Abstract:
An equipment operation apparatus (100) includes: a connection unit (102) that acquires apparatus identification information for distinguishing a plurality of operated apparatuses (10) from each other and connects to a communication apparatus (200) communicable with a controller (20) of an operated apparatus (10) indicated by the apparatus identification information; and a display processing unit (104) that causes, when a connection to the communication apparatus (200) is established, a display unit (110) to display an operation screen for operating the operated apparatus (10) controlled by the controller (20) communicable with the communication apparatus (200).
Abstract:
An elevator control device includes a non-service function prohibiting registration of call to each of floors and a non-service level setting part which sets two non-service levels of level 1 and level 2 for each floor, a call registration part for a user to perform a call registration operation for a desired floor, and a call registration control part in which when the call registration part is operated, in the case level 1 or level 2 has been set for the desired floor, prohibits a registration of call to that floor, and in the case neither level 1 nor level 2 has been set for the desired floor, performs the registration of call to that floor. Even if level 1 has been set for the desired floor, in the case a temporary cancel signal designating that floor has been inputted, the call to that floor is registered.
Abstract:
An elevator control system includes a control power supply, a computing core in communication with the control power supply, a communication power supply in communication with the computing core, and a sleep monitor in communication with the control power supply, the computing core, and the communication power supply. The sleep monitor is disposed to selectively turn on/off the control power supply and the computing core, and the sleep monitor is disposed to selectively change an operating state of the communication power supply to a low voltage state.
Abstract:
Controlling means (213) for a car/hall apparatus (21) provided for an elevator transfers an elevator operating program stored in storage means (214) to an operating terminal (16) through operating terminal communication means (212) and an operating terminal communication path (23) when necessary. The operating terminal (16) which has received the elevator operating program executes this program to control an elevator car and a hoisting machine through the operating terminal communication path (23), the car/hall apparatus (21), a car/hall communication path (22), and a controlling apparatus (13), thereby operating the elevator.
Abstract:
The invention concerns, first, a signalling procedure for a lift, whereby the control system and the users of the lift are informed on lift calls and the state of the lift, e.g. position, movement and availability, by using serial communication between the control system computer and the actuating and signalling means in the lift car and on each floor level, and, second, a signalling system applying the said procedure. To avoid abundant and complicated wiring and to increase standardization in the design of the lift system main panel and call button stations, the signalling system of the invention employs the polling principle in its internal communication, whereby data are transmitted bi-directionally using digital series loops, one of which connects the devices in the lift car, controlled by and communicating via a microprocessor, another connects the corresponding shaft and door devices, while a third loop is used for communication with the external world.
Abstract:
A circuit includes a charging means to sense the number of stops made by an elevator in response to car calls at which there are no passenger transfers made. After a predetermined number of such stops are made, the remaining car calls are automatically cancelled.
Abstract:
A ZONED ELEVATOR CONTROL SYSTEM FOR A GROUP OF CARS IN WHICH THE CARS ARE DISTRIBUTED ON A PREDETERMINED APPORTIONED BASIS INTO VARIOUS ZONES OF THE BUILDING, WHEREUPON IN THE ABSENCE OF CALLS EACH CAR IS BROUGHT TO A STOP AT A LANDING IN THE ZONE IT IS OCCUPYING. THEREAFTER IN A ZONE OCCUPOED BY A CAR THE RESPONSE TO THE FIRST LANDING CALL IS LIMITED TO A CAR LOCATED IN THAT ZONE. A LANDING CALL IN A ZONE IN WHICH NO CAR IS LOCATED STARTS A CAR LOCATED IN THE NEAREST LOWER ZONE. THE LEVEL OF TRAFFIC IN EACH ZONE IS MEASURED INDIVIDUALLY. AN UP OR A DOWN LANDING CALL IN REGISTRATION IN ANY ZONE CONTINUOUSLY FOR A PREDETERMINED PERIOD WITHOUT AND UP OR A DOWN LANDING CALL RESPECTIVELY BEING CANCELLED INDICATES THE ZONE IS A HEAVY DEMAND ZONE. AS A RESULT THE LIMITATION ON THE RESPONSE TO LANDING CALLS TO A CAR LOCATED IN THAT ZONE IS REMOVED. THIS ENABLES A CAR IN THE NEAREST LOWER ZONE TO RESPOND TO LANDING CALLS IN THE HEAVY TRAFFIC DEMAND ZONE NOTWITHSTANDING ANOTHER CAR IS OCCUPYING THAT ZONE. IN ADDITION WHILE THE HEAVY TRAFFIC DEMAND CONTINUES ANY CAR IN A ZONE WHICH IS IN EXCESS OF THE APPORTIONED NUMBER OF CARS FOR THAT ZONE IS PREVENTED FROM TRAVELING TO AN UNOCCUPIED ZONE AS IT OTHERWISE WOULD AND IS CAUSED TO TRAVEL TO THE HEAVY TRAFFIC DEMAND ZONE. THE HEAVY TRAFFIC DEMAND INDICATION IS TERMINATED BY THE CANCELLATION OF A LANDING CALL FOR THE SAME DIRECTION AS THE LANDING CALL WHOSE CONTINUOUS REGISTRATION INSTITUTED THE DEMAND.
