Operating principle
Button is a wireless panic button that, when pressed, transmits an alarm
to users, as well as to the security company’s CMS. In Control mode, Button
allows you to control Ajax automation devices with a short or long press of a
button.
In panic mode, the Button can act as a panic button and signal about a threat,
or inform about an intrusion, as well as a fire, gas, or medical alarm. You can
choose the type of alarm in the button settings. The text of alarm
notifications depends on the selected type, as well as the event codes
transmitted to the central monitoring station of the security company (CMS).
You can bind the action of an automation device (Relay, Wa°Switch or
Socket) to a button press in the Button settings — Scenarios menu.
The Button is equipped with protection against the accidental press and
transmits alarms at a distance of up to 1,300 m from the hub. Please be aware
that the presence of any obstructions that impede the signal (for example,
walls or floors) will reduce this distance.
Button is easy to carry around. You can always keep it on a wrist or a
necklace.
When connecting Button via ReX, note that Button does not automatically
switch between the radio networks of the radio signal extender and the hub.
You can assign the Button to another hub or ReX manually in the app.
Connecting the button to the Ajax security system
Prior to initiating the connection
- Follow the hub instructions to install the Ajax application. Create an account, add a hub to the app, and create at least one room.
- Enter the Ajax app.
- Activate the hub and check your internet connection.
- Ensure that the hub is not in armed mode and is not being updated by checking its status in the app.

In order to connect a Button
- Click on Add Device in the Ajax app.
- Name the device, scan its QR code (located on the package) or enter it manually, and select a room and a group (if group mode is enabled).
- Click Add and the countdown will begin.

The Button only works with one hub. When connected to a new hub, the button
Button stops transmitting commands to the old hub. Note that after being
added to the new hub, the Button is not automatically removed from the device
list of the old hub. This must be done manually through the Ajax application.
