2-05, the speed loop PI parameters are
obtained from the weighted average value of the two groups of PI parameters (F2-00,
F2-01 and F2-03, F2-04), as shown in Figure 7-1.
Figure 7-1 Relationship between running frequencies and PI parameters

The speed dynamic response characteristics in vector control can be adjusted by setting
the proportional gain and integral time of the speed regulator.
To achieve a faster system response, increase the proportional gain and reduce the
integral time. Be aware that this may lead to system oscillation.
The recommended adjustment method is as follows:
If the default setting cannot meet the requirements, make proper adjustment. Increase the
proportional gain first to ensure that the system does not oscillate, and then reduce the
integral time to ensure that the system has quick response and small overshoot.
If both F2-02 (Switchover frequency 1) and F2-05 (Switchover frequency 2) are 0, only
F2-03 and F2-04 are valid.
Function

F2-06 Current loop KP1 (torque) 10 500 60 -
F2-07 Current loop KI1 (torque) 10 500 30 -
These two parameters are regulation parameters for the torque axis current loop.
These parameters are used as the torque axis current regulator in vector control. The best
values of the parameters matching the motor characteristics are obtained by means of
motor auto-tuning. You need not modify them generally.
Function
Code
F2-08 Torque upper limit 0.0 200.0 150.0 %
It is used to set the torque upper limit of the motor. The value 100% corresponds to the
rated output torque of the adaptable motor.
Function

Elevator running
F2-10 0 3 0 -
direction
- 126 -
It is used to set the elevator running direction.
The values are as follows:
0: Running direction and position pulse direction unchanged
1: Running direction reversed, position pulse direction reversed
2: Running direction unchanged, position pulse direction reversed
3: Running direction reversed, position pulse direction unchanged
You can modify this parameter to reverse the running direction (without changing the
wiring of the motor) and position pulse direction (pulse direction for determining the
elevator position in F4-03).
For example, if inspection on the up direction needs to be performed after the elevator is
installed, but the elevator is in down direction, you need to reverse the running direction; if
the pulses indicated by F4-03 decrease (that is, down direction) during inspection up, you
need to reverse the position pulse direction.
The correct directions are as follows:
During inspection up, the car moves upward, and the pulses indicated by F4-03 increase;
during inspection down, the car moves downward, and the pulses indicated by F4-03
decrease.
Pay attention to the setting of this parameter when restoring the default setting.

F3-07 Deceleration start jerk time 0.300 4.000 2.500 s
These parameters are used to set the running curve during deceleration of the elevator.
F3-02 (F3-05) is the acceleration rate (deceleration rate) in the straight-line acceleration
process (deceleration process) of the S curve.
F3-03 (F3-07) is the time for the rate to increase from 0 to the value set in F3-02 (F3-05) in
the end jerk segment of the S curve. The larger the value is, the smoother the jerk is.
F3-04 (F3-06) is the time for the rate to decrease from the value set in F3-02 (F3-05) to 0

These parameters specify the positions of all slow-down switches relative to the bottom
leveling position, and the positions are automatically recorded during shaft auto-tuning.
For the installation positions of the slow-down switches, see the description of section
3.8.2.
The NICE3000new integrated elevator controller supports a maximum of three pairs of
slow-down switches. From two sides of the shaft to the middle, slow-down 1, slow-down 2,
and slow-down 3 are installed in order; that is, slow-down 1 is installed near the terminal
floor. There may be only one pair of slow-sown switches for the low-speed elevator, and
two or three pairs of slow-down switches for the high-speed elevator.
The system automatically detects the speed when the elevator reaches a slow-down
switch. If the detected speed or position is abnormal, the system enables the elevator to
slow down at the special deceleration rate set in F3-08, preventing over travel top terminal
or over travel bottom terminal.

It is used to set the elevator speed of returning to the leveling position at normal
non-leveling stop.
Group F4: Floor Parameters
Function
Code
F4-00 Leveling adjustment 0 60 30 mm
It is used to adjust the leveling accuracy at elevator stop. If over-leveling occurs in elevator
stop at all floors, decrease the value of this parameter properly. If under-leveling occurs in
elevator stop at all floors, increase the value of this parameter properly.
This parameter takes effect to leveling of all floors. Therefore, if leveling at a single floor is
inaccurate, adjust the position of the leveling plate.
The NICE3000new has the advanced distance control algorithm and adopts many methods
to ensure reliability of direct stop. Generally you need not modify this parameter.
Function
Code
F4-01 Current floor F6-01 to F6-00 1 -
This parameter indicates the current floor of the elevator car.
- 131 -
The system automatically changes the value of this parameter during running, and
corrects it at leveling position (door open limit) after the up slow-down and down
slow-down switches act. At non-bottom floor and top-floor leveling, you can also manually
modify this parameter, but the value must be consistent with the actual current floor.

