With the Sentrax Device Manager (SDM) Application user can scan for nearby configurable PINIX beacons, view their battery status and modify the settings. The configuration of beacons is a password protected with a four (4) digit user settable PIN. s an added safety feature, the beacons can only be configured within 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 forever. |
