The supervisor column of the hoist-
way screen provides traffic mode and
Estimated Time of Arrival informa-
tion for the group.
Traffic Mode: (Balanced in this
example) Displays the current oper-
ating mode. This mode may be
selected manually, by timer, or auto-
matically according to iCue analysis
of real-time traffic conditions.
• Balanced: All elevator traffic
within the building is receiving
equal priority from the group.
• Lobby Peak: Designated lobby
floors are receiving priority
attention. Generally active dur-
ing morning arrival times when
traffic is heaviest departing the
lobby for other floors.
• Demand Up Peak: Upward
bound traffic is given priority. If
assigned dynamically, made
active when approximately 80%
of building traffic is in the up
direction.
• Demand Down Peak: Down-
ward bound traffic is given pri-
ority. If assigned dynamically,
made active when approxi-
mately 80% of building traffic is
in the down direction.
• Automatic: The traffic mode is
being controlled dynamically by
iCue according to real time traf-
fic analysis and learned build-
ing traffic patterns.
ETA: Estimated Time of Arrival. The time, in whole seconds, in which iCue estimates a regis-
tered hall call will be serviced. ETA counts in the blue zone indicate a rear hall call. ETA counts
in the orange zone indicate a front hall call.
• Up / Down Columns: When a hall call is placed, its ETA will be displayed in the Up or
Down (as appropriate) hall column next to the floor from which the car was placed. The
ETA will count down to the arrival of the responding car.
• Non-directional: An ETA in the left-most column indicates a non-directional "hall" call
has been placed at this floor. Non-directional calls are calls that do not indicate a
requested direction of travel. For example, CFSS calls, EMS calls, etc.
• ETA Filtering: Click the ETA button to set up filtering criteria for displayed calls. (Dialog
shown with supervisor column illustration.)
