Primary Features include:

  • Renaming the Beacon

  • Triggering an Audible alert tone (requires phone to not be in silent mode)

  • Triggering a haptic (Vibrating) alert

  • Setting a delay between the initial alert above and External (Text and Phone Call) Actions

  • Calling a pre-determined number (911, Lawyer’s office, Parent, etc)

Once the Alerts are all set for your beacon, slide the “SAVE” Slider on the bottom of the screen to the right. Your beacon should now show up on the main page and be ready for activation. If you would like to configure additional Beacons (Long press, or multiple CarrySmart Beacons), simply go back through the registration process.

Arming and Disarming
