Wireless Space Count: SENSIT DATACOLLECTOR

1 INTRODUCTION

The Wireless Space Count system facilitates accurate measurement on occupancy of individual parking

spaces in car parks, and on-street parking spaces. This information can be used to guide traffic to free

parking spaces but can also be used for on-street parking enforcement and overstay detection. For on-

street enforcement the number of occupied parking spaces can be compared with the number of

payments realized by the pay station. For overstay detection the system alerts instantly a parking officer

to the presence of nearby overstaying vehicles. Based on this information you can exactly determine

which space to enforce.

1.1 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION SENSIT DATACOLLECTOR

The actual status (occupancy) of the SENSIT is collected by one or more SENSIT DATACOLLECTOR.

The SENSIT DATACOLLECTOR is the interface between the SENSIT and the host system The SENSIT

DATACOLLECTOR transmits status information about the sensors to the host system through RS232 or

Ethernet communication. Over RS232 the SENSIT DATACOLLECTOR communicates via a serial

connection to the host. Over TCP/IP the SENSIT DATACOLLECTOR communicates directly on your

LAN network. The TCP/IP communication allows you to decide on direct communication or to make use

of a database application.

For a parking site you need at least one SENSIT DATACOLLECTOR and a SENSIT per parking bay.

One SENSIT DATACOLLECTOR is required per 100 parking bays. All SENSIT DATACOLLECTOR

must be separated as far as possible from each other, preferably with a 200+ network at every corner of

the site a SENSIT DATACOLLECTOR.

Note: This manual is not intended for the end user, the SENSIT DATACOLLECTOR shall be installed

by a professional. The case is preventing to remove the antenna so that the end user cannot

and shall not detach it from the device.

Wireless Space Count: SENSIT DATACOLLECTOR

3 DATA CONFIGURATION

The Data format of messages from the SENSIT and the SENSIT DATACOLLECTOR are the same

whether TCP/IP or RS232 communication is applied. The SENSIT is default already configured and for

most installations this should be all right. The below mentioned command messages are therefore only

required if you want to change specific settings.

3.1 DATA FORMAT

The data format is fixed:

Baud rate: 115200

Data bits: 8

Parity: None

Stop bits: 1

3.2 COMMAND MESSAGE FORMAT TO THE NODE(S)

Commands messages that are sent to the SENSIT should be sent in the following format:

XXXX0000IIII[DDDD][DDDD]....

XXXX Node ID (FFFF is broadcast)

0000 Message number; always four zeros

IIII Instruction code

DDDD Optional data word 16 bit

The SENSIT DATACOLLECTOR software replaces the 0000 message number with an automatic

increment message number between 0080 and 00FF. When your own interface software is making the

message number it is highly recommended to use the same range.

3.3 DATA MESSAGE FORMAT FROM THE NODE(S)

The data message format from the SENSIT is similar to the command message format, except YYYY

are not four zeros but an internal message number. The node adds an internal message number to a

created event message, in the range from 0000 to 007F.

XXXXYYYYIIII[DDDD][DDDD]....

XXXX Node ID, FFFF is broadcast

YYYY Internal message number

IIII Instruction

DDDD optional data word 16 bit

The four MSB bits of the Instruction word are the (not) acknowledge and type of data flags?

CXXX The data field contains an ASCII string (example command 00CA)

4XXX Data from a node (always)

5XXX Error in instruction

6XXX Unknown instruction

More detailed information about all the commands can be found in the Wireless Space Count Install

Guide.
