Embodiment 1 FIG.
The first embodiment will be described below with reference to FIGS. FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing a configuration of an elevator destination floor registration apparatus. The elevator destination floor registration device according to the first embodiment includes a hall operation panel 1, a destination floor candidate determination unit 2, an elevator control panel 3, and a recording device 4.

The hall operation panel 1 is used to register a destination floor. The hall operating panel 1 includes user identification information acquisition means 1a, destination floor candidate display means 1b, and destination floor candidate confirmation / switching means 1c.

The user identification information acquisition unit 1a is for acquiring user identification information from a user. The user identification information is information for identifying the individual user. For example, a user ID (a combination of alphanumeric characters of multiple digits) registered in an ID card (Identification Card) possessed by the user. ) Etc. The user identification information acquisition means 1a is, for example, a contactless card reader that is a personal authentication device. When the user holds his / her ID card over the user identification information acquisition unit 1a, the user identification information acquisition unit 1a can acquire the user identification information of the user. The user identification information acquisition unit 1 a transmits the acquired user identification information to the destination floor candidate determination unit 2.
Note that the user identification information acquisition unit 1a only needs to be able to acquire information that can identify a user. For example, a system for analyzing and identifying a user's face image captured by a camera, and analyzing and identifying a user's voiceprint Or a system for authenticating a user's fingerprint. In that case, any one of a face image, a voiceprint, and a fingerprint corresponds to the user identification information.

The destination floor candidate display means 1b displays a destination floor candidate and is, for example, a liquid crystal display. A destination floor candidate is a list of floors of destination candidates determined by a destination floor candidate determination means described later. The list of candidate floors may be composed of only one floor, or may be composed of a plurality of floors.

The destination floor candidate confirmation / switching means 1c confirms the destination floor from among the destination floor candidates or automatically determines the destination floor from among the destination floor candidates by the operation of the user. Further, the destination floor candidate confirmation / switching unit 1c can switch the floor to be determined from among the destination floor candidates by the user's operation, and can determine the floor after the switching. A call registration in which the confirmed floor is registered as the destination floor among the destination floor candidates is transmitted to the car allocating means 3c.
Further, the destination floor candidate confirmation / switching means 1c is an input interface, and includes any one of a numeric keypad, a button provided separately from the numeric keypad, a button for switching whether or not the code is required, or a car call button. The destination floor candidate confirmation / switching means 1c may be composed of one button for switching the floor that is the target of the destination floor from among the destination floor candidates, and if the button is not operated for a predetermined time, the destination floor The destination floor is determined from the floor candidates. With such a configuration, it is not necessary to provide two or more buttons constituting the destination floor candidate confirmation / switching unit 1c, and the number of buttons can be reduced to one.

The destination floor candidate determination means 2 determines a destination floor candidate based on at least one of attribute information, frequency information, and time zone frequency information corresponding to the user identification information of the user. The attribute information, the frequency information, and the frequency information for each time zone are read from the recording device 4 that is a recording unit.
The determined destination floor candidate may be composed of only one floor, or may be composed of a plurality of floors.
Details of the user attribute information, frequency information, or frequency information for each time zone will be described later.
The destination floor candidate determination means 2 may be provided in the elevator control panel 3 or separately from the elevator control panel 3.

The destination floor candidate determination unit 2 includes an attribute determination unit 2a, a frequency determination unit 2b, and a time determination unit 2c.
The attribute determination unit 2a selects a destination floor candidate of the user based on attribute information corresponding to the user identification information recorded in the recording device 4 and acquired by the user identification information acquisition unit 1a.
The frequency determination unit 2b determines the destination floor candidate of the user based on the registration frequency of the elevator corresponding to the user identification information recorded by the recording device 4 and acquired by the user identification information acquisition unit 1a.

The elevator control panel 3 includes a clock 3a, selection means 3b, and car assignment means 3c.
The selection unit 3b determines the destination floor candidate determined by the destination floor candidate determination unit 2 based on at least one of the attribute information, the frequency information, and the time-based frequency information recorded in the recording device 4, or Select whether destination floor candidates can be switched.
In the first embodiment, when there is only one destination floor candidate, “confirm” is selected. When there are a plurality of destination floor candidates, “switchable” is selected. When “confirm” is selected, the selection unit 3b transmits a call registration in which the destination floor candidate is registered as the destination floor to the car allocation unit 3c. The registered destination floor is displayed on the destination floor candidate display means 1b.
When “switchable” is selected, the user operates the destination floor candidate confirmation / switching means 1c while viewing the destination floor candidates displayed on the destination floor candidate display means 1b, so that the destination among the destination floor candidates is displayed. The floor registered as a floor can be switched. Call registration in which the floor determined after switching is registered as the destination floor is transmitted to the car allocating means 3c.
The car allocating means 3c is for allocating a car to be moved to the registered destination floor. The car allocating unit 3c receives call registration including the destination floor registered by the selecting unit 3b or the destination floor candidate confirmation / switching unit 1c, and allocates a car.

