Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to an elevator floor address setting, and more particularly to a method for setting the physical address of an elevator floor selector with confidentiality. Background Technology

[0002] With the increasing number of high-rise buildings, elevators are becoming more and more common. In the elevator lobby call system, each floor's call panel has a unique floor address. The elevator system mainboard communicates with each floor's call panel through this unique floor address to identify the call information for each floor, so as to register the command for each floor and display information such as floor and direction.

[0003] Before recognizing the call information of a floor, the physical address of the floor needs to be set on the call panel. Only when the address is set correctly can the correct ID be transmitted to the elevator system mainboard, thereby distinguishing the call information of the call panels of different floors.

[0004] Setting the address on the existing external call panel requires removing the panel's casing, triggering an internal switch to set the address, and then putting the panel into address mode. Users can then increment or decrement the address by pressing the up button or decrementing the down button, exiting address mode and saving the address. After setting the address, the panel needs to be reinstalled on the fixed external wall. Since the system involves multiple external call panels, processing and saving addresses one by one is cumbersome, labor-intensive, and time-consuming. Furthermore, when incrementing the address using buttons, the address is directly displayed on the panel without a password, making it vulnerable to leakage and replacement, resulting in poor confidentiality and low security. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a method for setting the physical address of an elevator floor selector with confidentiality. This invention features quick and convenient operation and high confidentiality.

[0006] The technical solution of the present invention: a method for setting the physical address of an elevator floor selector to be secure, comprising the following steps:

[0007] a. Pre-store the floor address database in the system motherboard;

[0008] b. The system motherboard sends address setting instructions and the first set of addresses to all external call panels;

[0009] c. After receiving the address setting command from the system motherboard, the external call panel enters the address setting mode;

[0010] d. Record the external call panel corresponding to the first set of addresses as the first external call panel, press the button of the first external call panel and hold it for at least 3 seconds, save the first set of addresses as the physical address of the first external call panel, and at the same time send the response signal of the first set of addresses to the system motherboard.

[0011] e. After the system motherboard receives the response signal of the first set of addresses, it automatically sends the second set of addresses to all external call panels;

[0012] f. Record the external call panel corresponding to the second set of addresses as the second external call panel, press the button of the second external call panel and hold it for at least 3 seconds, save the second set of addresses as the physical address of the second external call panel, and at the same time send the response signal of the second set of addresses to the system motherboard.

[0013] g. By following this method, all the floor addresses pre-stored in the system motherboard can be saved to the corresponding external call panel, enabling quick address setting.

[0014] In the aforementioned method for setting the physical address of an elevator floor selector to be confidential, the floor address database is configured such that the first set of addresses is designated as the first floor address, the second set of addresses is designated as the second floor address, and so on.

[0015] In the aforementioned method for setting the physical address confidentiality of an elevator floor selector, all address data in the floor address database is encrypted address data.

[0016] In the aforementioned method for setting the physical address of an elevator floor selector, in step c, the external call panel displays and receives the current address without responding.

[0017] In the aforementioned method for setting the physical address of an elevator floor selector, the floor address is saved as follows: when the button is pressed and held for 3 seconds, the address storage unit built into the external call panel is triggered, and the address storage unit saves the current floor address information.

[0018] In the aforementioned method for setting a secure physical address for an elevator floor selector, when the system motherboard receives a response signal for the address, it traces the external call panel corresponding to the response signal and marks the external call panel. If the marked external call panel sends a response signal again in subsequent address settings, an alarm signal is triggered, and the system motherboard blocks the response signal of the external call panel.

[0019] In the aforementioned method for setting a secure physical address for an elevator floor selector, if the address saved on the external call panel is incorrect, the button on the external call panel is pressed twice consecutively to delete the saved address. At the same time, an address clearing signal is sent to the system motherboard, and the system motherboard resends the deleted address.

[0020] In the aforementioned method for setting the physical address of an elevator floor selector, if the system motherboard receives at least two response signals for the current group address, it determines whether the response signals are signals issued by the external call panel of the same floor. If so, it continues to send the address of the next group. If not, it stops sending the address of the next group and issues an alarm signal, and then sends the address of the current group again. If at least two response signals for the current group address that are not from the same floor are still received in the second round, the current group address is marked with a multi-level response mark, and then the sending of the address of the next group continues.

[0021] In the aforementioned method for setting the physical address of an elevator floor selector, the method for determining whether the response signal is a signal emitted by the external call panel on the same floor is as follows: the response signals of the external call panels on the same floor are the same signal, and the response signals of the external call panels on different floors are different signals.

[0022] In the aforementioned method for setting the physical address of an elevator floor selector, if the system motherboard does not receive a response signal for the current group address, it issues an alarm signal and marks the current group address as abnormal. Then, it sends the next group address. After all other addresses have been sent, it sends the previously marked abnormal address again. If there is still no response, the address is marked as unresponsive.

