Differentiating elevator car door and landing door operating problems

A method of auditing the operation of an elevator door system of an elevator which makes runs to a plurality of landings, said door system including a landing door at each of said landings and a car door;

• which method comprises:
• during an interval of time, monitoring the value of one or more parameters related to elevator door operation;
• determining when the current value of any one of said parameters is notable and the landing at which said elevator is located when any said notable value occurs;
• determining the number of runs to any of said landings for which the value of said one parameter is notable, during said interval;
• during said interval of time, determining the total number of runs respectively made to each of said landings;
• determining the ratio of the number of runs to all of said landings in which said one parameter value was notable to the total number of runs made to all said landings during said interval;
• if (a) said one parameter value was notable at more than one of said landings and (b) said ratio exceeds a threshold value;
• providing a maintenance message indicating that said notable parameter value relates to said car door, otherwise providing a maintenance message indicating that said notable parameter value relates to ones of said landings at which said notable parameter value occurred.
