|
| What is the RMS CSTech Interface Module?
|
| The BoomGate Module works seamlessly with RMS to record the entry and exit of all cars into and out of your property.
|
|
|
| The BoomGate Module is designed to work in conjunction with third party software; this software is to be purchased separately to the RMS software. Our Sales staff will make available a list of providers which we currently interface with.
|
|
|
| Your BoomGate monitor will show in your system tray.
|
|
|
| The BoomGate monitor/s act as an interface between the computer and the BoomGate that will show you exactly what is happening at the gate. You will see all of the accesses and exits at each gate within the monitor/s.
|
|
|
| The monitor/s record movement at the gates so that you can see from RMS who is in and out.
|
