Three Operation modes:

Deployment Mode – Provides a tool for quick deployment of Flexnet Unattended Ground Sensors (UGS). Using Deployment Mode the operator can optimize detection performance for all sensors, by reviewing information such as radio link quality and detection range information. User can configure sensors and cameras during deployment, and any sensor settings made via the Flexnet PDA are automatically reflected in the base station. This mode also enables localization of the deployed sensors. The built-in GPS and compass will guide the operator to the selected sensor.

Base Mode – The Flexnet PDA acts as a lightweight and portable base station when a smaller network is deployed and the use for a stationary base station is not required. In this mode no other base station is required for operation. The Flexnet PDA allows full configuration and operation of Flexnet. Using Base Mode, the operator can receive and review alarms, view images and videos.

Mobile Base Mode – In this mode information from the main base station is retrieved by the PDA, a useful feature for sharing the operational picture.
