From the 90s onwards, Mitsubishi tend to put quite some thought into creating subtle features that enhances passenger experience - especially at the lobby (call chimes, lanterns).
I swear to god, I have never seen or heard a Mitsubishi elevator break down, not to mention the chimes are great and the design dosent dissapoint either
When I was in Hong Kong, the Hotel I stayed at had some 90's Mitsubishi lifts in it with an interesting feature. When you pressed the button, it would immediately chime once to tell you which lift was coming (and a lantern would light up). When the lift arrived, it would chime twice and the lantern would flash.
Note that the chime around 8:25 and 8:43 plays an ascending or descending tone based on current running direction. But, a design flaw makes it play an ascending tone coming up to you before the arrow switches down. (The flashing arrow outside changes immediately, but the in car arrow only changes after flashing digits, and the car controls the chime) Compare to the familiar chime at 9:28 Hall call cancelling also works and the elevator will make the nearest stop without door opening.
in malaysia mitsubishi,schindler,hitachi and toshiba are quite popular there you can a lot of those fixtures even schindler M-line is very popular here
Oh thanks! I’ve been looking for this song for ages (honestly the catchiest of all 4 of them), and I initially thought it came from the RU-vid Audio Library lol!
There's another hidden fact for some mitsubishi- when the lift is not in use for long periods of time the indicator dims slightly. When it gets used again then the indicator brightens back to normal.
Once I rode a HDB Mitsubishi lift(Singapore) with a call-cancelled feature The lift was going to level one So deselect 1 It work and the lift just stopped at a random floor(the floor it can stop to)
I also found an interesting example where they only upgraded the operator panel and not the brains of the elevator, so you have the large matrix display in the car but doesn't flash the arrival floor or direction arrow on the outside.
There is 1 fact about Mitsubishi elevators that is the voice saying sorry to keep you waiting that happened to a Mitsubishi elevator I was staying at it was holiday Inn ln Saudi Arabia
My condo have keyhole at the bottom floor and the freight elevator have keyhole on the floor that not on the bottom or top floor is that MRL or an MMR?
Unless there is a photo of your condo elevator, I can't tell if it's MRL or not. Basically if a keyhole is on the top floor call button panel then it's definitely MRL.
Btw, speaking about Mitsubishi, do you know that the elevators at Hilton Nusa dua (formerly Grand Nikko) have been replaced into Mitsubishi NEXIEZ-MRs? I was curious on what elevators that building used to have.
Knew that already. Someone said that they were originally 1990s Mitsubishi (probably GPS) but then modernized by LINE in the 2000s or 2010s. Glad to see they've been replaced with something better.
@@idl3k_elev : I have no idea why they decide to mod them into LINE at the first place tbh. I can't imagine how the mod looks like back then, must've been "unsatisfactory" considering how high-class the hotel is. Glad that they replaced them back to a proper set of elevators.
I've also seen an elevator which the outside screen is similar to that in 0:35 , but the font of the number is different -- the number is bolded than the one in 0:35 . How can that be happen?
Btw klo yg di UNJ itu ada voiceover tapi kok gak ada chime pintu menutup ya? Apa itu custom built (mengingat yg voice bahasa Inggris sebelum bahasa Indo itu beda dengan voiceover bahasa Inggris biasa seperti yg di Neo Soho dulu)?
It seems that it's caused by the fact that (most) Mitsubishis refuse to let you cancel a car call it's already trying to fulfil, even if there are more than one. For example, if the lift were heading to level 12, then I wouldn't be able to cancel it, even if B2 is selected.
Mau tanya, klo DDE pertama di Surabaya (which is di TP5) kan voiceoverny cuma "going up/going down" saja, nggak ada voiceover lantai, kira2 itu masuk ke AAN-B/G?
