BusyBox Support: How To Use The BusyBox Button 

The Button blinks a green ring a few times when the command is executed. If it keeps trying (lights going around in a circle) and if the Bluetooth is blocked and doesn’t connect and execute the command, you get a red flashing ring. I hope that helps.

Hey Devin, I think you mean the BusyBox Button showed the sign status red or green, right? We use red and green now to show "green" command executed and "red" command did not get executed. Bluetooth is a finicky beast. We have firmware updates coming to allow you to have the ring pulse the color of the sign when it's on, but it'll burn through more battery. I'll share this with the developers and see if we can add it as an option for a future product release. Thanks!!

THIS. I turn the sign on and forget to turn it off. The button should light up as a reminder.

@@richardrobinette2914 If you connect the BusyBox to your calendar it’ll turn on and off automatically. Not sure if that helps, but that’s how I use my BusyBox most of the time. The Button will have the ability to stay on in a future firmware version, it’ll be a user choice, but it will be a battery burner if you turn it on. Those lights will use a lot more power so you probably won’t get 6~12 months on the battery. I have mine setup so that one click is “ON” and double click is “OFF” so if I’m not sure, I can just send the command and the BusyBox will change status. That’s way easier for my brain to handle if I’m not sure. Email our tech team for more tips and tricks too at support at busyboxsign.com

@BusyBox I would do that but my company won't let me install the software

The BusyBox Button is s bluetooth device in order for it to run a long time on two coin cell batteries. That impacts it’s ability to send signals over long distances and through dense objects. It’s definitely not made to work long range. No bluetooth item is meant to work long range. We have a WiFi option coming but for now, using integrations like Google Calendar, Zoom, use WiFi so they are a better option. WiFi drains more power from the BusyBox so you’ll need to recharge weekly for the BBS and every other day for the BBD or run the units plugged in. Sorry for the confusion on the Button. It’s definitely not for every setup. It tend to get 5 star or 1 star reviews and not much in between due to it’s Bluetooth limitations.

@@BusyBoxSign Just give it a USBc jack.
