4. Set up Airfob Portal (2) : Add elevators from Elevator Management > Registered Elevators menu, and specify each floor and the relay number to which the module is connected.
5. Set up Airfob Portal (3) : [Optional] Create floor levels for each user and floor in Access Management > Floor Levels. (Read the Floor Levels guide)
6. Set up Airfob Portal (4) : [Optional] When modifying an existing user's information or registering a new user, assign the floor level.
How to Add Elevator
If there is a door associated with that Airfob device in the Door Management menu, you will not be able to add it as an elevator device.
When registering a device via the Airfob Pro app, disable the toggle to not create doors while registering the device. If a door has been created, delete the door associated with the device from the Registered Door menu.

(If you enter 3, the floor button of the elevator must be pressed within 3 seconds after authenticating the mobile card.)
4. In the Floor Configuration area, select and enter as below.
Number of floors: Enter the number of floors of the elevator connected to the elevator module, and click the Apply button.Floor name: Enter the name or number of floors. (The 'Floor number' is automatically entered according to the number of floors added.)Relay number: Select the relay number to which the floor is connected to the elevator module.Schedule: The schedule on which the floor button will be activated. By default, it is always on. If you want to specify a schedule for the floor button to work, click the grey toggle to switch to green and select a schedule.
5. When all entries are complete, click the Save button.
6. You can see the device and module information in the table.
One Elevator Module can be connected to 12 floors of relays. (For example, for a 15 floors building, two Elevator Modules should be installed).
One Airfob device can be connected to 12 Elevator Modules. In total, 144 floors can be controlled by Airfob and elevator modules.
Elevator Floor Schedules & Floor Levels
Elevator Floor Schedule
The Elevator floor schedule means the operating schedule of an elevator's floor buttons. If you apply a schedule in the Elevator Floor settings, it will be automatically reflected for all users. If you don't select a special schedule, the floor button will be active always. (The schedule to be selected must be created in advance in the Access Management > Schedules menu).
Floor levels
A floor level is one of the access levels that can be granted to a user, and can be created in the Access Management > Floor Levels menu. You can assign a floor level when you edit an existing registered user's information or add a new user. If you don't assign a floor level, the elevator floor schedule is automatically applied.
