DeviceSimplePack 1.4 and newer or SimplePack Plus
ManufacturerSimpleHW
Use casesUse single click, double click or long press (3 – 6 secs.). No arming or disarming. When clicked daily, the battery lasts for ten years.

Typical cases: support for elders, kids, emergency buttons in tunnels or other remote locations, calling the service, and other emergency situations where you do not want to rely on GSM/mobile functionality/batteries/data availability.

Recommended subscription planSILVER+ (50 uplinks/1 downlink) will be sufficient in most cases. If you need changing device settings more frequently or send more messages, we recommend more flexible subscription plan like GOLD+ or PLATINUM+.
Specific settingsFor this device mode, you can set:

  • On/off LED diode (for energy savings)
  • Remote device update on heartbeat
  • Heartbeat period [hours]
ActivationFirst, complete registration of your device at I/O Frog and then activate SimplePack using extra long press (about 10s). LED diode starts rapid blinking. When blinking stops, device is activated and connected to network.

If you change any device parameter in application, this new setup has to be also transferred to device. Application itself cannot force device to download new settings, only the device can initiate it. After updating new parameters, please, update your device by extra long press (about 10s) or via heartbeat forced downlink. Successful loading is confirmed by LED diode for several seconds.

After activation or mode change, arm your device by pressing the button or you can force arming with downlink (using force/keep operational status parameter).
