An interrogator[1] or interrogator module[2] was a device that could emit a high-frequency electronic signal to starships. This signal caused the transponder of the targeted starship to broadcast its encoded ID profile,[1] containing identifying information about the ship. Interrogators were frequently found in spaceport control towers and aboard military starships.[2]
