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.

1.1 Supported platforms:

Check with your Monitoring Center if your device is compatible with this application.

Smartphone.

2. SETTING UP YOUR SMARTPANICS DEVICE

2.1 REGISTRATION TO THE SERVICE

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.

2.1.1. Special permissions for Android:

To continue with the registration on an Android device, you must


"Accept" all the requests automatically made by the application when
you start and choose a language. These permissions allow SmartPanics
to use some device hardware tools. By authorizing the 7 permissions
that Android asks the application will be able to:

• Access the location of the device by GPS.

• Take pictures and record videos from the camera of the device.

• Record audio with the microphone of the device.

• Access the device contacts list.

• Send and receive SMS messages from the device.

• Make phone calls from the device without closing the application.

• Access pictures and multimedia content from the device gallery.

• 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:

>> Settings> Applications> SmartPanicsNG> Permissions

• 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.

SmartPanics APP

• 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.

2.1.2. Special permissions for iOS

In the "iOS" operating system, there are two ways to configure the different
hardware tools used by the SmartPanics application.

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.

5.4 Alarm NOT sent

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.

12. Neighborhood mode

The "Neighborhood Mode" is a layer of customization that allows starting the SmartPanics
application in a reduced version, intended for users who use cooperative security systems,
belonging to the same community, or for sending specific events that do not necessarily involve a
risk to the user or his goods.

When this function is enabled, the user will only have access to the "My Alarms" and "My Alerts"
functions menu.

• In case your SmartPanics application does not have all the functions enabled, contact your
service provider.

13. Here I am

The "Here I am" function allows notifying members of the same group about the activity of the user
sending the notification.

Thus, it will be possible for a member of a group group (children) to notify the administrators
(parents) of their current location and also to add multimedia content to help having more
information about the user's location.

Remember that the notifications of the "Here I am" event will be sent through the PUSH
services of SmartPanics and will only be able to be seen by the administrators.
