One characteristic shared by all modern cities is the need to provide its citizens with an adequate number of parking lots. Although most automated parking lots alert drivers to the number of empty spaces that are available, it can still be quite frustrating to search for a parking space once you enter a large parking lot.

A particular solution provider is using MOXA's Active Ethernet I/O products to implement an automated parking system that makes it easier for drivers to find parking spaces. The solution uses one ioLogik E2210 for each section of the parking lot, and a distance sensor for each parking space. In addition, they also use Click&Go logic, which requires very little learning effort, to implement simple control logic. In effect, a light turns on automatically when the space is empty. When a space is occupied, the light turns off.


The system may sound simple, but it gives drivers a big advantage by making it easy to identify which spaces are empty. As you might imagine, drivers only need to spend a few minutes to locate an empty space