The recording device 4 includes a non-volatile recording medium or a recording medium such as a flash memory, and records information related to destination floor candidates corresponding to the user identification information of each user. The information related to the destination floor candidate is “elevator usage history”, “attribute information”, “frequency information”, and “frequency information by time zone” of each user.
For example, in the case of an elevator in a residential apartment, “attribute information” is “adult”, “child”, “resident”, “visitor”, “administrator”, and the like. In the case of an elevator in an office building, “company A employee”, “company B employee”, “customer”, “administrator”, and the like. There may be two or more pieces of attribute information associated with the user ID.
“Elevator use history” includes “user ID”, “use floor”, “destination floor”, “date”, “day of the week”, and “time” for each use of each user. It is associated.
“Frequency information” is obtained by counting the number of times a user uses an elevator within a specific period for each same condition. The specific period is, for example, “one year”, “one month”, “one week”, or “one day”. Further, the condition here means that the use floor and the destination floor are the same, or at least the destination floor is the same.
The “frequency information for each time zone” is obtained by distributing the number of times counted in the “frequency information” for each time zone based on the time when the user uses the elevator.

An example of information recorded in the recording device 4 is shown in FIGS. 2A to 2C. In this example, the setting is a 5-story office building where Company A and Company B are occupying, Company A's office is on the 4th to 5th floors, and Company B's office is on the 3rd floor. Shall. The first floor is a reception space, and the second floor is a building with a canteen. In other words, the recording device 4 records that the first floor and the second floor are freely accessible floors (non-dedicated floors), the third floor is a company B dedicated floor, and the fourth and fifth floors are a company A dedicated floor. .
The user ID in which “company A employee” is associated with the attribute information is set so that the third floor cannot be registered as the destination floor, and “company B employee” is associated with the attribute information. The user ID is set so that the fourth and fifth floors cannot be registered as destination floors.
In addition, the first and second floors are generally open floors, and there is no attribute information specified for the setting that the first and second floors cannot be registered as destination floors, so the first and second floors are non-dedicated floors. It is recorded in the recording device 4.

As an example, FIG. 2A shows information in which each user ID is associated with attribute information. In the example shown in FIG. 2A, the attribute information of the person whose user ID is “A10” is recorded as attribute information 1 “employee of company A”.

The recording device 4 records the elevator usage history of each user ID. Here, as an example, FIG. 2B shows the “elevator status” of the person with the user ID “A10” in the past week. "Use history" information. It is assumed that the work desk of the person “A10” is on the fifth floor.
The information shown in FIG. 2B will be described using the usage history of usage number 1. This is a use in which a person with a user ID “A10” performs call registration with the destination floor set to the fifth floor from the first floor and the elevator from the first floor to the fifth floor. In this case, the first floor is the usage floor. This call registration was performed at 8:03 on Monday, June 20.
A usage number is assigned to each usage history. In the example of FIG. 2B, a total of 16 uses are recorded.
Use

numbers

1, 5, 9, 13 and 15 go to work,

use numbers

2 and 10 go to the cafeteria,

use numbers

3 and 11 return from the cafeteria,

use numbers

4, 8, 12, and 14 leave and use Numbers 6 and 16 are used for going out, and use number 7 is used for an elevator by returning from the outside.
The usage number 15 is that the destination floor is the fourth floor. On this day, after working on the fourth floor, it is assumed that the stairs were used to go to the work desk on the fifth floor.

