KONE Elevator Code Reader BAR2000 – The Ultimate Plug-and-Play Diagnostic Tool | Supplied by Nanjing Zhuye Elevator Parts
Modern elevators are controlled by complex software systems that generate hundreds of fault codes, parameter lists and trip logs. Technicians can waste precious hours opening control cabinets, tracing cables or guessing what the car is trying to say. The KONE Code Reader BAR2000 removes that guess-work. This palm-size interface connects directly to the LON or KONE E-Link service socket, reads the controller’s memory in seconds and displays plain-language fault descriptions on any Windows laptop or Android phone. Nanjing Zhuye Elevator Parts now keeps the original BAR2000 kit in stock for global 24-hour shipment, so every service team can work faster, safer and smarter.
What is the BAR2000?
The BAR2000 is an OEM-approved service tool designed by KONE for elevators running KONE EcoDisc®, MonoSpace® and MiniSpace® controllers (KCE, KCM, KM3xx, KM7xx, KONE 7000 series). Inside the aluminium housing are a galvanically-isolated LON transceiver, a USB-to-serial converter and a 5 V DC/DC supply protected against reverse polarity and short-circuit. The kit contains:
-
BAR2000 interface (IP40, −20 °C to +70 °C)
-
2 m curly LON cable with KONE 7-pin service plug
-
1.8 m USB-A 2.0 cable
-
Android OTG adapter (USB-C and micro-USB)
-
Vinyl carry pouch and quick-start card
-
Windows 10/11 drivers plus KONE Elevator Diagnostic Software (KEDS) v 4.8
Key advantages
-
Read fault logs, event queue, statistics and I/O status in under 10 seconds
-
Clear faults and re-start the controller without power-cycling the car
-
Monitor real-time signals while the elevator is running (speed, position, door zone, safety chain)
-
Save or print service reports for compliance audits
-
No battery, no licence fees, no annual calibration—works out of the box for the life of the unit
Step-by-step use method
-
Personal protective equipment on, place car on inspection mode and switch off main power.
-
Open the controller door and locate the round 7-pin “SERVICE” socket (labelled X57 on KCE, X14 on KM7xx).
-
Connect the LON cable to BAR2000 and to the service socket; the green “LINK” LED will blink twice to confirm correct polarity.
-
Plug the USB cable into your laptop or Android handset; the red “PWR” LED lights solid. Windows will auto-install the CP210x driver the first time only.
-
Launch KEDS software (or free “KONE Code Reader” Android app). Choose COM port (Windows) or allow USB access (Android).
-
Press “Connect”. The software reads ECU firmware, displays elevator type, serial number and current fault list.
-
Double-click any fault to view plain-language description, probable cause and recommended action.
-
After repair, tick the faults you want to clear and press “Reset”. The car can now be returned to normal mode.
-
Press “Export PDF” to generate a service report with time-stamp, technician ID and fault snapshot for customer records.
-
Disconnect BAR2000, coil cables and close the cabinet. Total elapsed time: typically 3–5 minutes.
Typical replacement cycle
The BAR2000 contains no mechanical wear parts, but the internal LON transceiver and USB driver chip are subject to electrical stress. KONE recommends:
-
Functional test every 12 months: connect to a known-good controller and verify that both LEDs illuminate and data packets are error-free.
-
Calibration is not required; however, check LON cable continuity (≤ 1 Ω per conductor) and inspect the 7-pin plug for bent pins or corrosion.
-
Replace the unit after 8 years of field use or immediately if:
– the LINK LED stays dark even with known-good cable and socket,
– Windows reports “Device descriptor failed”,
– housing is cracked or unit has been exposed to water.
Keep a spare BAR2000 in every service van; at less than 0.3 kg it is cheaper than one callback caused by an unreadable controller.
Maintenance tips from Nanjing Zhuye Elevator Parts
-
Coil cables loosely—sharp bends at the plug neck fracture wires internally.
-
Store in the supplied pouch with desiccant sachet; LON pins are gold-plated but will tarnish in humid sites.
-
Update KEDS software twice a year; new definitions add support for latest KONE controllers.
-
Never connect BAR2000 to 230 V service sockets found in older KONE V3F drives; use the dedicated LON port only.
-
Label the unit with purchase date; our warehouse ships only Rev-E hardware (2022 onward) which supports USB 3.0 and Android 12.
