(3-9-2016) This is an AMAZING elevator system. A HUGE thanks to OTIS elevator for the tour. This is just the elevator ride. Tune in later this month for a full tour, including machine room.

+Uphoisting Experiences by Technicalboy3000 Can you go a single video without saying stuff like that!?!?!? Like you wanting Schindler PORT or Thyssnekrupp DSC and not OTIS CompassPlus!!?!?!? I understand you don't like it however things change and this mod was needed. the Westinghouse Selectomatics were vandalized badly, we're developing controller issues like random calls, and also, this is a VERY BUSY "Cathedral" that is more than 30 stories. Not to mention, since this is the cathedral of learning, students go here and they need a ride up to the top FAST so they aren't late for class

@blueauraretriever 8 лет назад

Floridian Elevators What Microprocessor means, if the elevator gets stuck, then after x amount of seconds, it will proceed to the next floor or nearest floor if inside the express zone. I hope this is true, I wouldn't want to be stuck in a Gen2 or Synergy for more than an hour.

@comeradecoyote 7 лет назад

Not fond of the new system. The black plastic and silver plastic and touch screens feel pretty disrespectful to the building itself. Looks very out of place relative to the building itself, whereas the original button enclosure and wall plates fit the building much more nicely. Certainly the new system eases congestion, but is there any actual customization you can get such as face plates or different enclosures that actually match their surroundings better?

They really ought to have designed the cabs to look historic to match the character of the building, but that's my only gripe about what they did..

@patricknedz 8 лет назад

+Star City Elevators The Building is being renovated and many of the floors are complete updated with motion activated lighting and state of the are presentation rooms. Several of the floors look like a newer office building. This is a mixed use building between classrooms and offices. The floors 1-3 still have their character and have the historic value to it. while its a historic building they want to keep it up to date to compete with other schools. Thats why the elevators look so modern.

@NathanDavisVideos 8 лет назад
