Residents Access Designated Floors without Pressing Buttons

Residents can access their floors by scanning their faces or swiping RF cards inside an elevator without pressing the elevator button.

The project can be deployed on the SmartPlus Cloud or locally.

Except for A094, A08, and E20, all Akuvox door phones and access control terminals support integration with EC33.

In this article, we use the access control A05 and the elevator control EC33 as examples.

Wiring

The buttons should be connected in series to enable residents to arrive at their floors without pressing the elevator button.

Configuration for Cloud Projects

Installers need to configure relevant parameters on the elevator control and access control’s web interfaces as well as SmartPlus Cloud. Property managers or end users need to set up the access methods.

1. Log into the device’s web interface with the username and password. The default is admin.

2. Navigate to the Device > Relay > Open Relay Via HTTP interface and enable Open Relay via HTTP.

3. Customize the username and password for HTTP authentication.

4. [Optional]Scroll to Relay Setting to configure the relay trigger and delay time.

• Trigger Delay(Sec): the elevator relay will be triggered in certain seconds after using the access method.

• Hold Delay(Sec): the elevator relay will last for certain seconds after it is triggered.

5. Click Submit to save the configuration.