[0023] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0024] This invention only requires setting the elevator floor address parameters within the system motherboard. The motherboard then sequentially sends the addresses to all external call panels, and each address is saved by pressing the buttons on the external call panels. This allows for rapid setting of multiple addresses on multiple external call panels. This invention eliminates the need to disassemble the external call panel housing or repeatedly press buttons to accumulate addresses, making operation simple, convenient, and time-saving. Furthermore, since the addresses are sent directly from the system motherboard and saved by pressing and holding the buttons on the external call panels, the addresses are not displayed on the external call panels, ensuring high security and confidentiality. Detailed Implementation

[0025] The present invention will be further described below with reference to embodiments, but these embodiments are not intended to limit the scope of the invention.

[0026] Example:

[0027] A method for setting the physical address of an elevator floor selector to be secure includes the following steps:

[0028] a. A floor address database is pre-stored within the system motherboard. In this database, the first set of addresses is designated as the first floor address, the second set as the second floor address, and so on. All address data in the floor address database is encrypted. This ensures high confidentiality and security.

[0029] b. The system motherboard sends address setting instructions and the first set of addresses to all external call panels;

[0030] c. After receiving the address setting command from the system motherboard, the external call panel enters the address setting mode; at this time, the external call panel displays and receives the current address without responding.

[0031] d. Record the external call panel corresponding to the first set of addresses as the first external call panel, press the button of the first external call panel and hold it for at least 3 seconds, save the first set of addresses as the physical address of the first external call panel, and at the same time send the response signal of the first set of addresses to the system motherboard.

[0032] The method for saving floor addresses is as follows: Pressing and holding the button for 3 seconds triggers the built-in address storage unit in the external call panel, which saves the current floor address information. Using a 3-second press and hold to trigger saving avoids accidental presses of other buttons on the external call panel that could interfere with address saving.

[0033] e. After the system motherboard receives the response signal of the first set of addresses, it automatically sends the second set of addresses to all external call panels;

[0034] f. Record the external call panel corresponding to the second set of addresses as the second external call panel, press the button of the second external call panel and hold it for at least 3 seconds, save the second set of addresses as the physical address of the second external call panel, and at the same time send the response signal of the second set of addresses to the system motherboard.

[0035] g. By following this method, all the floor addresses pre-stored in the system motherboard can be saved to the corresponding external call panel, enabling quick address setting.

[0036] If the system motherboard receives at least two response signals for the current address group, indicating that at least two external call panels have saved that address simultaneously, it determines whether the response signals are from external call panels on the same floor. If so, it continues sending the next group of addresses; otherwise, it stops sending the next group of addresses, issues an alarm signal, and then resends the current group of addresses. If the second round still receives at least two response signals for the current group of addresses that are not from the same floor, indicating that the current group of addresses has not been correctly responded to, it marks the current group of addresses with a multi-level response flag, marks the external call panel that issued the response signal as abnormal, and then continues sending the next group of addresses, pending further processing by engineering personnel. The alarm signal alerts staff to the abnormal address settings for quick adjustments. If the current handling is incorrect, the marking signal allows for rapid tracing of the incorrectly set address and external call panel, facilitating problem resolution.

[0037] The method for determining whether a response signal originates from the same floor's call panel is as follows: call panels on the same floor use the same response signal, while call panels on different floors use different signals. The same signal has the same bit sequence, frequency, amplitude, or waveform, while different signals have different bit sequences, frequencies, amplitudes, or waveforms. This facilitates call panels on the same floor storing the same set of addresses.

[0038] If the system motherboard does not receive a response signal from the current address group, it issues an alarm signal and marks the current address group as abnormal. It then sends the next address group, and so on. After all other addresses have been sent, the previously marked abnormal addresses are sent again. If there is still no response, that address is marked as unresponsive for later processing by engineers. Marking addresses facilitates quick identification of abnormal addresses, thereby improving troubleshooting efficiency.

[0039] When the system motherboard receives an address response signal, it traces the corresponding external call panel and marks it. If the marked external call panel sends another response signal in subsequent address settings, an alarm signal is triggered, and the system motherboard blocks the response signal from that external call panel. This prevents a single external call panel from storing multiple sets of addresses simultaneously.

[0040] If the address saved on the external call panel is incorrect, press the button on the external call panel twice to delete the saved address. At the same time, send an address clear signal to the system motherboard. The system motherboard will resend the deleted address and clear the mark on the external call panel. The external call panel can then save the address again after the address is deleted, providing fault tolerance and error correction space for address settings.

[0041] The aforementioned system motherboard and external call panel exchange information via communication methods.

[0042] This invention only requires setting the elevator floor address parameters within the system motherboard. The motherboard then sequentially sends the addresses to all external call panels, and each address is saved by pressing the buttons on the external call panels. This allows for rapid setting of multiple addresses on multiple external call panels. This invention eliminates the need to disassemble the external call panel housing or repeatedly press buttons to accumulate addresses, making operation simple, convenient, and time-saving. Furthermore, since the addresses are sent directly from the system motherboard and saved by pressing and holding the buttons on the external call panels, the addresses are not displayed on the external call panels, ensuring high security and confidentiality.
