Abstract: According to one embodiment, a computer-implemented method for preventing an unintended call for a conveyance apparatus of a conveyance system is provided. The conveyance system comprising a first location device and a second location device. The computer-implemented method comprising: detecting a first interaction between the mobile device and the first location device; determining a travel direction of the first mobile device; and automatically filtering a second interaction between the mobile device and a second location device to prevent an unintended call to a conveyance apparatus in response to the travel direction of the mobile device.

Abstract: A rope sway detection system of an elevator system includes a magnetic pickup located adjacent to a suspension member of an elevator system. The magnetic pickup is configured to detect a movement of the suspension member via a change in a magnetic field at the magnetic pickup. A signal processing unit is operably connected to the magnetic pickup. The signal processing unit is configured to determine a maximum amplitude of a sway of the suspension member based on the change in the magnetic field, compare the maximum amplitude to a preselected threshold, and signal a change in operation of the elevator system based on an actual or predicted exceedance of the threshold.
