Boon Edam Inc to Preview BoonConnect and BoonSentry Software at ISC WestBoon Edam, Inc., a manufacturer of security entrance solutions in North America, is proud to introduce two fully-integrated software and security enhancements for the Tourlock 180+90 security revolving door, BoonConnect and BoonSentry. Both tools will available for preview and demonstrations in booth #8035 at ISC West in Las Vegas, Nevada, April 10-12, 2013.

BoonConnect
Through an LCD touchscreen built into the endpost of the door, BoonConnect provides a suite of features for the facility manager, the service technician and the everyday user of the Tourlock security revolving door.

  • Configurable Security Modes – Facility Managers can set different security modes to be operated during certain hours of the day or days of the week. For example, the door can be card in/free out during business hours, card in/card out in the evenings, and locked on weekends.

  • Diagnostic Status – Maintenance technicians can quickly check the status of the door’s sensors, door wing alignment and tuning, motor and logic controller through the LCD touchscreen, without having to remove ceiling parts.

  • Self-Diagnostics and Notification – BoonConnect constantly monitors the operations of the door and can send emails to appropriate parties when the door has rotated a certain number of times (time for maintenance) or when sensors or other systems experience a malfunction after a certain number of minutes.

  • User Communication Screens – During normal operations, the LCD touchscreen displays simple, easy-to-understand icons that communicate to users the status of the door and improve traffic flow. For example, waiting for card/credentials, credentials accepted (enter the door), locked, closed for maintenance, and unauthorized entry.

BoonSentry
BoonSentry is an enhanced security upgrade available within the BoonConnect platform. It features an embedded, eye-level video camera system in the door’s endpost that records and stores photographs and videos of after-hour loiterers, and alerts control room security officers in real time.
