Abstract

In order to simplify the troubleshooting in a cableway during operation of the cableway, a unique car identification is assigned to each car, with the car identification of each car being known by the cableway control system. At least one function monitoring unit transmits malfunctions triggered by cars during the operation of the cableway to the cableway control system in a function status message FSi. The cableway control system assigns a malfunction that was received to the triggering car and the malfunctions together with the car identification of the triggering car are stored and evaluated in the cableway control system.
