CB932 Wireless Help Button
Programming and Installation Instructions
Introduction
The CB932 is a member of the Global Solutions Family. Indyme GSF
products operate in the 800MHz – 900MHz frequency spectrum. The
CB932 is a 1-button, GSF help button designed for use at customer
service or sales floor locations. GSF Help Buttons are designed to
communicate with a GSF Access Point. GSF products are not
compatible with legacy devices.
Hardware
(2) #6 x 3/4” Phillips screw
(2) #6 plastic wall anchor
(2) strips, double sided adhesive
(1) package alcohol swap
(2) AA alkaline battery
Programming Parameters
GSF products MUST be properly programmed to establish communication. Programming parameters MUST
match your configuration. The default settings are for testing purposes only and should not be used. Failure
to properly program your help button and access point will prevent your devices from working.
GSF Help buttons have three primary programming parameters; Netcode, Address and Operating Mode.
These MUST be programmed in the correct order to establish communication and ensure proper operation.
Identify the parameters for your configuration before you begin programming.
Using the programming instructions below set the following parameters in order.
Netcode – unique identification code for the installation environment.
Address – alarm number associated with a control unit alarm event.
Operating Mode – defines how the help button will respond when activated.
Programming a help button requires a series of button presses. The specific buttons vary by device type.
On the CB932, SET is the “large button in the middle” and RESET is “the black outer cover”. The
assurance LED is red and is located BEHIND to the SET button. This LED will flash during programming
to indicate your progress.

GSF Help button Programming
GSF Help buttons function in the 800MHz – 900MHz frequency spectrum. These wireless transceivers,
communicate with the CB951 Access Point. Each help button MUST be programmed with the correct
parameters to match the CB951 Access Point(s). Help buttons use a hierarchy based menu structure.
You must enter the Programming Menu first, to select the desired submenu. Each submenu may have
one or more options available. These options are used to assign specific operational characteristics to
the help button. Review the submenus/options before you begin programming. The submenus/options
will vary by help button model.
Enter the Programming Menu
Press and hold the RESET button until the assurance LED flashes one time.
Press and hold the SET button, until the assurance LED flashes two times.
Press and hold the RESET button, until the assurance LED flashes three times.
The help button is now in the Programming Menu mode, proceed to the desired submenu.
Menu-1: Address Programming
Assigns the help button to a corresponding alarm event programmed in the control unit. A help button
address is a four digit number from 0001 to 4095. Leading zeros are required.
After entering the Programming Menu;
Press the SET button one time for Menu-1, RESET once to save.
The assurance LED will flash one time to indicate Menu-1 was selected.
Use SET and RESET to program the 4-digit address as follows;
SET = digits 1-9, RESET = digit 0 and SAVE. Leading zeros are required
For example, programAlarm-0802 as follows:
Press RESET once to represent the zero. (0)
Press SET eight times, RESET once to save. (8)
Press RESET once to represent the zero. (0)
Press SET two times, RESET once to save. (2)
Note: When the RESET button is pressed to save the 4th digit, the assuranceLED will flash to indicate the
address that was entered. The assurance LED will indicate digit zero by a long flash. (approximately 1-
sec.)

After entering the Programming Menu;
Press the SET button two times for Menu-2, RESET once to save.
The LED will flash twice to indicate Menu-2 was selected.
The LED will then begin flashing. ¼ second on, 1 second off. This indicates that the help button is
requesting a Netcode. When the help button receives a Netcode, it will flash the assurance LED
rapidly for approximately 3 seconds and then it will exit Menu-2. If no Netcode is received
within 5 minutes, the help button will exit Menu-2.
Menu-3: Operating Mode
Assigns the help button operating characteristics; timeout duration, RESET signal and number of active
buttons. Although set at the help button, the Operating Mode can be reset and overridden by the
control unit. Operating Modes will vary by help button type, below are the default modes for this help
button.
After entering the Programming Menu;
Press the SET button three times for Menu-3, RESET once to save.
The assurance LED will flash three times to indicate Menu-3 was selected.
Press the SET button to select a Help button Operating Mode: <1, 2, …>, RESET once to save.
The assurance LED will flash to indicate the selected Operating Mode.
Mode 1 - Standard 5-min timeout, No Reset
Press the SET button to trigger the alarm state; the LED will flash for 5 minutes, then extinguish
with no reset sent. The RESET button will send a reset signal for the active channel.
Mode 2 - Standard 30-sec timeout, No Reset
Same as above, with 30-second timeout.

Installation
1. Identify all programming characteristics before you begin programming or installation.
Netcode
Help button Addresses
Help button Modes
2. Program the required parameters into the CB951 Access Points first.
3. Use the first CB951 Access Point to clone the Netcode to all of the help buttons. This will ensure the
same Netcode is being assigned to all devices. You may also clone the Netcode from a known
working help button to all other help buttons. The Netcode cannot be cloned from a help button to
an access point.
4. Program the Alarm Address and Mode of each help button.
5. Install the help button in accordance with store policy, Indyme work order and/or Americans with
Disabilities Act guidelines where applicable.
The CB932 Help button uses two AA-size 1.5-volt alkaline batteries. Always use the same type of battery
for optimum performance. DO NOT use rechargeable batteries in the help button. To replace the
battery, remove the help button from its mounting location. Turn the help button over to the back of
the help button. Remove the old batteries from the battery holders. Install the new alkaline batteries.
The help button does not lose the programmed characteristics when the batteries are removed.
Location Considerations
Help buttons are typically located at cash registers, service counters or other areas in which customers
require assistance. Stores and installers should be aware of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)
requirements for accessibility.
Help buttons use a low powered transmitter, and operate best with a clear line of sight to the nearest
receiver. Tall shelving, merchandise and metal signs can block or reduce the help button signal.
Help Button Assembly
The help button can be disassembled using a flat-blade screwdriver. Find the slot on the outside of the
unit, insert the screwdriver blade and gently twist until the cover pops off. The mounting plate can then
be removed in the same fashion.
