Step 1:
Turn on the Live Button
Step 2:
Charge the Live Button
Before using the Live Button, be sure to charge it.
How to read the Live Button battery level?
A blinking ring of green light indicates that
the charge level is sufficient. The speed of
this blinking varies according to the Live Button
configuration that was completed beforehand
by your fleet manager.
In contrast, when the ring
blinks orange, it is necessary
to recharge the Live Button.
How to charge the Live Button?
2 possibilities exist according to the equipment chosen by your fleet
manager.
Charge one Live Button: this operation is done with the USB cable.
It entails plugging the micro USB into the Live Button and then plugging
the USB into a power source (PC, charger, etc.).
Charge multiple Live Buttons simultaneously: this operation is done
with the USB cables, the HUB, and the power supply. Plug each
Live Button into the HUB via a USB cable. Connect the HUB to a
charger which you then plug into an electrical outlet.
During the time that the button is charging, the ring of light blinks orange.
Once the Live Button is charged, the ring of light turns off.
Charging time is approximately 2 hours.
The Live Button has a 700 mAh
battery.
Battery life varies according to the
frequency of use and the number
of times that the button is pushed.
See indications below (that have no
contractual value):
For the cellular version (GSM), the
battery life index* is evaluated at
6 months to 1 year, for a use equi-
valent to one button push per day.
For the LPWAN version (LoRa),
the battery life index* is evaluated
at 1 to 2 years maximum, for a
use equivalent to one button push
per day.
* Value indicated has no contractual value.

How to send a message?
After pushing the Live Button, a message is
sent via the network.
During the transmission of a message,
the ring of light will blink green (the brightness
varies).
The transmission takes around ten seconds.
If the transmission takes longer than a minute,
a transmission error is generated.
Please note: if needed, you are able to send a
new message while the previous message is being
sent.

Step 4:
Use the Live Button
Push the Live Button Send a message
How to know if a message was sent successfully?
The Live Button blinks green in order to confirm that a message
was successfully sent across the network.
If there is a problem transmitting the message, the Live Button
blinks red.
This means:
Either the action was not completed because the button was not
pushed correctly.
- the short push was too slow or too fast
- the multi-push involved too many or not enough pushes
- the long push was too slow or too fast
- the rapid movement of the button was too slow or too fast
Or the message could not be sent on the network (due to a
network problem, insufficient network coverage, etc.).
