Amanda Ripley using the Security Access Tuner.
The AW15[1] Security Access Tuner, also known as a Systems Diagnostic Device,[2] was a handheld diagnostic tool manufactured by Seegson.[3] It worked by tuning in to the correct frequency and entering callback codes, as well as matching frequency fluctuations, could override systems, doors and terminals in a short amount of time.
Description[]
The Halfin AW15 required a data cell to operate — these cells were inserted into a slot on the base of the device and were also coded to allow access to only certain security levels. Yellow cells only permitted the user to hack low-security systems, while orange and red cells allowed access to progressively more secure systems. While it was created for diagnostic use, most people used them for hacking.
History[]
In 2137, Amanda Ripley used a Security Access Tuner to hack many doors and terminals aboard Sevastopol Station. She acquired hers after a female looter dropped it while running away from the Alien.
