Hey Guys, this is my first post here, seems like there's a lot of knowledge on this forum I hope to tap (and contribute as much as I can).
I have a DMC that lost it's parameters because of a dead battery. I now have in hand a new battery and the world laptop tool so I'm going to take a stab at returning the car to service. It's a simplex 2 stop so it should be easy right? Any tips? Because I've never done this before...

If you have an older version of World and your elevator has security keyswitched , card reader or keypad you may have a problem as the older World would not let you do security changes. Also sometimes we have found on DMC equipment that you may not be able to communicate at the controller and If that happens try at the car station or cartop. I have seen where you could not do a hoistway set up at the controller but if you move to the selector you are fine. And then load your parameters to a disk one copy for the job one copy for the file in the office then next time its a snap to reload.

regarding danzeitz comment of not being able to communicate from controller port> I have been on more than a few jobs where it is impossible to communicate from the controller port. the problem is usually a wiring mistake, or a dirty port. if the wiring is correct at all ports, then you will be able to communicate from all port locations, mr, cop, door, selector. the wiring is fairly simple, a few minutes of investigating, and you will be able to communicate. I have heard mechanics indicate that you should only do a selector learn from selector port, this is just not true, if every port is functioning properly, you can do any function in the system from any port. If the car is a running car, then all communications from door, to selector, to clc are operating properly, if there is a problem communicating from your tool, the only place to look is at the tool port and associated wiring. correct me if i am wrong.
