Brief NICE3000 Instruction Manual Component Description
The function code groups displayed on the keypad are described as follows:
1. F0: display of floor and running direction
The F0 menu is displayed on the keypad by default upon power-on. The first 7-segment
LED indicates the running direction, while the last two 7-segment LEDs indicate the current floor of the elevator.
When the elevator stops, the first 7-segment LED has no display. When the elevator runs, the 1st 7-segment LED indicates the running direction.
When a system fault occurs, the 7-segment LEDs automatically display the fault code and blink. If the fault is reset, the F0 menu is displayed.
2. F1: command input of the running floor
After you enter the F1 menu, the 7-segment LEDs display the bottom floor (F6-01). You can press the UP key to set the destination floor within the range of lowest to top and then press the SET key to save the setting. The elevator runs to the destination floor, and the 7-segment LEDs automatically switch over to the F0 menu at the same time.
3. F2: fault reset
After you enter the F2 menu, the 7-segment LEDs display 0. When you press the UP button to select 1 and press the SET button, the system fault is reset. After the system fault is reset, the 7-segment LEDs automatically switch over to the F0 menu.
4. F3: time display
After you enter the F3 menu, the 7-segment LEDs display the current system time circularly.
5. F4: contract number display
After you enter the F4 menu, the 7-segment LEDs display the user's contract number.
6. F5: running times display
After you enter the F5 menu, the 7-segment LEDs display the elevator running times circularly.
7. F6: reserved
User setting is prohibited.
8. F7: shaft auto-tuning command input
After you enter the F7 menu, the 7-segment LEDs display 0. You can select 0 or 1 here, where 1 indicates the shaft auto-tuning command available. After you select 1 and press the SET button, shaft auto-tuning is implemented if the conditions are met. Meanwhile, the 7-segment LEDs switch over to the F0 menu. After shaft auto-tuning is complete, F7 is back to 0 automatically. If shaft auto-tuning conditions are not met, fault code "E35" is displayed.
9. F8: test function
After you enter the F8 menu, the 7-segment LEDs display 00. The setting range of F8 is
1–4, described as follows:

4.2 Description of Shaft Signals
In elevator control, the car position needs to be identified based on shaft position signals, implementing stop at floors accurately and guaranteeing safe running.
These shaft position signals include the up final limit switch, down final limit switch, up limit switch, down limit switch, up slow-down switch, low slow-down switch and leveling switches.
- 33 -
Use of the NICE3000 Brief NICE3000 Instruction Manual
4.2.1 Limit Switch and Final Limit Switch
Stop the car at the top (or bottom) leveling position, and mount the limit switch 100 mm away from the top (or bottom) leveling position. That is, the limit switch shall act when the car continues to run upward (or downward) 100 mm from the top (or bottom) leveling position.
The final limit switch is mounted above the up limit switch or below the down limit switch. It is usually 100 to 150 mm away from the top (or bottom) leveling position.
4.2.2 Slow-Down Switch
Slow-down switch is one of the key protective components of the NICE3000, protecting the elevator from over travel top terminal or over travel bottom terminal at maximum speed when the elevator position becomes abnormal.
The default deceleration rate ("Special deceleration rate" in F3-08) of the NICE3000 system is 0.9 m/s
2
. In the condition that the rated speed and the special deceleration rate are certain, the slow-down distance can be obtained via the following formula:
Slow-down distance = Rated speed x Rated speed/(2 x special deceleration rate)
Then you can get the mounting positions of the slow-down switches that correspond to various elevator speeds.
The recommended positions of slow-down switches are listed in the following table.
Table 4-1 Recommended positions of slow-down switches

