Abstract
An elevator system and a method for maintenance of such an elevator system include a device for receiving a plurality of sensor signals. The device is mounted on at least one elevator car or at least one counterweight of the elevator system. The device includes at least one processor and at least one computer-readable data store in at least one device housing. A first sensor for generating a sensor signal is a position sensor and/or a speed sensor and/or an acceleration sensor which is mounted in and/or on the device housing.

60. A method of maintaining an elevator installation having a device mounted at a car or a counterweight of the elevator installation for detecting a plurality of sensor signals, comprising the steps of:
-
providing the device with a processor and a computer-readable data memory located at a device housing mounted on the car or the counterweight; providing a sensor arranged at the device housing; communicating sensor signals generated from the sensor by a signal line to at least one of the processor and the computer-readable data memory; generating from one of the sensor signals an item of maintenance information; comparing the item of maintenance information with a reference value in the processor to generate a report; in case of a negative comparison result generating the report as an alarm report and in case of a positive comparison result generating the report as a serviceability report; communicating the report to a remote maintenance center with at least one of a detected sensor signal, an evaluated sensor signal, and an item of maintenance information; and if the alarm report is communicated to the remote maintenance center, the detected sensor signal or the evaluated sensor signal or the item of maintenance information communicated with the alarm report is investigated by the remote maintenance center, and if at least one disturbance, which is linked with the alarm report, of the elevator installation cannot be eliminated in another mode and manner, a maintenance engineer who undertakes appropriate maintenance of the elevator installation on site is summoned by the remote maintenance center.
