[1] to [24] in the figure correspond to [1] to [24] in FIG.

In FIG. 2, C1 to C12 are response lights on the first to twelfth floors, and S1 to S12 are service indicator lights.

In this embodiment, when the number of stops is twice, that is, 12 stops, it is treated as an in-car operation panel equivalent to 24 stops as shown in FIG.

Next, the input / output conversion processing operation will be described with reference to FIG.

FIG. 4 (a) shows the operation of processing the input from the destination button B. In step (31), the address n of the destination button B is processed.
Is set as a variable, and the floor N written at the address n is read from the data table set in the ROM in the control unit (1) in step (32) and set as the variable. Now, the process is performed as shown in the table below, and the destination button B of the address n
Is changed to the actual N floor.

FIG. 4 (b) is an operation for processing the lighting data for the response lamp C. In step (41), the address m of the response lamp C to be lit is set as a variable, and in step (42) it is set in the ROM. The lighting data M written in the address m is read from the data table and set as a variable. Then, the processing is performed as shown in the table below, and the lighting data for the response light C at the address m is changed to the response light data M.

For example, the lighting data M for the response light C1 on the first floor is "107".
Then, the response lamp [7] in FIG. 3 is turned on.
In the same manner, the response lights [7] to [18] are turned on.

FIG. 4 (c) is an operation for processing the lighting data for the response light C (service floor indicator light S), and the address l of the response light C (service floor indicator light S) that should be illuminated in step (51).
