Method and device for automatic checking of the availability of technical equipment in or at a building
First Claim
1. A method for automatic checking of the availability of technical equipment in or at a building, wherein the technical equipment executes at least one repeatable procedure, comprising the steps of:
- performing at least one test of the technical equipment in which test at least one reaction of the technical equipment is registered and compared with a target reaction, wherein in the case of availability of the technical equipment the reaction corresponds with the target reaction; and
determining a measured value (Nm(i,t)) for the frequency of the performance of the procedure for a first time period is determined and the test is carried out when the measured value (Nm(i,t)) is smaller by a predetermined amount (NS(i,t)−
Nmin(i,t), Δ
NS) than a predetermined value which is set to be either equal to a first estimated value (NS(i,t)) for the frequency of the performance of the procedure for the first time period or equal to a second estimated value (NS(i,t+Δ
t)) for the frequency of the performance of the procedure for a second time period.

Abstract
The method serves for automatic checking of the availability of technical equipment which is arranged in or at a building and executes at least one repeatable procedure, and comprises the following steps. There is determined at least one estimated value (NS(i,t)) for the frequency of the performance of the procedure for a first time period and/or second estimated value (NS(i,t+Δt)) for the frequency of the performance of the procedure for a second time period. A measured value Nm(i,t)) for the frequency of the performance of the procedure for the first time period is determined and the measured value is compared with at least one of the estimated values (NS(i,t), NS(i,t+Δt)). If the measured value (Nm(i,t)) is smaller by a predetermined amount (NS(i,t)−Nmin(i,t), ΔNs) than the respective estimated value (NS(i,t), NS(i,t+Δt)) at least one test of the technical equipment is carried out, in which test at least one reaction of the technical equipment is registered and compared with a target reaction, wherein in the case of availability of the technical equipment the reaction corresponds with the target reaction.

7. A device for automatic checking of the availability of technical equipment in or at a building, which technical equipment includes a control and executes at least one repeatable procedure, which device comprises:
-
a command transmitter by which a predetermined command for execution of at least one test of the technical equipment can be given to the control, wherein the test is so selected that in the case of availability of the technical equipment a target reaction of the equipment can be registered;
a registration device for registration of a reaction which follows the command of the technical equipment; and
a device for comparison of the reaction with the target reaction including;
equipment for determining and/or storing a first estimated value (NS(i,t)) for the frequency of the performance of the procedure for a first time period and/or for determination and/or storage of a second estimated value (NS(i,t+Δ
t)) for the frequency of the performance of the procedure for a second time period;
a measuring device determining a measured value (Nm(i,t)) for the frequency of the performance of the procedure for the first time period; and
a control device for controlling the command transmitter in such a manner that the command is given when the measured value (Nm(i,t)) is smaller by a predetermined amount (NS(i,t)−
Nmin(i,t), Δ
Ns) than one of the estimated values (NS(i,t), NS(i,t+Δ
t)). - View Dependent Claims (8, 9)

10. A method for automatic checking of the availability of elevator equipment in a building, wherein the elevator equipment executes at least one repeatable procedure, comprising the steps of:
-
performing at least one test of the elevator equipment in which test at least one reaction of the elevator equipment is registered and compared with a target reaction, wherein in the case of availability of the elevator equipment the reaction corresponds with the target reaction; and
determining a measured value (Nm(i,t)) for the frequency of the performance of the procedure for a first time period is determined and the test is carried out when the measured value (Nm(i,t)) is smaller by a predetermined amount (NS(i,t)−
Nmin(i,t), Δ
NS) than a predetermined value which is set to be either equal to a first estimated value (NS(i,t)) for the frequency of the performance of the procedure for the first time period or equal to a second estimated value (NS(i,t+Δ
t)) for the frequency of the performance of the procedure for a second time period. - View Dependent Claims (11)
