Sentrax Device Manager

With the Sentrax Device Manager (SDM) application, users can scan for nearby configurable  PINIX beacons, view their battery status and modify the settings. The configuration of beacons is protected by passwords with a four (4) digit user defined PIN.

As an added safety feature, the beacons can only be configured with in a period of 15 minutes after installing the batteries or can be manually triggered into configuration mode by pressing the reset button on the Tag. However, this time duration can be increased through the settings to up to 3 weeks or more.
