Abstract

An elevator system includes a microprocessor-based cab controller which controls door motion and which controls the generation of stall forces in the door. The disclosed embodiment includes a dictated velocity, high-speed door profile, and a position-controlled dictated velocity profile, door motion being controlled as the difference between actual door velocity and dictated velocity. A stall mode, in which the door motor is provided with currents required to provide a desired force on the door, is invoked with the door velocity is less than a predetermined stall velocity, provided that the door is at an extreme position of traverse, the previous cycle was a stall cycle, or a hysteresis time period has elapsed with the velocity consistently less than the stall velocity. An exemplary elevator control system and microprocessor-based cab controller, as well as an exemplary overall door control program and details of the present invention are disclosed.
