Wiring an Otis Series 1 Lobby Call Station
HTML-код

- Today's elevator parts project is an interesting Otis series 1 call station that would have been found in the lobby. This one was definitely a challenge with polishing the panel, making a custom circuit board, and general wiring. In the end, I'm really happy with how this came out!

You never cease to amaze me with your ability to problem solve by eliminating roadblocks and simplifying things. You should see some of the rat's nest God-awful workaround solutions I've come up with on some of the older proprietory computer components I still run across from time to time. (DEC is the worst. They purposely cross-wired common cables so you had to buy theirs... which I can't do since they went out of business in 1998.) At any rate, you'd cringe at some of my "solutions"... but they work.
Thanks! I've done some pretty janky things too.
Elevator buttons are even more special when you realize how many fingers pressed them.
Or you realize how nasty the buttons are xD
A park key switch! This thing is a treasure. It's now safe within the community.
Yeah it's super unique!
This was soooo awesome wiring. I really love your wiring videos. I hope there’s more coming soon. Nice Job Jason. You are the best
Thanks so much!!
Great job on this! I looks great in my collection now that it’s all shiny (and functional)
Glad you like it!
the propetary board you could have tried wiring the lights and buttons on the traces but that would be difficult
Ever think you’d wire the Otis Series 1 COP in the Museum? I think that would look cool.
I might. I want to get mine together too lol
1:14 Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor
And other components!
Yay!
Very nice. Can you please do a wiring tutorial on the Schindler HT Intermediate Call Station? Because I know you’ve already wired the terminal ones.
It’s pretty much the same idea. Gotta make a custom circuit.
Could you convert the Otis S1 COP in the museum into a simulator?
That’s something I’d like to do someday.
Stl elevators I was wondering why didn’t you use the single call button boards on this call button?
I didn’t have any
@@stlelevators at the time?
@@VOLTRONDEFENDER4440 Yeah.
I think Otis Series 1 were the best buttons by Otis ever made (apart from Lexan) What do you think are the best Otis buttons Jason?
Well now you have to make a choice. Series 1 or Lexan. I really like touch buttons because of how interesting they are.
Very nice! The polish is spectacular and the 3D printed board looks solid! And apart from my purely cosmetical thought on the priority service LED's (they seem a little too directional), I have no complaints about the end result! Looking forward to more amazing wiring videos! 👍
(Also, is this your panel, or someone else's?)
Thanks! I also think the LEDs are too directional. This is someone else's.
How was this comment 5 days ago?
@@statecollegewx4060 Maybe 'cause it was unlisted for certain viewer I suppose 'cause I've heard that this channel has membership I think, but I can't remember.
@JimLiElevators I think your right. I forgot this channel had membership
I generally open part videos for member early access.
Is that from Europe? It might be since it says priority service instead of independent service.
Nope.
For a while, I had my status on discord as Copying Proprietary OTIS info, reminded me of this. Would be a shame if someone actually did..
oh lol
Where was this button from?
Not sure exactly
@@stlelevators I've seen this similar to the one Windy City Elevators has.
The button is Sam’s. Idk what building it came from. My series 1 is from the same building.
A building in northern Illinois
@@SPS8elevatorsoflakecounty Thank you!
Why not diffused LEDs? I'd be driven crazy by the bright spots produced by clear domed LEDs 🤣
I didn’t have any at the time
@@stlelevatorsyou can make your own "bootleg" (🤣) diffused LEDs with sandpaper in a pinch.
