Sentrax Device Manager

The Sentrax Device Manager (SDM) app allows you to manage PINIX beacons. You can discover nearby beacons, check their battery levels, and view their current
settings, and modify them with a protected 4-digit settable PIN.

advanced settings, the configuration window can be extended to up to three
weeks