These two parameters indicate the absolute pulses of the current position of the elevator
car relative to the bottom leveling position.
The position data of the NICE3000new in the shaft is recorded in pulses. Each position is
expressed by a 32-bit binary number, where the high 16 bits indicate the high byte of the
floor position, and the low 16 bits indicate the low byte of the floor position.
Function
Code
F4-04 Length 1 of leveling plate 0 65535 0 mm

F4-05 Length 2 of leveling plate 0 65535 0 mm
These two parameters respectively indicate the pulses corresponding to the length of the
magnetic value and the length between two leveling sensors. They are automatically
recorded during shaft auto-tuning.
Function

F4-06 High byte of floor height 1 0 65535 0 Pulses
(Floor height 2 to floor height 38)
F4-82 High byte of floor height 39 0 65535 0 Pulses
These parameters indicate the pulses corresponding to the floor height i (between the
leveling plates of floor n and floor i+1). Each floor height is expressed by a 32-bit binary
number, where the high 16 bits indicate the high byte of the floor height, and the low 16
bits indicate the low byte of the floor height. On normal conditions, the floor height i of
each floor is almost the same.

If there is a hall call at current floor in attendant state, the system automatically switches
over to the automatic (normal) state after the time set in this parameter. After this running
is completed, the system automatically restores to the attendant state (BIT2 of F6-43 must
be set to 1). When the value of this parameter is smaller than 5, this function is disabled,
and the system is in the normal attendant state.
Function
Code

These parameters are used to set the functions of input terminals X1 to X24.
Functions 04/36 (Safety circuit feedback NO/NC input), 05/37 (Door lock circuit feedback NO/NC input),
06/38 (Main contactor feedback NO/NC input), 07/39 (Brake feedback contactor NO/NC input), 26/58
(Brake contactor feedback 2 NO/NC input) can be repeatedly allocated to the input terminals.
Terminals X1 to X24 are digital inputs, and are allocated with corresponding functions
based on the input signals. All these terminals share the COM terminal. After the 24 V
voltage is input, the corresponding input terminal indicator becomes ON. The functions
are described as follows:
00: Invalid
Even if there is signal input to the terminal, the system has no response. You can allocate
this function to terminals that are not used to prevent mis-function.
01: Up leveling signal 02: Down leveling signal 03: Door zone signal
The NICE3000new system determines the elevator leveling position based on the leveling
sensor signal. The system supports three types of leveling configuration: single door zone
sensor, up/down leveling sensor, and door zone sensor plus the up/down leveling sensor.
If three leveling sensors are used, the system receives the up leveling signal, door zone
signal, and down leveling signal in sequence in the up direction, and receives down
leveling signal, door zone signal, and up leveling signal in sequence in the down direction.
If two leveling sensors (up leveling sensor and down leveling sensor) are used, the
system receives the up leveling signal and down leveling signal in sequence in the up
direction, and receives down leveling signal and up leveling signal in sequence in the
down direction.
If the leveling signal is abnormal (stuck or unavailable), the system reports fault Err22.
04: Safety circuit feedback signal 05: Door lock circuit feedback signal 29: Safety
circuit 2 feedback signal 31: Door lock circuit 2 feedback signal
The safety circuit is important to safe and reliable running of the elevator, and the door
- 133 -
lock circuit ensures that the hall door and car door are closed before the elevator starts to
run. Valid feedback signals of the safety circuit and door lock circuit are necessary to
elevator running.
It is recommended that these signals are set to NO input. If they are set to NC input, the
system considers the input active even though there is no input. In this case, the actual
state of the safety circuit cannot be detected, which may cause potential safety risks.
06: RUN contactor feedback signal 07: Brake contactor feedback signal 26:
Brake contactor feedback 2 signal
The system sends commands to the RUN and brake contactors and automatically detects
the feedback from the RUN and brake contactors. If the commands and the feedback are
inconsistent, the system reports a fault.
08: Inspection signal09: Inspection up signal 10: Inspection down signal
When the Automatic/Inspection switch is set to the Inspection position, the elevator enters
the inspection state; in this case, the system cancels all automatic running including the
automatic door operations. When the inspection up signal or inspection down signal is
valid, the elevator runs at the inspection speed.
11: Fire emergency signal
When the fire emergency switch is turned on, the elevator enters the fire emergency state,
and immediately cancels the registered hall calls and car calls. The elevator stops at the
nearest floor without opening the door, and then directly runs to the fire emergency floor
and automatically opens the door after arrival.
12: Up limit signal 13: Down limit signal
The up limit signal and down limit signal are used as the stop switches at the terminal floor
to prevent over travel top terminal or over travel bottom terminal when the elevator runs
over the leveling position of the terminal floor but does not stop.
14: Overload signal
When the elevator load exceeds 110% of the rated load during normal use, the elevator
enters the overload state. Then the overload buzzer beeps, the overload indicator in the
car becomes ON, and the elevator door keeps open. The overload signal becomes invalid
when the door lock is applied. If the running with 110% of the rated load is required during
inspection, you can set F7-06 to 1 to allow overload running (note that this function has
potential safety risks and use it with caution).
It is recommended that the overload signal be set to NC input. If it is set to NO, the system
cannot detect the overload state when the overload switch is damaged or the connection
is broken, and the elevator running in this case may cause potential safety risks. It is also
recommended that the up limit signal, down limit signal, and slow-down signal are set to
NC input.
15: Full-load signal
When the elevator load is 80% to 110% of the rated load, the HOP displays the full-load
state, and the elevator does not respond to hall calls.
- 134 -
When terminal X on the MCB is used for input of the overload and full-load signals, ensure that F5-36 has
been set to 0.
16: Up slow-down 1 signal 17: Down slow-down 1 signal

