BOP Button is an emergency alert button that is designed to immediately signal for help or
assistance in emergency situations. When activated, it sends a distress signal and activates
a 2-way communication to our BOP Response Centre.
When the BOP Button is pressed, it triggers an alarm or distress signal that is transmitted
to our BOP Response Centre. Our BOP Response Centre is staffed with trained individuals who
will contact you through the BOP Button and take appropriate action, such as contacting
emergency services or dispatching assistance. This service is only available in Singapore.
BOP Button can be used for medical emergencies, or personal safety concerns.
At this moment, we are only offering one type of BOP Button. More types of BOP Buttons will
be released in the future. Works are currently in progress.
If you accidentally activate the button, you can quickly press the cancel button at the
side. Alternatively, if you failed to press the cancel button, remain calm, and wait for a
response from the BOP Response Centre. They will attempt to contact you to confirm on your
situation.
Respond promptly to their inquiries to avoid unnecessary dispatching of emergency services.
The automated voice in the BOP Button supports English, Mandarin, Malay, Tamil, Cantonese,
Hokkien, and Teo Chew.

Installation and Maintenance
BOP Buttons are commonly installed on the wall, around the house, where they are within easy
reach, such as the living room, bedrooms, bathrooms, and kitchen.
The BOP Button requires LTE network to connect to the server. We recommend avoiding enclosed
areas with weak signal strengths. Check against your mobile phone for the best signal
strength locations.
BOP Button can be easily installed in two methods. One method is to install using the
mounting plate, and the other is to install directly onto the wall.
By using the mounting plate, you will need to screw the mounting plate into the wall before
sticking the BOP Button to the mounting plate.
No maintenance is required. You can leave the BOP Button alone with peace of mind. Our
system at the backend will check if your BOP Button is online and will alert us when your
BOP Button is offline. Our battery is designed to last for 3 years.
