    摘要: An elevator system includes an elevator car, a call panel, a controller, and a floor cancellation feature. The elevator car is adapted to travel in a hoistway defined by a building and between floors of the building. The call panel is located for passenger interaction, includes a plurality of floor selections, and communicates with the controller. The floor cancellation feature is associated with at least one of the call panel and the controller. The controller is configured to operate between a floor cancellation permit state and a floor cancellation restricted state, thereby respectively enabling and disabling the floor cancellation feature, and track at least one event associated with the floor cancellation restricted state.

    摘要: Methods and systems for making elevator service requests, including populating a recents list on a computing device with a floor pair having an origination floor and a destination floor, receiving a user input on the recents list including any of a swipe input on the pair, a press, drag and drop of an icon associated with an origination onto an icon associated with a destination in the pair, a press, drag and drop of an icon associated with an origination in one pair onto an icon associated with a destination in another pair, and a press, drag and drop of an icon associated with a former destination as an origination in one pair onto an icon associated with a former origination as a destination in another pair. The method also including generating a service request packet based on the new service request and transmitting it to an elevator controller.
