The Super-Beacon is improved and in an all-the-way superior version of the Beacon HW v4.9:
- The Super-Beacon has a separate receiving part with a single wide-beam microphone and sharp DSP filters (like Mini-RX, Industrial-RX, or Industrial Super-Beacons have). Thus, it is more sensitive than Beacon HW v4.9; more resistant to external noise, and easier to set up because you don’t have to care about turning on and off ultrasonic sensors to optimize coverage vs. sensitivity
- The Super-Beacon can receive any ultrasonic frequency from the bands: 19kHz, 22kHz, 25kHz, 28kHz, 31kHz, 34kHz, 37kHz, and 45kHz. The filter can be selected in the Dashboard. At the same time, the ultrasonic frequency of Beacon HW v4.9 is HW-defined by ultrasonic sensors and can’t be changed
- The Super-Beacon can receive several ultrasonic frequencies at once. That is used in the Inverse Architecture (IA) and in the Multi-Frequency NIA Architecture (MF NIA). See the architecture comparison
- The Super-Beacon has several-times improved battery lifetime in TX mode as compared with Beacon HW v4.9
- The Super-Beacon can work with regular Beacons HW v4.9 and Mini-RX and Industrial-RX in any combination as a part of a Starter Set or a part of navigation systems. In all cases, the beacons shall use the same radio band
The Super-Beacons will supersede the Beacon HW v4.9, and the latter may be discontinued.
