Abstract

This work presents a simulation study of elevator control of an eight storied building. The total system was built using digital logic Integrated Circuits (ICs). The probable flow of events associated with movement of an elevator had been inspected and used to create a flow chart for the events. This flow chart had been used to create the logic to control the elevator and finally had been transformed into a digital electronic circuit. This electronic circuit consisted of several sub circuits which carried out sub routine tasks to ensure smooth operation of the elevator as per the flow chart. Simulation had been carried out in Proteus software. The proposed algorithm is easily scalable to “N” floor elevator system.