Slow-down switch 2
Slow-down switch 3

3.2 m
2.4 m/s < V ≤3.7 m/s
1.3 m
3.2 m
8.0 m
Note
• "L" in the table indicates the landing height. The default special deceleration rate is 0.9 m/s and the acceleration rate and deceleration rate are 0.6 m/s
2
.
• The positions of slow-down switches are calculated on the basis of default value (special deceleration rate 0.9 m/s
2
, and acceleration rate and deceleration rate are 0.6 m/s
2 ,
2
). Decreasing the acceleration rate and deceleration rate or increasing the special deceleration rate does not affect the safety, but increasing the acceleration rate and deceleration rate or decreasing the special deceleration rate may bring safety hazard. If any value needs to be changed, calculate proper slow-down distance for mounting the slow-down switches.
4.2.3 Leveling Switch
The NICE3000 system allows the use of 1 to 3 leveling switches. If only one leveling sensor is used, the corresponding function code which is used for input of leveling signal is allocated with function 03 (NO input of door zone signal).
There is no special requirement on the length of the flag. It is recommended to use a flag of
80–200 mm long. Ensure that flags at all landings have the same length and are mounted vertically.
- 34 -
Brief NICE3000 Instruction Manual Use of the NICE3000
You need to add two re-leveling switches if applying the door pre-open function. 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 for more information.
4.3 Typical Commissioning

6. After ensuring that the circuits are normal, set the related parameters based on the requirements and regulations on the use of the elevator to prepare for inspection-speed commissioning.
4.3.2 Commissioning at Inspection Speed
To implement accurate control on the motor, motor auto-tuning must be performed before the use of the NICE3000. Ensure that the installation and wiring satisfy the safety requirements and technical specifications before the auto-tuning.
■
No-load Auto-tuning
1. Asynchronous motor
Note
For the asynchronous motor, after F1-11 is set to 2 (No-load auto-tuning), the motor will run. You must take off the steel rope and release the brake manually.
To perform no-load auto-tuning for asynchronous motor, do as follows:
1) Set F0-01 (Command source selection) to 0 (Operation panel control) and press
STOP
RES
on the operation panel to reset the current faults.
2) Enter the motor nameplate parameters correctly.
• F1-01 (Rated motor power)
• F1-02 (Rated motor voltage)
• F1-03 (Rated motor current)
• F1-04 (Rated motor frequency)
• F1-05 (Rated motor rotational speed)
- 37 -
Use of the NICE3000 Brief NICE3000 Instruction Manual
Then, set F1-12 (Encoder lines per revolution) based on the encoder nameplate.
3) Remove the load from the motor completely. Set F1-11 to 2 (No-load auto-tuning).
"TUNE" is displayed on the operation panel. Release the brake manually and press
RUN
on the operation panel. The motor enters the excitation state first, and starts to rotate after about 2s. The motor accelerates to the full speed and then decelerates to stop. Then the RUN contactor opens. After the motor stops rotating, apply the brake manually. Then, the motor auto-tuning is complete. During the auto-tuning, the controller automatically measures the motor parameters:
• F1-06 (Stator resistance)
• F1-07 (Rotor resistance)
• F1-08 (Leakage inductance)
• F1-09 (Mutual inductance)
• F1-10 (Motor magnetizing current)
4) Run the motor in operation panel control and set F0-02 (Speed reference in operation panel control) to a proper value. For the consideration of safety, the system does not output commands for the running contactor and brake contactor. You have to press down the running contactor and release the brake manually.
If the motor jitters or E20 is reported in operation panel control, exchange any two output power cables or exchange phases A and B of the encoder, and then perform the motor auto-tuning again.
2. PMSM
Note
For PMSM, after F1-11 is set to 2 (No-load auto-tuning), the motor will run. You must take off the steel rope and release the brake manually.
To perform no-load auto-tuning for PMSM, do as follows:
1) Check the motor power cables and encoder wiring.
Ensure that the UVW power cables of the motor are properly connected to the UVW terminals of the controller, and the encoder's AB, UVW or CDZ signal wires are properly connected to the AB, UVW or CDZ terminals of the PG card.
2) After the system is powered on, set F0-01 (Command source selection) to 0 (Operation panel control) and press

