Wireless staff panic buttons & duress alarmsOne press. Help knows where to go.
OMNI’s wearable panic button lets staff call for help silently with one touch. The alert reaches responders’ phones and the dashboard with the person’s live location, so help goes straight to them.
Silent, simple and located.
Press the button
Staff wear a small Bluetooth panic button on a lanyard, badge or keyring. One touch sends an alert, silently or with the alert mode you configure.
Responders see where
Sentinel Plus units across the building provide live location, so the alert shows where the person is, not just who pressed it.
Everyone who needs to know, knows
Alerts go out by text, email and the dashboard, and can trigger mass notification, cameras or other systems through integrations.
Duress alerts for every team.
Wearable & silent
Small enough to wear all day. One-touch, silent or configurable alert modes.
Live location
Location comes from the Sentinel Plus units already in your building for air, vape and threat detection.
Asset tags too
The same Bluetooth network tracks tagged equipment with last known location, movement history and geofencing.
Integrates with your response
Mass notification, VMS, access control and webhooks put the alert in front of the right people fast.

Panic button questions
How does a wireless panic button with live location work?

Can the alert be silent?
Yes. The button supports one-touch silent alerts as well as other configurable alert modes.
Who gets the alert?
You choose. Alerts go to designated responders by text, email and the OMNI Cloud dashboard, and can trigger mass notification and other systems through integrations.
Does it help with Alyssa’s Law or hotel panic button rules?
OMNI’s silent panic alerts with location can support plans to meet these requirements. Rules differ by state and city, so review the specific law that applies to you. Our legislation page has a plain-English overview.
Is the panic button sold separately?
A wearable panic button is included with Sentinel Plus, and you can add more for every staff member who needs one.
Can it track equipment too?
Yes. Sentinel Plus supports Bluetooth asset tags with last known location, movement history and geofencing.
