Abstract:
A method for determining a destination call for use by an elevator installation with a control unit and at least one destination call device includes ascertaining several destination calls and making them known to the user by the destination call device. A destination call is selected by a change in position of the user and/or a data communication is activated between the destination call device and a communications unit, which is carried by the user, within a defined range of a radio link section of the destination call device and thereupon a destination call is selected by a change in position of the communications unit inside or outside the radio link section. The selected destination call is communicated to the control unit for serving the destination call.
Abstract:
The present invention discloses a method and an elevator system for allocating elevators to passenger groups. Passengers have access cards, the identification data of which is read, a passenger group is formed on the basis of the identification data, the destination calls to be connected to the passenger group are registered and an elevator is allocated for the use of the passenger group.
Abstract:
A method for giving a destination call to the control system of an elevator system is provided, in which method one or more predetermined departure floor-destination floor pairs are presented on the touch-sensitive display of a destination call-giving device having a touch-sensitive display, in which each pair identifies for the user one predetermined departure floor and one predetermined destination floor, and the departure floor-destination floor pair selected by the user is determined on the basis of a touch detected with the touch-sensitive display, and a destination call signal is sent to the control system of the elevator system, which signal identifies the departure floor and the destination floor of the departure floor-destination floor pair selected by the user. A call-giving device, an elevator system and a computer program product are provided to implement the aforementioned method.
Abstract:
The present invention discloses a conveying system and a method for registering service requests in a conveying system, which comprises at least one transport device. A detection area bounded on a floor surface is in connection with the transport device, in which detection area the identification data contained in the personal identifiers of passengers is read. The service profiles of passengers who have arrived in the detection area and/or who have left the detection area are determined on the basis of the identification data, and a service request according to the service profiles is registered for transporting and/or admitting passengers in the detection area to the location indicated by the service request.
Abstract:
A system and method for pre-programming operation of an elevator to automatically service particular floors of a building at a designated future interval. A remote user may input instructions over a network to be relayed to an elevator controller including a future interval during which an elevator is to automatically make continuous or periodic trips to and from a particular floor or floors of a building, such that during the designated future interval the elevator automatically and without a user's instructions, reaches the designated floor, opens the door, waits a pre-set time period, closes the door and travels to another floor or floors.
Abstract:
The present invention discloses a method and a system for allocating elevators on the basis of advance calls. According to the invention an advance call is registered, address data is connected to the advance call, an elevator is allocated when the activation condition of the advance call is fulfilled, and information about the allocation of the elevator is sent to the passenger by sending a notification to the address indicated by the address data.
Abstract:
The present invention discloses a solution for adapting the control functions in elevator systems, wherein portable call terminals are used for the giving of calls. When the call terminals have been disposed in the desired locations in the building, the values of the control parameters that are dependent on the location of the call terminals and are used in the control of the elevator system are set.
Abstract:
The present invention deals with a method and system for producing services in the communication system of a building. In the method of the invention, the communication system includes at least one terminal device applicable for local-area communication, at least one communication unit, at least one server controlling the communication system, at least one base station for implementing a local-area network in the communication system, and a local network for implementing mutual data transfer between the communication unit, the server controlling the communication system and the base station. In the method, a number of service folders are generated in the terminal device and a service folder applicable to the purpose in each case is selected. From the selected service folder, a service request is selected which is transmitted from the terminal device to the communication system, where the service request is executed in one or more sub-stages using one or more communication units.
Abstract:
A method and a system for transferring an ongoing communication in which a mobile terminal is involved between a first and a second base stations of a wireless cellular telecommunication network. One of the base stations is located in a moving conveyance. The first base station obtains information indicating that the first base station will become a neighbor of the second base station, identifies a mobile terminal which is currently under communication with a remote telecommunication device through the first base station, transfers a message to the second base station requesting the second base station to prepare resources enabling the continuation of the communication through the second base station, obtains information indicating that the first base station has become a neighbor of the second base station, and transfers the ongoing communication in which the mobile terminal is involved to the second base station.
Abstract:
A method for allocation of a user to a elevator installation, which is provided with a plurality of elevator cars and with a destination call control unit, wherein the user lodges a destination call at the destination control unit using a communications unit. The destination call control unit determines a group of elevator cars for serving the destination call and makes the group known to the user by the communications unit. The user selects an elevator car from the group by the communications unit. In addition, information for guiding the user to the selected elevator car is communicated to the user by the communications unit.
