# Adding elevators

## Setting up elevator relays

1. Go to **Site setup** and select the relevant site
2. Click on **Edit map**
3. Drag an **Elevator door** to where the elevator opens up onto the floor
4. Select an existing elevator to add the door to or create and name a new one. If there are no elevators on your site, a new one will be automatically created
5. Go to each floor that the elevator goes to and repeat steps 3-4
6. To configure your elevator, click on any of the elevator doors then go to the **Hardware** tab and select **Link to Hub**
7. Select the Hub and channel the elevator Reader will be connected to
8. Select which output each floor button is wired to on the Hub

{% hint style="info" %}
If a floor button is not wired to the Hub, that floor will not be access controlled and anyone using the elevator will be able to access the floor
{% endhint %}

9. Go to the **Behavior** tab, click **Edit** and configure:
   1. How long the floor buttons should be active when a valid pass has been presented
   2. Reader bluetooth sensitivity
   3. Reader light brightness
   4. Whether the Reader sounds should be turned on or off&#x20;

{% hint style="info" %}
If a user has access to a room in which the elevator opens, they will also have access to that floor via the elevator
