{{Quote|Pulse scanner that gathers data about capital-class alien vessels, intended for use with Thargoid Titans, though it can analyse smaller xeno vessels.|In-Game Description}}

The Pulse Wave Xeno Scanner is a utility [[Outfitting|module]]. It is a modified [[AX Xeno Scanner]] that uses electromagnetic technology found in [[Pulse Wave Analyser|Pulse Wave Analysers]] to identify points of interest on a [[Thargoid Titan]]. <ref>[https://www.elitedangerous.com/news/galnet/materials-needed-titan-research-project GalNet : Materials Needed for Titan Research Project]</ref>

Following the discovery of Thargoid Titans in May 3309, the Pulse Wave Xeno Scanner was released in June 3309.<ref>[https://www.elitedangerous.com/news/galnet/pulse-wave-xeno-scanner-now-available GalNet : Pulse Wave Xeno Scanner Now Available]</ref> In September, the module was upgraded to detect human life signs. <ref>[https://www.elitedangerous.com/news/galnet/aegis-releases-upgraded-xeno-scanner GalNet: Aegis Releases Upgraded Xeno Scanner]</ref>

This module allows pilots to find limpet points, where they can use [[Research Limpet Controller|Research Limpets]] to extract tissue samples from Thargoid Titans. It also identifies sub-surface storage chambers, allowing ships equipped with [[Sub-surface Extraction Missile|extraction missiles]] to release humans held inside these chambers.

== Purchase Locations ==
The Pulse Wave Xeno Scanner is available for purchase at [[Rescue Vessel|rescue megaships]].

== Notes ==

* The Pulse Wave Xeno Scanner is not required to target a Thargoid Titan's heat vents. As a result, ship builds focused on damaging Thargoid Titans do not need to equip this module.
