When the car is located on the second floor and the first floor dedicated landing button is operated in step S11, the process proceeds to step S12, the first floor dedicated landing call is registered, and the car is moved to the first floor by a circuit (not shown). Let the service. Next, if it is detected in step S13 that the car has arrived on the first floor and the door has been opened, the process proceeds to step S14. If it is detected that the passenger has entered the car, a dedicated car call on the second floor is issued in step S16. Automatically register and turn on the car call registration light for exclusive use on the second floor in the car. Also, an announcement is made that the car call on the second floor has been automatically registered, and the passenger is informed that the operation of the destination button is unnecessary. Next, in step S17, a dedicated operation mode is set, the door opening time is extended from normal 5 seconds to 10 seconds, and the door closing speed is reduced to about 70%. When the door is fully closed, it will depart to the second floor. If it is determined in step S14 that the user does not board for a predetermined time, for example, 10 seconds, the process ends without registering a car call on the second floor in step S15.
If the first floor dedicated landing button is not operated in step S11, the process proceeds to step S18. When the general hall button on the first floor is operated in step S18, the process proceeds to step S19, where the general hall call on the first floor is registered, and the car is serviced to the first floor by a circuit (not shown). Next, if it is detected in step S20 that the car has arrived on the first floor, the process proceeds to step S21, and if it is detected that a passenger has entered the car, a general car call on the second floor is automatically registered in step S23. Turn on the 2nd floor general car call registration lamp in the car. Also, an announcement is made that the car call on the second floor has been automatically registered, and the passenger is informed that the operation of the destination button is unnecessary.

If the dedicated hall call is not registered, the process proceeds from step S31 to step S33, and if it is opened on the second floor due to a general car call or a waiting command to the second floor after use, the process proceeds to step S34. .
In step S34, if a passenger is detected after a predetermined time (a sufficient time for passengers in the car to get off, for example, about 2 seconds) after the door is opened, the process proceeds to step S35, and a dedicated car call on the first floor is automatically registered. Turn on the car call registration lamp for the first floor in the car. The announcement will also inform you that the car call has been registered. Also, even when the car arrives due to a general car call and a standby command, the passenger may be a weak person such as a disabled person, so the dedicated operation mode is set.
Next, it progresses to step S36, and if it is before the door opening time expires, it will progress to step S37. When the dedicated door closing button is operated in step S37, the process proceeds to step S38, where the first floor dedicated car call is automatically registered, and the first floor dedicated car call registration lamp in the car is turned on. The announcement will also inform you that the car call has been registered. In this case as well, the dedicated operation mode is set. Next, in step S39, the door is closed, and when the door is fully closed, it departs toward the first floor.
If the dedicated door closing button is not operated in step S37, the process proceeds to step S40. When the general door close button is operated in step S40, the process proceeds to step S41, where the first floor general car call is automatically registered, and the first floor general car call registration lamp in the car is turned on. The announcement will also inform you that the car call has been registered. Next, in step S42, the door is closed, and when the door is fully closed, it departs toward the first floor.
Next, when the door opening time expires in step S36, the process proceeds to step S43 and the door is closed. At this time, the door closing speed is reduced in the dedicated operation mode. Next, the process proceeds to step S44, and when a passenger enters the car and detects this, the process proceeds to step S45, where the first floor dedicated car call is automatically registered, and the first floor dedicated car call registration light in the car. Lights up. The announcement will also inform you that the car call has been registered. When the door is fully closed, it departs towards the first floor. If no passenger is detected in the car at step S44, the car waits with the door closed on the second floor in step S46.
In steps S35, S38, and S45, the first floor general car call registration lamp may be turned on simultaneously with the dedicated car call registration lamp.

In the third embodiment, the car call registration by the door closing button has been described as an example. However, the car call registration by the door closing button may be stopped, and the car call may be registered only when a passenger is detected. The car call may be registered only with the door close button.
In the case of a two-way door elevator, for example, one door can serve the first floor and the second floor, and the other door can serve the first floor and the third floor.
As described above, according to the third embodiment, even when a passenger enters the car while the door is opened without registering the hall call, the car call is detected by detecting the passenger's boarding or by operating the door closing button. Is automatically registered, so there is no need to go to the landing from the inside of the car to register the hall call, and the car call is not registered unnecessarily.
