The SmartPanics application works as a virtual emergency keypad that allows sending Emergency,
Assistance or Fire events reporting the exact location to the monitoring center. It must be installed
on the mobile device and will be available for the iOS and Android platforms in their corresponding
online stores.
Check with your Monitoring Center if your device is compatible with this application.
Select the SmartPanics icon from the desktop or from the launcher of your
Smartphone.
The setting information to use SmartPanics will be provided by the Monitoring Center you have
subscribed.
The monitoring center can send the setting information to the end user in "Text" format by an e-
mail including the setting and download links or by sending an image supporting "QR Code".
• Once you have received the setting information, you can open the application for the first
time to begin the communication tests.
• First, you must set the language of the platform, selecting the corresponding option and then
pressing the "Next" button.
• Take pictures and record videos from the camera of the device.
• Make phone calls from the device without closing the application.
• Press the "Allow" option to enable each permission requested by the application.
• You can manually access to the permissions in order to use the hardware tools of the
Android device by accessing to:
• Storage: Activated
Allows accessing to the gallery of the device and attaching images from it while
sending an event.
• Contacts: Activated
Access the contact list of the device from the application.
• Camera: Activated
Allow using the camera (front or back) of the device to record video clips or take
pictures while sending an event.
• Microphone: Activated
Allows recording sounds with the microphone of the device while sending an
event.
• SMS: Activated
Allows sending text messages from the application. When the device does not
have a WIFI signal or a data network, text messaging can be used to report events
with SmartPanics.
• Telephone: Activated
Allows using the device's call tool from the same application while sending an
event.
• Location: Activated
SmartPanics was designed to always have positioning reports in order to enhace
all its functionality. If the permissions for the "location" are deactivated, the APP
will not be able to provide positioning reports and will never send reports to the
central.
Once you have activated the location permissions, you must configure the option called
"Location method".
Finally, select the "High precision" option. When you select the high precision mode, you allow your
device to determine your location through several networks, in all possible ways, with Wi-Fi, GPS,
and mobile networks. All using Google's location services to get a good positioning.
This way, as its own name indicates, it is the most accurate of all and offers a better experience than
the rest, but its battery consume and also its excessive control towards the user (since all his
movements are registered) are its biggest disadvantages.
The names on the settings menu of Android devices may vary, depending on the manufacturer and
version of Android software used.
In the "iOS" operating system, there are two ways to configure the different
hardware tools used by the SmartPanics application.
• Once the SmartPanics application is enabled on the device, the iOS operating system will
request the user authorization to use these hardware tools, such as: Camera,
microphone, GPS location, notifications, updates in the background, or the data network.
• Press the option "Always authorization" every time so that the function is permanently
enabled within the APP.
It is also possible to enable all these permissions in iOS manually, entering the iOS settings menu
and then accessing the permissions of the applications, there you have to select the SmartPanics
NG application and then enable the permissions on the screen shown below:
• Location: Always
SmartPanics was designed to always have positioning reports in order to enhace all its
functionality. If the "never" option is chosen, the APP will not be able to use the
positioning function and will never send the location of the device to the monitoring
center.
• Microphone: On
Activating this permission allows the events of my alarms or my alerts to send audio
files recorded with the microphone of the telephone.
• Camera: On
Activating this permission allows the events of my alarms or my alerts to send pictures
or videos recorded with the back or front camera of the device.
• Notifications
Allows defining which warning mechanisms will trigger the PUSH notifications sent to
the user from the SoftGuard system, for example: sound, vibration, balloons, and
other.
Automatic notifications to each SmartPanics user are defined on the Notifications tab
of each account.
• Background updating: On
APPs run in the foreground when they are on the screen of the device and in the background
when they are not seen on screen. SmartPanics needs authorization to run in the background
when using the following functions: tracking, speed control, battery, life beat of the APP,
geofences, on my way, and more.
• Cellphone Data: On
If the use of cellphone data is not enabled, the APP will only communicate events or
positioning reports when WIFI is available.
2.1.3 QR settings.
The service provider can send an e-mail for the users (clients) to configure their SmartPanics
application without the need to interact with a monitoring operator.
• First, you will receive an e-mail similar to the following one, which you must open from your
smartphone, in order to follow the link on it that will provide you with the connection data.
• If you have previously downloaded your SmartPanics application, you will be asked to open
the link there.
• Then you must select the language you prefer, press the "Next" button and the connection
data will be automatically configured.
• By pressing the "I do not have a provider" button, you will be able
to access a webpage allowing you to register in order to download the
application for free.

The SmartPanics mobile application will try to send the alarm event using
the most efficient communication link.
By default, it will try to send the event through the WiFi network, and if
this is not available, it will try to send the event using the operator's data
network (3G / 4G / LTE, etc.).
If it is not possible to establish communication over the data network
(WiFi / GPRS), the application will try to send the event using the GSM
network, ie by SMS.
Take into consideration that, in order to send the SMS effectively, your
monitoring center must have the right equipment to receive events using
this mean and the notification function by SMS must be enabled in your
SmartPanics application.
To enable the sending of events by SMS, please check << 3.6 >> on this
manual.
• If for some unforeseen reason your mobile phone is "temporarily" unable to communicate with the
monitoring center, SmartPanics will retry until you can deliver the event while you are on the "alarm"
window (see top image).
• When this happens, you can see a warning message on the screen of your mobile phone indicating
that your alarm could not be sent.
• If you keep this window open when the communication is recovered, the alarm event will be sent
and you will be able to continue using the application normally.
Remember that if the event is "Finished" before it is delivered to the monitoring center, it
will not be notified about its emergency, nor will it be able to process any multimedia file
that may have been attached.