The slow-down signals are used to enable the elevator to stop at the slow-down speed
when the car position is abnormal, which is an important method to guarantee elevator
safety. The system automatically records the positions of the switches in group F3 during
shaft auto-tuning.
22: Shorting door lock circuit contactor feedback
It is the feedback signal when the door lock circuit is shorted at enabling of the function of
door pre-open upon arrival or re-leveling at door open for the elevator configured with the
pre-open module. This is to ensure safety during the elevator running.
23: Firefighter switch signal
It is the firefighter switch signal and is used to enable the firefighter running. After the
elevator returns to the fire emergency floor, the elevator enters the firefighter running state
if the firefighter signal is active.
24: Door machine 1 light curtain signal; 25: Door machine 2 light curtain signal
They are used to detect the light curtain signals of door machine 1 and door machine 2 (if
existing).
27: UPS valid signal
It is the emergency running signal at power failure. If it is active, it indicates that the
elevator is running for emergency evacuation at power failure. For more details, see
section 5.2.1.
28: Elevator lock signal
If this signal is active, the elevator enters the locked state, returns to the elevator lock floor
and does not respond to any calls until the signal becomes inactive. It has the same
function as the hall call elevator lock signal.
30: Shorting PMSM stator feedback signal
The shorting PMSM stator contactor protects the elevator from falling at high speed in the
case of brake failure. This signal is used to monitor whether the shorting PMSM stator
contactor is normal.
65: Door machine 1 safety edge signal; 66: Door machine 2 safety edge signal
They are used to detect the safety edge signal state of door machine 1 and door machine
2 (if existing).
67: Motor overheat signal
- 135 -
If this signal remains active for more than 2s, the controller stops output and reports fault
Err39 to prompt motor overheat. After this signal becomes inactive, Err39 is reset
automatically and the system resumes to normal operation.
68: Earthquake signal

If this signal remains active for more than 2s, the elevator enters the earthquake stop state,
stops at the nearest landing floor and opens the door. Then the elevator starts running
again after the earthquake signal becomes inactive.
69: Back door forbidden signal
If double door machines are applied, this signal is used to prohibit the use of door
machine 2.
70: Light-load signal
It is used for nuisance judgment in the anti-nuisance function. If Bit2 in F8-08 is set to 1,
the system performs nuisance judgment by using the light-load switch. 30% of rated load
is regarded as light load.
71: Half-load signal
It is used for allocation of elevators in parallel or group mode and judgment of the
emergency running direction at power failure.
72: Fire emergency floor switchover signal
The NICE3000new supports two fire emergency floors. By default, the elevator stops at fire
emergency floor 1 in fire emergency state. If this signal is active, the elevator stops at fire
emergency floor 2 in fire emergency state.

