Innovative Software
The THOR platform is an embedded Linux®-based system (Yocto) running on a modern micro-controller solution. The system provides a modern, touch-based graphical user interface, making Thor very easy to operate and to orientate within the system. The application itself features an object-orientated architecture in order to make it easy to adapt the code to all the different doors, drives and encoder systems.
State-of-the-art Hardware
Combines the best of our knowledge in classic lift controller technology with an intuitive and LCD touch display – bringing the lift controller into the 21st century. Thor is the most compact lift controller solution of its class while boasting a powerful 256 MB RAM, and 256 MB Flash on board, giving the system the intelligence it needs to be the first of its kind.
High-tech functionality
Thor offers a wide range of functions, easily accessible through a clear and self-explanatory graphical menu. Change functions such as door timers, parking floor, landing calls and more by just sweeping your finger through the menus.
