Push Button

Connect your Tabs system to the rest of your smart home. Use the two buttons to send custom messages to family members, or use IFTTT to create custom actions between Tabs and other smart devices or services.

What’s in the Box

Messages

By pressing either button on the device, a preset message will be sent to the app. The message will alert the app user and will be displayed on the device’s timeline in the app.

Customizing Messages
Messages can be set for each button by going to the Control tab, selecting a push button, and then choosing Messages. Sending a message could take several minutes.

Status Lights

Button Press
After the button is pressed, the green LED will quickly flash. Once the message is sent, the LED will light up again.

Low Battery
The red LED will flash once per minute when low battery is detected.

Charging

The current battery level of your devices can be viewed within the Tabs app. The app will automatically alert you when a device’s battery level is low.

To charge your push button, locate its battery tab (on right). Lift up the tab, and connect the smaller side of the provided USB-C to A cable. Connect the larger side to the USB port on the back of your Tabs Hub, to your computer, or to your phone’s USB wall adapter. The green light will be solid while charging and fade on and off when charging is complete.

• Do not remove a battery from its original packaging until required for use.
• Do not subject batteries to mechanical shock.
• In the event of a battery leaking, do not allow the liquid to come in contact with skin or eyes. If contact has been made, wash the affected area with copious amounts of water, and seek medical advice.

Notices

1. Avoid exposing your sensors or batteries to very cold or very hot temperatures. Low or high temperature conditions may temporarily shorten the battery life or cause the sensors to temporarily stop working.
2. Take care in setting up the Hub and other hardware. Follow all installation instructions in the User Guide. Failure to do so may result in injury.
3. Do not install hardware equipment while standing in water or with wet hands. Failure to do so can result in electric shock or death. Use caution when setting up all electronic equipment.
4. When charging the sensors, do not handle the sensors with wet hands. Failure to observe this precaution could result in electric shock.
5. Do not use the Tabs application while driving or in other situations where distractions could be hazardous. Always be aware of your surroundings when using the Wristband Locator or other sensors.
6. The Wristband Locator may cause skin irritation. Prolonged contact may contribute to skin irritation or allergies in some users. To reduce irritation, follow four simple wear and care tips: (1) Keep it clean; (2) Keep it dry; (3) Don’t wear it too tight; and (4) Give your wrist a rest by removing the band for an hour after extended wear.
