2 stage elevator question

So I was looking at the Greyt elevator from wcp in cad and was wondering how it works. I understand how the first stage works but I can’t figure out the second stage. Please explain
Thanks

Search Chiefdelphi for “elevator rigging”. There have been many threads over the years. The Greyt elevator uses a “cascade rigging” style, with the motor driving the chain to move the first stage, and the rope loop moving the second stage.

I’ve found this video to be quite constructive to wrap my head around elevator riggings. (FTC Tips and Tricks: Lifts and Linear Movement - YouTube).

If you hover over the red progress bar, a faded graph comes up. Skip ahead to the two peaks and there you’ll see the useful stuff.
