The elevator is perhaps the jankyest and most dangerous thing we have at Noisebridge.  Please, do not use it unless absolutely necessary<br><br>
'''Excellent uses''' of the elevator include:<br>


1) For disability access to the space (if you have visible or non-visible mobility impairment)<br>
{{cursorboxend}}
2) Taking out the NB trash on trash night<br>
3) Taking in large donations to the space<br>
4) Taking in or Moving out large equipment or furniture<br>
5) Taking out NB E-Waste<br>
6) Closing the gates and doors /gently/


'''Unexcellent uses''' of the elevator include:<br>

1) Bringing your bike up b/c you are too lazy to carry it up stairs<br>

2) Bringing your bike down b/c you are too lazy to carry it down stairs<br>
* Details will go here as they develop.
3) b/c you are too tired / drunk and don't "feel like walking"<br>
* It fits into the larger [[272]] buildout plan.
4) Slamming the gates and doors loudly and repeatedly, either out of frustration or a latent display of machismo<br><br>


Unexcellent uses of the elevator will result in verbal reprimand for a first offense.  Repeated offenses will be brought up at NB meetings and discussion and will be taken seriously.

***'''Basic Elevator Info + Operation:'''<br>
The elevator has many "quirks." To operate:<br>
*Note: There is a white doorbell-type buzzer to the right of the call button if you need help at any time.  It will ping the upstairs with a loud, obnoxious sound that will hopefully inspire excellent helping behavior.*<br>
1) Hold down call button on bottom (1st) floor for 1 second.  (Holding >1-2sec results in the elevator dipping 6" below threshold, making it hard to wheel things on)<br>
1a) If the elevator dips and makes access difficult, see "Troubleshooting Elevator Tips" below.
2) Wait 2-3 min. for the elevator to come down.  You should be able to see it through the small window on the door. (note, we should add an audible indicator)<br>
3) Open both gates to enter.  Do not slide the inside gate too far to the left or it may come off the track.  If it does, buzz and ask for help.<br>
4) Enter the elevator<br>
5) Close both gates /gently/ making sure they both travel the full length of the track and are as flush with the door frame as possible<br>
6) Press your desired floor button and hold for 1-2 sec. (Noisebridge is on the 3rd floor)<br>
7) Pray
8) After a complete stop on the floor you desire, open both the inside and outside gate to exit.
9) Exit the elevator
10) Close both gates /gently/ all the way flush with the door frame so that the next person downstairs can call it.<br>

Use the [[Elevator_Buzzer|elevator buzzer]] if you need assistance, or if the call buttons do not work.
 
The elevator light fixture uses a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GU24_connector GU24 base] rather than a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edison_screw "screw-in"] socket - it requires a 26 watt / GU24 base bulb (such as Eco-Stor model # P26SP-GU24/WW - about $6 + tax from [http://www.discountbuilderssupplysf.com/directions.php Discount Builder Supply] on 13th Street and Mission)
 
 
 
'''July 27 2010 Test report:'''
 
1st floor call button normally closed contacts were impacted with nonconductive dirt.  Cleaning is performed with simple white paper, not anything else.  Please, if you ever clean these call button relays do not use abrasives, they shorten the life of the relay.  Also be sure to take voltage precautions since the switch has 120VAC across it.
 
When any call button doesn't work, the whole system doesn't work.  Is that what is called 'failsafe'?
 
There's a PDF for an elevator test plan uploaded to the Noisebridge wiki for the elevator.  Test monthly.
