3. Range and Connectivity

The system offers a significant transmission range and global connectivity:

  • Transmission Range: The SOS buttons can transmit signals to the receiver unit up to 150 meters (492 feet) in open areas. Within a typical home environment, the range is approximately 20m (66ft) for direct line of sight, 50m (160ft) through one wall, and 70m (230ft) through multiple walls.
  • Wi-Fi Connectivity: The receiver connects to your home's 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network. As long as the receiver is within Wi-Fi range, the Tuya APP can receive signals anywhere in the world where your smartphone has internet access.

Maintenance

1. Battery Replacement

The SOS buttons (wristband and pendant) use CR2032 coin cell batteries. The main receiver unit uses a CR2 battery. When the low battery alert is triggered (LED indicator on receiver, app notification), replace the battery promptly to ensure continuous operation. Refer to Figure 2 for battery type and location in the SOS button.

  • For SOS Buttons: Use a small screwdriver or coin to open the battery compartment, remove the old CR2032 battery, and insert a new one with the positive (+) side facing up.
  • For Receiver Unit: Locate the battery compartment, remove the old CR2 battery, and insert a new one according to the polarity markings.

2. Cleaning and Care

To maintain the performance and longevity of your device:

  • Wipe the devices with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
  • Keep the devices away from excessive moisture, direct sunlight, and extreme temperatures.
  • The SOS buttons are IP55 waterproof, meaning they are protected against dust and low-pressure water jets. However, they are not designed for submersion.
