1. An elevator apparatus, comprising:
- a car;
an operation control section for controlling an operation of the car;
a safety monitoring section for detecting an abnormal state of targets to be monitored during running of the car to stop the running of the car; and
a safety-monitoring-function inspection section for inspecting a function of the safety monitoring section, wherein;
the safety monitoring section has a function of stopping the running of the car when at least one of a plurality of elevator doors corresponding to the targets to be monitored is open; and
the safety-monitoring-function inspection section causes the safety monitoring section to detect that at least one of the elevator doors is opened even though all the elevator doors are closed while the car is running under the control of the operation control section.

Abstract
In an elevator apparatus, an operation control section controls an operation of a car. Further, a safety monitoring section detects an abnormal state of targets to be monitored during running of the car to stop the running of the car. A safety-monitoring-function inspection section inspects a function of the safety monitoring section. The safety-monitoring-function inspection section causes the safety monitoring section to detect a transition of a state of the targets to be monitored to the abnormal state regardless of an actual state of the targets to be monitored while the car is running under control of the operation control section.

5. An elevator apparatus comprising:
-
a car; opening/closing detection means for detecting opening/closing of landing doors; an unintended car movement protection device connected to the opening/closing detection means, for stopping running of the car when detecting the running of the car with at least any one of the landing doors open; and door-open recognition means for inspection, for causing the unintended car movement protection device to detect that at least one of the landing doors is opened during the running of the car even though all the landing doors are closed.

6. A method of inspecting an elevator apparatus comprising:
-
a car; an operation control section for controlling an operation of the car; and an unintended car movement protection device, for stopping running of the car when at least any one of elevator doors is open, the method comprising causing the unintended car movement protection device to detect with a safety-monitoring-function inspection section that at least one of the elevator doors is opened in a state in which all the elevator doors are closed while the car is running under control of the operation control section.
