    • @mrmattandmrchay
      @mrmattandmrchay  8 лет назад +11

      The video wasn't aimed at anyone in particular, it just reflects my stance on life that if you respect people then in the long term people class you higher and opportunities come you way. I asked for access, the building manager was obliging and I didn't push my luck in the company of the engineer that took me up there.
      Talking of respect, I've only ONCE had to search for a job which was when I left school at 16. After this, I've worked for 8 different companies and I've been handed opportunities to work at different companies and better positions. The company I work for now, I've been here for almost 8 years. When people in my previous company noticed things going down the pan, word went out that mrmatt was looking to move companies and my previous manager had a connection to the manager where I work now. He put a good word in and I managed to get out before things did go downhill. WHY? Because I respect people (until such time as they don't deserve it). People remember... "mrmatt? oh yeah he's alright he is".
      Disrespect people and this is also remembered and I have a long memory.
      I can tell that the people you are referring to have seen this video and assumed that I was referring to them. It very interesting and to be honest I can't be bothered, don't have the time and basically I don't give a damn. My life evolves around my family, my job, kickboxing and helping out kids in other kickboxing classes, friends and then (if I have any time left) youtube. I film stuff when I have time, stuff that I consider interesting, then I spend loads of time editing then upload it in the hope that others also find it interesting.
      Anyway, after all that, thanks for the comment :) :D

  • @Dana_Danarosana
    @Dana_Danarosana 7 лет назад +2

    Wow. I would've bet $1M it was Mitsubishi until I saw the nameplate!! The flashing arrows steered me towards Mitsubishi and the floor indicator is IDENTICAL to EVERY 90's Mitsubishi I've seen in Los Angeles and San Francisco... and then you panned up!! Holy crap!! I'm glad I didn't bet!! I find the reference to computing machines interesting though. I grew up during the 70's & 80's when home computing machines were just starting to be a real thing. I owned all 5 versions of the TRS/Tandy Color Computer and everyone I knew was amazed what they could do. However, the general public was just dabbling in kid's stuff compared to what the computer science world was doing. People forget that the US military defenses were already being processed by massive, powerful (for the time) computing machines in the 1950's and were entirely managed by computers in 1957 when IBM's Semi-Automatic Ground Environment (SAGE) went into use. While elevator systems were nowhere as complex as SAGE, Selectomatic and Autotronic controller/dispatching systems were already "thinking" at this point. The general public STARTED to THINK they understood computers after the release of the Mac and even more so with the release of Win/95. At any rate, it's just interesting... With the first computers in the late 1940's, the first e-mail in 1971, and the first home computers in 1974, it's interesting how many people think that computers didn't even exist prior to the 1990's...

  • @sebastiannielsen
    @sebastiannielsen Год назад

    Why the diverting sheaves? Seems like they wanted the motor room close to the top floor, so the whole motor assembly wouldn't fit on top of hoistway (like you "normally" do it) so they needed to divert the cables so they could fit the motor where it would fit? Or is this a way to fit many lifts very close to each other which means the counterweights have their own hoistway where there is 5, 6 counterweights togerher?

    • @mrmattandmrchay
      @mrmattandmrchay  Год назад +1

      Lack of room at the top of the shaft, especially above the lift when it's at the top floor. So the shaft was extended up further into the plant room which meant there was no room to mount the machine on top of it. So the ropes were diverted to the side where the machine (it's quite large as you can see) would definately fit and be easy to work on.

    yes indeed respect for the machine and controller panels in the machine room is paramount As you commented 415V of three phase power within. It's a well designed machine room with the cages around the machines and controllers, thus safety was given top priority. Was this a double wrapped traction machine? I believe I saw a third shieve, near the driven shieve.

    • @mrmattandmrchay
      @mrmattandmrchay  8 лет назад

    In the 80s the statement "computer controlled" or "microprocessor controlled" appeared very often. One example were the tape deck using logic transport with track searching, auto something ... they had, in fact, a "microcomputer" inside running a small program. To me computer controlled could be, just a propietary computer like most of the lifts use, or, perhaps an industrial ones that are VERY VERY small footprint, proper computers not bigger than a letter size book. I have seen a BIG lcd screen with graphic representations of the lifts in a big building, which had 8 lifts, all linked. The screen was in the lobby, not sure way, it look pretty early 90s graphics, DOS ones. But I dont believe there is a comptuer controlling all of them, instead just a data terminal and display. Probably they could fit the dispatcher in the computer, but each lift most have it own rugged controller in the end. If dispatcher crash, ok, just keep running without any optimization. To me is still posible to fully fit a lift in a PC, just feel a bit weird triyng to think them as 7x24x365, when even probably servers cant reach that. I like the respect mention. Is all about respect. A shame you can get into this controller, but, if something goes wrong the guy is the one to blame, probably will lose his job. Its a very reasonable situation. I see many lift vids and sometimes happen that there is not respect at all, for the place or property. I love seeing motor rooms and controllers, but not in that way. Cheers.

