V.BTTN for StaySafe
Background
The V.BTTN is a simple to use Bluetooth button that can be paired with your Android or iOS
device and used to trigger actions in StaySafe. StaySafe support for the V.BTTN was
introduced in Android version 1.4.0 and iOS 2.4.0 This document outlines the setup and
options available for the V.BTTN button when used with StaySafe.
V.BTTN Setup
The V.BTTN communicates with your Android or iOS device via Bluetooth. In order to setup
StaySafe to use the V.BTTN you must ensure that Bluetooth is turned on your device.
StaySafe will prompt you to turn on Bluetooth if you try to setup with Bluetooth turned off.
To set up your V.BTTN with your StaySafe app, follow the simple steps below. Please note
that to avoid pairing the wrong button, configuration should be carried out away from
other V.BTTNs.
1.
Hold down your button for 10 seconds to turn it on and enter pairing mode.
2.
Go to settings in your StaySafe app and click on the Configure
Buttons option.
3.
Click “I have a V.BTTN” and select the button from the list.
4.
Wait for the button to connect to your device. A beep from the
button will signify a successful connection.
5.
Click to configure your button. Here you can assign app functions
to two actions; single click or hold. We recommend assigning
check-in to single click and panic to hold to avoid false alerts.
6.
You can also choose whether you would like to receive sound and
LED confirmations or enable fall detection (more info below).
7.
The two icons in the top right corner allow you to disconnect or delete a connected
V.BTTN.
Once the V.BTTN is paired with your Android or iOS device, it will remain known to this device
even if Bluetooth is turned off and on again.
Other Buttons
StaySafe also supports Flic button as well as the V.BTTN. However, only one type of
button – V.BTTN or Flic – can be configured at any one time.
