An elevator safety system comprises an elevator system component, an actuator configured to cause a change in a status of the elevator system component, a data bus, a safety controller configured to communicate via the data bus, a sensor configured to detect the change in the status of the elevator system component where the detecting includes generating, at the sensor, information indicating the change in the status of the elevator system component, and an elevator system node associated with the sensor and configured to communicate the information indicating the change in the status of the elevator system component to the safety controller via the data bus. The safety controller is configured to link, in a memory of the safety controller and subsequently to the information being communicated to the safety controller, an address associated with the elevator system node with an identifier of the elevator system component.
