Frequently-asked questions
FINCH is a compact LoRaWAN and BLE wearable panic button designed for indoor personnel safety. When activated, it sends an emergency event over LoRaWAN, while BLE-based location information can help identify the user’s position through a compatible positioning and monitoring system.
FINCH suits hospitals, schools, hotels, offices, retail, and care homes, anywhere staff working alone or facing aggressive situations need a fast, discreet way to call for help.
FINCH scans nearby BLE beacons and reports them over LoRaWAN, and TEKTELIC LOCUS converts that into a room- or zone-level location. During an alert, FINCH switches to high-frequency reporting so responders can follow the person’s movements.
FINCH offers 5+ years in Tracker Mode at hourly reporting (SF7), about 3 years at SF10, and 16+ months in Beacon Mode, depending on configuration.
A dedicated panic button allows users to request assistance with a single press, without unlocking a smartphone or opening an application. FINCH communicates through a LoRaWAN network rather than relying on the user’s smartphone connection, making it suitable for facilities with dedicated IoT coverage. Alert delivery depends on network availability and the connected monitoring platform.
Choose FINCH for indoor environments (IP30); choose ROBIN for outdoor use, with an IP67 enclosure and longer battery life.
