Abstract

A people conveyor system and a method for software update of a people conveyor component in a people conveyor system, such as an elevator system (100), an escalator system (200) and / or a moving walkway system. The conveyor system comprises a plurality of conveyor components, each said conveyor component comprising a memory and a processor running an application software, an updating means (111, 211)for updating conveyor component software, the updating means being communicatively connected to the conveyor components, wherein the updating means comprises or is connected to a processor and a memory, and at least one communication channel, arranged between the updating means (111, 211) and a remote update system (112). In the method the updating means (111, 211) downloads a software update from the remote update system (112) via the at least one communication channel based on request from the remote update system (112) and / or based on the request from at least one conveyor component and / or the people conveyor system, and wherein the software download to the conveyor component is performed as a background download and / or without affecting the operation of the people conveyor.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a people conveyor system, such as an elevator system, an escalator system and / or a moving walkway system, and a method of updating the software of people conveyor components in a people conveyor system. Background technique [0002] A people conveyor system, such as an elevator, includes components each equipped with a processor and a memory. In the case of an elevator system, the processor runs application software specific to the elevator component. During the lifetime of the elevator, new functions and / or corrections to existing functions will be provided in the form of new software releases. Also, for example, safety regulations may change during the life of a component. For these reasons, the application software for one or more conveyor components must be updated in order to be able to take advantage of new functionality or corrected operation of the software. [0003] In prior art solutions, the application software u...
