Required Hardware: Basic Elevator Control

To implement a basic elevator control system using DIN Rail modules, you'll need a WX Controller and:

  • One card reader and reader port for each elevator car. You can use the Controller's onboard reader ports, or use a PRT‑RDM2‑DIN Reader Expander.
  • One Form C relay output for each controlled floor, per elevator car. This means a building with 4 floors and 2 elevator cars requires 8 relays. You can use the Controller's onboard relays, a PRT‑RDM2‑DIN, a PRT‑PX8‑DIN, or a PRT‑IO84‑DIN.

 

Relays are only required for controlled floors. Uncontrolled floors (such as a ground level or unsecured carpark), do not need relays.
