DES/DER (Destination Entry System): the server that controls the DECs and dispatches elevator cars based on the access
decision and passenger load, destination indicators. The DES is communicating with the Galaxy OEI panel
DEC (Destination Entry Computer): the push-button or touch-screen Keypad that captures floor number requests. System
Galaxy supports two operating modes (i.e. Mode-2 card first; or Mode-3 floor first). See the section in this chapter on
Understanding DEC Modes, and the Floor Group Programming and the Glossary for more details.
Card Reader: a reader is mounted beside each DEC and is wired to the Galaxy OEI Panel (to a DPI). The reader transmits
the users card data to the OEI Panel, which holds the list of valid cards along with their elevator access rules. The OEI
board transmits the access decision and other programming to the Otis System (i.e. schedules, floor groups, destination
features, and DEC modes). When a DEC prompts a user to present access credentials, the credentials must be valid in the
OEI Controller and must have access valid access to the floor they are requesting at that time on the schedule. See the
section on Elevator Access Groups for more details.
OEI Control Panel (Galaxy OEI Panel): provides the elevator access decision, and floor group programming to the Otis
System DES & DEC (i.e. list of free floors and the DEC Operating modes and time schedules). See the Troubleshooting
section for more about messaging.
System Galaxy Server: The System Galaxy Client/Communication Server is used to monitor events, enroll cards and
configure the panel to behave as desired. The Galaxy Operator configures readers, schedules, access rules, floor groups,
etc. and loads them to the Galaxy panels. The Comm server also hosts the GCS services, including the Event Service. The
Client Software can also be installed on additional workstations. Ability to see, edit, and command Galaxy hardware,
readers, cardholders and other programming is controlled by Galaxy operator logon privileges.
Elevator Access Decision Process: From the elevator lobby, a passenger enters their floor request at the Otis
DEC Keypad (pushbutton or touch-screen). The passenger presents access credentials at a reader that is
mounted beside the keypad (the DEC Operating Mode determines whether the access card is presented before or after a
floor request). The DES (Destination Server) receives the floor request and the access decision from the Galaxy
OEI controller. It determines the best car to board and returns the instruction to the DEC. Passengers with
valid credentials are directed to the most appropriate car. Passengers who present invalid credentials are
prompted to seek assistance. See the System Topology Diagram and Data Flow Diagrams in sections 1.4 /1.5

can be free at one DEC and not at another DEC since Floor Groups can be individually assigned to different DECs. Floor Groups are
configured in System Galaxy and are stored in the OEI board.
Floor Group -0 is the default / mandatory floor group for all DECs. Floor Group -0 always uses the ALWAYS active time schedule. Do not
assign a floor to this group unless you want it to always be free access at every DEC. Assign the DEC Mode you want all the DECs to use by
default (when higher floor group(s) are inactive).
Floor Groups 1-10 are optional groups than can be assigned to one or more, or all DECs. You can use these optional floor groups to change
the mode of a DEC during a certain time-slot, or to add more free floors during a certain time-slot, or both.
You must carefully plan the configuration of Floor Groups to be sure you dont change the DEC Mode at an undesired time or add/restrict free
floors at an undesired time.
DEC Mode-2 (card first/high security): DEC prompts the passenger to present credentials before a choosing a floor.
DEC Mode-3 (floor first): DEC prompts the passenger to choose a floor number before credentials are presented.
WARNING: Carefully consider how DEC Modes are used. It is possible for a person to become trapped in
an elevator lobby if a DEC is in Mode-2/Card First and the person does not have valid credentials to get off
the floor.

