You can configure an AutoVu™
Free-Flow system to
manage a multi-tenant parking facility where parking spaces are leased to nearby businesses.
In this scenario, the remainder of the spaces can be used for hourly transient
parking.
The parking lot occupancy for each tenant appears as a separate circle graph on
the dashboard.
The following diagram shows a scenario where two tenants, for example, a medical
clinic and a law firm lease spots in a parking lot and the remainder of the
spots are used for hourly transient parking:
IMPORTANT:If you use the Hotlist and
permit editor to enter vehicle information, the system
completes the Category field for each
row. Do not modify this field as it must match the permit name.
Tip:Name the Security Center permits according to
their use as source or destination permits. This can help
you to avoid assigning the wrong Security Center permits when you link
them in Pay-by-Plate
Sync. If you
assign the wrong permits, you might overwrite your source plate
list.
Configure the Security Center permits
to be used with Pay-by-Plate
Sync.
Pay attention to the instructions on configuring the attributes of
the permit. The permits must either include four attributes
(Category, PlateState, PlateNumber, and
PermitID) or six attributes (Category,
PlateState, PlateNumber, PermitID,
EffectiveDate, and ExpiryDate)
If you include the EffectiveDate, and ExpiryDate
attributes, the fields cannot be empty.
The PermitID field cannot be empty.
In Pay-by-Plate
Sync, select each tenant's
destinationSecurity Center permit and link all of
the tenant's source permits.
In this example of a Grouped permit, a
dynamic parking provider zone and a static permit are linked to the
Combined PermitSecurity Center permit in Pay-by-Plate
Sync:
Create a permit
restriction for the parking lot that includes the destinationSecurity Center permits for all of the
tenants in the parking lot.
IMPORTANT: The AutoVu™
Free-Flow
plugin ignores any time restrictions configured for the permit restriction.
To avoid confusion, configure the time restrictions as follows:
In this step, you associate cameras and a parking rule with the parking zone
and you set the vehicle capacity.
If you need to send a list of vehicles whose
parking sessions have reached a state of Violation to a parking
enforcement patrol vehicle, you can link the parking zone to a violation
hotlist.
In the AutoVu™
Free-Flow plugin, enable
multi-tenant parking and set the parking spots allotted to each tenant.
