ORION antenna head
The ORION antenna head is
a transceiver that radiates a
1.25Mhz-wide digital spread
spectrum signal to determine
the presence of electronic
components.
When the signal
encounters semi-conductor
junctions (diodes, transistors,
circuit board connections, etc), a
harmonic signal returns to the
receiver, which measures the
strength of the harmonic signal
and distinguishes between
first or third harmonics.
When a stronger second harmonic
signal is present, visual, audio
and haptic feedback alerts on
the ORION notify users that a
junction has been detected. In
this way, the hand-held ORION
900 HX is used to sweep walls,
objects, containers, furniture
and most surfaces to look for
hidden electronics, regardless of
whether they are turned on.
For those looking to equip
themselves for every
situation, ORION HX Deluxe
is available, which has
900Mhz and 2.4Ghz
antenna heads
exchanged by simply
turning a pair of
thumbscrews.
The touchscreen
controller on the ORION handle
automatically recognises the
attached antenna and displays
the corresponding data.
