This LED illuminated elevator button was sent in by Maico for us to explore. It's very modular.

    Otis elevator is a good brand! I loved the voice that mostly plays on series 5 and gen 2’s

    I think they hacked a car thru its gas tank lid, via CAN bus, opened the doors, plugged in deeper and replaced the ciphers, in tens of seconds. ;D

    Oh, I recall you mentioning that they tend to put CAN bus interfaces and hook the panel and outer buttons onto it — because sophisticated mass-produced IC-loaded buttons are quite cheap and easy to organize on the panel, and it allows for scaling them easily for various amount of floors.
    I guess, they do the same thing to the street lights these days — as it turns the whole set into a LEGO-like arrangement, extensible with blocks that just fit right in.

    That button looks very different from my own otis button.

    This is an Otis FAA25090J111 CMOS/relay type elevator buttons
    This button is for relay controllers
    It exists with green leds,
    All Otis alarm buttons are CMOS type, with yellow leds or without leds
    There are Micro type buttons with red and green leds
    And MCS220 buttons with red, green, blue and white leds
    I really like Otis elevators buttons

    Designed/Planned Obsolescence??
    I was told by the Mainstream Media that such a thing was just a 'Myth'.

    "650 nm Red." I hope you were joking, because I found that's funny.

  12. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars pixelflow says:

    I wonder if the diameter is similar to any of the standard Happ/Sanwa arcade buttons.

    No more drop cable?

    My old college has these kinds of buttons on their library lifts. What's odd is that the buttons are always illuminated dimly, then light up brightly once you've pressed it to call the lift. I assume this simply works by two different voltages, but would the LED circuitry support that? It seems like it only runs on 24V…

  15. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Mty101 says:

    This looks like an Otis 2000 series button. The newer Gen2 ones are very similar, but they usually have blue LEDs for the call button but are brighter.

  16. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Chris Walford says:

    So, although marked C1/ NO1/NC1 and C2/ NO2/NC2 it actually only has 1 switch? Or is that a double pole switch (doesn't look like it)?
