I think I know how it works! The elevator shaft has openings to the outside so that birds can come and go as they please. When someone presses the alarm button, a robot arm grabs a bird by their foot, and they panic and start making that noise.
Whether you have permission from a nurse is inconsequential,using the EMERGENCY alarm bell is for EMERGENCIES ONLY!The backup battery that powers the emergency lights and alarm bell is low voltage and the more its used the more the battery is discharged until eventually is does not work at all.I have to change these batteries all the time because everyone wants to either push the alarm button or emergency light test switch just for giggles.
Yes and I don't go around ringing alarms anymore as you are right! I spent over an hour requesting assistance in a broken elevator in my dorm because people ignored the alarm..
@redneckelevatorman WTF the back up batterys will be rechargerble ringing a bell will not drain them unless there is no mains power even if there isnt any power and you drain the battery when the power is restored the batterys will recharge
in brazil a lot of the alarms aren't properly connected. i was stuck in an elevator in brazil and the alarm button didn't work. luckily it was a see-thru elevator in a hotel so i managed to attract some attention by waving my hands and tapping the glass.
i once got stuck in a lift (English word for elevator) and when i pressed the alarm the fire brigade came to get us out. if the lift hadn't been jammed we would have been in a LOT of trouble.
i hope some poor old dear wasn't denied help after because they were too busy trying to get to you to help you out the lift. it may be fun but just think before you do it. ok?
unfortunately, most alarm bells here are not remotely monitered. some lifts have phones but alot dont. once i was stuck in the lift in my dorm, it broke and I had to ring the bell for over an hour before anybody came to check on me. the only reason i got help is because i held the alarm button and somebody couldnt sleep, so they finally called 911. no phone in the lift.
new kone and otis elevators have a KoneXion (KONE) and REM (otis) monitoring systems i get stuck to new kone when blackout i pushed alarm then the elevator calls to Kone service...
i wonder if i would the ark (family church) wouldnt care if i rung the elevator alarm (Schindler elevator) besides theres no security cam in there and i wnder how loud it is (i will find out tommorow)
someone one youtube that starts with a K said that some amlarms are set to the sercurity office and you could get kicked out or it would get somones attention think somones stuck and call the fire depatartment you could get in trouble for but if I owned a store I wouldnt care if somone would press the alarm for fun as long as they dont use the ohone or pull the fire alarm but some people have 0 tulernacy an get really mad for pressing the alarm
That is only the case for taller buildings. When I was at the Marriott Marquis in Atlanta, someone bumped the button, and Security came on the intercom.
Here, the alarm button never activates a phone - it just makes noise and can be sometimes be seen by security officials. American elevators always have a separate phone button or cabinet.
it depends who owns the building if its a bitch then its Ileagal if its a nice person who likes to have fun and check things out then they wouldnt mind
Guess what I just pressed? DOWN RATE BUTTON!!!

Well, this chirp that OTIS uses is MUCH better than the beeps Schindler and KONE uses. ThyssenKrupp uses the old fashioned bell.

Sounds like the Anti-Theft Alarm System on all 1999 and newer Mercedes-Benz model! Try pushing the "Panic" button on an MB Smartkey once.

in the netherlands you have to hold the button for like 5-10 seconds before it activates the phone.

yeah, here the alarm button activates the phone and a alarm horn after you hold it it for 5-10 seconds.
djFadeOut122 2 years ago
same here, but it activates straight away the horn and after 4 secs it connects to KONE service center if its kone.

Search "schindler elevator" on youtube. Plus "Otis owns" is YOUR OPINION.

Otis is trusted in hospitals and also made the fastest elevator in North America!
Otis is better than ThyssenKrupp or Schindler!
