Admin Menu
The Admin Menu is used for installations, management of devices, and advanced options. Each menu icon is explained below and
overleaf:
Qwerty Keypad
A unique feature of the Buzzz is the requirement to enter a PIN, ensuring that unauthorised users cannot gain access to critical
settings. To access the Admin Menu, enter the correct PIN followed by Ent. A stylus should be used to ensure precise input.
The default PIN is 1234, this can be changed within the Admin Menu. Abbreviations for some buttons are:
●ESC - Escape
●Ent - Enter
●Sp - Space
●Bs - Backspace
Walk Test
When using the Buzzz in a larger property, it is essential that a range test is performed to ensure full coverage.
When a device is activated in Walk Test, the Buzzz will emit a sound and the display will list the following information:
●ID of the activated device.
●Battery status.
●Unique hexadecimal identity.
●Signal strength (Max 5, Min 0)
●Wider range signal strength
The Reset button will clear previous tests from the screen.
If the result of the range test proves that the property is too large for the Buzzz, we recommend using our Orion Range Extender to
boost the range of all devices. Also, all the devices in our new product range have extended range which will ensure optimal coverage.
Caution: Please be aware that a real alert cannot be received when the Buzzz is in Walk Test, and there is no timeout function. To exit
Walk Test, press the back arrow. Also, walk tests do not show in the History Log.
New Device
The Buzzz can store up to 150 devices, with each one assigned to a unique name and location. The registering process is very intuitive
and guides the user through each step. Before starting, ensure the device you would like to register is prepared to transmit as it has to
be activated within 12 seconds at stage 6 below:
1. Enter Name (Max 15 characters)
2. Enter Location (Max 15 characters)
3. Day Mode On/Off (see page 6)
4. Type of Device. This option is useful if a device’s usual purpose doesn’t suit the application in which it is being used (i.e. a PIR
positioned beside a bed can be named a ‘Bed Sensor’ instead). Use the arrows to scroll through the list then tap the required
description.
5. Summary, press OK to register device or the back arrow to return to the main menu.
6. Activate Device (activate device within 12 seconds)

Options Menu
The Options Menu allows adjustments to the more advanced options within the Buzzz. Each menu icon is explained
below:
Day Mode Settings
The Day Mode option allows the Buzzz to disregard certain alerts within a programmed time window. To clarify, Day Mode
is the period when timed devices will NOT activate an alert. Multiple devices can use Day Mode but there is only one
programmable timed period.
●Day Start. Set the Hours and Minutes within this option (the device will stop alerting at this time).
●Day On/Off. This has to be switched On if using Day Mode.
●Day End. Set the Hours and Minutes within this option (the device will start alerting at this time).
Note: Both the above settings and the New Device - Day Mode option (page 5) have to be enabled for a sensor to work
with day mode.
Screen Delay
This is the time period before the screen goes to sleep if left idle. The settings range from 1-5:
1. 30 seconds 2. 1 minute 3. 1 minute 30 seconds 4. 2 minutes 5. 2 minutes 30 seconds
Note: The longer the Screen Delay, the more it will impact on battery life.
Tones
The Buzzz has four tone options. Scroll through each one then press OK to choose the desired tone.
Note: If a longer tone is required, switch the Strobe option on (Settings Menu - page 4).
Alert Delay
If using Advanced Mode (see ‘Mode’ below), the Alert Delay is the time period before a delayed alert reactivates. The range
is between 1-5 which increases the delay by 30 second intervals:
1. 30 seconds 2. 1 minute 3. 1 minute 30 seconds 4. 2 minutes 5. 2 minutes 30 seconds
Radio
There are two options in this section - Economy and Boost.
Economy provides increased battery life but should not be used with certain devices like Door Contacts and PIRs.
Boost provides increased range and is suitable for all devices.
Note: If unsure which one to use, we recommend Boost mode.
Mode
The Buzzz has two Mode options. Standard Mode is intended to be used in a situation where only one Buzzz is required
while Advanced Mode is most suitable when more than one Buzzz is being used.
