<p>The present invention relates to a status signaling method and system for an elevator apparatus and elevator apparatus comprising said system, which allows signaling to users different statuses of the elevator apparatus prior to the calling action, as well as estimating the waiting time once it has been called, where the elevator apparatus comprises:
- a cabin (1) which can move between at least two floor levels (2, 2', 2"),
- at least one signaling element (3, 3', 3"),
- at least one call element (4, 4', 4") located on a floor level (2, 2', 2"), and
- at least one door (5, 5', 5") on a floor level (2, 2', 2") for accessing a cabin (1),
where the method comprises signaling a standby of the elevator apparatus, in which the elevator apparatus is operative but the cabin (1) is stopped and the doors (5, 5', 5") are closed, by means of the emission, through signaling elements (3, 3', 3"), of a first signal (s 1 ) having a intensity that is continuously variable between a maximum level and a minimum level.</p> |
