Gerard Landry independent service is basically for inspection. The elevator won't respond to calls but can still be operated from the COP by pressing your floor button and holding the door close button until the door is closed. Basically it is like fire service.
I know why the safety door sensors are disabled; the sensors know no difference between smoke or a person as they both give off IR. And if smoke comes through the door it will refuse to close which is really dangerous so it disables it to stop the risk
@@moonbeam112 Recall station initiates P1 (Phase 1) recall (disables elevator buttons (station, car) for entire bank (group of cars operating under one master elevator machine or multiple elevator machines under one building)); car recall station initiates P2 (Phase 2) recall (disables buttons within recalled car only).
i wish i had that key just to get many of the damn elevators i ride just to move..it never fails.... I am late for work get on a mass transit elevator hit the up (or down) button and it sits and waits waits waits... I hit the door close button of course nothing happens it still waits... then just as the door finally starts closeing someone pops it back open by sticking there damn hand in the way as it closes then we wait wait wait wait wait starts to close some other pecker stops the elevator and we wait and wait and wait then BUUUZZZZZZZ the damn "door open to long" buzzer goes off and the door sssssslowlyyyyy cccccclosesssss>---------< >< If that isn't bad enough the same crap happens again at the office highrise I work at only now because the elevator didn't go up right away and I can't make the doors close right away 7 people have managed to slip on and all of them are getting off BELOW my damn floor making the elevator stop and the doors open and guess what.... have to wait and wait and wait and wait for the god damn door to close again each time someone gets off a floor!!!!!!!!!! making me 25 minuets more late than I already am for work.... now ask me....Do I want this key friggin' helllllllllsssss YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@Ih8kone Some fire alarm panels (2015-present) now have the ability to dispatch the fire department (73% of those panels that can dispatch FD are from Kidde; 18% are from ADT; 9% are from independent companies).
if I go to this comfort inn in burkvill va. I will go to the elevator i will go to the basement not in fire service one vid. I saw Rico access the basement
@DieselDucy Andrew, that buzzer was very noisy, but it’s also cool. The cat was very cute in the ending of the video. The cat’s name I assume is Tigger. He was trying to bite your hand when you were petting him.
Security allows you to bypass floor restrictions, while independent service allows you to take control of the elevator (disable hall calls, no ADA door close buttons)
On elevators that are connected to the building's fire alarm system, bypass resets the fire condition on the fire alarm control panel. This is usually only used if a smoke detector was tripped, the elevator went into fire service, and it needed a reset. Basically, bypass just turns it off if it was activated automatically.
Interesting, I don't think that's allowed where I live. Here, the fire department doesn't reset fire alarm panels and only someone responsible for the building can reset it.
Did you know that Comfort Inns have to be less than 20 years old? If it's more than 20 years old, it has to be called something else (like a Quality Inn).
@agentz100 its a key you can open the outside door with when the elevator is not there. its bad because someone could come along, open it and fall down the shaft.... not real pretty...
Who has watched this video on a 1920 x 1080 monitor and stuck a piece of plastic in the middle? Like if you did and also reply at what part you took the plastic off
I also heard the reason elevator's should not be used in fires was when they had the heat-sensitive buttons. Fires would trigger the elevator to an engulfed floor, causing the rider to become trapped (elevator always on call).
Even with regular buttons a burned wire could short and trigger the elevator to stop there. There are other hazards as well. Firstly, the fire might burn up the power cables and cause it to get stuck. Secondly, if the fire is relatively close to the elevator, moving it past the fire floor could create a draft that helps the fire spread faster from where it is.
