The Visonic Wireless Emergency Panic Button enables people to transmit an emergency call from inside their home even if they are unable to get to or are at some distance from their communication unit. It can be used as a panic alarm on a Visonic Amber or PowerMax system, which is ideal for senior citizens or people with physical disabilities. It allows people to answer incoming calls when the telephone is out of reach, when used with a Visonic Amber family system. Additionally, it can be used to activate X-10 devices, such as lights and other home appliances, when used with a Visonic PowerMax family system. An auxiliary sensor can be connected to the device; when the sensor is in an alarm state, it sends an alarm message from its auxiliary channel. It has a large red button that lights for a few seconds when pressed. This makes it visible from most angles and reassures the user that the call has been activated. As a fully supervised device, the panic button is continually monitored. If the battery power becomes too low, the control panel is automatically alerted, enabling timely replacement of batteries to ensure uninterrupted operation. This device is powered by a Lithium Battery 3 Volt (CR-123), included.
