PGST SOS button: instant emergency alert
The PGST SOS button is a personal safety accessory designed for emergency situations. One press sends an immediate alert signal to the PGST alarm panel, which activates the siren and notifies your emergency contacts by phone call or SMS. It is wireless and communicates via radio directly with the panel.

FAQ — PGST SOS button
Does the PGST SOS button work without an alarm panel?
No. The SOS button must be paired with a PGST panel (PG103, PG106, PG107, or PG108) to function. The panel processes the signal and triggers alerts.
Can I programme multiple emergency contacts?
Yes. The PGST panel allows you to programme multiple phone numbers to be called or notified when the SOS button is pressed. The number of contacts depends on your panel model.
Is the PGST SOS button waterproof?
Check the specifications of your chosen model for its water resistance rating. For bathroom use, verify the IP rating before installation.
What is the radio range of the PGST SOS button?
Range depends on the environment (walls, obstacles). Perform a range test from all intended locations before finalising placement.

Pair the SOS button with the PGST PG103 alarm panel for complete home protection. Secure entries with the PGST door sensor. Add the PGST indoor siren for audible deterrence.
PGST SOS Button: Instant Emergency Alert at Your Fingertips
The PGST SOS button is a personal emergency call device that triggers an alert in under a second with a single press. Compact and lightweight, it can be worn on the wrist as a bracelet, around the neck, or placed in strategic locations around the home: bathroom, bedroom or kitchen. When triggered, the PGST panel sequentially calls the emergency numbers you have programmed and sends SMS alerts — without requiring an internet connection or Wi-Fi.
It is particularly suited to elderly people living alone, people with limited mobility, or anyone who wants a reliable means of calling for help quickly in the event of a fall, a medical episode or a security concern. The button works exclusively with a PGST control panel (PG103, PG106, PG107 or PG108) — it has no independent calling capability without one.
Frequently Asked Questions — PGST SOS Button
Can the alarm be triggered accidentally in a pocket?
The PGST SOS button is designed to minimise accidental triggering. The button is typically recessed or protected by a raised rim that prevents unintentional activation through casual contact. Some models require a sustained press of 2–3 seconds to trigger the alert, avoiding false alarms from brief accidental presses. If an accidental trigger does occur, most PGST panels allow a rapid cancellation via the keypad or app before the emergency calls are placed.
How long does the SOS button battery last?
The PGST SOS button runs on a very low-consumption battery. With normal use — a few test transmissions per month — battery life is typically 12–24 months depending on the model. The PGST panel continuously monitors the SOS button’s battery charge and sends you a notification alert when it approaches the critical threshold, giving you time to replace it before any failure occurs. It is recommended to test the button monthly to confirm it is functioning correctly.