RUN automatically calculates F1-06 (Encoder initial angle) and F1-08 (Wiring mode). After three or more times of auto-tuning, compare the obtained values. The value deviation of F1-06 shall be within ±5°. The values of F1-08 shall be the same.
Note
If the obtained value of F1-08 is an odd number, it indicates that the output phase sequence is incorrect. In this case, you can run the motor but cannot complete with-load auto-tuning. If withload auto-tuning is required, exchange any two UVW phases of power output to ensure correct phase sequence. Therefore, the value of F1-08 is an even number.
6) Run the motor in operation panel control and set F0-02 (Speed reference in operation panel control) to a proper value. For the consideration of safety, the system does not output commands for the RUN contactor and brake contactor. You have to press down the running contactor and release the brake manually. The motor current is usually less than 1 Amp in no load condition.

RUN
on the operation panel. The controller starts motor auto-tuning, measures the stator resistance, rotor resistance and leakage inductance successively and automatically calculates the motor's mutual inductance and no-load current. After the auto-tuning is complete, the running contactor opens.
4) Run the motor at the inspection speed and check:
• Whether the running current is normal
• Whether the actual running direction of the elevator is consistent with the given direction
• Whether the pulse direction is correct
Ensure that F4-03 (Low byte of current floor position) increases when you press the UP key and decreases when you press the DOWN key.
The elevator running direction and pulse direction can be modified by F2-10 (Elevator running direction).
2. PMSM
Note
• Ensure that the UVW power cables of the motor are connected to the UVW terminals of the controller properly.
• Ensure that the AB, CDZ signal wires of the ERN1387 SIN/COS encoder are connected to the
AB, CDZ terminals of the PG card properly. The AB, UVW signal cables of the UVW encoder are connected to the AB, UVW terminals of the PG card properly.
• Make sure that F8-01 (Pre-torque selection) is set to 0 (Pre-torque invalid). Otherwise, the elevator runaway may result during the auto-tuning.
• If the auto-tuning still fails (the motor does not run or suddenly runs in one direction and then stops) when the UVW power cables of the motor are correctly wired, exchange any two output power cables of the controller and perform the motor auto-tuning again.
• Ensure that there is nobody in the shaft because the auto-tuning process is dangerous.

4.3.4 Commissioning at Normal Speed
After ensuring that running at inspection speed is normal, you can start commissioning at normal speed. Shaft auto-tuning is required before the commissioning at normal speed.
Ensure that 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 position switches are installed properly.
2. The elevator is at the bottom floor and the down slow-down 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 NICE3000 system is not in the fault alarm state. If there is a fault at the moment, press
STOP
RES
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.
4.3.5 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.

The open time of the brakes varies according to the types and the response time of the brakes is greatly influenced by the ambient temperature. Too 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 F3-19 and F3-20 to check whether the brake release time influences the riding comfort.

1: Load cell pre-torque compensation
The controller with the load cell sensor pre-outputs the torque matched the load so as to ensure the riding comfort of the elevator.
• Motor driving status: full-load up, no-load down
• Motor braking status: full-load down, no-load up
"Pre-torque offset" is actually the elevator balance coefficient, namely, the percentage of car load to rated load when the car cage and counterweight are balanced.
The drive gain or brake gain scales the elevator's current 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 sensor 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. To adjust the startup, do as follows:
• In the driving state, increasing the value of F8-03 could reduce the rollback during the elevator startup, but a too high value could cause car lurch at start.
• In braking state, increasing the value of F8-04 could reduce the jerk in command direction during the elevator startup, but a too high value could cause car lurch at start.
2: Automatic pre-torque compensation
This function is enabled only when the ERN1387 or ECN1313 encoder is applied. The system automatically adjusts the compensated torque at startup.
a. Gradually increase F8-02 (Zero servo current coefficient) until that the rollback or jerk in command direction is cancelled at brake release and the motor does not vibrate.
b. Increase the value of F8-02 (Zero servo current coefficient) if the motor jitters when F8-
04 (Zero servo speed loop TI) is less than 1.00.
c. Motor vibration and acoustic noise indicate excessive value of F8-03 (Zero servo speed loop KP). Use the default value of F8-03.

