Abstract

The invention relates to a lift system (100) and to a method for servicing such a lift system (100). The lift system (100) has a device (10) for picking up a plurality of sensor signals. The device (10) is mounted on at least one cabin (20, 21) or at least one counterweight of the lift system (100). The device (10) comprises at least one processor (1) and at least one computer-readable data store (2) in at least one device housing (11). A first sensor (5, 5') is a position sensor and / or speed sensor and / or acceleration sensor which is mounted in and / or on the device housing (11).