As an example, in FIG. 2C, based on the example of FIG. 2B, “frequency information” and “frequency information by time zone” based on the information of “elevator use history” for one week of the person whose user ID is “A10”. Is shown. In the example of FIG. 2C, the frequency information for each time zone is divided into four time zones.
The time zone corresponding to the frequency information 1 by time zone is from 06:00 to 12:00, and is the working hours in the morning.
The time zone corresponding to the frequency information 2 by time zone is 12:00 to 13:00, which is the time zone at lunch.
The time zone corresponding to the frequency information 3 by time zone is from 13:00 to 18:00, and is an afternoon working time zone.
The time zone corresponding to the time zone frequency information 4 is from 18:00 to 24:00, which is the overtime time zone.
Note that an elevator administrator can arbitrarily set a time zone delimiter in the frequency information for each time zone using a terminal for setting the elevator.
In the example of FIG. 2B, the person with the user ID “A10” performs call registration with the use floor “1F” and the destination floor “5F” a total of five times. That is, the usage frequency information of the usage floor “1F” and the destination floor “5F” is “5 times”. When this usage frequency information is distributed to the frequency information by time zone, the frequency information 1 by time zone is “4 times”, the frequency information 2 by time zone is “0 times”, and the frequency information 3 by time zone is “1 time”. The frequency information 4 by time zone is “0”.

Next, the operation of the elevator destination floor registration device will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing the operation of the elevator destination floor registration apparatus according to the first embodiment.

In step S101, the user ID is read from the user ID card from the user identification information acquisition unit 1a, and the user ID is transmitted to the destination floor candidate determination unit 2.

In step S102, the destination floor candidate determination unit 2 determines a destination floor candidate based on information corresponding to the user ID recorded in the recording device 4, and the destination floor candidate is displayed as a destination floor candidate display unit 1b and a selection unit 3b. Send to.

In step S103, the destination floor candidate display means 1b displays the destination floor candidates received from the destination floor candidate determination means 2.

In step S104, the selection unit 3b selects whether to confirm the destination floor candidate or to switch the destination floor candidate based on the number of floors included in the destination floor candidate. When the destination floor candidate is only one floor (in the case of Yes), confirm is selected, and the process proceeds to step S104. When the destination floor candidate is composed of two or more floors (in the case of No), the switchable is selected, and the process proceeds to step S107.

In step S105, the control unit of the hall operating panel 1 determines whether the destination floor candidate confirmation / switching unit 1c has not been operated for a predetermined time. If no operation is performed for a predetermined time (in the case of Yes), the floor selected in the destination floor candidates displayed on the destination floor candidate display means 1b is determined as the destination floor, and the process proceeds to step S107. When operated within the predetermined time (in the case of No), the process proceeds to step S106. The predetermined time is several seconds, for example, 3 to 10 seconds. The predetermined time may be changed according to the number of uses recorded in the elevator use history. For example, in the case of a user ID with a large number of uses, the predetermined time may be set shorter.

In step S106, the floor selected in the plurality of floors constituting the destination floor candidate is switched based on the operation of the destination floor candidate confirmation / switching means 1c. Thereafter, the process returns to step S105. The selected floor is reflected on the screen displayed by the destination floor candidate display means 1b.

In step S107, the call registration in which the floor determined in step S106 is registered as the destination floor is transmitted to the car allocating means 3c. In step S107, the call registration registered with the destination floor as one destination floor candidate in the case of Yes in step S104 is automatically transmitted to the car assignment unit 3c.

Here, the flowchart of FIG. 6 will be further described using the example of FIG. 2C.
In step S101, when the person a who is an employee of the company A holds the ID card, which is his / her employee ID card, over the card reader which is the user identification information acquisition means 1a, the card reader records the user ID recorded on the ID card. Is obtained, and A10 is transmitted to the destination floor candidate determination means.
In step S102, the destination floor candidate determination means 2 reads information corresponding to A10 from the recording device 4, and determines a destination floor candidate.
A method of determining a destination floor candidate will be described. In step S101, the destination floor candidate determination unit 2 acquires information on the floor on which the user identification information acquisition unit 1a that acquired the user ID is installed, that is, information on the usage floor. Further, the destination floor candidate determination unit 2 acquires the time when the user identification information acquisition unit 1a acquires the user ID from the clock 3a.