Page 3 explains how to acknowledge an alert in both modes.
In Standard Mode, an alert is acknowledged by pressing the OK button.
In Advanced Mode, an alert can be acknowledged by pressing the OK button, or the alert can be delayed, or cleared.
If the OK button is pressed, the alert will clear down.
If the Delay button is pressed, the alerts will enter a queue which can be accessed through the Active Alerts icon on the
main screen (this icon will only appear if there are pending alerts). A delayed alert will return after a pre-programmed
period (see Alert Delay above). Up to 30 alerts can be delayed if required.
The Clear button is designed to be used by a carer who can’t attend to the alert.

Maintenance
Cleaning the charging contacts on the Buzzz and Charging Base
The Buzzz and its charging base were designed to facilitate easy charging without having to deal with leads when placing
on and off charge. When the Buzzz is placed into the charger, the contacts on the Buzzz touch the pins on the base. Due to
this design, it is important to ensure that the contacts on the Buzzz and the pins on the base are clean. As the Buzzz is a
portable device, the contacts can be easily contaminated by dust, grime, crumbs, etc. There’s also a chance the pins on the
charging base can become contaminated.
To clean both the contacts on the Buzzz and the pins on the charging base, use the enclosed fibreglass cleaning pen.
Twist the top of the pen until the tip of the fibreglass brush is visible, then swipe the brush against the contacts/pins.
When finished, turn the Buzzz and charging base upside down to let any residue fall out. Please do this regularly, even if
the contacts/pins look clean, as it only takes a very small amount of contamination to disrupt charging.
This process is also explained in our YouTube video - https://youtu.be/r4eq3xV3IB8
Tip: Ensure that the end of the cleaning pen is stiff, not soft. It should be stiff as it acts like a file to scrape contamination
from the charging contacts. If the end is soft or dirty, please cut the affected part off with a pair of scissors until the end is
stiff again.
Note: Do not use the fibreglass cleaning pen on any area of the Buzzz or charging base apart from the contacts as it is an
abrasive tool and will damage non-metallic surfaces.
Intelligent battery charging and monitoring features
The Buzzz employs a traffic light system which provides informed reporting of the battery status when in and out of the
charging base. It will also produce an audible and visual notification to inform if it isn’t charging properly.
When placed in the charging base, the Buzzz should beep to confirm a connection is made and the charging process will
start. It is normal for the Buzzz to beep a few times within the first minute or so. The battery symbol should start scrolling,
indicating that it is now charging. If this doesn’t happen, please remove the Buzzz and reinsert it again into the charging
base. The battery symbol will change colour as the charging progresses, from red, to amber and finally green. It is fully
charged after around 2.5 hours, when the battery symbol turns static green. The Buzzz will also charge if it is switched off,
although there will be no indication on the screen.
The three colours of the battery symbol are red, amber and green. Red is lowest and green is highest. When the battery
symbol is red, or at the low end of amber, the Buzzz should be charged.
If the charging contacts are not clean, or the Buzzz is not making good contact with the charging base, the Buzzz should
sound an audible alert and ‘Poor Contact’ will be displayed on the screen. In this event, please clean the contacts as
described above. The contacts should also be cleaned if there are any charging issues.
Whenever possible, please avoid partial charging of the battery. Ensure the Buzzz is charged fully then recharged when the
battery is almost fully discharged, similar to how a mobile phone should be treated.
Reset Procedure
There is a reset button on the underside of the charging base. If looking at the base with the USB plug at the 12 o’clock
position, the reset button is located at the 10 o’clock position. Use the following steps to reset the Buzzz:
1. Ensure the charging base is switched on.
2. Using a paperclip or suitable instrument, press and hold the reset button for approximately 5 seconds. The blue
LEDs in the charging base should begin to flash.
3. Whilst the blue LEDs are flashing, place the Buzzz into the charging base.
4. The main screen may flash for around 15-20 seconds, after which the Buzzz is reset.
Note: This will not delete any registered devices or change any settings.

