A method of calibrating a beacon 250 for an elevator call system 200 including: determining when a calibrator mobile device 600 is located at a desired distance D1 away from the beacon on a specific landing 125a, the beacon being associated with one or more specific elevator systems 101a at a specific elevator bank 112a on the specific landing; detecting a wireless signal emitted by the beacon using a communication device 640 of the calibrator mobile device when the calibrator mobile device is located at the desired distance; and establishing the desired distance as a selected range of the beacon for locating a passenger device 400 for an elevator call 380 received from the passenger device. The elevator call system is configured to assign future elevator calls received from the passenger mobile device detected to be within the selected range of the beacon to the one or more specific elevator systems at the specific elevator bank on the specific landing.