From here, the flow from determination of a destination floor candidate to call registration will be described based on the following four cases 1 to 4.
Case 1: When the usage floor is the fifth floor and the time when the user ID is acquired is 18:15 Case 2: When the usage floor is the fifth floor and the time when the user ID is acquired is 12:10 Case 3 : When the usage floor is the first floor and the time when the user ID is acquired is 8:15 Case 4: When the usage floor is the fourth floor and the time when the user ID is acquired is 10:01

In the case 1, the past use history of the elevator of A10 when the use floor is the fifth floor is confirmed. FIG. 2C records that when the usage floor is the fifth floor, the usage frequency is 6 times when the destination floor is the first floor, and the usage frequency is 2 times when the destination floor is the second floor. Here, the first floor and the second floor may be determined as destination floor candidates, but in order to further improve the convenience for the user, the destination floor candidates are determined using the frequency information for each time zone.
When the frequency information 4 by time zone in the elevator usage history corresponding to 18:15 is confirmed, if the use floor is the fifth floor, the frequency information 4 by time zone when the destination floor is the first floor is four times. It is recorded that the frequency information 4 for each time zone when the floor is the second floor is 0 times.
Therefore, in case 1, the destination floor candidate determination means 2 determines only the first floor as a destination floor candidate.

In case 2, the past use history of the elevator of A10 when the use floor is the fifth floor is confirmed. FIG. 2C records that when the usage floor is the fifth floor, the usage frequency is 6 times when the destination floor is the first floor, and the usage frequency is 2 times when the destination floor is the second floor.
When the frequency information 2 by time zone in the elevator usage history corresponding to 12:10 is confirmed, if the use floor is the fifth floor, the frequency information 2 by time zone when the destination floor is the first floor is once, the destination It is recorded that the frequency information 2 for each time zone when the floor is the second floor was recorded twice.
Therefore, in case 2, the destination floor candidate determination means 2 determines the first floor and the second floor as destination floor candidates.

In case 3, the past use history of the elevator of A10 when the use floor is the first floor is confirmed. FIG. 2C records that when the use floor is the first floor, the use frequency is 5 times when the destination floor is the fifth floor, and the use frequency is once when the destination floor is the fourth floor.
When the frequency information 1 by time zone in the elevator usage history corresponding to 8:15 is confirmed, when the use floor is the first floor, the frequency information by time zone 1 when the destination floor is the fifth floor is four times, the destination It is recorded that the frequency information 1 for each time zone when the floor is the second floor was once.
Therefore, in case 3, the destination floor candidate determination means 2 determines the fifth floor and the fourth floor as destination floor candidates.

In case 4, confirm the past usage history of the elevator of A10 when the use floor is the 4th floor. In FIG. 2C, there is no use history when the use floor is the first floor. Therefore, a destination floor remaining in the use history in the past is determined as a destination floor candidate. In case 4, the destination floor candidate determination means 2 determines the fifth floor, the first floor, and the second floor as destination floor candidates.

In step S103, the destination floor candidate display means 1b displays the destination floor candidates determined by the destination floor candidate determination means 2. In case 1, only the first floor is displayed. In case 2, the first and second floors are displayed. In case 3, the fifth and fourth floors are displayed. In case 4, the fifth, first, and second floors are displayed as destination floor candidates. Is done.

FIG. 4A shows the hall operating panel 1 of the first embodiment, and the display contents in the case 2 are shown in the destination floor candidate display means 1b. The destination floor candidate confirmation / switching unit 1c in FIG. 4A has a function as a call registration button.
In case 2, the destination floor is 1st floor frequency information 2 and the destination floor is 2nd floor frequency information 2 twice, so the second floor is the first floor. The value of the frequency information by time zone is larger than that. Therefore, since it can be determined that the user has a higher probability of selecting the second floor than the first floor, the destination floor candidates are displayed on the destination floor candidate display means 1b in a state where the second floor is selected. The selected state is the floor indicated by the left-pointing arrow shown in the destination floor candidate display means 1b in FIG.
The information displayed on the destination floor candidate display means 1b may display not only the destination floor candidates but also the floors that are excluded from the destination floor candidates. In the example of the case 2, since the employee ID of the user ID is associated with the user ID A10 and the employee of the company A is associated, the third floor, which is the exclusive floor of the company B, is not a target that can be registered as the destination floor. Therefore, only the 4th floor is displayed on the destination floor candidate display means 1b as the floor that has been excluded from the destination floor candidates.

In step S104, the selection unit 3b determines whether a predetermined condition is satisfied. The predetermined condition in the first embodiment is whether or not the destination floor candidate is only one floor.
In case 1, since the destination floor candidate is only one floor and the predetermined condition is satisfied, “Yes” is selected in step S104, that is, “Confirm” is selected, and the selection means 3b selects the destination floor candidate as the destination floor. Call registration to be transmitted to the car allocating means 3c.
In case 2, case 3 and case 4, since there are a plurality of destination floor candidates and the predetermined condition is not satisfied, No is selected in step S104, that is, “switchable” is selected, and destination floor candidate confirmation / switching means is selected. The destination floor candidate is transmitted to 1c.

