- As a highly capable device, the Beta 5 was able to make analytical decisions due to its extremely advanced artificial intelligence. This artificial intelligence was supplemented with a snobbish, feminine personality. It is unknown if the Beta 5's snobbish behavior was unique to this model, or a trait common to all Beta 5 units, if indeed other units indeed existed, much like case of the Federation's EMH Mark I. The Beta 5 computer was also linked to a transporter chamber, located in an apparent walk-in vault, which could transport individuals simply by passing through the entrance-way.

(TOS novel: The Rise and Fall of Khan Noonien Singh, Volume 1) The Beta 5 was destroyed by Khan Noonien Singh on November 9, 1989. Following its destruction, the Beta 6 computer was installed as a replacement. (TOS novels: The Rise and Fall of Khan Noonien Singh, Volume 1, The Rise and Fall of Khan Noonien Singh, Volume 2)
- As a highly capable device, the Beta 5 was able to make analytical decisions due to its extremely advanced artificial intelligence. This artificial intelligence was supplemented with a snobbish, feminine personality. It is unknown if the Beta 5's snobbish behavior was unique to this model, or a trait common to all Beta 5 units, if indeed other units indeed existed, much like case of the Federation's EMH Mark I. The Beta 5 contained a vast database of knowledge on other planets and the history of Earth. It had the ability to check news broadcasts from across the globe, as well as intercept and decode government messages thanks to its exceiver circuits. The Beta 5 computer was also linked to a transporter chamber, located in an apparent walk-in vault, which could transport individuals simply by passing through the entrance-way. The Beta 5 also contained a materialization niche on the right-hand side of its console that could be used for such purposes as producing false identification.