The terminal has no function.
01: RUN contactor control; 02: Brake contactor control; 03: Shorting door lock
circuit contactor control
The terminal with one of these functions controls whether the contactor is opened or
closed.
04: Fire emergency floor arrival signal feedback
In the fire emergency state, the system sends the feedback signal for monitoring after the
elevator stops at the fire emergency floor.
05: Door machine 1 open; 06: Door machine 1 close; 07: Door machine 2 open; 08:
Door machine 2 close
The terminal with one of these functions is used to control open/close of door 1/2.
09: Brake and RUN contactors healthy
When the brake and RUN contactors operate properly (non-Err36/Err37 state), the system
sends the feedback signal for monitoring.
10: Fault state
The terminal with the function has output when the system is in the level-3, level-4 or
level-5 fault state.
11: Running monitor
The terminal with the function has output when the controller is running.
12: Shorting PMSM stator contactor
When the shorting PMSM stator contactor is applied in synchronous motor, the terminal
with the function is used to control whether the contactor is closed or opened. For details,
see section 5.2.1.
13: Emergency evacuation automatic switchover
When detecting that the bus voltage declines to a certain value after power failure occurs
on the mains supply, the controller outputs this signal and uses the battery for temporary
power supply, implementing emergency evacuation running.
Only Y6/M6 can be allocated with this function because the controller needs to depend on
its residual power to drive the relay at power failure of the mains supply.
14: System healthy
The terminal with the function has output when the system operates properly.
- 137 -
15: Emergency buzzer control
The terminal with the function has output when the system is in the emergency evacuation
running state. The buzzer tweets to prompt.
16: High-voltage startup of brake
This function is used for the brake that keeps the release state with voltage reduction. The
terminal with this function keeps the output for 4s to release the brake, and then the
voltage is reduced to keep the brake release state.
17: Elevator running in up direction
The terminal with the function has output when the elevator runs in the up direction.
18: Lamp/Fan running
It is used for the lamp/fan running output, the same as the energy saving control output of
the CTB.
19: Medical sterilization
It is used to control the output of the ultraviolet sterilizing lamp signal. After the elevator
stops running and the lamp/fan stops operating, the medical sterilization output is started.
20: Non-door zone stop
The terminal with this function has output when the elevator stops at the non-door zone.
21: Electric lock
It is used to control applying and releasing of the electric lock in the case of manual door.
22: Non-service state
It is output when the elevator is in the non-service state and cannot respond to hall calls.

F6-13 Security floor 0 to F6-00 0 -
It is used to set the security floor of the elevator. If the security signal is active or it is
during the night security period, the elevator runs to the security floor first every time,
stops and opens the door, and then runs to the target floor.
The elevator can be made to stop at the security floor in the following two ways:
- 146 -
l Fd-07/Fd-08 is set to 5 (Security signal). If the security signal is active, the elevator
enters the security state.
l The night security floor function is enabled (FE-32 Bit5 = 2), the elevator enters the
security state from 22:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m.

These parameters define the time periods of two groups of time-based services and
corresponding service floors.
Service floor 1 corresponds to floors 1 16, service floor 2 corresponds to floors 17 32,
and service floor 3 corresponds to floors 33 30.
In the time period of time-based service 1 (set by F6-18 and F6-19), the elevator responds
- 147 -
to the service floors set by F6-20, F6-21 and F6-36 but ignores the service floors set by
F6-05, F6-06 and F5-35. The setting of time-based service floors is the same as that of
service floors in F6-05.
1. During the time-based floor service period, the settings of F6-05, F6-06 and F5-35 are invalid.
2. If the two periods of time-based floor service 1 and time-based floor service 2 are overlapped, the
system implements time-based floor service 1 because it has higher priority level.

These parameters define two peak time periods in parallel mode and corresponding floors.
During a peak time period, if there are more than three car calls from the peak floor, the
elevator enters the peak service state. At the moment, the car calls from the peak floor are
valid all the time. The elevator returns to this floor if it is idle.

F6-38 Elevator lock start time 00.00 23.59 00.00 HH.MM
F6-39 Elevator lock end time 00.00 23.59 00.00 HH.MM

Group F7: Test Function Parameters
This group of parameters is specialized for elevator commissioning.

Follow the instructions for normal-speed commissioning:
1. Before the commissioning, ensure that the shaft is unobstructed and the related
parameters have been set properly.
2. Run the elevator to the middle floor of the shaft at the inspection speed so as to
prevent wrong running direction.
3. Perform single-floor command commissioning and then perform multi-floor command
commissioning.
- 154 -
4. After the commissioning is complete, check that the parameters in this group are set
properly.
F7-00 Car call floor registered 0 to F6-00 0 -
F7-01 Up call floor registered 0 to F6-00 0 -
F7-02 Down call floor registered 0 to F6-00 0 -
These parameters are used to set the destination floors at elevator commissioning or
repairing. They can be respectively used as the car call button, hall call up button and hall
call down button. They remain valid after the commissioning command is input, and
become invalid until they are set to 0 or the system suffers power failure.
F7-03 Random running times 0 60000 0 -
It is used to set the random running times of the system.

The NICE3000new has the random automatic running function. If the setting of F7-03 is
greater than 60000, the system keeps implementing random automatic running until you
set F7-03 to 0.
You can set the time interval between two times of random running in F7-08.

It is used to enable the door open function.

