CenTrak Monitor
The Monitor is an IR (infrared) signaling unit used with IR-enabled tags to provide a method of locating tagged assets. Each Monitor transmits an infrared pulse pattern containing a unique location code. CenTrak’s proprietary IR protocol achieves a marked improvement over conventional IR protocols that are geared towards remote control applications. It provides superior resilience to fluorescent and other common indoor interference sources. Coverage zones are limited by solid physical structures such as walls, however contrary to popular belief, IR does not need line of sight for effective communication. IR signals bouncing effectively from structures and walls flood the entire room including locations that are not in direct line of sight to the Monitor.

CenTrak Virtual Wall Monitor
The Virtual Wall Monitor is used to provide a method of locating tagged assets or people for facilities that require sub-room or bed-level accuracy. Virtual walls are geared to semi-private rooms and bays typically found in ED and OR settings. Unlike room level monitors, virtual wall monitors do not need physical walls to limit the area of coverage.
