And how is this related to lighting?

It isnt, but changing the subject ****s up the
threading with some news readers, not mine.

Yes whichever button I press the lift arrives.

Corse it does, but it will arrive quicker if you press the
correct
one.

In theory in an empty lift,

It has nothing to do with whether the lift is empty or not.

It did to me because I had to get the trolly in ASAP.
Had to get the demo stuff to the lecture room for the start of the
lecture.
Only way to do that was to get in the lift before the students.
So fo rme it didnlt matter whether the lift was going up or down
occuying
the lift meant you decided where it went rather than the students.

But you still achieved nothing by pressing the button that
pointed to where the lift actually was,

Yes I do because the door opens if the
lift is on the floor I;m currently on.

There is no button to press that indicates that the lift is at your
floor and if it was at your floor, the door would be open anyway.

When I came into today the lift was on the ground floor the door was
closed.
It didn't open until I pressed the call lift button, and it doesnlt matter
which one I press UP or DOWN the lift doors still opened.



or by pressing both buttons. It would have got to your floor
earlier if you had pressed the button indicating which direction you
wanted the lift to go once it had arrived at your floor and let you
in.

So you press both buttons, well done.
That way whatever direction the lift is going in it
stops on your floor, then I turf the students out.

But it still goes to where it was going after you turf
the students out so you have achieve nothing by
turfing them out at your floor.

Yes I have I can now get the trolley into the lift.
The trolly was designed to be the maxium size to fit in the lift, it;s not
a sack barrow, it's about 2 meters long and 1 metre high and waisst height
with two lower sheleves.


Its better to let them
get out at the floor they wanted to go to .

But then more students will get in, lifts go up and down you know,
and not all students travel in the same direction at the same time.




and then
have the lift go to your floor and for you to turf
the new lot out.

How do I do that the lift has students in it that have selected the floor
THEY
want to go to, so it will bypass me waiting for the lift.

You really have no idea how lifts work do you. I thought they had them in
australia maybe not in the putback in tin sheds perhaps that;s where
yuo're going wrong, when was the last time you used a lift ?



Fraid so, because that?Ts when the lift need to decide if its
better to stop at your floor when it passes your floor or not.

Yes and I want it to stop at my floor that's why I pressed the buttons
Duh!

Its stupid to have it stop at your floor.

How will I get in it if it doesn't stop at my floor ?


and then keep
going away from the floor you want to go to, stupid.

No it's more stupid to let it go to another floor to get more students,
that will select the floor they want to go to.

This is really like rocket science to you isn't it.
