Motion 4000™ Traction Control
Ideal traction control solution for low-rise to mid-rise projects
The MCE Motion 4000 traction elevator control is designed to squarely meet the needs of elevator
installations requiring speeds to 400 feet per minute, service up to 32 stops, and elevator groups to 8
cars. Motion 4000 makes the jobs of installers, adjusters, and maintenance personnel as straightforward
as possible, stressing minimal hardware requirements, "out-of-the-box" job readiness, and
simple adjustment.
Installers
- Only final limit switches are required. Slowdown and ETS switches are eliminated.
- No door zone magnets required.
- Hall call fixtures are connected serially along a simple, four-wire drop, providing singnal communication and fixture power.
- Additional buttons or key switches can be connected to the hall call bus using a small node board
provided by MCE.
- Absolute position/speed feedback uses a lightweight 1/2-inch wide encoded tape. Easy to hang;
absolute position at all times - even under power loss.
- Traveler and hoistway cable wire counts reduced to approximately 16 conductors. Easy to hang and requiring
less compensation.
- Universal I/O boards for field connections accept 24 to 120 Volt inputs, AC or DC. Standard 24, 48, and 110 Volt compatibility with no board changes.
Adjusters
- Factory pre-adjusted per job requirements.
- Easy, hand-held entry device lets you make a single, inspection-speed run through the
hoistway, stopping and setting floor levels as you go. Hand-held device device connects in the car, cartop or in
the machine room.
- Selectable, pre-determined performance curves or create your own.
- Simple parameter entry using the basic (LCD display/button entry) or optional (color/
touchscreen) entry devices.
Maintenance
- Recommended "spares stock" is two boards; one universal I/O and one hall node board.
- Plug the hand-held entry device into any controller or car CAN Bus and diagnose the entire
system.
- Components shared with MCE's Motion 2000 hydraulic controller.
