The future of lifts is online
Thanks to a smart network, you can monitor the elevator from anywhere you are, ensuring optimal management, reduced waiting times, and an unparalleled experience. Your ascent into the future begins here.
Fusion
Fusion is DMG's cloud-based platform that enables remote, real-time monitoring of lifts equipped with Pitagora 4.0 connected electric system. Just download the Fusion App on your Smartphone or PC and start accessing your lifts in a fast and secure way. Fusion can also connect to the lift controller locally, using the WiFi-Bluetooth interface
Maximizing performance through
preventive and predictive maintanance
The continuous processing of collected data and their comparison with the operational model enable the activation of early maintenance alerts, allowing the detection of issues before they occur. For example, sudden lateral micro-accelerations or interruptions in movement can early indicate the onset of more severe operational defects.
A connected electric system
Connectivity is inherent to Pitagora 4.0.
All controllers come standard with Wi-Fi connectivity, just like smartphones, at no extra cost.
To activate it, two solutions are available:
Locally (machine room / cabin / cabin roof)
Remote connection (via Telemaco II 4G modem)
Plug-and-play installation in record time
Innovation merges with ease, bringing the future of elevators to your fingertips. The Plug&Play system accelerates the entire process: connect, assemble, and experience a new level of riding comfort.
CAR CONNECTION
The lift car is connected to the Control Panel via a flexible 24-pole cable with twisted/shielded pairs for error-free data exchange. For higher shafts (> 55 m) a reinforced version of travelling cable is used.
For lifts up to 14 floors, standard cables between BDUs and the standard COP14 Cabin Interface Board are provided. When more than 14 floors are served, the COP28 interface board in the cabin panel is needed.
LANDINGS
serial wiring
Serial floor interfaces (BDU) connect the LOP elements (call buttons, indicators, key switches) with additional inputs for key switches, fire detectors, etc. The BDU interfaces are connected using 4-pole cables and mini-fit connectors. For lifts up to 14 floors, standard cables are provided. Installations with more than 14 floors served are provided with reinforced cables to prevent problems due to the voltage drops.
LANDINGS
parallel wiring
In parallel connected installations every landing panel is singularly and physically connected to the control panel. A dedicated interface is provided behind every LOP for easy wiring of all pushbuttons, indicators, and key-contacts. Through an electronic board on DIN guide, the controller can manage up to 8 access interfaces. 8-pole RJ45 ethernet cables connect the controllers to each LOP interface. For MODERNIZATIONS where the existing LOPs are kept in operation, all floors are equipped with a screw-terminals interface, which will connect them in parallel to the controller’s board.
GROUPS
of elevators
From the simplest single installation to groups of elevators, PITAGORA 4.0 is the right product. Our controller can brilliantly manage up to 6 elevators in a group. Speed up to 4m/s. In sophisticated elevator systems, different elevators can be programmed for specific functions - such as servicing only particular floors or operating at different speeds. This can enhance the user experience by reducing unnecessary stops and optimizing travel times. Modern grouped elevator systems can optimize their routes and loads based on real-time usage data, which helps in reducing energy consumption or reducing time of travel. Some systems are capable of redistributing energy; for example, one elevator might generate energy through braking which can then be used to power another elevator in the system.
Toc Box
top of car
The Pitagora 4.0 Top-of-Car box is designed to match all requirements of EN81.20/50 code. It includes the remote inspection box and cables to main devices installed on the top of the car (door operator, etc.).Inside the box, the TOC board manages the serial communication between the controller and all the devices installed in the car.
Many functions, one single journey
Pitagora 4.0's software includes numerous features designed to make elevator usage even easier for users and enhance perceived safety.
AUTOMATIC RETURN TO FLOOR
AUTOMATIC RETURN TO FLOOR
The controller can be programmed to automatically take the car to a pre-set floor after a period of inactivity, thus optimizing passenger waiting times at the busiest floor.
