 = Relays normally powered (held open), and 
powered down only when access to floors is allowed 
(and during power failure); 
 = Relays normally de-energized (closed), and 
energized only when access to floors is allowed. (No 
floor access during power failure). 
Wiring
: Relays will typically be wired differently based 
on this setting: 
 Requires COM – N/C
 wiring; 
 Requires COM – N/O
 wiring. 
Elevator controller floor selection relays must also be 
wired to the floor call buttons in the same relative 
order for all
 elevator (lift) cabs (such as from lowest to 
highest accessed). The floors must then be entered in 
the same order overall (such as from lowest to 
highest). To set up floors, refer to the floor 
configuration topic. 
Floors (Pertaining to 
Access-Controlled Elevators 
/ Lifts) 
If you change the name or other setting for a floor, this 
will cause that floor to be reset to its default / scheduled 
state (this allows configuration updates to be managed 
properly). To check or re-set the floor state (secure vs. 
desecure), refer to the "Floor" status/control topic. 
Access-Controlled Floors 
Systems with elevator controllers can include 
up to 124 access-controlled floors. These can 
be in a single building, or the total number of 
floors between multiple buildings. 
Each system supports up to 32 elevator cabs (max. 32 
doors plus elevators in total). To set up an elevator and 
its associated reader, refer to "Elevators (Lifts) and 
Associated Readers". 
Panel/Firmware Revision
: Support for elevators and 
controlled floor-access requires V3.0 panel firmware. 
Recommended: 
 V3.2 panel firmware, and  V1.5 
elevator controller firmware. 
Feature-Set and Licensing
: Support for elevators and 
floors requires a 'feature-set' selection of 5
 or higher 
(via Enterprise software licensing). 
For details, refer to "Account-Wide Panel Settings", and 
"Software Activation and Licensing". 
Wiring
: Elevator controller floor selection relays must 
be wired to the floor call buttons in the same relative 
order for all
 elevator (lift) cabs (such as from lowest to 
highest accessed). The floors must then be entered 
here in the same order overall (such as from lowest to 
highest). For an elevator setting that also affects floor 
relay wiring, look for the "Relay Off When Desecure" 
setting under "Elevators (Lifts) and Associated 
Readers".
