5 Hidden Facts in Mitsubishi Elevators That You've Never Known Before

I've collected all of these facts based on my observation so far and information from other elevator enthusiasts. Hopefully this video would be useful for you to try one of these facts someday.

1. Hall lantern flashing speed is slightly increased when doors open

This applies in most Mitsubishi elevators installed in the 1990s and 2000s. When the car arrives, the hall lanterns flashes normal but when the doors open they flashes a bit faster than before. This also applies to the directional arrows on the hall stations.

2. Directional arrows on hall stations does not flashes when car arrives (90s Mitsubishi only)

This only applies in 1990s Mitsubishi elevators. Arrow does not flashes when the car arrives, unlike later models in the 21st century.

3. Keyhole on top floor button indicates an MRL

This is the easiest way to tell if a Mitsubishi elevator is MRL or not. If you see a keyhole on the top floor button panel then it means it's MRL. It is used to access the control board which is hidden behind the panel. This does not applies in Mitsubishi DiamondTrac MRL elevators in North America.

4. A single car call cannot be cancelled

In most Mitsubishi elevators with car call cancel feature, a single active car call cannot be cancelled. It needs at least two car calls to erase one of them. Cancelling a single car call is actually possible, but this case is actually rare.

5. Automated voices are only possible if there is a door close chime

Finally, if there is a Mitsubishi elevator with a door close chime, it might have automated voices, whether AAN-B (Basic Announcements) or AAN-G (Voice Guidance System). If there is no door close chime then there are no voices.

Sometimes when there is no door close chime and you test the nudge mode it would make a beeping noise (without voices).

*DISCLAIMER: All of these facts are based on my researches and observations so far, as well as information given from other elevator enthusiasts. Some of them might be incorrect, so I apologize if you found any of them to be incorrect.