TIME ZONING
TIME ZONING
Same as the AUTOMATIC RETURN TO FLOOR function, but with the possibility of programming up to four daily time slots in which to move the lift to the selected floor. This feature is particularly suitable for high-traffic duplex/multiplex systems to reduce waiting times and increase efficiency.
CODE-PROTECTED FLOORS
CODE-PROTECTED FLOORS
This function allows the creation of a custom code. Calls to protected floors will be enabled only after the custom code is entered using the buttons in the car panel.
ANTINUISANCE
ANTINUISANCE
This function is designed to counteract small acts of vandalism in lifts. It allows you to set the number of stops at floors without passengerd entering or leaving the car. Beyond this number, all remaining calls are considered nuisanc ecalls and are therefore canceled
STAY-AT-FLOOR
STAY-AT-FLOOR
By pressing a combination of buttons on the car button panel ([FLOOR BUTTON] + 3x [DOOR OPEN]), the lift can be programmed to stop at the current floor for 5 minutes, preventing calls from other floors. It therefore facilitates loading and unloading operations, for example during a move. The function is instantly canceled by making any car call.
DOOR PRE-OPENING
DOOR PRE-OPENING
It is possible to set the car doors to open just before the lift has fully stopped at a floor, speeding up and optimising lift waiting times (in some cases, a safety circuit and UCM protection is required).
PENTHOUSE + GUEST
PENTHOUSE + GUEST
Enjoy greater security and privacy with direct access to your private apartment or penthouse. This optional feature can be used to temporarily enable a car call button, normally protected by a key, allowing your guests to reach you directly using the lift.
LIVE+, VIDEO SURVEILLANCE SYSTEM
LIVE+, VIDEO SURVEILLANCE SYSTEM
LIVE+ is a simple yet effective video surveillance system, fully integrated into your Pitagora 4.0. It allows passengers to monitor one or more "at risk" exit floors (e.g. the exit to the garage or street level) directly via the in-car Matisse display. The doors only open based on express consent from the passenger using the door open button.
AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY OPERATION
AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY OPERATION
In the event of a power outage, the lift is re-powered via a UPS system to take the car to the nearest (or predetermined) floor and open the doors, allowing passengers to evacuate. A simpler system is also available for gearless traction elevators: the brakes are opened in a controlled way to gently bring the car to the nearest floor by gravity and open the doors.
FIRE EVACUATION
FIRE EVACUATION
In case of fire, this function offers two different evacuation options: single floor or multi floor. Single-floor evacuation: The lift returns to a designated floor. Multi-floor evacuation: Multiple fire evacuation floors can be programmed in cascade. If one is not available because of a fire alarm, the next one becomes the destination.
FLOOR PRIORITY
FLOOR PRIORITY
This key-secured function allows taking control of the lift cabin by giving priority to car calls while all landing calls are disabled. This is vital for lifts located in special buildings such as hospitals.
ENERGY SAVING
ENERGY SAVING
When idle for a prolonged period, the PITAGORA 4.0 controller progressively enters "sleep" and "deep sleep" mode, turning off the car lights, the VVVF inverter, the position indicators and other devices. In this way the energy consumed during stand-by (when typically the lift absorbs up to 90% of the total consumption) is optimized.
TESTS AND MEASUREMENTS
TESTS AND MEASUREMENTS
A series of functions developed to verify that the main system devices are correctly installed:
- UCM test
- limit switch test
- relevelling test
- safety chain test
- door/floor contact test.
AUTOMATIC CALL TEST
AUTOMATIC CALL TEST
This function allows your maintenance technicians to streamline and optimize their interventions on the system, carrying out automatic call tests without the technician actually being present. These tests are feasible both with the system in service and excluding the doors.
PROHIBITED FLOORS
PROHIBITED FLOORS
When you need to exclude access to one or more floors, you can enable this function remotely or on site.
LIFT OFF FUNCTION
LIFT OFF FUNCTION
Via a button on the external button panel, this function can call the car to a preset floor, putting the system in OUT-OF-SERVICE mode; the lift can be reactivated and put back into operation using the same simple process.
