What's the purpose of the panic button and how does it work?

The Panic button is good for testing the system by sounding the alarm(s) until you hit the Disarm button or put in your code on the control unit. Other than that its hard to say. The system is designed to be all with in the house to include the siren(s). I have the extra 350db sirens added to create the most noise throughout the house. Even if the neighbors don't hear your system no one wants to be inside the house with the earsplitting noise. Panic alarms are designed for external systems where the alarms are monitored at a central station. It can still be of help with your system to alert the family for something other sensors did not pick up and you do not care to run to a sensor to set off the alarms. Too if you are outside get hurt and need fast help i.e. fall off the roof the family will soon find you. You could mount some sirens outside the house and hope your neighbors are helpful rather than annoyed (do check local laws). Should you have young children who play out front, give one the remote which may well keep them from going for a ride while you take that burning pie from the oven. Being a private system there was no need for the panic button but with some thought it can be used in many ways to save life and limb.

The panic button is much like the one on your key fob for your car, EXCEPT to turn it off (alarm) you must enter your security code on the master unit. It will not shut off using the remote. If you saw someone around your shed you can push the panic button and the alarm will go off in the shed and at the master unit in the house. Hopefully the perp runs away, the alarm is very loud.

Use the panic button if you have an intruder, or for some reason you have fear, & the alarm will ring.

You simply push the panic button and the alarm sounds. I guess it is for if you are in your house and are having an emergency or being invaded then maybe the neighbors will hear and come to your rescue or maybe just the noise will scare the intrudes off? Kinda stupid I think, probably will never use the panic button.

Hi, I got this for my parents and they love it. It's one button for away and four # s to enter to disarm. ( you pick the #s) )You can put it on silent and it will call up to two phone #s if the first person doesn't pick up. And you can do silent and call at the same time.

No, it does not have a panic button. Yank the chain out of the device to activate and plug it back in to stop it.

It has the tone button to give a warning and the button below it delivers the shock.It works great. Usually I only have to show the remote to my dog and he stops the bad behavior.

When you push the button. I prefer it this way, and it works wonderful.you will find that you don't have to push the button as often as you might think. I have also read on blogs that some of the ones that are set automatically have had malfunctions, this way I know exactly is being done to my little dog. Also, I haven't had to use the shock, I only use the vibrate and it has done the job!

Instant feedback would make it so it only takes 30 seconds or so to "bust" the code, making the security aspect of having a code useless. That is why you must push all 4 digits before it triggers a failed code indication.

You can set them to blow in different increments, if I remember correctly, 1 min to non stop till the user disarms, but if its going off only the display would let you know a different sensor was triggered......

You need to hold the button. Seems not quite convenient, but I think much safer.

Yes. You can program a duress pin and it also has a panic button on the keypad

I am not sure why there is a mention of the alarming function in the description. To me the alarm is the doorbell, which triggers the function of the camera taking a picture.

No, the game is that music plays for a random length of time, when the music stops, you press the button. Last one to press it receives a shock that can be changed to 4 levels of intensity. There is a secondary setting that makes it so everyone but the first person to press the button receives a shock. That's about all the functionality there is.

The button on the front can be used as an SOS button, which will alert via text and/or email when pushed. It can also be used as an instant GeoFence creation button, so if the device goes out of the 100' area when enabled the device will alert via text or email. It is small enough to be worn or placed in a commonly used bag to track where the person is located, etc.

I suppose its based on your controller. In my case, you can set conditions and events. So if a condition is met, the switch can be triggered and then immediately be un-triggered making it "momentary". It is not as fast as a button press, but it is pretty quick (5 seconds or less).

There is a small button at the top or bottom of the device. This button is used to secure the garage door from opening by some one Without your permission or when you go to vacation to make sure on one has access to get to your home.

Yes, it does that to save battery. Once you press a button give a second then it will reactivate.

Pressing and holding ARM and DISARM together for about 2 secs triggered the loud siren alarm, (equivalent to panic button on car keys or other alarm systems), but one major disadvantage is that remote does not send radio signals, i.e you have to point the remote at the alarm - which may not be always practical in situations where you want this. Suppose the alarm is in downstairs living room, you are in upstairs bedroom and you sense someone breaking in, you will have to get down, go close to the alarm, point at it and press both buttons with two fingers - think if that would be practical for you.

There is only four buttons so you quickly become used to the pattern of buttons you need to press. I have tested this in the middle of the night, it took seconds to open the safe. Very good safe, there is a LED light that shines once it opens. Pick a 3 or 4 digit code and you will be good.
