    Abstract: A method for deploying a controller to an elevator system includes generating a request to at least one other controller for obtaining at least one parameter relating to a deployment of the controller to the elevator system, receiving a response, and in response to detection that the at least one parameter in the response comprises a set of operational parameters, initiating a configuration procedure, and in response to detection that the at least one parameter in the response does not comprise the set of operational parameters, deriving an identifier of the elevator system included as the at least one parameter in the response and generating a request including the identifier of the elevator system for obtaining the set of operational parameters. An elevator system is configured to perform the method.

    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for diagnosis and/or maintenance of a transportation system, said transportation system having at least one transportation device and a remote monitoring unit being remote from said transportation device, said transportation device having a control board for controlling and/or monitoring a function of said transportation device, and a local control unit for controlling said and/or monitoring said control board, said method comprising: detecting raw data connected to said at least one function at said control board and/or said local control unit; generating condition information and/or performance information based on said raw data at said control board and/or said local control unit; calculating statistics information based on said condition information and/or performance information at said local control unit; buffering said condition information and/or performance information and/or statistics information at said local control unit; transmitting said condition information and/or performance information and/or statistics information to said remote monitoring unit, at predetermined and/or adaptive time intervals; processing said condition information and/or performance information and/or statistics information at said remote monitoring unit, for establishing a service need condition; and transmitting said service need condition selectively to the local control unit and/or a mobile service unit. Another aspect of the invention is a computer program realizing the method.

    Abstract: An elevator has a safety controller to which several safety switch arrangements are connected. The safety controller is configured to cause the stop of the elevator motor and the activation of the motor brakes. A comparator is provided in the safety controller for the determination of the status of the safety chain. The comparator is connected with a memory for storing at least one resistor reference value, which comparator is configured to output a safety chain status signal in dependence of comparison of a measured resistance value with the resistor reference value. Each of said safety switch arrangements includes at least one first resistor and a safety switch which are connected in series. The value of the first resistor is different in at least some safety switch arrangements, preferably in all safety switch arrangements. Each safety switch arrangement includes at least a second resistor connected in parallel with the safety switch, which second resistor has a higher value than the first resistor. The detection of a short circuit as well as of the opening of a safety switch arrangement are allowed.
