 ### TextAlert handeling:
-Each consumer stores a map between alertIndex and textIndex. The group starts the task of the index and target and calls setAlertText on the consumer.

+## Hardware TODO
+
+
+### Beacon Base **WIP**
+The third-generation Base is the core of the system and runs the Beacon Base software. It features a PoE network connection and four XLR hardware outputs for connecting Lighthouses.
+[link]()
+
+### Beacon Lighthouse **WIP**
+The Lighthouse is an analog tally light with a 4-pin mini-XLR input, designed to connect to hardware outputs on the Base or a Node. A switch on the back disables the front-facing light for situations where tally should only be visible to the camera operator. Available with 1/4" thread and magnet mounts.
+[link]()
+
+### Beacon Node **WIP**
+The Node is a wired extender. It has a PoE network connection and four hardware outputs. It connects to the Base to expand the number of available outputs.
+[link]()
+
+### Beacon Relay **WIP**
+The Relay is a wireless bridge. It connects to the Base over PoE and sets up the mesh network that Satellites use to communicate, coordinating Satellite discovery.
+[link]()
+
+### Beacon Satellite **WIP**
+The Satellite is a wireless tally light that connects to wifi, or the mesh network set up by the Relay and is discovered automatically by the Base. It includes a small display on the back to show camera information.
+[link]()
+
+### Beacon Satellite Pro **WIP**
+The Satellite Pro is a wireless tally display with a 64×32 pixel screen on the front for showing camera information, a large tally light, and an information display on the back.
+
+### Beacon Display **WIP**
+The Display connects to the network over PoE and offers a 128×64 matrix display. It can be configured to show custom information and is discovered by the Base as a tally device.