Mechanical Construction
The mechanical construction affecting the riding comfort involves the guide rail, guide shoe, steel rope, installation of the 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 of the rail, rail surface flatness, smoothness of the guide rail connection and parallelism between two guide rails
(including rails at the counterweight side).
2. The tightness of the guide shoes (including the one at 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. Too big 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 may be influenced during running if the brake arm is installed too tightly or the brake is released incompletely.
5. If the car weight is unbalanced, it will cause uneven stress of the guide shoe that connects the car and the guide rail. As a result, the guide shoe 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 the oscillation is caused by resonance, reduce the resonance by increasing/decreasing the car weight or counterweight and add resonance absorbers at connections of the components. For example, place rubber blanket under the motor.
4.3.6 Door Machine Commissioning
As shown in the second figure in section 4.1, 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 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.
- 48 -
Brief NICE3000 Instruction Manual Use of the NICE3000
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.
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.
• Segment C ON, segment E OFF: The system receives the door open limit signal and the door is in the open state.
• 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 in the open or close state manually and query parameter F5-35. If the following screen is displayed, it indicates that the door machine controller feeds back the correct door open and close signals.

6.1 Parallel Mode and Group Mode
6.1.1 Parameter Setting
The NICE3000 has the parallel control function. Two NICE3000 controllers can exchange the elevator information by means of CAN or RS485 communication, coordinating response of the two elevators to hall calls and improving the elevator efficiency.
The related parameters are set in the following table.

Bit = 1 when CN5 is used for the parallel mode
Note: The CAN communication port is used for the parallel mode by default. It is unnecessary to set F6-09.
6.1.2 Setting of CTB Addresses
In parallel mode, the CTB address jumper of the master elevator (elevator whose SN is 1) is the same as that used for the control of single elevator. That is, J2 is shorted in the ON position. The CTB address jumper of the slave elevator (elevator whose SN is 2) is shorted in the PARALLEL position. Otherwise, CTB data communication of the elevators becomes abnormal.
For description of CTB terminals, see section 3.3. The following figure shows connection of two elevators in parallel mode by means of CAN communication.

6.1.3 Parallel Mode Using RS485 Communication (Monitoring Port)
When CAN communication is applied to parallel mode, 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 the monitoring port of 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. In field application, connect the RS232/RS485 converter to CN2 of the MCB, and then correspondingly connect the two signal terminals (D+, D-) of the RS485 side of the converter via a cable. Set F6-09 to Bit2 (Parallel implemented at monitoring port).
The following figure shows the parallel mode implemented at the monitoring port.
- 73 -
System Application Brief NICE3000 Instruction Manual
Figure 6-2 Parallel connection at the monitoring port
6.1.4 Setting of Physical Floors
Physical floors, relative to the NICE3000 control system, are defined by the installation position of the leveling flag. The floor (such as the ground floor) at which the lowest leveling flag is installed corresponds to physical floor 1. The top physical floor is the accumulative number of the leveling flags. In parallel mode, the physical floor numbers of the same floor for two elevators are consistent.
If two elevators in parallel stop at different floors, physical floors should start with the lowest leveling flag installation 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 flag should be installed there. The user 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 addresses of one floor are set the same for the two elevators.
Note
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. 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.

6.1.5 Group Mode
The group control board is required if three or more elevators work in group mode. For details, see the Monarch's Use Instruction of Group Control Board.
6.2 Emergency Evacuation at Power Failure
Passengers may be trapped in the car if power failure suddenly happens during the use of the elevator. The evacuation function at power failure is designed to solve the problem.
The evacuation function is implemented in the following two modes:
• Uninterrupted power supply (UPS)
• Shorting PMSM stator
Here we first introduce the implementation through the NICE3000's shorting PMSM stator scheme, which can save energy and improve safety.
6.2.1 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 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.
