How are people who move from location to location identified if they pressed a panic button?
With Lynx key and ZFP’s, the simplest solution is to prompt for their location when they send the alarm. This switch may be set when you create the shortcut. If off, the alarm is ‘instant’, with no prompting. With Lynx key, this behavior is controlled by a switch setting in the LynxKey control panel. In the API, you just add the &Verify=Yes switch. I have set that switch below. There are going to be certain circumstances when all you need to know is [WHO] sent the alarm to send people to the right place. Generally speaking, though, you don’t care who sent an alarm, but you do want to know where to send help. Also, you can always pre-specify in the message text where to send help. You can add multiple locations in multiple buttons and re-use the same alarm channel as in my example above (both are alarm 7). Sometimes the machine doesn’t move or is fixed in place, such as for a lobby computer, which makes this discussion irrelevant. LynxPro hardwired holdup buttons plugged into a USB port