In step S105, when the user does not operate the destination floor candidate confirmation / switching unit 1c for a predetermined time, the floor selected in the destination floor candidates is “confirmed” as the destination floor. If the user operates the destination floor candidate confirmation / switching unit 1c within a predetermined time, the process proceeds to step S106.
Here, based on Case 2, the configuration of the destination floor candidate confirmation / switching means 1c and the display contents of the destination floor candidate display means 1b will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 4A shows the hall operating panel 1 installed on the fifth floor. Here, since the 5th floor is the top floor in the example building to be described, the destination floor candidate confirmation / switching means 1c of the hall operating panel 1 installed on the 5th floor has only one button with a down arrow printed thereon. It is configured.
In case 2, the destination floor candidates determined by the destination floor candidate determination means 2 are the second floor and the first floor, and the second floor and the first floor are displayed as the destination floor candidates on the destination floor candidate display means 1b in the step S103. Is done.
In step S106, when the user presses the button of the destination floor candidate confirmation / switching means 1c within a predetermined time (performs a switching operation), the process proceeds to step S106.

In step S106, the floor selected in the destination floor candidates is switched based on the operation content of the destination floor candidate confirmation / switching means 1c. When the button of the destination floor candidate confirmation / switching unit 1c is pressed once, the first floor is selected as shown in FIG. 4B. When the button of the destination floor candidate confirmation / switching unit 1c is pressed twice, the fourth floor is selected as shown in FIG. When the button of the destination floor candidate confirmation / switching unit 1c is pressed three times, the state returns to the state shown in FIG. 4A, that is, returns to the state where the second floor is selected.

In step S107, the call registration in which the floor determined in the state selected in step S106 is registered as the destination floor is transmitted to the car allocating means 3c. In step S107, the call registration registered with the destination floor as one destination floor candidate in the case of Yes in step S104 is automatically transmitted to the car assignment unit 3c.

When using the hall operating panel 1 shown in FIG. 4 of the first embodiment, when the user presses the destination floor candidate confirmation / switching unit 1c without holding the ID card over the user identification information acquiring unit 1a, That is, when the destination floor candidate confirmation / switching unit 1c is pressed in a state where the user identification information acquisition unit 1a has not acquired a user ID, it is determined that the user is a general person who does not have an ID card. Therefore, the destination floor candidate display means 1b may be configured to display the first floor and / or the second floor as destination floor candidates.
As an example, when the destination floor candidate confirmation / switching means 1c is pressed in a state in which the user identification information acquisition means 1a does not acquire the user ID on the hall operating panel 1 installed on the first floor, the destination floor candidate The display means 1b displays the second floor as a destination floor candidate. Further, when the destination floor candidate confirmation / switching means 1c is pressed in a state where the user ID information acquisition means 1a has not acquired the user ID on the hall operation panel 1 installed on the second floor, the destination floor candidate display means In 1b, the first floor is displayed as a destination floor candidate. In these cases, since the destination floor candidate is only one floor, the destination floor is automatically registered by the selection means 3b.
Further, for example, it is assumed that the employee of company A presses the destination floor candidate confirmation / switching means 1c without holding his / her ID card on the hall operating panel 1 installed on the fifth floor. In such a case, the destination floor candidate determination means 2 determines only the first and second floors, which are non-dedicated floors, as destination floor candidates, and displays them on the destination floor candidate display means 1b. The third floor, which is a dedicated floor, is the destination floor. It is good also as a structure which is not displayed on the candidate display means 1b.

According to the first embodiment, when a predetermined condition is satisfied, the destination floor candidate is automatically called and registered as the destination floor based on the selection by the selection means 3b, so that the user can confirm / switch the destination floor candidate. It is not necessary to operate the means 1c to set the destination floor candidates to the destination floor, and the time to call registration can be shortened. Therefore, the elevator destination floor registration apparatus is highly convenient for the user. it can.
The predetermined condition in the first embodiment is that the destination floor candidate determined by the destination floor candidate determination unit 2 is only one floor.

