Otis Lift Interface

The AC2000 Otis Panorama lift interface provides seamless communication between AC2000 and Otis lifts via a high-level software interface.
 

The AC2000 interface uses industry standard TCP/IP protocol for communications between the AC2000 server and Otis Lift management server.

The Otis Lift Control integration is designed around the concept of having readers on each floor to which a lift can travel, in order to activate hall Lift Call buttons.

In some, but not all lifts there is a reader in the lift cab itself, used to activate the floor selection buttons. In those lifts without a cab reader the floor selection buttons are activated by the lift call card swipe when the lift arrives on the appropriate calling floor.
CEM devices located at either the lift hall or lift cabin communicate directly to the AC2000 Real Time Controller (RTC) via TCP/IP. This information is then used to inform the Otis Lift management server, which lift buttons to enable.

Timeout parameters relating to lift call buttons and floor selection buttons can also be configured via the AC2000 software.
