How does the button work? What does it do?

The Little Green Button lives on your computer screen, floating over your other programs. The button can be moved to suit your preferences.

To request assistance, simply double click on the Little Green Button.

Once the alarm is activated, all computers on the network (with the Little Green Button Administrator running, included with price) display an alert. This can be a security guard desk and can be on as many computers as you wish.


The Little Green Button software has many advantages over traditional hard-wired panic alarm systems:

• Easy and quick to install - the software is downloaded from our website.
• Little Green Button is unique in its subtlety. The alarm can be raised without an assailant realizing it.
• An alert is instantly available on all computers, running the administrator application, generating a very rapid initial response.
• A rapid response prevents the escalation of the incident.
• Changing room layout or use is simple, just move the PC. (it moves with your computers).
• Email server included. Get emailed or sms message when there is an alert.
• New: Change the client application exe name from the default Button.exe to a more descriptive name that explains the location of the PC and that will be transmitted to the Administrator console instead of the PC name. If the name stays Button.exe then the PC name will be sent. Make sure you keep the .exe part at the end. Depending on your computer view settings you might not see the .exe part at all.
