In today’s fast-paced, interconnected world, real-time data and intelligent automation are no longer optional—they’re essential. At Lacshan Elevators, we’ve embraced this shift by integrating GPRS-enabled control panels into our elevator systems. This advanced technology allows for remote diagnostics, continuous system monitoring, fault prediction, and responsive maintenance, ensuring your elevator operates at peak efficiency with minimal downtime.
What Are GPRS-Enabled Elevator Control Panels?
GPRS (General Packet Radio Service) is a mobile data service that enables continuous data transfer over cellular networks. When integrated into elevator control systems, it allows real-time two-way communication between the elevator and remote monitoring stations.
This means building managers, facility heads, and service teams can:
- Monitor elevator operations in real-time.
- Receive instant alerts for errors or system malfunctions.
- Remotely reset or adjust the control logic.
- Schedule predictive maintenance.
- Access historical logs for performance analysis.
Why It Matters: The Lacshan Advantage
At Lacshan Elevators, our GPRS panels aren’t just a technical upgrade—they’re a leap toward proactive elevator management. Here’s how our smart control systems stand out:
1. 24/7 Real-Time Monitoring
Our GPRS modules allow your elevator’s vital statistics to be transmitted to a centralized monitoring dashboard continuously. Fault logs, usage analytics, and key alerts are monitored round-the-clock.
➡ No more relying on passenger complaints or manual inspections to know something is wrong.
2. Remote Diagnostics and Maintenance
Technicians can identify the root cause of a malfunction before visiting the site. This helps them arrive with the right tools and parts, reducing repair times significantly.
➡ Fewer site visits, faster resolution, and lower costs.
3. Instant Error Alerts
Our smart system sends error codes and alerts the moment an issue arises. This facilitates swift action before the fault escalates into a major failure.
➡ Elevators spend less time out of service—keeping your tenants happy and operations smooth.
4. Preventive Maintenance Schedules
Through usage logs and system behavior data, our system can predict when parts might require servicing or replacement.
➡ Maintenance becomes predictive—not reactive—prolonging the life of your equipment.
5. User Experience Tracking
Track peak usage times, ride duration, door opening delays, and more. These insights help optimize elevator efficiency in busy buildings.
➡ Ideal for malls, hospitals, high-rises, and commercial complexes.
Smart Integration with Monarch Controllers
All Lacshan elevators powered by Monarch 3000+ and 9000+ series controllers support GPRS modules as part of our semi-serial communication framework. The integration enables:
- Live performance metrics
- Cloud-based diagnostics
- Firmware updates via remote access
- Emergency override functions during faults
This system is also compatible with Electric Brake Release (EBR) mechanisms, allowing service engineers to disengage brakes remotely under authorized supervision.
