  2. upon reaching the floor, wait until at a full stop before opening doors
  3. doors should remain open for 15 seconds before closing if no activity occurs. Activity includes anybody crossing the sensor line between the doors, or anyone pressing the open doors/closed doors buttons.
    • If the sensor is activated, the door should remain open before closing for 10 seconds from the last time the sensor was activated.
    • If the open door button is pressed the doors should remain open before closing for 10 seconds after the last time the button was pushed.
    • If the closed door button is pushed the doors should close unless interrupted by either the sensor being activated or the open door button being closed.
  4. once the doors have closed after collecting passengers, the elevator should proceed to the floor corresponding to the button that was pressed, stopping in order of the closest floors on its way in a certain direction.
    • if the elevator is on its way up it should only stop at floors along the way that have pressed the up button. Similarly it should only stop on its way down at floors that have pressed the down button.
    • once it has reached the topmost of the floors corresponding to the buttons that had been pressed, the elevator should then go to the floors that it might have passed on its way before.
  5. If the no buttons have been pressed for 15 minutes, the elevator should return to the ground floor until a button is pressed.
