TagMaster RFID Installed at Queen City Square Tower


GuardLink provides AVI and parking revenue for an 11-level parking garage in Ohio.




TACOMA, Wa. | January 22, 2012 — TagMaster North America, Inc., the leading provider of long-range and high-performance Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) systems for Automatic Vehicle Identification (AVI) was installed by GuardLink for hands-free parking access to Queen City Square Tower, the tallest building in Cincinnati, Ohio.

With four entrance/exit plazas and 2,200 parking spaces, TagMaster’s AVI enables regular parkers to enter and exit the garage hands-free without the need to insert an access card or code, or even lower their vehicle window. This eliminates delays caused by congestion at this premier location.

With the installation of SKIDATA Pay on Foot machines and TagMaster AVI, GuardLink converted this high profile building into a completely unmanned revenue and access control system while still fulfilling the client’s wishes to keep the existing intercom and HID card reader system.

Outdated equipment was removed and replaced by
SKIDATA PARCS, provided by GuardLink/ParkLink Systems, Inc. and integrated easily with 16 of TagMaster’s LR-6 PRO long-range RFID readers with little to no down time. After installation, 2500 TagMaster MarkTag MeM ID-Tags were distributed to regular parkers made up of business employees and VIPS as well as 50 MarkTag Classic ID-Tags on Lanyards for the use of Valet for garage entry.

“The ultimate goal of GuardLink/ParkLink Systems Inc. was to get this entire complex installed and operational in the absolute minimum amount of time and the least possible disruption for the owner and their customers,” said Bob Long, Sales Account Manager at GuardLink. “Thanks to TagMaster NA and SKIDATA this was accomplished.”

Using the SKIDATA open architecture software, GuardLink/ParkLink Systems, Inc. seamlessly integrated the TagMaster AVI system with the existing HID cards, Proximity readers, and Viking intercoms at this Class A office building in downtown Cincinnati.