0: Yes (door open allowed)
1: No (door open forbidden)
Continuous running of the elevator without opening the door accelerates overheating of the controller
module. Long-time use in such mode may cause overheat protection, and therefore, use the function with
caution.

Group F8: Enhanced Function Parameters

Load for load cell
F8-00 0 100 0 %
auto-tuning
It is used to set the load for load cell auto-tuning.

To perform load cell auto-tuning, do as follows:
1. Ensure that F8-01 is set to 0 and F5-36 is set to 2 or 3 to make the system allow load
cell auto tuning.
2. Stop the elevator at any floor, with the car in the no-load state. Set F8-00 to 0 and
press the ENTER key.
3. Put N% load in the car. Then set F8-00 to N and press the ENTER key.
For example, if you put 500 kg load in the elevator with rated load of 1000 kg, set
F8-00 to 50.
After the load-cell auto-tuning is completed, the corresponding no-load and full-load data
will be recorded in F8-06 and F8-07. You can also manually input the data according to
the actual situation.
F8-01 Pre-torque selection 0 2 0 -
It is used to set the pre-torque compensation mode at startup of the elevator.

- 156 -
l 0: Pre-torque invalid
Load cell auto-tuning is allowed.
l 1: Load cell pre-torque compensation
With a load cell, the system implements the pre-torque compensation function.
l 2: Automatic pre-torque compensation
The system automatically adjusts the compensated torque at startup without a load
cell.
If F8-01 is set to 1, the system outputs the torque matching the load in advance to ensure
the riding comfort at startup. The output torque is limited by F2-08 (Torque upper limit).
When the load torque is greater than the set torque upper limit, the output torque of the
system is the torque upper limit.
F8-02 Pre-torque offset 0.0 100.0 50.0 %
It is used to set the pre-torque offset. It is actually the balance coefficient of the elevator,
indicating the percentage of the car load to the rated load when the counterweight and the
car weight are balanced.
F8-03 Drive gain 0.00 2.00 0.60 -
F8-04 Brake gain 0.00 2.00 0.60 -
These two parameters are used to set the pre-torque gain when the elevator runs on the
drive side or the brake side.
For details, see section 5.1.5.
F8-05 Current car load 0 1023 0 -
This parameter is readable and reflects the load situation in the car. The value is sampled
by the NICE3000new by using a load cell. This parameter is used to judge overload or
full-load, or calculate the torque current for load cell pre-torque compensation.
F8-06 Car no-load load 0 1023 0 -
F8-07 Car full-load load 0 1023 100 -
These two parameters respectively specify the car no-load load and full-load load. They
are AD sampling values.
If F8-06 = F8-07, the full-load and over-load become invalid.
- 157 -
F8-08 Anti-nuisance function 0, 1, 2, 4 0 -
It is the criteria for judging whether nuisance exists.

l 0: Anti-nuisance function disabled
l 1: Nuisance judged by load cell
A load cell is required. The system judges whether nuisance exists by comparing the
load cell data and the number of car calls.
l 2: Nuisance judged by light curtain
The system determines that nuisance exists when the light curtain does not act after
the elevator stops at arrival for three consecutive times.
l 4: Nuisance judged by light-load signal
If the light-load signal is active, the system determines that nuisance exists when the
number of car calls is greater than a certain value.
When the system determines that the elevator is in the nuisance state, it cancels all car
calls. In this case, call calls need to be registered again.
F8-09 0.000 0.100 0.050 m/s
operation speed at power failure
It is used to set the speed for emergency evacuation operation at power failure.
F8-10 0 2 0 -

F8-11 Brake apply delay 0.000 1.000 0.600 s
It is used to set the time from the moment when the system sends the brake apply
command to the moment when the brake is completely applied. For details, see Figure
7-3.
F8-12 Fire emergency floor 2 0 to F6-00 0 -
It is used to set the second fire emergency floor. The switchover between fire emergency
floor 1 and fire emergency floor 2 is implemented by means of input from the MCB. When
- 158 -
this signal is input, the elevator enters the fire emergency state and returns to this floor.

If it is valid, the HCB no longer displays the current floor information of the car but displays
the set address of itself, convenient for inspection in the case of wrong floor address
setting.
Group F9: Time Parameters

Idle time before returning to
F9-00 0 240 10 min
base floor
It is used to set the idle time of the elevator before returning to the base floor.
When the idle time of the elevator exceeds the setting of this parameter, the elevator
returns to the base floor.
If this parameter is set to 0, it becomes invalid.
Time for fan and lamp to be
F9-01 0 240 2 min
turned off
It is used to set the time that fan and lamp stays ON before being turned off automatically.
If there is no running command in the automatic running state, the system turns off the fan
and lamp automatically after the time set in this parameter.
If this parameter is set to 0, it becomes invalid.
F9-02 Motor running time limit 0 45 45 s
It is used to set the running time limit of the motor.

