Overtime rule configuration tabs

In the Properties tab, you can configure the parking regulations enforced by this overtime rule.

• Color:

  Assign a color to the overtime rule. When you select the overtime rule in Genetec Patroller™, the plate reads on the map, and the hit screen, are displayed in this color.
• Vehicle parking position:

  This setting tells the Genetec Patroller™ which set of calibrated parameters to use for the optimal reading of wheel images, based on the parking position of the vehicles: Parallel or Angled (45-degree).
• Long term overtime:

  Use this option for long term parking, where vehicles can park in the same spot for over 24 hours. When Long term overtime is selected, the parking time limit is specified in days (2 to 5 days).

  Type of restricted parking area that applies to the time limit:

  • Same position.:

    A vehicle is parked overtime if it parks in the same spot beyond the time limit specified.

In the Zones tab, you can configure the parking area where this overtime rule must be enforced. The Parking lot tab displays a map, on which you can add a parking lot, define the number of spaces in the lot, and then draw a polygon on top of the map to represent the physical parking lot. The number of spaces in the lot is used to calculate the percentage of parking occupancy in that area. For more information on how this information is being used in the Zone occupancy report, see the Security Center User Guide.
