If it runs I like it!!! I was brought up on the relay stuff. Otis,Westinhouse,Haughton, US. Did some adjusting on the first versions on micro processor US 1220, 1230. Swift and motion. I stll think the DMC is the best controller ever but would change a few hardware problems. But it looks like the 211 stuff may be as good or better. I need a few more years to see how it holds up.I have been in the office long enough to say drives are not my strong suiet. Adjusted a couple before I went in but not enough to really know them. But I guess what I miss the most would be hunting down shorts or grounds or opens that blow a fuse as soon as the mainline goes in. NOW thats trouble shooting!!!

First, mce hydro, easiest to troubleshoot, Otis 211 units are the best in the business!! Otis guys tell me that many years ago, Otis had no money to produce a new controller, so they just kept improving the 211.....I agree they did the right thing. Elevator controls serial link stuff is a joke!! Nothing but problems and repeat calls, makes us look bad. Tech support stinks!! As far as I am concerned, Schindler stuff is the bottom of the barrell. Lots of sharp edges, none of the sheet metal deburred. Way too many door operator faults, causing call backs. Customers that we take on Schindler units complain about schindlers service. They don't show up, don't support warranty units. I went to a call back with entrapment, customer called from elev. phone and Schindler office said thay might get someone there in a few hours! I got the man out, 6 weeks later, they called us to fix the unit...Schindler never showed up...oh we'll, it makes money for us....Schindler installs the cheapest JUNK....in the U.S. ..
