Parking guidance for facility operating teams

Connected cameras detect occupied bays and send records to shared cloud software. Facility teams review use and equipment status, while colour indicators and selected signs guide drivers toward available spaces.

About Parking guidance for facility operating teams

Facility teams need bay occupancy records and clear information for drivers choosing where to park. Park Assist (TKH) combines camera sensors, colour indicators, wayfinding signs and cloud software for this work. The installation is engineered around the facility layout and its selected driver information channels.

M5 sensors mounted above driving lanes use one or two cameras to monitor suitable bays. Each device detects vehicle occupancy locally and provides integrated licence-plate recognition. Ethernet cabling and selected power equipment connect the sensors and signs with the backend. INX, the cloud management platform, presents current and historical records through dashboards, reports and facility maps.

Drivers use sensor colours and selected signs to identify bay types and available areas. Operators review occupancy, dwell time and turnover, assess device status and configure selected signage or sensor settings. Reports compare activity across chosen periods, regions or bays. Suitable API integrations share selected records with revenue systems and other applications. The connected workflow brings measured bay activity into driver guidance and the team's continuing facility review.

Questions and answers

How many bays can a suitably placed dual-camera M5 unit monitor?

It can monitor up to six bays, typically three on each side of the driving lane, depending on the engineered placement.

Which cabling carries records and power in the selected M5 guidance installation?

The installation uses CAT6 Ethernet cabling with suitable power cabinets and selected passive Power over Ethernet injectors.

What can an M5 unit continue doing during a backend connection interruption?

It can continue local occupancy detection, update its LED indicator and store selected records for transfer when the connection returns.

Which operating measures can staff compare in the INX facility dashboards?

Selected views include occupancy, dwell, turnover, vehicle visits and historical comparisons across the chosen bays or regions.
