Abstract
A control system includes at least one processor and at least one memory including computer program code. The at least one memory and the computer program code is configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the control system to at least perform: controlling application contents displayed by a plurality of displays associated with an elevator system, each application content having an associated respective priority; obtaining a triggering event associated with the elevator system; and changing application content of at least one of the plurality of displays based on the triggering event and the priority associated with each of the application contents.
Claims16
A control system comprising:
- at least one processor;
- and
- at least one memory including computer program code,
- wherein the at least one memory and the computer program code are configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the control system to at least perform:
- controlling application contents displayed by a plurality of displays associated with an elevator system, each application content having an associated respective priority, the plurality of displays including a first display being a car operating panel configured to display contents regarding an operating state of the elevator car, and a second display being configured to display a media content;
- obtaining a triggering event associated with the elevator system which has a higher priority than those of the contents regarding an operating state of the elevator car and the media content displayed by the plurality of displays;
- and
- changing the contents regarding the operating state of the elevator car displayed on the first display and the media content displayed on the second display, and causing a display of a same content regarding the triggering event on all displays of the plurality of displays based on the triggering event and the priority associated with each of the application contents, and
- wherein the triggering event is obtained when none of the plurality of displays has become faulty.
A method comprising the steps of:
- controlling, by a control system, application contents displayed by a plurality of displays associated with an elevator system, each application content having an associated respective priority, the plurality of displays including a first display being a car operating panel configured to display contents regarding an operating state of the elevator car, and a second display being configured to display a media content;
- obtaining, by the control system, a triggering event associated with the elevator system which has a higher priority than those of the contents regarding an operating state of the elevator car and the media content displayed by the plurality of displays;
- and
- changing, by the control system, the contents regarding the operating state of the elevator car displayed on the first display and the media content displayed on the second display, and causing a display of a same content regarding the triggering event on all displays of the plurality of displays based on the triggering event and the priority associated with each of the application contents,
- wherein the triggering event is obtained when none of the plurality of displays has become faulty.
