Note
Selecting LEARN will start an operation in which you learn accurate floor levels as the car
moves up the hoistway. Selecting FILL lets you skip the learn operation and just plug in an aver-
age value for floor heights so that you can take the time to perform a learn operation later.

Selecting LEARN starts a process in which you move the car up the hoistway a floor at a time,
leveling and saving at each floor.
1. Press N. The display will prompt: Go to landing 1.
2. Bring the car as close to level at landing 1 as is practical. Press S.
3. The display will ask you to enter an offset to make up for any difference in level between
car and floor: xxx.x In. Adj + - Next when done.
4. Measure the offset (if any).
5. If the car is above the floor, use the + (plus) button to enter the offset value.
If the car is below the floor, use the - (minus) button to enter the offset value.
6. Press N. The display will prompt you to move to the next landing. The process will
repeat at each landing until all have been learned.
