The group of sensor modules (31) correspond to an elevator system of the plurality of types of elevator systems such that the group of sensor modules (31) provide sensor signals to the elevator system in response to said encoded medium (28). The group of apertures have a subgroup of apertures for receiving the group of sensor modules corresponding to the elevator system. The group of apertures is configured for receiving other groups of sensor modules such that the elevator position apparatus is configured for each of the plurality of types of elevator systems. <IMAGE>