In normal running state, if the continuous motor running time in the same direction
between two adjacent floors exceeds the setting of this parameter but no leveling signal is
received, the system will perform protection.
This parameter is mainly used for over-time protection in the case of steel rope slipping on
the traction sheave.
If this parameter is set to a value smaller than 3s, it becomes invalid.

Code
Fr-01 Leveling adjustment record 1 30030 mm
00000 60060
These parameters are used to record the leveling adjustment values. Each parameter
records the adjustment information of two floors, and therefore, the adjustment
information of 40 floors can be recorded totally.
The method of viewing the record is shown in the following figure.
Figure 7-9 Viewing the leveling adjustment record
- 182 -
As shown in the preceding figure, the left two LEDs and the right two LEDs respectively
show the adjustment bases of floor 1 and floor 2. If the value is larger than 30, it is upward
leveling adjustment; if the value is smaller than 30, it is downward leveling adjustment.
The default value "30" indicates that there is no leveling adjustment. The maximum
adjustment range is 30 mm.
The leveling adjustment method is as follows:
1. Ensure that shaft auto-tuning is completed successfully, and the elevator runs
properly at normal speed.
2. Set Fr-00 to 1 to enable the car leveling adjustment function. Then, the elevator
shields hall calls, automatically runs to the top floor, and keeps the door open after
arrival. If the elevator is at the top floor, it directly keeps the door open.
3. Go into the car, press the top floor button, and the leveling position is changed 1 mm
upward; press the bottom floor button, and the leveling position is changed 1 mm
downward. The value is displayed in the car.
Positive value: up arrow + value, negative value: down arrow + value, adjustment
range: 30 mm
4. After completing adjustment for the current floor, press the top floor button and
bottom floor button in the car at the same time to save the adjustment result. The car
display restores to the normal state. If the leveling position of the current floor need
not be adjusted, press the top floor button and bottom floor button in the car at the
same time to exit the leveling adjustment state. Then, car calls can be registered.
5. Press the door close button, and press the button for the next floor. The elevator runs
to the next floor and keeps the door open after arrival. Then, you can perform leveling
adjustment.
6. After completing adjustment for all floors, set Fr-00 to 0 to disable the leveling
adjustment function. Otherwise, the elevator cannot be used.
Pay attention to the following precautions during the operation:

1. Each time shaft auto-tuning is performed, all leveling adjustment parameters can be
cleared or reserved.
a. If you set F1-11 to 3 on the operator or F7 to 1 on the keypad, all leveling
- 183 -
adjustment parameters are reserved.
b. If you set F1-11 to 4 on the operator or F-7 to 2 on the keypad, all leveling

Chapter 8 EMC
8.1 Definition of Terms

1) EMC
Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) describes the ability of electronic and electrical

devices or systems to work properly in the electromagnetic environment and not to
generate electromagnetic interference that influences other local devices or systems.
In other words, EMC includes two aspects: The electromagnetic interference generated
by a device or system must be restricted within a certain limit; the device or system
must have sufficient immunity to the electromagnetic interference in the environment.
2) First environment
Environment that includes domestic premises, it also includes establishments directly

connected without intermediate transformers to a low-voltage power supply network which
supplies buildings used for domestic purposes
3) Second environment
Environment that includes all establishments other than those directly connected to a
low-voltage power supply network which supplies buildings used for domestic purposes
4) Category C1 Controller
Power Drive System (PDS) of rated voltage less than 1 000 V, intended for use in the first
environment
PDS of rated voltage less than 1 000 V, which is neither a plug in device nor a movable
device and, when used in the first environment, is intended to be installed and
commissioned only by a professional
PDS of rated voltage less than 1 000 V, intended for use in the second environment and not
intended for use in the first environment
PDS of rated voltage equal to or above 1 000 V, or rated current equal to or above 400 A, or
intended for use in complex systems in the second environment
8.2 Introduction to EMC Standard

