For the technical configuration of BadgeR+ Wearable Panic Buttons, Wall Mounted Panic Buttons, and Computer Panic Buttons, IT departments must identify and upload all access points (APs) across the network into the 911Cellular portal. This step is critical to maintain reliable connectivity. 

IT Teams can complete this process using one of three methods: 

• Access Point Import
• Crowd Sourcing
• Solo-Sourcing 

3 Methods to Upload Access Points: 

1. Access Point Import: In the 911Cellular Portal, Manage Devices → WiFi Access Points, click Upload Access Points to download the approved import template and import all AP data. 
2. Crowd-Sourcing: If your district opts in to using the Computer Panic Buttons, the Computer Panic Button software can crowdsource all AP information during software deployment. 
3. Solo-Sourcing: For districts unable to provide a comprehensive export of data, AP data can be captured using a Wi-Fi-enabled laptop with the Computer Panic Button software to scan for the strongest Wi-Fi signals. The software prompts the user to assign Security Zones and locations as they walk through the building, ensuring accurate AP data collection​.
