installations. iCue dispatching features include:
• Design maximum 150 floors and 20-car group.
• Use artificial intelligence to adapt to and anticipate changing traffic demands.
• Allow users to define up to eight independent configurations each to control Hall Call Eli-
gibility, Parking Assignment, Parking Eligibility, and Operating Mode — and to indepen-
dently assign control of those configurations across as many as 100 automated timers
(timers not yet implemented).
• Use parallel processing to continuously and simultaneously evaluate multiple dispatching
scenarios, ensuring that every decision maximizes efficiency.
• Use a dedicated 100 Megabaud network to efficiently handle large data loads.
• Provide an intelligent parking system that allows users to define automated or hybrid
operation.
• Support the SmartLINK hall call system, MCE-ready fixtures, and predictive hall-call gong
service.
