4 min task
What
This self-powered Nobi button lets care staff interact directly with the Nobi Smart Light using a single press.
If there is no active escalation, pressing the button snoozes fall detection for 15 minutes. If there is an active escalation, pressing the button closes the escalation and snoozes fall detection for 15 minutes.

Why
Pairing the self-powered button as a presence button to the right light ensures that, once paired, caregivers can quickly close an open escalation or call request or snooze Nobi fall detection for 15 minutes—right from the room. This prevents new alarms from being triggered during assistance. A peripheral, in this case the Presence Button - Nobi Button (self-powered), must first be paired via the Nobi light in order to function properly.
Pair via the Nobi mobile app
Pairing the Nobi Button (self-powered) is done through the Nobi mobile app. Pairing is easy. Just follow the wizard to complete the connection. The button should be physically near the light during the process.
