Specification RedStorm™ 2.1 Parking Guidance System April 2018 General Introduction This document provides the general specification, description and functional requirements for the RedStorm™ 2.1 Parking Guidance System. Description of the System The RedStorm 2.1 Parking Guidance System is a vehicle counting system that runs on its own multi-bus 485 network. It is TCP/IP enabled and can be connected to the facility network with Signal-Tech’s Sign Control and Reporting Software. It can function as a global count or level-by-level count system, and is scalable and reconfigurable in the field. For expanded functionality, the RedStorm 2.1 System can be integrated with both RedStorm Sign Control and Reporting Software and Smart Signs. The system components include: Signal-Tech Overhead Sensors for vehicle detection DZ Counters (differential counter) for count collection Space Available LED signs for displaying the number of available parking spaces to motorists SuperMaster Controller for system control Optional RedStorm Sign Control and Reporting Software for collecting, monitoring, reporting and sharing parking data, and Smart Signs for directional traffic control. Description of Operation RedStorm System can operate as a stand-alone system without software (no PC required); it can be connected to the facility network with the RedStorm Sign Control and Reporting Software; or integrated with Signal-Tech Smart Signs and the RedStorm Sign Control and Reporting Software. The System utilizes infrared sensing technology as the standard approach to vehicle detection. It can also interface with other sensing technologies that provide a dry contact relay, such as anti-tailgating inductance loops or gate operation (both supplied by others).
