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.
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. The Pulse Wave Xeno Scanner also retains all the capabilities of the AX Xeno Scanner; it can passively scan and identify Thargoid [[Thargoid Interceptor|Interceptors]], [[Thargoid Scout|Scouts]] and [[Thargoid Hunter|Hunters]], and can perform an active scan to analyse these vessels' internal modules.

* The Pulse Wave Xeno Scanner has two functions in the ship's fire groups: a pulse wave scan on Thargoid Titans, and an active scanner for smaller Thargoid vessels.
* 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.
