Abstract
An elevator system includes at least one elevator car, and an elevator drive system configured to drive the elevator car in a first direction and a second opposing direction based on at least one drive command signal. The elevator system further includes an electronic elevator control module that determines a first servicing route and a second servicing route. The first servicing route services a first floor located along the first direction in response to at least one first call request. The second servicing route overrides the first servicing route so as to dynamically service at least one second floor located along the second direction based on a comparison between at least one parameter of the at least one elevator car and at least one interrupt criteria.