8.2.1 EMC Standard
The NICE3000new controller satisfies the requirements of standard EN 61800-3: 2004
- 185 -
Category C2. The controller is applied to both the first environment and the second
environment.
8.2.2 Installation Environment
The system manufacturer using the controller is responsible for compliance of the
system with the European EMC directive. Based on the application of the system, the
integrator must ensure that the system complies with standard EN 61800-3: 2004
Category C2, C3 or C4.
The system (machinery or appliance) installed with the controller must also have the CE
mark. The system integrator is responsible for compliance of the system with the EMC
directive and standard EN 61800-3: 2004 Category C2.
If applied in the first environment, the controller may generate radio interference. Besides the CE
compliance described in this chapter, users must take measures to avoid such interference, if
necessary.
8.2.3 Requirements on Satisfying the EMC Directive
1. The controller requires an external EMC filter. The recommended filter models are
listed in Table 8-1. The cable connecting the filter and the controller should be as
short as possible and be not longer than 30 cm. Furthermore, install the filter and the
controller on the same metal plate, and ensure that the grounding terminal of the
controller and the grounding point of the filter are in good contact with the metal plate.
2. Select the motor and the control cable according to the description of the cable in
section 8.4.
3. Install the controller and arrange the cables according to the cabling and grounding in
section 8.4.
4. Install an AC reactor to restrict the current harmonics. For the recommended models,
see Table 8-2.
8.3 Selection of Peripheral EMC Devices

8.3.1 Installation of EMC Input Filter on Power Input Side
An EMC filter installed between the controller and the power supply can not only restrict
the interference of electromagnetic noise in the surrounding environment on the
controller, but also prevents the interference from the controller on the surrounding
equipment.
The NICE3000new controller satisfies the requirements of category C2 only with an EMC
filter installed on the power input side. The installation precautions are as follows:
- 186 -
l Strictly comply with the ratings when using the EMC filter. The EMC filter is category I
electric apparatus, and therefore, the metal housing ground of the filter should be in
good contact with the metal ground of the installation cabinet on a large area, and
requires good conductive continuity. Otherwise, it will result in electric shock or poor
EMC effect.
l The grounds of the EMC filter and the PE conductor of the controller must be tied to
the same common ground. Otherwise, the EMC effect will be affected seriously.
l The EMC filter should be installed as closely as possible to the power input side of
the controller.
The following table lists the recommended manufacturers and models of EMC filters for
the NICE3000new controller. Select a proper one based on actual requirements.

8.4 Shielded Cable

8.4.1 Requirements for the Shielded Cable
The shielded cable must be used to satisfy the EMC requirements. Shielded cables are
classified into three-conductor cable and four-conductor cable. If conductivity of the cable
shield is not sufficient, add an independent PE cable, or use a four-conductor cable, of
which one phase conductor is PE cable.
The three-conductor cable and four-conductor cable are shown in the following figure.
The motor cable and PE shielded conducting wire (twisted shielded) should be as short as
possible to reduce electromagnetic radiation and external stray current and capacitive
current of the cable.
To suppress emission and conduction of the radio frequency interference effectively, the
shield of the shielded cable is cooper braid. The braided density of the cooper braid should be
greater than 90% to enhance the shielding efficiency and conductivity, as shown in the
following figure.
- 189 -
It is recommended that all control cables be shielded. The grounding area of the shielded
cable should be as large as possible. A suggested method is to fix the shield on the metal
plate using the metal cable clamp so as to achieve good contact, as shown in the
following figure.
Shielded cable Metal plate

Metal cable clamp
The following figure shows the grounding method of the shielded cable.
Figure 8-1 Grounding of the shielded cable
8.4.2 Installation Precautions of the Shielded Cable
l Symmetrical shielded cable is recommended. The four-conductor shielded cable can

also be used as an input cable.
l The motor cable and PE shielded conducting wire (twisted shielded) should be as
short as possible to reduce electromagnetic radiation and external stray current and
capacitive current of the cable. If the motor cable is over 100 meters long, an output
filter or reactor is required.
l It is recommended that all control cables be shielded.
l It is recommended that a shielded cable be used as the output power cable of the
controller; the cable shield must be well grounded. For devices suffering from
interference, shielded twisted pair (STP) cable is recommended as the lead wire
and the cable shield must be well grounded.
- 190 -
8.4.3 Cabling Requirement
1. The motor cables must be laid far away from other cables, with recommended
distance larger than 0.5 m. The motor cables of several controllers can be laid side by
side.
2. It is recommended that the motor cables, power input cables and control cables be
laid in different ducts. To avoid electromagnetic interference caused by rapid change
of the output voltage of the controller, the motor cables and other cables must not be
laid side by side for a long distance.
3. If the control cable must run across the power cable, make sure they are arranged at
an angle of close to 90 . Other cables must not run across the controller.
4. The power input and output cables of the controller and weak-current signal cables
(such as control cable) should be laid vertically (if possible) rather than in parallel.
5. The cable ducts must be in good connection and well grounded. Aluminium ducts can
be used to improve electric potential.
6. The filter, controller and motor should be connected to the system (machinery or
appliance) properly, with spraying protection at the installation part and conductive
metal in full contact.
7. The controller must be connected to the cabinet properly, with spraying protection at
the installation part and conductive metal in full contact.
8. The filter must be connected to the cabinet properly, with spraying protection at the
installation part and conductive metal in full contact.
9. The motor should be connected to the system (machinery or appliance) properly, with
spraying protection at the installation part and conductive metal in full contact.

