Referring to FIG. 4, when the user presses the UP or DOWN button, the user inputs the processor 51 in a low state for a time when the button is pressed (51).

The input signal of the UP or DOWN button is transmitted to the elevator control panel through the HN controller board regardless of the present invention. Then, the LAMP lighting signal of the elevator button is generated by the UP or DOWN button LAMP lighting signal through the HN controller board in the control panel so that the UP or DOWN button LAMP is turned on, and this signal is input to the processor (52).

This UP or DOWN LAMP is sent to the HN controller board from the control panel when the elevator almost arrives, and the LAMP of the UP or DOWN button is turned off (52).

The LAMP extinguished signal is detected by the processor to drive the buzzer for a predetermined time with the UP sound or the DOWN sound (54).

In addition, a signal for flickering the UP or DOWN button LAMP output is generated so that the LAMP of the UP or DOWN button blinks separately from the HN controller BOARD signal (53).

UP or DOWN Button When the LAMP signal turns off within a predetermined time period (usually within 3 seconds), it is not normal operation of the elevator and if the UP or DOWN button is pressed in the middle of closing the door after the elevator stops, UP or DOWN LAMP It may turn on or off. In such an abnormal operation state, the elevator control apparatus according to the present invention may detect the UP or DOWN button LAMP lighting time so as not to operate to determine the normal operation or the disregard state.

Referring to Figure 5, the elevator control device determines the input state of the UP or DOWN button (S61, S62).

As a result of the determination in step S61 or S62, if there is a button input, the elevator control device detects the lighting of the LAMP of the UP or DOWN button (S63, S64).

As a result of the determination in step S63 or S64, when the LAMP of the UP or DOWN button is detected to be lit, the elevator control device detects that the UP or DOWN LAMP is turned off (S65, S66).

As a result of the determination in step S65 or S66, when the lamp of the UP or DOWN button is turned off, the elevator control device detects the time when the button LAMP is turned off to determine whether it is 3 seconds or longer (S67, S68). .

As a result of the determination in step S67 or S68, if the time when the button LAMP is turned off from lighting is within 3 seconds, the elevator control device ignores the operation during that time and switches to the initial state (reset). In other words, the process branches to the step S61 or the step S62.

On the other hand, if the time that the button LAMP is turned off from the lighting is more than 3 seconds, the elevator control device generates a predetermined time for the predetermined UP or DOWN buzzer (BUZZER) sound, and blinks the button LAMP for a predetermined time (S69, S70).

The UP BUZZER sound may be programmed to generate a sound that is gradually higher, and the DOWN BUZZER sound may be programmed to produce a sound that is generally audible.
