Devices for many situations

Even though the process of driving in and parking then collecting the car and driving out might appear to standard, from a technological and organisational point of view the entrys and exits of parking management facilities can vary considerably, depending on actual conditions and operating structures – whether in terms of geographical, constructional, operative, legal or other circumstances. As a market and innovation leader in the parking sector, Scheidt & Bachmann offers highly progressive entervo technology so as to be able to handle every scenario to meet all needs and ensure long-term feasibility.

Depending on system technology, the entrys and exit devices of the PGL series are fitted with the relevant functional components. These perform functions such as issuing tickets with bar codes or magnetic stripes or else ChipCoins which can be reused at will, recording parking data on these such as time stamp, fee etc., reading, validating and collecting the medium. According to the design of the facility, entervo components are also capable of performing dual functions. For example, the magnetic stripe terminal can also be used to process credit cards, debit cards, money cards or customer cards. In order to be able to process noncontact access media for long-term parking, control devices are fitted with the relevant RFID systems.

In cases where operating concepts, local custom or regulations require, entervo devices can also enable short-term parkers to pay their fee directly in the exit lane. In some countries it is common for the guest to be able to pay for a parking ticket at a manned cashier terminal – either solely or optionally. Here the components for manual handling of payment transactions are fully available to the check-out assistant but the operator still retains complete audit-proof control of all actions. Any fraud attempts on the part of check-out personnel can be conclusively exposed. As an additional payment option in the exit lane, Scheidt & Bachmann offers an exit device with integrated acceptance of credit cards, debit cards and small change. So-called “lost ticket” procedures – at both fixed and variable rates – can also be handled directly at the exit with the customer: here the customer makes contact with personnel by means of an intercom connection integrated in the control device.

Instead of the entrys and exit devices, other technologies can also be used which initiate the opening of a barrier or roller shutter. Control solutions are thus available for every system type – whether online or offline. Generally speaking, parking facilities are not used solely by cars but by buses and lorries, too. Scheidt & Bachmann also offers devices with special dimensions for convenient use by this target group, too.
