Error data reporting for entrance systems

Abstract

An error data reporting arrangement (20) is disclosed which is for use in an entrance system (10) having one or more movable door members (DM1 . . . DMn) and an automatic door operator (30) for causing movement of the one or more movable door members (DM1 . . . DMn) between closed and open positions. The error data reporting arrangement 20 comprises a controller (22), a memory (24) and a communication interface (26). The controller (22) is configured for repeatedly collecting event data in the entrance system (10), and for maintaining a set of recent event data in the memory (24) while discarding older event data. The controller (22) is moreover configured for detecting an error condition in the entrance system (10), and, upon detecting the error condition, for generating an error report (27) which comprises information representing the error condition together with information representing the maintained set of recent event data. The controller (22) is furthermore configured for causing transmission (28) of the error report (27) via the communication interface (26) to a remote data receiver (29).
