Abstract—As car user's increase, parking areas can’t keep 11 Transmission Cam Chain 2 loop
pace with car growth. One solution to reduce this problem is 12 Pallet Iron Plat 50 cm2
to use a rotary parking system. The rotary parking system is 13 Gear Cam Gear 2 pcs
an automated parking system utilizing relatively narrow land

The land transportation commonly used by the with the following specifications [3]:
people is cars. In Indonesia, the number of cars recorded by
KORLANTAS POLRI from 2010 to December 2017 Table 2. Arduino Uno Specification
continues to increase to 5.9 million units [1].
Increase in the number of cars is not proportional Microcontroller ATmega328P

choosing a vehicle parking lot. From the problem, then Input Voltage 7-12V
created a prototype rotary parking system [2]. (recommended)

designed with the following specifications [6]:
A. Arduino IDE Program
 Model parking rotation system is made of 6
pieces of parking shelves that can accommodate Programming is done using the Arduino IDE
6 cars. application, here is the program image for the prototype
 The movement of the rotary parking system rotary parking system shown in Figure 10.
model uses a stepper motor and uses a timming
belt to connect to the rotary parking chain.
 The rotary parking numbering model can be seen
in Figure 7 (b).

The movement of the rotational parking system
model is determined by the position of the 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5
parking rack toward the position of the basic parking rack
on the prototype rotary parking system. The determination
of the setpoint is measured by how many steps by step
movements of the stepper motors to the base parking rack.

C. Work principle
 Time-test results show that the average error rate in
The workings of the tool are as follows:
 Using 5 volt voltage source for Arduino Uno and
14 volt module for stepper motor driver.
 The input of the system comes from some push
button which will command the program from
Arduino to stepper motor driver.
 Each push button has a number corresponding to
the laying of the parking rack in this rotary
parking system
 Push button number 1 is pressed then Arduino
ordered stepper motor to move per step and will
stop on the basic parking shelf as ordered from
Arduino
 Stages if you want to park the car, the first
consumer just push the push button according to
the empty parking rack, and automatically the
empty parking shelves will go down to the basic
shelf and the car can be placed directly on the
parking shelf. And so next if you want to park
the vehicle again.
 The first stage of taking the car is that the
consumer only visually looks at the number of
the parking lot of his car, and then simply pushes
the push button according to the number of car
parking shelves to be picked up.
D. Trial Data
 Error Testing
The test is done by comparing the real time of
the test tool with time calculation based on the delay
that is controlled by Arduino Uno to find the value of
system error. In theory, the error can be calculated by
the formula:
𝑠𝑡𝑒𝑝 𝑥 𝑡𝑖𝑚𝑒 𝑑𝑒𝑙𝑎𝑦
𝐸𝑟𝑟𝑜𝑟 = [ ] 𝑥100%
𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑙 𝑡𝑖𝑚𝑒
 Time Testing
Testing time based on the position of parking
shelves to the basic parking shelf, among others:
P3 14 1.02
P4 9,1 1.05
P5 4,5 1.06
IV. CONCLUSIONS
The conclusions that can be taken in making this
used as a total step-step regulator of stepper motor
rotation and parking rack in rotary parking system
prototype with step division between 240, 479, 720,
479, 240.
the push button experiment 1 is 1.06%, the push
button 2 is 1.05%, the push button 3 is 1.02%, the
push button 4 is 1, 05%, and on the push button 5
of 1.06%. The results of this test indicate that the
time taken to generate the response as planned and
can be applied to the prototype rotary parking
system to achieve the intended position.