The pc running the System Galaxy communication and event services must have a static IP address
You can only install 1 OEI Panel per Otis Compass system.
DO NOT wire access control doors to the OEI panel only wire DEC readers to the OEI panel.
If you are using dynamic addressing, then set DHCP to yes and make sure a dynamic address is
leased to your controller so it will behave as a fixed address.
The Event Server Address must be static and always uses port 3001 in the CPU for both the
event server when configuring the panel. See the Hardware Guide for details.
635 OEI Controller (elevator control panel for Otis Elevator Interface);
1. 635 CPU Board - requires v4.77 flash (or higher):
Maximum 1 OEI board on the data bus .
Up to 16 DPI boards on the data bus
2. 635 OEI Board - requires v4.77 flash (or higher) :
The OEI board must be factory flashed
OEI board ID must be set to 1 (factory default)
Using Ethernet Cat5e (300 cable feet)
The OEI board must be connected to port 21 on the Otis Layer-3 switch
3.
Currently, the OEI Panel supports up to 16 DPI boards (up to 32 readers). DPI boards must
have unique numbers (2 thru 17 since the number 1 is reserved for an OEI board).
! The 600 DPI Board ID is configured using the 600 Hardware Config Tool.
! The 635 DPI Board ID is set using the onboard dipswitch.
Only elevator DEC readers can be wired to the DPI boards inside the OEI Controller. Nonelevator readers must be connected to a non-elevator controller.
All the elevator DPI boards must be installed inside the same panel as the OEI board and 635
CPU (i.e. they cannot be in separate cans).
See the Galaxy 600-635 Hardware Guide for instructions on wiring specifications (i.e. gauge,
distance, etc.) and for landing reader wires to the DPI terminals.
! The door contact must be jumped out ( by placing a jumper wire between COM
and CNT on the reader port).
NOTE: DPI Relay-1 will audibly activate when a card is valid; however, the doors and
contacts are not wired. The Otis system controls its doors based on the data received from
the OEI board. DPI Relay-2 is unused for the Otis system.

The DEC number/name, its IP Address, its assigned DEC Operating Mode, as well as its
last known status (online vs. offline) will be displayed.
6. If a DEC is listed as offline it could be because it has lost its network connectivity. Make sure the
DEC is actually configured in the Otis System and is properly connected to the Otis system.
IMPORTANT: the OEI Board can display offline status for a DEC that has been added
from the System Galaxy programming and loaded to the elevator panel before it has been
added to the Compass system or been connected. To determine if the extra DEC is caused
by this situation, you can cold start both the CPU and OEI board in the panel. After the boards
are cold started, issue the online command again and should see that the extra DEC(S) went
away. If you really needed the extra DEC, configure and connect it in the Compass system and
Load Data from System Galaxys GCS Loader program.
The Floor Group number, its assigned DEC Operating Mode, as well as which floors are
assigned free.
The floors that are assigned free will be designated with an A for allowed. Floors that
require authorization do not have a letter designation.

4.1 TROUBLESHOOTING
YoucanfindoutwhichDECSareonlinebyinterrogatingtheOEIboardwithspecialcommands.Todetermine
whatDECSarelistedattheOEIBoardandtheironlinestatus,youcanuseaterminalemulatortoissuean
onlinecommandandarowscommand.
IMPORTANTNOTES
WhentheOEIboardisconnectedtothenetwork,theDES/DERwillsendthelistofDECsandtheirconfigurationto
theOEI.SystemGalaxyalsosendsitslistofDECsandthefloorgroupconfigurationtotheOEIboard.

IfaDECisprogrammedinGalaxy(andloadedtothepanel),butisnotpresentintheOtisconfiguration,thenthe
DECwillbelistedwithanofflinestatus.
The online command will return the list of DECs that the OEI Board is communicating with through the Otis Compass
System. If a DEC doesnt seem to be responding to the access control system or does not update its floor groups or
DEC operating modes, you can query the DEC list to prove the OEI knows about the DECs. use a terminal emulator,
such as Putty or HyperTerminal to issue the online command.
1. Connect one end of the Galaxy hardware programming cable to the OEI Boards 9-pin serial port.
2.
Connect the other end to the PCs COM port (serial port).
3. And start the terminal emulator as appropriate and set up the connection parameters.
Bits per Second = 57,600K
Data Bits = 8
Parity = None
Stop Bits = 1
Flow Control = None
4. Type online (without the quote marks) into the emulator window.
5. The Galaxy OEI Board will list every DEC that it knows about.
The DEC number/name, its IP Address, its assigned DEC Operating Mode, as well as its
last known status (online vs. offline) will be displayed.
6. If a DEC is listed as offline it could be because it has lost its network connectivity. Make sure the
DEC is actually configured in the Otis System and is properly connected to the Otis system.
IMPORTANT: the OEI Board can display offline status for a DEC that has been added
from the System Galaxy programming and loaded to the elevator panel before it has been
added to the Compass system or been connected. To determine if the extra DEC is caused
by this situation, you can cold start both the CPU and OEI board in the panel. After the boards
are cold started, issue the online command again and should see that the extra DEC(S) went
away. If you really needed the extra DEC, configure and connect it in the Compass system and
Load Data from System Galaxys GCS Loader program.
The free floors that are assigned to the floor group. The floors that are assigned free will
be designated with an A for allowed. Floors that require authorization do not have a letter
