SAVE COSTS WITH INTELLIGENT MONITORING Installation of a digital emergency call tele- phone provides an opportunity to implement a complete communication platform to which a sensor or control unit can be connected. As a result, lift operators can monitor the condition of the lifts remotely, test alarms, check controls and collect all kinds of data. This enables them to predict when a component has to be repaired or exchanged, for example. A technician only has to be on site when really necessary. Many problems can already be corrected in advance with predictive maintenance, which in turn can reduce failures and maintenance costs. More- over, the working time of the technicians can be recorded on site by an in- and output mo- dule. Lift operators gain more control over the work actually performed and invoicing becomes transparent. MODE OF INSTALLATION A digital communication platform like DCP (Digi- tal Communication Platform) from Avire can be installed without much effort. Modern CAN-bus systems combine all components needed in one module and need only two wires in the lift cable. The voice unit for operation can be mounted on the lift car. There is a GSM interface for the mobile com- munications network in the car module and an M2M gateway for machine communication. A CAN-bus connection links the audio modules in the car, shaft and machine-room. The data of the individual modules are despatched to a cloud platform via GSM and merged. This allows the devices to be administered and monitored under a central user interface. But it needs to be borne in mind that GSM modules are unsuitable for digital communica- tion, since they use the voice channel for trans- mission to and from the call centre. Irritating noises of the kind one is familiar with from ana- logue telephony can still arise here, especially DTMF tones. Only replacement by a completely digital solution, such as the DCP from Avire, can eliminate these problems by reliably transmit- ting the data via the VDS protocol to and from the control centre. ⇤ MATTHEW DAVIES avire-global.com The author is a market insight and innovation manager – Americas & EIMEA at Avire 33 PRODUKTE  PRODUCTS
