=============================

## What is Sentinel System Control?
The Sentinel System Control process is installed with the drivers of the MadCatz S.T.R.I.K.E.7 keyboard.

If you go to Control Panel/Programs and Features, you will see the software programs called Sentinel and Smart Technology Programming Software listed. Here is what they do:

- Sentinel controls and monitors the two-way communication between the S.T.R.I.K.E hardware and your PC. Sentinel consists of three software processes that run on your PC.
- SentinelSystemControl keeps track of time/date and volume data and handles any adjustments you might make.
