First Claim
1. A system for generating a request for elevator service, characterized in that the system comprises:
- a base station (10) for transmitting a general transmission;
a terminal (11) for receiving the general transmission and generating a service request;
an edge server (12) for receiving and checking the service request from the terminal (11);
a local server (13) for connection of communication between the elevator group and the external world; and
a group controller (14) for controlling the elevator group and generating, status information to be sent to the terminal (11) via the local server (13).

Abstract
A method and a system for generating a request for elevator service in which the elevator user receives with his/her terminal a general transmission of information about the elevator system from base stations placed in the elevator lobby of the building. By way of the terminal, a service request is generated on the basis of the goal and the information provided by the general transmission. The service request is transmitted further to an elevator group controller via an edge server and a local server. The edge server checks the request for correctness, and the local server functions as a point of connection between the elevator group and the external world.