Troubleshooting FAQs
Q1: Does the Buzzz require any regular maintenance?
The charging contacts on both the Buzzz and Charging Base can sometimes gather dust, grime etc so they should be regularly
cleaned with the enclosed fibreglass cleaning pen. Twist the top of the pen until the tip of the fibreglass brush is visible, then
swipe the brush against the contacts/pins. When finished, turn the Buzzz and charging base upside down to let any residue fall
out. This should be done regularly. The cleaning process is also explained on our YouTube video - https://youtu.be/r4eq3xV3IB8
This process is explained in more detail on page 7.
Q2: Why does the Buzzz not appear to be charging?
If the Buzzz doesn’t charge, there may be some contamination on the charging contacts, or the pins on the charging base. Clean
the contacts on both the Buzzz and Charging Base as described on page 7. If the contacts have already been cleaned, try
repositioning the Buzzz into the charging base again.
Note: The Buzzz power supply and charging lead are designed specifically to work with the fast charging circuits in the Buzzz.
Please ensure that no other power supply or leads are used as this may cause issues.
Q3: Why does the Buzzz display ‘Poor Contact’ when charging?
The Buzzz is detecting a resistance in the charging circuit. Clean the contacts on both the Buzzz and Charging Base as described
on page 7. If the contacts have already been cleaned, try repositioning the Buzzz into the charging base again.
Q4: The Buzzz is behaving strangely, can I reset it?
Yes. There is a reset button on the underside of the charging base. If looking at the base with the USB plug at the 12 o’clock
position, the reset button is located at the 10 o’clock position. Use the following steps to reset the Buzzz:
1. Ensure the charging base is switched on.
2. Using a paperclip or suitable instrument, press and hold the reset button for approximately 5 seconds, the blue LEDs in the
base should begin to flash.
3. Whilst the blue LEDs are flashing, place the Buzzz in the base as you normally would to charge it.
4. The main screen may flash for around 15-20 seconds, after which the Buzzz is reset.
Note: This will not delete any registered devices or change any settings:
Q5: Why is the screen upside down?
Tap the battery icon to flip the screen upside down, and again to flip it back. This is an intentional feature which is handy when
wearing the Buzzz around the waist with the belt clip.
Q6: Why does the sounder beep and ‘Pressure On Screen’ is displayed?
This is an intentional feature to warn of something pressing on the screen.
Q7: Why is the Buzzz not activating when an alert is received?
Is the Buzzz switched on? Is Day Mode on? Check the Buzzz can receive alerts from other devices (Walk Test is useful for this).
Check transmitting device is operational too. Reset the Buzzz as described in Q4.
Q8: Why is the Buzzz not sounding when an alert is received?
Check the Sound Volume is set to higher than 0. Also check if the Ascend option is on, an alert will be silent for the first 20
seconds if Ascend is switched on.
Q9: Day Mode doesn’t seem to be working?
The Day Mode start time is the time you would like the sensor to stop alerting. The stop time is the time you would like the sensor
to start alerting. Day Mode must be switched on in both the Options menu and when registering the device too. This process is
explained in more detail on page 6.
Q10: The screen is red with a COMMS ERROR RF message, what does that mean?
This message indicates a fault with the radio receiver, meaning that it won’t receive any transmissions from devices. Try
performing a reset (Page 7). If this doesn’t resolve it, the Buzzz may need to be replaced and sent back for repair..
Q11: I’m not sure if the Buzzz has enough range to cover a whole property?
For most installations, a range test should be carried out to ensure the full property is covered. While performing the range test,
the device should be activated at the location it will be installed, i.e. if it’s a bed sensor, activate it from the bed area.
If the result of the range test proves that the property is too large for the Buzzz, we recommend using our Orion Range Extender to
boost the range of all devices. Also, all the devices in our new product range have extended range which will ensure that the
optimum coverage is possible.