    • @mrmattandmrchay
      @mrmattandmrchay  8 лет назад

      Thanks for the message. Yup, I understand what you are saying. In some of our systems in the late 90s there was a terminal which simply repeated characters coming from controller. Very simple interaction between terminal and controller.

    I'm guessing by "Computer control" they mean first gen PLC control, which is basically the same thing, microprocessor chip etc etc.

      mrmattandmrchay Shame you missed it, there was once a classic OTIS at BHS Leicester, since they’re rebuilding the store inside I can safely assume that they’ll replace or modernise the lift. :(
      Will let you know if they’ve left it original here. (Doubt it though)

    • @mrmattandmrchay
      @mrmattandmrchay  6 лет назад

      Most of the BHS stores had old otis lifts. Filmed a load myself. But you're right... that's the first thing that will be ripped out and modernised if the building reopens.

    Sega games! I wish we had something like that in the netherlands. Is building modernized on the inside? The glazing around the lift shafts look very early 2000-ish. The fujitec lift still looks quite modern today, good on you fujitec (as EEVBLOG dave jones would say).

    • @mrmattandmrchay

    Thanks for the video, Matt and a gib thumbs up on what you said about respect!
    But there's one thing I just don't understand - maybe everyone in Britain will start laughing with tears when I ask this question, but I have to risk it. What's wrong with the word "knob"? Speaking English only as my second language (I'm from Germany) I would personally expect something to be pushed called a button and a knob being something to be turned, but I guess that's not what you mean. I realy don't get it, sorry... (Now expecting everyone to laugh at me, but I hope I can handle it... ;-) )

    • @tomreevo
      @tomreevo 8 лет назад

      Colaholiker The word knob is a slang word for the male genitalia.

    • @Colaholiker
      @Colaholiker 8 лет назад

      Okay, I expected it to be something in that direction, but I didn't know the exact details. Makes a lot of sense now, thanks. ;-)

    • @mrmattandmrchay
      @mrmattandmrchay  8 лет назад

      +Colaholiker haha ;) yes, the word knob... if you wait to someone "can I see your knob" then, well you are askinh the other person to get our his penis!!! So when I noticed that sign I thought I would make a comment about using that word in a toilet!!! :D glad you know the meaning. I think it's ok to say "that door has a knob" but be careful how you use the word haha

    • @Colaholiker
      @Colaholiker 8 лет назад

      Pitfalls for non native speakers - but trust me, if you started learning German, there would be similar "dangers" ;-)
      fyi, I'm quite sure, I will *never* ask anyone that question in my whole life... *lol*

    Go find yourself a Millar CVT :)
    (or, heck, GALaxy controllers are x86 single-board computers running DOS...)

    • @mrmattandmrchay
      @mrmattandmrchay  8 лет назад

      +Carter Kolwey we still have one or two systems running DOS. In fact my house system runs QBasic which is a DOS program.

    • @aprilkolwey4779
      @aprilkolwey4779 8 лет назад

      Before ElevatorAdjuster took his videos down, he had some nice ones showing a Millar CVT system in action. The sort of "management console" (and possibly the controller itself?) was a computer running Unix, with a nice old amber-screen monitor and everything.
      On a more modern note, the MCE "iControl" system has a Windows XP computer doing the dispatching.

      Designed my milling machine's digital readout on DOS a couple of years ago running on an junked industrial Pentium-MMX PC. Access to the parallel port is unrestricted and if all you need is one thread and textmode graphics, it's fine. Compiled it with Borland Turbo C++!

      If this was the case, then everything (including any consequences) would have been at my risk, which is different. Whilst I was in there with the maintenance guy then anything that happened would have come back on the maintenance guy as being the responsible party. Hope that makes sense :)
