More Information
Summary:An elevator system ( 20 ) includes a controller ( 22 ) that communicates with a portable device ( 30 ) that is adapted to be carried about by a passenger ( 32 ). The system provides a color indication ( 28 A- 28 E) associated with an elevator car ( 26 A- 26 E) that will travel to a passenger's intended destination floor. In one example, the portable device ( 30 ) provides a color indication that corresponds to the color indication ( 28 A- 28 E) associated with the car. Providing the color indication ( 34 ) on the portable device ( 30 ) assists a passenger ( 32 ) in locating the correct car and provides piece of mind to the passenger that they are entering the correct car and will be carried to their intended destination floor.
