The TapMate™ Smart System
View the Smart System Presentation (PDF)
Parker Technologies is introducing the next generation of monitoring draft beer by developing a fully automated system.
Features
- POS computer integration.
- Real-time monitoring.
- Live shrinkage reports/graphs comparing beers poured against beers sold.
- No cutting of beer lines.
- Easy installation.
- Uses the same patented technology of infrared light detection featured in TapMate standalone units to ensure that foaming is never a problem.
The Smart System comes complete with easy-to-install software. Each Smart System consule contains 4 meters and additional consules can be purchased separately. This allows you to add more beers to your system by simply connecting multiple 4-pack consules together using a standard phone line. Smart System 4-packs can be daisy-chained together up to a maximum of thirty two 4-pack consule units running simultaneously (that's 128 kegs!).
The beauty of the TapMate Smart System is that it allows owners to have real time information about their beer pours along with complete inventory control, all without having to be present. Owner's can quickly see when beers poured have not been charged for at the point of sale. The graphs can be shown for any beer or all beers for any desired time frame - quarterly, monthly, weekly, daily and even hourly to pinpoint exactly where the problem is. It also detects and records line cleanings. The Smart System never sleeps- beer pours are recorded 24 hours a day, allowing owners to detect after-hours employee drinking.
Do you have custom needs specific to your business? Parker Technologies' can quote a custom programming package suited to your individual needs.
