RMS - BOOMGATE MODULE
CS TECHNOLOGIES
Please follow this guide to Setup and Install the BoomGate Module of the RMS system.
You will need to contact the RMS Support Desk for the password to install.
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 to you a list of providers which we currently interface with.
Your BoomGate monitor will show in your system tray as
the icon below.
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.
