Hidra
Control system for lifts and goods lifts
It is a lift control system formed of different electronic modules interconnected by a highly robust communications bus especially designed for the lift. This communications bus enables the number of cables in the lift to be independent from the number of floors and the set of modules connected to the bus, making the system hugely flexible in terms of providing creative solutions to the lift sector.

| Module | Description |
| (2) CCP PIL | HIDRA 2010 main board with the control program and installation database. It has a 16-character LCD (in-formation and adjustment) and, optionally a LED information panel- |
| (16) MPR | Floor module. Permits the connection of all the user’s labelling elements (pushbuttons, lights, direction arrows, acoustic warning devices, displays, etc.) and safety devices (door presence, interlocking, etc.) on each floor. |
| (8) PLR | Multipurpose 8-input, 8-output module for passenger signalling and special operative, with connection to the HIDRA bus. |
| (12) SAR | Alarm module. Makes it possible to set the alarm off (car, ceiling and pit). Includes intercom system with the machine room, synthesis for car voice messages and telesurveillance event recording. |
| (11) DMR LCD | Graphic displays connected to the HIDRA bus with position, direction and status information. The 3,5” and 5,7” LCDs generate call acceptance and gong sounds. |
| (4) TPR | Interfaces for traction or hydraulic lifts. These boards simplify the COP wiring and facilitate the connection of the lift elements (safety series, trailing flex, etc.). |
| (9) TBC | Wiring distribution board for the car top box to facilitate the connection of all the car elements. |

Optional modules
| Module | Description |
| PIL | Diagnosis panel with information about status and events, current and past. Shows the information recorded in the event log in a clear and self-explanatory manner and in different languages. The PIL panel is mounted on the CCP control board and simplifies the interpretation of the information that the control board shows on the LCD display. |
| GAP | A numerical control device for incremental shaft encoders that enables car positioning based on a single magnet per floor (unlocking zone magnet) and 2 bi-stable sensors for detecting extreme zones. Designed to simplify floor level adjustment in installations with many stops, high speed or in cases with short stops distances not always covered by the standard positioning system of 2 sensors and 4 magnets per floor. |
| LCD 5,7 LCD 3,5 |
Graphic blue monochrome LCD displays. Offer information of lift position and status. Include a loudspeaker for acoustic call acceptance and the 2-tone arrival gong. With a PC software can be personalised the screen presentation. |
