Standard Specification

Standard Specification

  • Virtual Passenger Optimization Method

    This function probabilistically calculates passenger waiting time, including those future passengers expected to arrive, and enhances the prediction accuracy of the waiting time in the group supervisory control, thereby reducing the passenger waiting time.
    * This function is not applicable to FLEX-NX100.

  • Neuro Assignment

    This function updates the program with the self-learning ability of the Neuro GSC and assigns a hall call to the most suitable elevator. This greatly enhances the accuracy of an advance notice of car arrival.
    * This function is not applicable to FLEX-NX200, 201, and 100.

  • Self-Correction Type Initial Learning

    While letting the system learn by adding updates to the Fuzzy GSC's recommendations, the Neuro GSC automatically develops a group supervisory control algorithm which is more efficient than that of the Fuzzy GSC.
    * This function is not applicable to FLEX-NX200, 201, and 100.

  • Online Adaptive Learning

    This function adjusts Neural Nets automatically so that the most suitable call assignments will be given according to traffic situations specific to each building.
    * This function is not applicable to FLEX-NX200, 201, and 100.

  • Statistical Analysis Learning

    The passenger arrival frequency and corresponding car calls for each of the daily specified time periods are analyzed and stored as long-term learning statistical data, later the stored data is utilized to predict traffic demands.
    * This function is not applicable to FLEX-NX100.

  • Self-Diagnostic Capability

    The expert system monitors the neuro assignments. In case of a failure, the Neural Nets are automatically rebuilt.
    * This function is not applicable to FLEX-NX200, 201, and 100.

  • Fuzzy Group Supervisory Control

    Efficient group supervisory control utilizes Artificial Intelligence (AI) and incorporates the know-how of the group supervisory control experts.
    * This function is not applicable to FLEX-NX100.

  • Arrival Interval Control

    Door open times are finely adjusted. Elevators are kept running at equal intervals to improve the accuracy of advance notice of a car's arrival, especially during rush hours, thus reducing waiting times.
    * This function is not applicable to FLEX-NX100.

  • Immediate Announcement of a Serving Car

    At the press of a hall button, a hall lantern and a chime will immediately notify people waiting at the landing which car will serve the call.
    * This function is not applicable to FLEX-NX100.

  • Up-Peak Operation

    To cope with a concentration of passengers at the main or lobby floor during up-peak periods, the FLEX-NX300, 200, or 201 automatically adjusts the arrival intervals for elevators to provide efficient service, thus improving transport efficiencies.
    * The FLEX-NX100 provides efficient elevator services under pre-scheduled management.
    * This function is an optional specification with additional charges for FLEX-NX100.

  • Lunch Time Operation

    This function provides efficient elevator services during the first half of a lunch time period by distributing the call assignments in order to prevent load bypassing. During the second half of the period, preferential services are provided to the floors where calls are concentrated.
    * This function is not applicable to FLEX-NX100.

  • Down-Peak Operation

    This function provides efficient elevator services to improve transport efficiency during down-peak periods when many passengers are traveling to the main floor.
    * This function is an optional specification with additional charges for FLEX-NX100.

  • Off-Peak Operation

    During off-peak periods, the FLEX-NX300, 200, or 201 allows an elevator that has served all its assigned calls to return to the main floor, and it automatically distributes other elevators throughout the building to efficiently respond to future hall calls. The number of operating elevators is restricted to save energy.
    The FLEX-NX100 allows elevators that have served all the assigned calls to be distributed to predetermined floors to effectively respond to future calls.
    * This function is an optional specification with additional charges for FLEX-NX100.

  • Separation of an Out-of-Order Elevator

    An elevator that is not working properly will automatically be separated from the group, while the remaining elevators continue efficient operations under group supervisory control.

  • Independent Operation

    A specified car can operate separately from the group to perform an independent operation, in which case it responds only to car calls.

  • Operation with Non-Uniform Car Stops

    When service zones of elevators are different, that is, the number of car stops is not uniform for each car and specified cars are required to serve the roof and basement floors, the group supervisory control will remain in effect.
    * Elevator services may deteriorate in this operation mode.

  • Call Assignment Backup

    The basic call assignment function is maintained even when the main GSC functions are out of order or under inspection.

  • Machine Room PC Terminal

    Functions such as monitoring and traffic data collection are available from a PC terminal located in the machine room.
    * This function is not applicable to FLEX-NX201 and 100.
