Duress button on the Ascom Myco

Ascom Myco smartphone starts a MultiBel Emergency Call with one press

MultiBel is an AI platform for safety and resilience. With a single press of the duress button, colleagues or an alarm receiving centre are alerted. This simple action significantly increases workplace safety.

Seamless integration between MultiBel and Ascom Myco

MultiBel can be connected to a wide range of hardware and software. Before making an integration available, it is thoroughly tested. Previously, the duress buttons on the Samsung Xcover and Spectralink were released for use with MultiBel. Now, we are adding the prominently placed alarm button on top of the Ascom Myco smartphone as well.

The duress button as the starting point for a scenario

The MultiBel app offers various functions for personal security: interval checks, motionless detection, fall detection, and an emergency button for aggression. To start an aggression scenario, a button must be activated. Customers often choose a small external bluetooth emergency button that can be worn in different ways. With an Ascom Myco smartphone, however, you can use the button on the device itself to start a scenario.

This means:

• No need to open the app
• No separate alarm button required
• Immediate alerting with just one press

A small button, but with a big impact, thanks to the integration with MultiBel.

Imagine: a healthcare worker feels threatened. With a single press of the alarm button on top of the Ascom Myco, an alert is immediately sent to nearby colleagues or to an alarm centre. MultiBel records who responds, can establish voice and/or listening connections, and knows who is available. This ensures the worker feels supported and that help is activated instantly.

Where is the Ascom Myco used?

We developed the link with the Ascom Myco at the request of our healthcare customers. But organisations in industries such as manufacturing and production, where the Myco is also used, benefit directly from this solution.

An additional advantage of the Myco is the ability to integrate with monitoring systems. Because MultiBel runs as a separate app, existing processes and applications on the smartphone remain unaffected.

Ready to enhance personal security?

Does your organisation already work with the Ascom Myco, or are you considering introducing this smartphone? Together with MultiBel, you’ll have a future-proof solution that guarantees safety and reliability. Let’s explore how this can be applied within your organisation.
