Elevate 8 New Features

Print E-mail


Elevate 8 is currently available as a Release Candidate (which means it is a version with potential to be a final product, ready to release unless fatal bugs emerge).  It is compatible with Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7 (32 and 64 bit).

Elevate 8 has a range of additional features based on requests from users and some new ideas of our own! 

For presentation you can 

  • Create a PDF of your Elevate report with a single click
  • Record a video of your simulation to playback in PowerPoint or on the web
  • Select graphs to be plotted in black/white or colour

On the analysis side there are 

  • More design templates based on our traffic studies in actual office buildings
  • Enhancements to the destination control algorithm including an option for destination input on selected floors only
  • Extended facilities for software developers implementing their own dispatchers in Elevate
  • Improved tools to assist modelling of elevator kinematics and energy consumption
  • Improved simulation modelling of double deck elevators removing the restriction of odd to odd and even to even floor traffic only
