Hey green pants, gotta love that name,! The elevator gods must have heard you on this forum and decided to let you know they are always in control. I can't tell you how many times during my 25 years as a mechanic that when you ask about a troublesome job, it seems to breakdown soon after. Very strange indeed. The last time it happened I was having lunch with the guys and asked about a job I had helped him on a few weeks earlier, he said it had not broke down since we worked on it, I said great, guess we fixed it. About ten min later dispatch calls with a occupied on the same car, very strange indeed. Anyway back to business, my 401 went into pit on Monday, I swapped the CPU, and it ran til Friday morning and is in pit again, today I swapped out transducer I/o board. I spent all day Tuesday and most of wednsday running the car and checking on different items, it ran like a charm. I guess I will replace one item at a time till problem is resolved. Will keep u posted

You could try running the 230 velocity and ppt test. It tells you if they are way off but it runs to slow to look at the encoder properly. I would put a new encoder and coupling on they tend to only last a couple years. Also have you swapped your transducer I/o board and adjusted it properly? The cop1 is pretty old but I can't imagine that's it because it was in motion going down, not a load cell rollback problem. Check your ppt locking nut and wiring and verify your first floor level is 10.0 ft. And that your tape isn't riding up on a sheave. Ever looked to see if your TM cam roller is still there?

It's a bit to chime in, but,
I saw an Elevonic 401, (w/the processor on the car top), go into the pit when it was fully loaded. The construction superintendant keyed up his 6 watt walkie talkie, and it didnt just drift downward into the pit, it powered downward. The limits didnt catch it, ended up on the car buffer. Not the same problem, of course, just thought it was interesting.
