Unlocking floors or floor groups from elevator doors

  1. Select an elevator door or a group of elevator doors.
  2. To unlock a previously locked floor group or floors, use the following options:
    1. For a floor group, click the Unlock floor group button in the toolbar and select the required floor group.
    2. For individual floors, click the Unlock elevator door (individual floors) button in the toolbar and select the required floors.
  3. Click OK, then click Yes.
    Note: These steps only enable the elevator floors or floor group that are defined with an X in the column of the Floor group definition menu. For a door defined with an automatic unlocking schedule, the floors remain unlocked until the next valid change of the unlocking schedule, or an operator manually locks the door.

    A door defined without an unlocking schedule can only be locked by a manual command. To lock all previously unlocked floors, use the Unlock option in the Manual operation on doors menu.

    When a manual unlocking operation finishes, only floors that are defined with an X in the field of the Floor group definition menu are available for selection. If the system loses communication and the controllers are working in stand-alone mode, then you can only select the floors marked with an X and the access schedule is ignored.
