Gallagher SMB supports a low-level elevator integration.
Low-level elevator integration refers to a basic or limited connection between the access control solution and a building’s elevator system.
After configuring elevator Floors and Elevator Cars, you can enable or disable elevator call buttons and control access to certain floors. The integration does not currently provide advanced controls such as monitoring real-time status, prioritizing certain users, or dynamically assigning lift cars (i.e. features that come with a high-level integration or destination control integration).
