ELEVATOR SYSTEM WITH CREDENTIAL CONFIRMATION AT A POSITION OF THE ELEVATOR CAR

摘要

An exemplary method of controlling an elevator system includes determining that a desired destination of a passenger corresponds to a secured location. Security credential information is obtained from the passenger at a position of an elevator car that the passenger intends to ride to the desired destination. A determination is made at the position of the elevator car whether the obtained security credential information indicates that the passenger is authorized to access the secured location. The elevator car is permitted to take the passenger to the desired destination only if the passenger is authorized to access the secured location.
