Each car controller (10) in a multicar elevator system provides two serial asynchronous full duplex I/O channels to communicate with the next and previous car controllers. These two channels allow the transmission of a message in two opposite directions (32,34) on a communications ring. A single interruption of the ring, by an interrupted transmission line or a disturbed car controller for example, guarantees the transmission of messages to each car controller in at least one of the two directions.Each car controller contains three remote serial link interfaces. The first remote serial link interfaces to the car fixtures; car buttons, car tell tale lights, etc. The second remote serial link interfaces to car related hall fixtures; hall position indicator hall lantern, etc. The third remote serial link interfaces to the group related hall fixtures; hall buttons, hall tell tale lights, etc.To ensure the operation of the group related hall fixtures if a car controller fails or is switched off, a switchover module (28,36) is used. The purpose of the switchover module is to connect the group related hall fixtures to one of two car controllers. In the event that a car controller fails or is switched off, the switchover module connects the group related hall fixtures to the other car controller.

An apparatus for controlling group supervisory operation of elevators comprises a first computer for performing hall call control and car assignment control at usual times, a second computer for performing learning control at usual times, a system bus which connects the first computer to the second computer, and an abnormality detection device for disconnecting a computer which has developed a fault from the system bus if an abnormality of either the first computer or the second computer is detected and for making the computer which is operating normally perform the functions of the two computers.
摘要:
An elevator control system comprises a control unit for controlling at least one elevator in accordance with a first group of programs and a second group of programs to impart a plurality of functions to the elevator and a fault detection means for detecting any fault in the functions. The control unit functions to stop the control of the elevator by the control unit when a fault due to a program of the first group which is essential to the operation of the elevator occurs, and when a fault due to a program of the second group occurs, the control units functions to bypass the control by the fault program and continue the operation of the elevator by the other programs.
摘要:
An elevator system including a plurality of elevator cars capable of individual, independent control, and a system processor which places the plurality of elevator cars under group control. A monitor responsive to the calls for elevator service, and the resetting thereof when a call has been served, removes the elevator cars from group control to allow them to operate upon independent control, when a call for elevator service exists for a predetermined period of time during which no call resets were generated.
