The master computer is the global centre in an integrated system with several locally or globally distributed car park facilities. It is provided with all central functions for the operative and administrative management of these facilities.
Practice already created very different constellations of integrated systems. The main differences are:

The distance between the master computer and the cell computer:

• All cell computers, i.e. all facilities, are located in the vicinity of the master computer and are permanently connected by means of LAN (Local Area Network).
• All cell computers, i.e. all facilities, are located far away from, may be globally distributed, and are connected by means of WAN (Wide Area Network) dial-in connections in public networks.
• Some of the cell computers are connected with the master computer by means of LAN, the remaining cell computers are connected via WAN.

Note: In normal case, WAN connections are more expensive because every connection will be invoiced by the net provider. For that reason, the master computer offers a cost optimization by the possibility to send the data in bundles. The transmission delay can be configured according to the priority and the use of the data. Control interventions from the master level and important events will always be transmitted immediately.
