Hi traustie,
Beacons are used to track accurate client location and push notifications. This beacons are deployed with WIFI and managed by meridian cloud server.
Meridina is used to create mobile Apps and manage the beacons.
location beacon provide blue dot line in your App which shows your exact location and proximity beacon used to push notifications to mobile user.
since you want to manage/monitor your devices, you could use Airwave server which is montioring/managing tool, where you could see all your client and RFtags on Airwave VisualRF floor plan. we could set tag alert in Airwave, If any tag does not respond to Airwave for an interval it will trigger an alert.
screen shot shows list of supported tags in Airwave

Pavan
