Bodet Harmonys IP 4 Button Box

The Bodet Harmonys 4 Button Box provides fast manual control of bells, prerecorded messages, alerts and other programmed actions within a compatible Harmonys IP system. Designed for locations such as reception desks, security offices, administration areas and control rooms, its four configurable buttons give authorised users immediate access to frequently required commands.

Power over Ethernet simplifies installation, while network connectivity allows the unit to communicate with compatible Bodet SIGMA and Harmonys equipment across the site’s existing IP infrastructure.

Fast Manual Alert and Message Triggering

Each of the four buttons can be configured for a specific action, allowing commonly used functions to be activated without navigating through software or other control interfaces.

Typical functions can include:

• Lockdown or emergency alerts
• Intrusion warnings
• Prerecorded voice messages
• Bells and melodies
• Break or factory bells
• Intervention requests
• Predefined calls
• STOP commands

This makes the controller particularly useful where staff may need to activate an alert or routine announcement quickly.

Four Fully Configurable Buttons

The Bodet Harmonys 4 Button Box provides four customisable keys that can be programmed using compatible SIGMA software.

Administrators can assign individual actions to each button according to site requirements. An audible alert can also be associated with a voice message, allowing a warning tone and spoken information to form part of the same notification process.

When used with compatible four-button extension modules, the system can be expanded to support up to 16 different actions.

Independent or SIGMA Operation

Two operating modes are supported:

• Independent mode
• SIGMA mode

Operating mode and associated functions can be configured through SIGMA software according to the requirements of the installation.

When integrated with a compatible SIGMA master clock, commands from the button box can be used to initiate programmed actions and trigger audio through compatible Harmonys speakers.

Manual STOP Function

A dedicated STOP function can be configured to manually stop melodies currently playing in one or more configured zones.

This provides authorised users with a straightforward way to interrupt an active audio event when required.

PoE Network Installation

The controller connects to the IP network and receives power using Power over Ethernet (PoE), reducing the need for a separate local power connection.

This simplifies installation in locations where Ethernet infrastructure is already available.

Web-Based Configuration and Management

An embedded web server provides access to product identification and advanced configuration settings.

SIGMA software can also be used from a central computer to define the actions associated with individual buttons, including alert types, STOP functions and other prerecorded messages.

Multiple button boxes can be deployed at different locations where additional manual trigger points are required.
