Sentinel is the name of the Axalon's automated defense system which proved to be extraordinarily effective. To put it simply, most battles near the Maximal Base ended by someone activating Sentinel. This caused the Maximal device to be highly coveted by the Predacons.
The Sentinel System itself consisted of an extremely powerful energy shield, and the simultaneous activation of every weapon attached to the Axalon. Despite its power, the shield can be disabled under unusually heavy fire.

The Sentinel system was developed by Rhinox. Initially, the system went haywire when Rattrap and Dinobot got into a brawl, but Rattrap was able to shut it down without being killed. A Better Mousetrap
After the Axalon was dragged off a cliff and crashed into the lake below, the Maximals tried to retrieve Sentinel's CPU from the wreckage. Rattrap piloted a submarine into the wreckage and brought the module to the surface. Despite their efforts, the Predacons attacked, and the module wound up in Megatron's clutches. Given the need for the Maximals to focus on defense of the Ark, this forced the Maximals into an almost entirely defensive footing for the rest of the war. Changing of the Guard
However, even Sentinel proved ineffective against the onslaught of the Vok emissary Tigerhawk, who destroyed the Darksyde and Sentinel with it simply by landing. Of course, he was surrounded by a ball of energy moving at an incredibly high speed, so that probably helped. Other Victories
