Why
Pairing the Wireless Switching Interface (On-Wall) to the right light ensures that, once paired, caregivers can quickly close an open escalation or call 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 - Wireless Switching Interface (On-Wall), must first be paired via the Nobi light in order to function properly.
Pair via the Nobi mobile app
Pairing the Wireless Switching Interface (On-Wall) 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.