Further, when the destination floor candidate confirmation / switching unit 1c is not operated for a predetermined time as a confirmation operation (confirmation operation), a button for selecting confirmation is not necessary, and the destination floor candidate confirmation / switching unit 1c One button may be used for switching the floor selected in the plurality of floors constituting the floor candidate. Therefore, since the number of buttons of the destination floor candidate confirmation / switching unit 1c can be reduced, the user does not get confused about which button to press, so that it is possible to provide a highly convenient elevator destination floor registration apparatus. Furthermore, since the number of buttons of the destination floor candidate confirmation / switching means 1c can be reduced, the manufacturing cost of the destination floor candidate confirmation / switching means 1c can be reduced.
The destination floor candidate confirmation / switching means 1c may be one button for switching the floor selected in the plurality of floors constituting the destination floor candidate, so that it can be used on the hall operation panel on the top floor or the bottom floor. The arranged call registration button can be used as the destination floor candidate confirmation / switching means 1c.

Further, every time the user identification information acquisition unit 1a acquires the user identification information, the destination floor candidate determination unit 2 selects the destination floor candidate based on the information recorded in the storage device 4. Therefore, the elevator administrator does not need to manually record the destination floor candidates for each user identification information in the recording device 4 in advance, and the elevator destination floor registration device is highly convenient for the elevator administrator. can do.

In the second embodiment, attribute information of “company A employee” and “sales department” is associated with the user ID of A10. Note that the attribute information associated with the user ID may be three or more.

Further, FIG. 5B shows information in which a priority destination floor is assigned to specific attribute information recorded in the recording device 4. In the second embodiment, “fifth floor” is pre-assigned as priority destination floor information to the user ID associated with the attribute information of “company A employee” and “sales department”. In this way, one priority destination floor is recorded in advance in the recording device 4 for a combination of one or a plurality of attribute information.
The reason for this assignment is that the office of the sales department of company A is only on the fifth floor. Since the development department rooms of Company A are on the fourth and fifth floors, no priority destination floor is assigned to the attribute information of “development department”.
Since the person with user ID “A10” belongs to the sales department of company A, the user ID associated with the attribute information of “employee of company A” and “sales department” is recorded. I have an ID card.

The operation of the elevator destination floor registration apparatus according to the second embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing the operation of the elevator destination floor registration apparatus according to the second embodiment. Note that the same steps as those in the flowchart of FIG. 3 of the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, and description thereof is omitted.

In step S204, the selection unit 3b determines whether predetermined attribute information is associated with the user ID acquired in step S101. Information shown in FIG. 5B is used for this determination.
When the acquired user ID is A10, the attribute information of “company A employee” and “development department” is associated with A10. Therefore, if the predetermined attribute information is associated, the selecting unit 3b Judgment is made, “determined” is selected (Yes is selected in step S204), and the process proceeds to step S207.

In step S207, the selection unit 3b determines whether the priority destination floor associated with the predetermined attribute information is included in the destination floor candidates.
In the case 3 described in the first embodiment, the destination floor candidate determination unit 2 determines the fifth floor and the fourth floor as destination floor candidates. When the attribute information of “company A employee” and “development department” is satisfied, the fifth floor is recorded in the recording device 4 as the priority destination floor. In this case, the priority destination floor is included in the destination floor candidates. (Yes is selected in step S207). Therefore, when the priority destination floor is included in the destination floor candidates in step S207, the process proceeds to step S107, and the call registration in which the priority destination floor is registered as the destination floor is transmitted to the car assignment unit 3c.
The registered destination floor is displayed on the destination floor candidate display means 1b.
If the acquired user ID is A20 instead of A10, the attribute information of “company A employee” and “development department” is not associated with A20, and thus the predetermined attribute information is not associated. The selection unit 3b selects “switchable” (No is selected in step S204).

According to the second embodiment, the same effect as in the first embodiment can be obtained.
According to the second embodiment, when a predetermined condition is satisfied, the destination floor candidate is automatically called and registered as the destination floor based on the selection by the selection means 3b, so that the user can confirm / switch the destination floor candidate. It is not necessary to operate the means 1c to set the destination floor candidates to the destination floor, and the time to call registration can be shortened. Therefore, the elevator destination floor registration apparatus is highly convenient for the user. it can.
The predetermined condition in the second embodiment is that the attribute information associated with the user identification information acquired by the user identification information acquisition unit 1a matches a predetermined condition of attribute information. .
