Touch & Go – Entrance Control launch their new Gen V controller

As part of their enhancements for the access control module of the Entrance Control Enterprise software solution, Entrance Control has launched their new, fifth generation controller – the Touch.

The Touch is a dedicated intelligent controller that provides the interface between Entrance Control Enterprise and any access control point such as a door, turnstile, or boom gate. The Touch has options for built-in RFID and Bar code readers and also offers integration with biometric readers.

The Touch features full colour display which is used to instruct users how to use the access control point to simplify the entry process. The Touch Screen can run intuitive animated graphics and provide text based instructions for a better user experience. If you feel like you can provide advancing user experiences, and would enjoy making a users experience of a product better overall, then look into a career in ux to help you get started.

The Touch sits on the user’s network and features power over Ethernet (POE) to power itself and a RFID & Bar code reader. The Touch also offers the ability for remote login for easy configuration, diagnostics and ongoing support.

“The Touch is an exciting new development for Entrance Control,” said Michael Bystram, head of access control at Entrance Control. “It enables us to effectively deploy access control at any point in a customer’s facility be it at a turnstile, a door or a boom gate. The colour display intuitively guides, even first time, users through the entry process speeding up throughput, reducing queuing times and providing a better user experience. The power over Ethernet function simplifies deployment and the remote diagnostics option enables our 24/7 support desk to provide faster and better support to our customers.”
