Elevator activity level management of mobile device access
A method of managing mobile elevator call requests from a mobile device is provided. The method includes: receiving an elevator call parameter from a management interface; receiving at least one mobile elevator call request from a mobile device; comparing the mobile elevator call request to the elevator call parameter; and restricting the mobile device from sending additional mobile elevator call requests when the mobile elevator call request conflicts with the elevator call parameter.
1. A method of managing mobile elevator call requests from a mobile device, the method comprising:
receiving an elevator call parameter from a management interface;
receiving at least one mobile elevator call request from a mobile device;
comparing the mobile elevator call request to the elevator call parameter; and
restricting the mobile device from sending additional mobile elevator call requests when the mobile elevator call request conflicts with the elevator call parameter,
wherein the mobile device is restricted from sending additional mobile elevator call requests for a selected timeout period when the mobile elevator call request conflicts with the elevator call parameter.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
activating an overuse alarm on the mobile device when the mobile elevator call request conflicts with the elevator call parameter.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein:
the elevator call parameters are at least one of specific mobile device applicability and general mobile device applicability.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein:
the elevator call parameters include a selected number of mobile elevator call requests per a selected period of time for the mobile device.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein:
the elevator call parameters include a selected time of day for the elevator call parameters to apply.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein:
the elevator call parameters include a selected number of active mobile elevator call requests.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein:
the mobile elevator call request is compared to the elevator call parameter using at least one of an elevator system controller and the mobile device.
8. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
registering a mobile device with the management interface.
9. An elevator system controller comprising:
a processor;
a memory comprising computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations, the operations comprising:
receiving an elevator call parameter from a management interface;
receiving a mobile elevator call request from a mobile device;
comparing the mobile elevator call request to the elevator call parameter; and
restricting the mobile device from sending additional mobile elevator call requests when the mobile elevator call request conflicts with the elevator call parameter,
wherein the mobile device is restricted from sending additional mobile elevator call requests for a selected timeout period when the mobile elevator call request conflicts with the elevator call parameter.
10. The elevator system controller of claim 9 , wherein the operations further comprise:
activating an overuse alarm on the mobile device when the mobile elevator call request conflicts with the elevator call parameter.
11. The elevator system controller of claim 9 , wherein:
the elevator call parameters are at least one of specific mobile device applicability and general mobile device applicability.
12. The elevator system controller of claim 9 , wherein:
the elevator call parameters include a selected number of mobile elevator call requests per a selected period of time for the mobile device.
13. The elevator system controller of claim 9 , wherein:
the elevator call parameters include a selected time of day for the elevator call parameters to apply.
14. The elevator system controller of claim 9 , wherein:
the elevator call parameters include a selected number of active mobile elevator call requests.
15. The elevator system controller of claim 9 , wherein the operations further comprise:
registering a mobile device with the management interface.
16. A method of managing mobile elevator call requests from a mobile device, the method comprising:
receiving an elevator call parameter from a management interface;
receiving at least one mobile elevator call request from a mobile device;
comparing the mobile elevator call request to the elevator call parameter; and
restricting the mobile device from sending additional mobile elevator call requests when the mobile elevator call request conflicts with the elevator call parameter,
wherein the elevator call parameters include a selected number of mobile elevator call requests per a selected period of time for the mobile device.
17. A method of managing mobile elevator call requests from a mobile device, the method comprising:
receiving an elevator call parameter from a management interface;
receiving at least one mobile elevator call request from a mobile device;
comparing the mobile elevator call request to the elevator call parameter;
restricting the mobile device from sending additional mobile elevator call requests when the mobile elevator call request conflicts with the elevator call parameter; and
activating an overuse alarm on the mobile device when the mobile elevator call request conflicts with the elevator call parameter.