8.5 Solutions to Common EMC Interference Problems
The controller generates very strong interference. Although EMC measures are taken,
the interference may still exist due to improper cabling or grounding during use. When
the controller interferes with other devices, adopt the following solutions.
Interference Type Solution
l Connect the motor housing to the PE of the controller.

Leakage protection l Connect the PE of the controller to the PE of the mains power supply.
switch tripping l Add a safety capacitor to the power input cable.
l Add magnetic rings to the input drive cable.

l Connect the PE of the controller to the PE of the mains voltage.
Controller l Add a safety capacitor to the power input cable and wind the cable with
interference during magnetic rings.
running l Add a safety capacitor to the interfered signal port or wind the signal
cable with magnetic rings.
l Connect the equipment to the common ground.

l Connect the PE of the controller to the PE of the mains voltage.
l Add a safety capacitor to the power input cable and wind the cable with
magnetic rings.
Communication
l Add a matching resistor between the communication cable source and
interference
the load side.
l Add a common grounding cable besides the communication cable.
l Use a shielded cable as the communication cable and connect the cable
shield to the common grounding point.
l Enlarge the capacitance at the low-speed DI. A maximum of 0.11 uF

I/O interference capacitance is suggested.
l Enlarge the capacitance at the AI. A maximum of 0.22 uF is suggested.

Chapter 9 Maintenance and Troubleshooting
9.1 Maintenance
9.1.1 Routine Maintenance
The influence of the ambient temperature, humidity, dust and vibration will cause the
aging of the components inside the AC drive, which may cause potential faults or reduce
the service life of the AC drive. Therefore, it is necessary to carry out routine and periodic
maintenance.
Routine maintenance involves checking:

l Whether the installation environment of the AC drive changes
l Whether the cooling fan works properly
l Whether the motor vibrates excessively
l Whether the AC drive overheats
Routine cleaning involves:
l Keep the AC drive clean all the time.
l Remove the dust, especially metal powder on the surface of the AC drive, to prevent
the dust from entering the AC drive.
l Clear the oil stain on the cooling fan of the AC drive.
9.1.2 Periodic Inspection
Perform periodic inspection on the items that are difficult to check during running. Periodic
inspection involves:
l Check and clean the air filter periodically.
l Check whether the screws become loose.
l Check whether the AC drive is corroded.
l Check whether the wiring terminals have arc signs.
l Carry out the main circuit insulation test.
Before measuring the insulating resistance with megameter (500 VDC megameter recommended),
disconnect the main circuit from the AC drive. Do not use the insulating resistance meter to test the
insulation of the control circuit. The high voltage test need not be performed again because it has been
completed before delivery.
- 193 -
9.1.3 Replacement of Vulnerable Components
Vulnerable components of the AC drive include the cooling fan and filter electrolytic
capacitor. Their service life is related to the operating environment and maintenance.
The service life of the two components is listed in the following table.
Table 9-1 Service life of cooling fan and filter electrolytic capacitor

jumping
l Measure the insulating resistance.
l Electrolytic aging
The service life is obtained based on the following conditions:
Ambient temperature: average 30°C per year
Load rate: below 80%
Running time: less than 20 hours per day
9.1.4 Storage of the AC Drive
For storage of the AC drive, pay attention to the following two aspects:
1. Pack the AC drive with the original packing box provided by Monarch.
2. Long-term storage degrades the electrolytic capacitor. Thus, the AC drive must be
energized once every 2 years, each time lasting at least 5 hours. The input voltage
must be increased slowly to the rated value with the regulator.
9.2 Warranty Agreement
1. The warranty agreement applies only to the AC drive itself.
2. The warranty period of the product is 18 months (refer to the barcode on the
product). After 18 months, a proper maintenance fee is charged.
3. Within the warranty period, maintenance will be charged for the damages due to
the following causes:
a) Improper operation without following the instructions
- 194 -
b) Fire, flood, and abnormal voltage
c) Using the AC drive for non-recommended functions
4. The maintenance fee is charged according to Inovance's uniform standard. If

there is an agreement, the agreement prevails.
9.3 Description of Fault Levels
The NICE3000new has almost 60 pieces of alarm information and protective functions. It
monitors various input signals, running conditions and feedback signals. If a fault occurs,
the system implements the relevant protective function and displays the fault code.
The controller is a complicated electronic control system and the displayed fault
information is graded into five levels according to the severity. The faults of different levels
are handled according to the following table.
