Our project is an automated elevator control system designed using the OpenPLC Editor to ensure safe and efficient passenger transport. The controller manages car and door motor operations, prioritizes and responds to floor requests from both car and hall call buttons, and integrates safety and emergency features for reliable operation. Visual indicators provide real-time status of the elevator car and floor levels, enhancing passenger awareness and system dependability. By combining intelligent control with safety monitoring, our project ensures a secure and effective elevator experience.
